Are you using e-mail to promote your site or service?
Then you can increase the results you get without having
to do more work just by using an autoresponder!
Fact is the the majority of people will not respond to an ad
when they read it the first time! You have to stay in contact!
You will get more sales when you follow up!
Now this doesn`t mean that you send them the same ad
over and over. That`s not a way to close a sale! Instead you
will create a series of differnent messages!
First message could be your normal ad! Just send it out to
your leads as your doing now! The second message could be send
2 days later and reminding people of the benefits of your offer!
You can also add a free bonus to make it harder to refuse again!
Put a time limit on the bonus! The third message should be send
right before the bonus runs out! Remind the people to join now to
claim a bonus! Fourth message can be send a week later. Tell
people how sorry you are that they missed your bonus offer and
renew it! But just for 24 hours! Increase the value of your
bonus this time!
You can of course send more follow up messages than 4. Its also
a good idea to put a free gift into every messasge! If your readers
get valuable content with your ads they will keep reading your series!
Now this sounds like a lot of work, doesn`t it? You`re wrong!
Of course it would be a lot of work if you had to mail out the
messages manually and keep track of who`s to get which message!
That`s why you will use an automated system! An autoresponder!
Instead of giving out your web-site URL in your ads, you put a link
to your autoresponder! Now prospects can request more information
by simply sending an e-mail to your autoresponder adress! The
responder will then send your messages in the order and
timely manner that you did specify! Automatically! You just advertise
the way you`re used to and your autoresponder does all the work for
you with following up your prospects until they buy!

How to Use Signature Files to Give Your Email The Personal Touch That SELLSAlvin Apple
If you have a home business, then you’re probably constantly
concerned with getting your name and your business information
out there. You probably send out a lot of e-mails, post on
message boards, and submit articles to business e-zines. These
are excellent ways to get your name out there, but are you taking
full advantage of the visibility these forums create?
One of the best ways of creating new business is to include a
Signature File with everything you post, send or submit. What
exactly is a sig file? It’s that little bit of bio information
at the end of an e-mail, article or posting, usually a sentence
or
two with your url. This is your opportunity to let people know
who you are and to direct them to your business. If they liked
what you wrote, then they can immediately to your site and
find out more about your product or service.
Now you may already include your url at the end of your
correspondence, most business people do. That’s great, but is it
enough? Not quite. Of course it’s great to have your url so
that anyone who’s interested in what you’re saying can
immediately check out your business site, but wouldn’t they be
more likely to click if you included a short description of what
you do? The trick to a catchy sig file, is that one sentence
that makes you stand out. For example, rather than closing an e-
mail or posting with
Jerry Jensen
http://playpianoperfectly.com
try something a little more descriptive and catchy, like

or take it one step further,
Jerry Jensen
Jerry can answer all your questions about playing the piano
professionally. E-mail him at Jerryj@ivories.com, or check out
his web site: http://playpianoperfectly.com
By adding that one line to your signature, you can totally change
the customer’s perception of your business, and that little extra
bit of information could be the difference between a trickle of
new business and a flood.
So you see, it’s not enough to just give an address, you’ve got
to give people a reason to click. You’ve got to spark an
interest in what you do. By creating a short, catchy and
descriptive sig file, you can really put yourself ahead of the
pack. There’s money to be made out there if you just know how to
do it.
