Which Autoresponder is the Best to build your Home Based Business list?

Once you have the methods to generate thousands of targeted visitors, you absolutely MUST set up a follow up system. If you are not following up, you are losing a TON of money. Allow me to explain:

Not everyone who visits your website is going to sign up or buy from you immediately. There are people who do not act immediately when they see a good thing.  There are also people out there that will talk themselves out of any form of success. Get yourself an autoresponder. I have significantly increased my conversion rate by doing so,  as people will often come back weeks and even months later and sign up!
Auto-responders are essential.

If you do not know what an auto-responder is, you must learn now. You will need to learn how to use one in order to automatically follow up with people via email. Statistically, a potential customer needs to see your ad an average of 7-12 times before they are confident enough to make a purchase. An auto-responder series will follow up with your leads via email and substantially increase your conversion rate.

You will need to choose between an autoresponder that you 'rent' on a monthly basis, or one that you buy and host yourself. The review of autoresponders below will help you to decide what autoresponder is best for you.

Autoresponders paid for with a monthly subscription

Aweberoffers affordable monthly subscriptions for their auto-responder services. They have more features than are usually available with your standard auto-responder, and they have free version to check them out. This is the autoresponder of choice for top marketers. If you intend tocreate your own capture pages and build your list, this is the responder of choice. This is the responder I currently use in most of my campaigns.

iContact
is another choice. Similar to AWeber, but with one significant advantage. IContact will allow you to import subscribers that you generated in another system. You can import them and begin to send them mail without them having to confirm that they want to get your mail. This is not to say it is something you would import purchased leads into. But if you generate leads with some kind of affiliate system, you can import them into iContact and mail to them.

Autoresponder software you buy and host

I personally use Autoresponse Plusto import the leads I have generated from the various affiliate programs I promote. This allows me to email them without having to send them a confirmation email. I can follow up with them FOREVER, or until they opt-out. You would be surprised to know how many people have been on my list for YEARS before joining me in my primary business.

I host my Autoresponse Plus at Host Gator. When you buy the licence for the software, they will install it on your server for free. You then have ultimate control over your list.

It is imperative that you learn to use your auto-responder to automatically follow up with your potential customers. Learn to advertise your home based business effectively and use an autoresponder series to follow up -- you will produce sales. Leave off the autoresponder, and I cannot say the same.
