Without  customers your business won't last very long. To attract customers you  need to generate lots of traffic. If your visitors don't convert into  buyers you'll lose your customer base. One of the best methods of  traffic conversion is to follow-up on potential customers using auto  responders.&lt;div id="body"&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How auto responders work to generate business...&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;When a potential customer visits your sales page several things occur such as:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;buy the product&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;read and never return&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;say "I'll think about it" and don't return&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;say "I'll come back later" but forget&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;get distracted by other activities&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;Out all the  reasons mentioned above only a very small percentage of visitors will  buy your product the first time they visit. The majority leave and never  return (even though they intend to). A few return because they  bookmarked your sales page. Most first-time visitors would benefit by  receiving a series of e-mails reminding them about your product. A  sequential auto responder enables you to automatically send an unlimited  number of e-mail messages at pre-determined times. Instead of only  hearing about your product one time your potential customer receives a  series of reminders that cuts through their distractions. It takes at  least 7 follow-up e-mails to generate a sale. The great benefit of an  auto responder is once you've got it set up you can forget about it. It  automatically takes care of the follow-up process.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;3 ways auto responders generate business&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;1. Build customer value&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If  a  customer senses you care about them by providing answers to their  most frustrating problems they'll look forward to receiving your  content. Instead of going for instant sales generated by impulse buyers  you "drip feed" information to them using your autoresponder. Each  follow-up message should contain in-depth information about your  product. This helps your potential customer to make an informed decision  so they'll be more inclined to open their wallets. If you continue to  take care of your customers even after they have bought something you'll  have a customer for life. Customers who've already purchased tend to  buy again.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;2. Save time&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If you tried to  handle the follow-up process manually it would eat up a lot of your  time. Your time could be better spent creating more products and  generating traffic. An auto responder helps save time by automatically  following-up on potential customers and converting them into buyers.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;An  autoresponder also saves time by pre-scheduling delivery of  newsletters. For instance if you can't remember when to send your  newsletter simply load your newsletters into your autoresponder and  pre-schedule them to be sent automatically each week or for the next 3  weeks or on specific dates.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;3. Generate business on autopilot&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Every  product you create should be marketed using an auto responder because  it will increase your sales. Most professional services allow you to set  up unlimited auto responders and have unlimited e-mail lists. Create a  separate email list for each product and assign a new auto responder to  each list. You always have the option to send an e-mail to one or all of  your lists at the same time particularly if your message resonates with  all your subscribers.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If you implement these 3 methods you'll  save time, build long-term relationships with your customers and sell  products on autopilot.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;                    &lt;div id="sig" class="sig"&gt;       &lt;p&gt;And now I would like you to instantly claim your 50 page report of my&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a target="_new" href="http://www.isitebuild.com/Autoresponders"&gt;Autoresponder System&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;From Herman Drost - Web Design, Hosting, SEO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a target="_new" href="http://www.isitebuild.com/Autoresponders"&gt;http://www.isitebuild.com/Autoresponders&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;     &lt;/div&gt;           &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 1em;"&gt;Article Source:       &lt;a href="http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Herman_Drost"&gt;        http://EzineArticles.com/?expert=Herman_Drost      &lt;/a&gt;      &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6509424194437161326-5500948144114964716?l=automatic-responder.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://automatic-responder.blogspot.com/feeds/5500948144114964716/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://automatic-responder.blogspot.com/2010/12/using-auto-responders-to-generate.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6509424194437161326/posts/default/5500948144114964716'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6509424194437161326/posts/default/5500948144114964716'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://automatic-responder.blogspot.com/2010/12/using-auto-responders-to-generate.html' title='Using Auto Responders to Generate Business'/><author><name>Anne-Marie</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
