Is Email Marketing Dead? What R U Using For Autoreponders?

Hi,

Yes. I agree with you. 3rd party email marketing in my opinion is a difficult strategy to implement. Why?.. Because there is no relationship with the person whom you are sending out the email to. The person doesn't even know you. How can you expect that they will listen to you.

Compare this to capturing your subscriber's emails using an opt-in form. Not only will they know you, because they have wilfully subscribed to your list, but they will also be interested in learning from you because you would already have given them a free gift in exchange of their e-mail address. They would have seen the high quality of information which you would have shared with them in the freebie you gave them.

This makes them think, when the free stuff is so good, the paid stuff must be awesome...



This gives you an opportunity to build a life long relationship with them where you can educate them and also promote offers creating revenue for your business.

I run an email marketing based business using a simple autoresponder service (Sendlane) and am pretty happy with it. I get people to opt in to my email list using a simple opt in form which i have created with them and offer a free report in exchange.

I then share really high quality information with my list on a daily basis. This helps me build a solid relation with them, and when I promote offers, my subscribers buy handsomely from me, thus generating good revenue for me in the process as well.

So I get paid good enough for all the hard work I put in to educate and share quality information with my list everyday.

Hope this helps! Please feel free to message me in case you need any other help as well.

Yes. We held a short service and buried it.

Email marketing is far from dead.
Mailchimp does not allow affiliate offers.
I recommend aweber or getresponse

Oprah is wigging out.

I use GetResponse and I am satisfied with that. Works for me. And let me confirm one thing, email marketing will never die. Only condition is that you maintain a quality list.

Aweber and Getresponse are both great.

I like Getresponse because of the statistics page, the online help support. However, they only allow 1 landing page if you have the $15 plan.

Aweber gives you more landing pages starting out, but their online support is not up to date with their web layout.

Both are easy to navigate.

Yes. I believe all of the autoresponder services are good. It is more of your own personal requirements which define your purchase cause they offer you a lot of flexibile options to choose from.

Email marketing still works today. I am using Aweber, the performance is good. Others you may try GetResponse or MailChimp, they all have free trial.

Use either Aweber or Getresponse, I currently use both, and email marketing is far from dead, you can build a good relationship with your customers through email marketing if done correctly.

About the only time I have successfully given away someone else's ebook as a lead magnet was when the ebook was written by the product creator I was trying to promote.

That said, you don't need a full-grown ebook. Even a short, 3-4 page, report will do. Or a checklist, resource list, etc

As long as it's related, useful and easy to consume, it can work to draw leads. In fact, often shorter is better these days. I read where the average person can get over 100 emails per day. Add in the other things clamoring for attention, and your full-length ebook ends up on the hard drive unread, and your emails go unopened.

Something as simple as "Use this 5 point checklist before buying a [whatever]" can work better than a long ebook that seems like work. Of course, the [whatever] that you want to promote passes all five points...

Aweber or Getresponse or Sendlane for biz ops / affiliate marketing.

There are many other autoresponders out there but might not be friendly for affiliate marketers.

One idea for the lead magnet - as mentioned, grab a PLR product... But make a powerpoint presentation and add your own twist, and do a video presentation if writing a report is not a good idea.

This way, you will be able to show your face to your subscribers and this helps in relationship building. Hope this helps

For me Aweber has everything i need to run a campaign, including followups and other forms of email marketing. I don't think having a simple "landing page" to capture emails is enough, these days. I prefer the approach of having a whole web experience with a gated content section that asks for emails in return for access. It also makes it easier to have products to sell because your customers are more engaged with your site/community rather than just signign up for a quick pdf ebook then unsubscribing from your email.

It still works amazingly!

I absolutely love this site! you guys are great

I recommend you use Get Response they have great features and free training available, customer service is always super helpful as well.
