Warriors..PLease Help!

Hello,

Has anyone tried the GetSubscribers leads And GetResonse auto responder?
Would this be a worth while investment?

Thanks,
Chris

    Yes, GetResponse is one of the two leading auto-responder services in my opinion, with the other being AWeber (who I use and have had great results from).

    Go for it!

    However, I wouldn't bother buying leads, as they haven't built a trusting relationship with you and are therefore more likely to mark your emails as Spam, lowering your reputation with the ISP's. When a certain level of people mark your emails as spam, the ISP's start to monitor the emails and often take out hyperlinks, etc.

    Hope i've helped

    - James.

    Ah ya, I've tried getresponse once and I guess it's cheaper than aweber, but I don't know about getsubscribers, you can also try to have an autoresponder script like parabots.com

      Most autoresponder services are worth investing in, I would however steer clear of the ones you buy and put on your own desktop.

      Reasons: too much hassle
      if your not technical they can be difficult to install
      you have to deal with SPAM complaints yourself
      your ISP will have a limit on how many mails you can send
      and it's not easy to move your list to a paid service once it gets too big to send

      Start as you mean to go on choose a good service and stick with it!

    I like get response because when you get started, you may not have enough money to use anything other than a self-hosted autoresponder. Getresponse allows you to import your lists as I understand it. Personally, I still host my own but that is simply a matter of personal choice for me now.

    Go for GetResponse

    Sign up only when you have something setup already. Get your site set up and the selling process ready. If not, you are just wasting money on it.

    There is no hurry. A delay of 1 month won't make a big different. Unless your idea is something damn BIGG

    Good luck to your online venture
