It’s really rather uncomplicated, and in fact, the judicial use of autoresponders makes getting the word to your potential customers those seven times much more likely . Doing business on the Net , without the use of autoresponders, you probably could not achieve that. Too often, marketers make the mistake of literally bombarding the potential customer with an overbearing sales pitch with the first autoresponder message – this rarely works .

You really need to create interest slowly. Start with an informative message – a message that educates the reader in some way on the subject that your product or service is related to helping .

Be subtle at first. Use that first message to focus on the problem that your product or service can provide a solution to , with just a hint of the solution. Keep the focus of the message directed at solving the problem of the prospective customer. Provide a promise of things to come so they will look forward to getting your next message. Perhaps offer a free report to help build your relationship.

As your message continues , you can slowly escalate from there, moving into how your product or service can provide a resolution , and then with the next message , ease into the value of your product – giving the reader more worthwhile information with each and every message . Your final message should be the sale pitch – not your first one! With each message, make sure that you are giving the customer information, and adding value pertaining to the topic the customer is interested in – free information will keep them coming back for more ! Building your relationship is what will keep them interested in what you have to say and start to build trust in their minds that you are a valued resource.

Start a ‘swap’ file, and keep those messages. Use some of the better sales copy for your own autoresponder messages – use ideas gotten in this way as inspiration ! Don’t plagerize – use your “swap file” as a idea generator to jump start your sales messages and build upon.
