Mastering The Auto Responder Message
Many internet marketers believe that their
autoresponder is their key marketing tool. With your autoresponder, you
can deliver your sales message or other information to all or some of your
clients, 24 hours a day, anywhere in the world. Writing autoresponder
messages are difficult to write and more importantly keep writing. So you
need to get results from each and every message.
- It’s about the reader, not yourself so ensure that
you write what you know they want to here. No matter how may
giveaways you produce, people will only read things that they are
interested in. Do not tell endless stories about your personal life nor
become political, racist or inappropriate. People are reading your
ezines for the information and to satisfy a need they have.
- Write as if each customer was the only customer
that you have. Treat them well and use a personal writing style as if
you were individually helping them. When your reader, reads your ezine,
they are unaware, and frankly don’t care, about the many others that
received the ezine as well.
- Be interesting, amusing and helpful in your
messages. You want your customers to enjoy and look forward to your
message. People buy from those they like and trust. Don’t be too wordy –
this is a sales message not a novel.
- Emphasize the benefits for receiving your message
and purchasing your products or services.
- Use action words and several compelling sub
headers to excite your reader.
- Include a “call to action” – after reading your
message – give your readers an action to take – be it go to a download
page for a giveaway or send an email for further information, or go look
at the benefits a product can provide them with.
- Pick a subject for each message. Try a theme
around a product that you are trying to sell. If you are offering an e
course in autoresponder messages then map this course out before you
start.
- Ensure that your message is spelt and punctuated
correctly and is grammatically correct. This makes your message
professional and easy to read.
- Have a consistent and easy to read layout. ASCII
text is always best. Keep white space above and below your heading and
key sub headers so that they stand out. Try and keep your paragraphs
short and put a spare line between each of them. Use bullets wherever
necessary as it is easier to read.
- Be legal – MLM letters are illegal in many
countries. Chain letters are illegal in most countries including USA
much of Europe. Similarly contests and any kind of gambling or
lotteries are similarly illegal in the majority of countries and states.
Ensure that your messages do not look like these types of emails. The
CAN SPAM laws of the USA require address details amongst other
features. Double opt in lists are by far the safest types of lists to
own. This means that each member has subscribed and then confirmed that
they wish to subscribe to your messages.
Remember – a well written series of messages will
build a good quality and loyal list of buying customers – so it is a skill
well learnt.
