Recommended Email Software

I hear of VA’s and Business Owners sending their emails out in batches of 25-50 at a time. This is so the emails are not treated as spam and to supposedly save money. It becomes a time-consuming task when it is done this way. It is also open to human error.

Why not just press a button once and be safe in the knowledge that you have a 98%-99% guarantee that your email will be delivered? You can then receive vital information as to who has opened or deleted the emails. Email marketing software saves you time and thus money.

There are so many packages available and it can be a minefield. I am currently using AWeber on the recommendation of highly respected internet/affiliate marketers. All the email software listed below allows you to personalize your emails. This will improve your open rate.

AWeber

aweber_logoI have used AWeber for over a year now and highly recommend it. It has helped me to:

  • Turn website visitors into potential clients. It is really easy to create web sign-up forms and insert them onto your website..
  • Ensure I am not seen as a spammer. It is a double opt-in autoresponder. This means that once a subscriber signs up for your newsletter/free ebook then they must confirm their subscription.
  • Build up a relationship with my subscribers by using Autoresponders.
  • Set up a 14 day email course using Follow Up messages that will automatically be sent out to new subscribers in a sequence.
  • Send emails as frequently as I like. Some services charge per email sent which can get expensive fast. Aweber charges you by the amount of subscribers you have.
  • Know exactly where my subscribers are coming from. I have a number of lists set up, each with a different web form so I can track my subscribers. If you want to provide email management as a service you can set up a separate email list for each client.
  • Automatically handle unsubscribes. lf a subscriber decides to leave a list this is handled automatically. Aweber doesn’t actually remove the subscriber but marks it as inactive. I do advise you to remove anyone who has unsubscribed though, as you are charged for the amount of subscribers you have.
