My Boss Says Email Autoresponders don't work -HELP PLEASE
First off THANK YOU all for posting here, I'm new to this forum lurking around so far gathering answers to questions I have. I'm my company's online marketing director and completely self-taught (with large holes in my marketing knowledge).
I'm trying to move my company from an in-house email manager system (an old piece of software we purchased years ago called Email Manager Pro, it gives little to no stats e.g. no open rate) to a new email manager service (likely AWeber, MailChimp, our GetResponse).
I'm also trying to reduce the amount of resources we spend every month copywriting fresh new email marketing campaigns to sell our products (FYI: I'm pretty much the only marketing employee so I'm also the copywriter). With a new email manager I'd also like to set up an automated 3-9month campaign.
My boss recently debated the idea of setting up an autoresponder for new email list opt-ins saying that:
"All of the [marketing] experts I talked to said that whenever they tried to automate a campaign it lost traction – even though they kept it the same word for word and they test were done on a new set of people – and there was no way of knowing for the people that it is an auto-responder....
Basically their consensus is this: The people you are marketing to is a social network (even though they are not all really directly connected). When you create a live marketing campaign you have the possibility to truly influence the energy of this social network by communicating - at the right time - the right things."
My question to the EXPERTS here(and I know there are many) is do you find this argument valid in your own experience?
If you think that setting up an autoresponder campaign for new email list opt-ins is financially sound please defend your position?
I thank you in advance for your answers and thoughts.
