Autoresponder series question

9 replies
Hi gang,

I have created a 7 part autoresponder series that I plan on sending to my buyer's list. I plan on developing more content for my autoresponder series, but was wondering if it's in my best interest to begin my autoresponder series or hold off until I have more content ready?

I assume there are a number of variables, but I'd like to get going with my sales funnel and take action. I suppose I can always add more content or send out broadcasts at a later date. My only concern is that my buyers will quickly unsubscribe after they receive the 7th email.

If anyone has any suggestions or recommendations, I'd greatly appreciate them. I am also happy to send over my autoresponder email series if that would help.

Thanks!

Scott

    If you have a 7 part auto responder ready then I would think its fine to kick start your funnel

    As long as you can build some time into your day to keep adding to it.

    There sure is nothing like the pressure of knowing your subs are nearing the end of your series to kick you into action to get some more content down!

      Thank you Huzie, I too believe few things will kick you into action like knowing your subs are nearing the end of the series! Thanks again for the feedback, greatly appreciated!

        No worries! also make sure you setup a "leads" list as well and work to move your leads into the buyers list. Depends what you are marketing but you will probably want to send slightly different content to each list and treat the buyers list with more respect!

        Good luck!

  • Just get moving Scott.

    Start sending people into the funnel and add content as you go.

    So what if you fall a little behind. People are not going to unsubscribe immediately after the 7th email anyway. You have a little breathing space, so get your ass in gear.

    As Huzie said above; no better incentive to write more messages than when subs are going through the sequence.

      Thanks for the feedback Declan, I definitely am ready to push forward...just wanted to make sure I wasn't being premature with sending out the emails.

    Don't hold back. This process is always about testing, tweaking and adapting. You can start working on new content whilst your list is building. The more "what if's" you think about, the less you're going to get results.

    It doesn't have to be perfect. Deliver the value, work on the solution and get it going.

    Scott, people are going to resonate with different people. It all comes down to how you market to them. You're always going to get unsubscribers... even the best of the best in industries get unsubscribers. No one is perfect. Just keep working on testing, tracking and tweaking until you have established results that you can work with and eventually scale up.

    If you already have a buyers list then why don't you just sell...sell...sell to them!

    Sell to them in each Autoresponder email via an affiliate link.

    Sell to them via a broadcast, while they are receiving
    your Autoresponder series.

    Post a link on udimi.com and sell a few solo ads to
    YOUR already built buyers list and make some cash on the side.
    $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

    Listen I'm on the list's of some of the
    top internet marketers online Today
    and that is how they conduct business...sell, sell, sell.
    How else are they going to make money.
    And guess what?...I'm not the least bit put off.
    Know WHY?...cause they send me great deals.
    I've purchased products for $8.95 that are now selling
    for $97 and that's the truth.

    Don't get me wrong, I give other freebies
    to my list besides the initial opt-in freebie, but, the bottom line
    is WE are all here on WF and online to MAKE MONEY.

    Thank You and best of success to you

      7 is plenty to get you up and going. I don't know what your market is, but many times, things change radically over time and you can always add in live broadcast emails to your list of people.
