Email Promotion and Internet Marketing/How Do I Get Started
There are many ways to promote products on the Internet. Email promotion in internet marketing is one of the most effective ways. How to get started?
The best way to go about this is to sign up with a company that stores your email addresses and will send out timely messages. There are several companies. The one I recommend is aweber because of the fact that they have templates that you can get the HTML codes for to place on your website. This creates a form on your website where someone can respond with their email address and first name. Once this is in place, when someone enters their information it is automatically sent to aweber who stores it. You can set up an auto responder to answer the email addresses that are collected. What this means is that once someone responds they automatically get a message sent to them and get messages sent thereafter. Normally, if someone puts their information in they are a "hot prospect". This lead needs to be followed up right away otherwise the hot prospect becomes a cold one. What I recommend is sending a message every day for 12 days. The shorter the message the better.
You don't have to use aweber. You can find other companies that pretty much have the same services. Some email companies have email addresses that they have compiled. You can order them per category and in most cases they are double opt-in. What this means is that these people had voluntarily given their email addresses and they had to verify it through email. Since these people gave them out this is not considered spamming. You can purchase some of these and send them out yourself or you can have the companies send them out for you. The problem with sending them out yourself is that most email such as google, yahoo, hotmail, etc. will only allow you to send out so many emails a day. If you try to send out too much then you will shut down for that day.
You should be able to get your email promotion and internet marketing started this way. If you want more information on internet marketing please check out my websites below.
