"Out of sight out of mind."
Has anyone ever promised you that when the time came they needed your product or service they would surely call you, only to find through a follow up call one week later that they just purchased your product/service from someone else?
"It slipped my mind."
"I forgot to call you."
"Sorry, but next time I'll remember."
There is a way to professionally and easily keep your name and valuable services in front of your clients and prospective clients.
It's called an email autoresponder system.
Utilizing this technology, you can input your client or prospect into an autoresponder series that will automatically send them e-mails at specified intervals...pre-written by you.
This process decreases the 'out of site, out of mind syndrome' and at the same time builds your value and professionalism to them...as long as your emails are valuable and not just 'e-junk mail.
The best part of these is that they are automated and hands free. The system takes care of all the deliveries and it frees up your time to work in other revenue producing activities.
As an example:
This website comes standard with an autoresponder email management system, and is what I use for my 7 installment FREE Newsletter.
Automatically when people fill in their e-mail address and 1st name, this system sends them an e-mail with the 1st Installment and at the same time requires the user to confirm it was them who submitted their information. This is called a double opt-in procedure and is smart in today's 'anti-spam' scenario.
Remember, this is all hands free and involves no interaction on my part...besides the initial set up.
I have used each of these services and my suggestion to you would be to find the one that fit's you, your budget and your email marketing goals best and begin utilizing it as soon as possible to help you become a sales champion.
