To manage a list that large, you need some help in the form of an autoresponder. This is software that you buy that takes care of most of the tedious administrative tasks that come with managing your list, such as sending out emails according to a pre-established schedule, collecting email addresses of new subscribers, distributing your free giveaways, directing traffic to the appropriate sales and thank you pages as well as many other tasks that you cannot do with your regular email account.
Your autoresponder will also provide you with valuable data that you can use to better manage your online business, such as how many people actually click through from the emails you send out, which users always delete your emails without reading them, even how long the average user spends reading your emails before clicking off. You can use data like this to fine tune your email promotions so that they are converting better and connect more effectively with a larger percentage of your list.
While there are dozens of autoresponders out there that you can get, there are three that offer the best array of services at the most affordable prices: • PureLeverage • Aweber • GetResponse Getting a high-quality autoresponder is sort of like being a business owner who hires a hard-working, efficient and honest assistant to run the day to day email operations for you.
