List Building and Autoresponders

Today, August 25th, Marci explained what an autoresponder is and how it saves you time with building and managing your list. She went over briefly a few of the autoresponders and some of their features and benefits.

Several specific questions about lists and autoresponders were answered during the seminar, rather than at the end like we normally do. (Questions at the end of the seminar are usually trimmed out of the recordings to save space and time. If you want to get YOUR specific questions answered about a topic, then just drop on by next time and ask!)

AF Ranker, VMP Automation

Saturday the 14th Troy went over a couple topics. The first was the new enhancements to ViramMailProfits. He went over the auto-copy and paste and the autosend just added this past week.

The majority of the time was spent going over the recent and continuing testing of the comparative surveys in Affiliate Funnel. (Comparative meaning deciding between 2 TEs or 2 mailers, which is better.) We had a lively and eye opening discussion about who votes and why, the usefulness of ranks 1 and 10 in the current ranking, and why and how the current ranking system is now not giving the desired results that people are looking for.

Several of the attendees expressed their concerns, opinions, and suggestions.

Marci stressed the need to not only do something often enough that you can do it efficiently without needing to stop and think about it, but to also hone those skills by trial and error.
