Email marketing is indeed one of the best and cost-effective marketing tools available. But is it that easy to manage? The answer is yes, with a set of useful tools. With the right tools, this becomes a rather simple task. For instance, email marketing would mean receiving bulk emails from potential customers and following up with them.
That is one tedious task! So, what if you could have a feature that automatically responded to the incoming emails and track them? This sounds amazing and that is where the email auto-responder comes into the question! Whether it is about people subscribing to these emails or whether it is about reaching out to them, this tool solves all your problems.
Converting website visitors to subscribers
There are hundreds of people visiting your website on a daily basis. How do you convert them into leads? By initiating communications with them. Auto-responders ensure that with every visit, a mail is shot out to the visitor in exchange for his or her visit to your site. This could be a trial offer, a consultation or the likes. This is a way of establishing interactions with the visitors and if they like you, they can subscribe to your emails for updates.
All time service
One of the biggest advantages of auto-responders is the fact that they can run 24 *7 without pausing. So, whether your visitor comes to your site during the day, or in the middle of the night or even early morning, the auto-responders can take care of initiating conversations with them.
So, in effect, you can take a long vacation, take a day off or a break, and your auto-responder will continue to mail your potential clients without you being around.
Alternative to human labor
By automating the whole process, you are taking the burden of the employees in your workplace and letting technology take over. Firstly, this is a very cost-effective solution. Secondly, it reduces or eliminates human error. Lastly, it frees up your employees to allow them to focus on other tasks like converting leads to clients.
All customers are reached out to
Continuing from the previous point, automation reduces human error. Thus, if there was a chance that you would miss out on a particular customer, auto-responders take care of that. Every potential client subscribed on your list will be exposed to information regarding your company or business. In effect, you do not miss out even a single visitor.
More clients!
Auto-responders can generate more website traffic and thus potential clients for your company. For instance, if you send out an automated email to a certain visitor, you can add a ‘Call to Action’ phrase like ‘Please visit our website for more information’ along with the link. This will redirect all the potential leads to your website. What this does is increase site traffic which eventually will lead to a higher conversion rate. Also, if you add some promotional offers or trail offers in the emails, potential leads can easily change into leads for your company.
