Tutorial On Setting Up An Autoresponder To Automate Your Email Follow-up

What Is An Autoresponder?

Here Is A Demo Of How It Works

1. First, a visitor to your website chooses to subscribe to your mailing list by entering their Name, Email and clicking on "Subscribe".

2. Once this happens, this new visitor’s subscription details will be captured in an email database called an autoresponder.

3. At the same time, a double opt-in request will be sent from your autoresponder to this visitor.

Once They Have Subscribed To Your Mailing List, They Will Receive A Double Opt-In Request

1. This double-opt in request is actually an email sent to your subscriber, asking them to confirm that they want to subscribe to your mailing list. They confirm by clicking on the confirmation link.

2. Once they click on the link, your subscriber will receive an email confirming their subscription.

Once Your Subscriber Has Confirmed Their Subscription Via Clicking The Double Opt-In Link, They Will Start Receiving Your Email Messages

1. Your autoresponder email message(s) are then queued for delivery to your new subscriber. Message #1 will be sent out immediately.

Your Other Messages Will Be Delivered According To The Frequency You Have Set For Their Delivery

1. In this example, message #2 is set to be be delivered to your subscriber 1 week after message #1 is sent out.
