"One of the difficult tasks in 2008 is finding a good autoresponder that allows you to use the leads you've purchased, without spending a fortune on leads."
"The other task is finding an autoresponder that is easy to learn for your downline to use too. We are constantly looking for email marketing solutions that meet these criteria."
"Below are several autoresponders we recommend. These are autoresponders that our customers are using with great success."
There are several autoresponders available to you, but not all of them are compatible with many network mareketer's needs. We have two main categories of autorespnders we recommend below:
- Autoresponders that allow you to import leads - This is what you need if you purchase email leads to either send to your own lead capture page or to your company's business opportunity site.
- "Closed loop" autoresponders - A closed loop system basically requires you to generate your own leads through a lead capture page.
A very popular approach is a two autoresponder system — one to use as a bulk email autoresponder to send email leads to your own lead capture page. The lead capture page uses a closed loop system. In fact, this is what we recommend. You are basically building your own list, and in essence,
generating your own leads.

Recommended AutoResponders For Importing Leads You've Purchased
These 2 autoresponders are ranked in order of preference. I have tried to include comments that will let you know why it is ranked where it is ranked. No autoresponder service is going to be perfect, so you have to decide if deliverability rates are more important than quantity, or other factors.
1) ContacterEmail - This is a great AR! Prices start at $29 per month, and they have a higher than average deliverability rate. In email marketing, deliverability is everything. If you don't see the $29 price, just go to the bottom of the page and click on "Pricing" and it will take you to more package plans.
Great campaign management, nice tools, and a guarantee as you try out this AR.
2) A1ebiz - For less than $20 per month, this is a great autoresponder. A1ebiz has been around for several years. You can import leads, and they work very hard and maintaining high deliverability rates. The one thing you need to know is their system works best without using Hotmail or MSN email addresses. You can use our
Customized Email Leads to have those domains removed.
1) Aweber - If you generate your own leads or you use a 2 part email marketing system with a lead capture page, there is no better autoresponder than Aweber. We use this for our web sites and our newsletters.
We consistently get a 98 – 99 percent deliverability rate.
Aweber is one of the oldest autoresponders on the Internet, as well as one of the most progressive and technologicially advanced AR's available. Furthermore, they are whitelisted with more ISP's, meaning your emails will get delivered to more Yahoo, Hotmail, MSN, GMail, Earthlink, and AOL email addresses than anybody else. If you neglect this, you are losing out on at least 50% – 67% of all email addresses.
If you're going to do email marketing with lead capture pages, you need
Aweber.
There are certainly other autoresponders out there on the Internet. If you find one that works for you, drop us an email.
We are not associated with any of these autoresponders. Please consult with the individual AR company for support.
