Autoresponders

Autoresponders are, without a doubt, your best friend, your secretary if you will. With our PIF4P system we have two, Response Magic and Traffic Oasis.

For those unaware, our autoresponders will automatically start to go to work for you as soon as there has been a new entry to the data base, ie when someone signs up, as you did, to one of your websites or new "leads" have been added to the data base either electronically or manually.

Initially we will discuss abit about Response Magic. First and foremost, I need to register some bias here - I LOVE this program. As you become more familiar with it, I trust it will also become YOUR best friend. It does SO much work for us.

Your home edition of Response Magic will automatically followup with all of the new contacts you receive as a result of the marketing you will be doing for your websites. When you signed up and received your own website, your sponsor's autoresponder (Response Magic) automatically went to work and started sending you messages.

There is a bit of work to be done to ensure all is functioning properly though. You need to visit the Success Guide and go through Day 1 and get your RM autoresponder upgraded and your messages loaded into your PIF4P "list", then you want to do the same for your "CFM Prospecting Newsletter" and your “3 Step Secret” following the same procedure. The 3 Step Secret messages are not available just yet, so you need to remember to go back and do this as soon as they are.

Once you have done this, go to http://responsemagic.com, log in with the username and password you received, and spend a few minutes getting to know the "control panel".

On the home page, on the right hand side, there is an icon (looks like a filmstrip), that links you to the Response Magic tutorials - these are very good, take a few minutes and go through at least the tutorials on "settings". This will definitely be time well spent.

Personal Settings: complete the form as best you can. There are merge fields used in your messages, the information entered here will be inserted in all the places that have these merge codes. The field for “~~ownerswebsite~~” should be completed with your Cashflow123 url. When complete you must “update” your information. You will need to edit the messages in your PIF4P list to substitute your PayItForward4Profits url.

In your "List Settings" you will notice you have multiple lists - there is a specific order to the first three lists that must be maintained
List #1 - CFM Prospecting Newsletter
List #2 - PIF4P
List #3 - reserved for 3 Step Secret.

Be sure you do not mess with the order of these lists - they are, in essence, "hard wired" to each of the corresponding websites, if they are not in this order, your contacts are getting the wrong list of messages.

Ali's Tip - manually add yourself as a contact to each of your lists in both of your autoresponders, it will give you that added reassurance that your messages are in fact being received as you will also get a copy.

Traffic Oasis - you will find an excellent tutorial for preloading your Traffic Oasis autoresponder under the “Training”, “Internet Tools Training” tab in the back office of PIF4P. There are also many notes and references in the members forum, so I won’t keep you tied up here.

I want to leave you with this last bit of advice - preload and test your autoresponder messages BEFORE you start marketing, it will save you a lot of grief.
