Membership site review :
-------------------------------------------
What is the site about :
-------------------------------------------
This company sells a webmaster tool. So this week, I am not reviewing a membership site per say, but it is an affiliate program that pays recurring commission, which mean higher paycheck for you!
This webmaster tool is an autoresponder. Why should you promote this kind of tool? Because every serious webmaster needs it! Every serious webmaster knows that to make money online you need a mailing list, and to manage these lists, they need and autoresponder.
Of course, there is competition in this market, because you will not be the only affiliate marketer promoting an autoresponder. The trick, in my opinion, is to get there early. If you can be the first to talk about autoresponder to a webmaster, chances are this person will buy from you.
Now why did I choose to talk to you about GetResponse today? Because it is the autoresponder I personally use for my (numerous) lists. I have been using it for a while now, so I can tell you first hand if it works well or not.
Before, I was working with AutoResponsePlus, and it was doing OK, but I have to say that since I have switched to GetResponse, things are running much easier.
-------------------------------------------
Now, what's inside?
-------------------------------------------
This autoresponder offers an easy management of many lists at the same time. You can switch from one to the other in the control panel very easily.
It offers web form subscription, double opt-in, unlimited follow-ups, broadcast feature, tracking system, and every other possible feature you could think of that a webmaster would need in an autoresponder.
A nice little bonus : they send you a DVD by mail, with an interview of the owner on it.
I will not go on and on about the features, because the list goes for ever. The reason why I want to review GetResponse today is really for its affiliate program. It is a killer, here is why.
-------------------------------------------
What is the affiliate offer:
-------------------------------------------
Why should you promote this autoresponder instead of another one?
First, the service is excellent : I have tested it, tested their customer support, everything is reliable.
Second, they offer a free version and a paid version. When you promote an autoresponder, what you want is to get people to try it first. If they start a list, put up web forms on their site, there is a huge possibility they will continue using it afterward. Why? Because switching from one autoresponder to another is a real pain! So, by offering the free version to your visitors, you get them to use it, they get hooked, and you get them as a paying customer for a very long time
Third, these guys know how to sell. The site has a real sale letter on the homepage. The copywriting is compelling the visitor to buy and or try the free version many times. Why this is good for you? Many sites that sell tools for webmasters don't necessarily know how to sell. Their software/service might be the best one around, but if they don't sell it properly, you will not get many sales. On GetResponse, they DO sell to the visitor, and they do a great job!
Fourth, they have an impressive follow up system. Well, you would not expect less from an autoresponder company would you? But really, I am impressed. If you sign up for the free version, they offer you the paid version all the time. Another example when I first went to the site, I started to order, but the Paypal option was not there, so I abandoned the shopping cart. A few minutes later I was checking my emails and what was there? An email from GetResponse asking me why I had decided not to order. I sent them an email telling them I wanted to pay with Paypal. A few minutes later I had all the details on how to proceed, and I was a new customer.
This way of doing business is excellent, and because of that, you will convert much more visitors into buyers.
Now, the affiliate program details :
The program is two-tier. You get paid 30% on the first tier, and 10% on the second tir. And of course, the commissions are recurring!
The tracking is excellent, because when people sign up for the free version, you get paid commission when they upgrade to the paid option.
-------------------------------------------
Conclusion
-------------------------------------------
There are tons of different autoresponders available online at the moment. From a customer point of view, some are better then others. In my opinion, GetResponse deliver its promises by offering a very high quality service.
The major difference is in the affiliate program and the promotion tactics. You can be sure that by promoting this autoresponder, you will convert more visitors into buyers, growing your monthly commission check faster.
How could you promote this starting today? You can write an article about autoresponders on your site, and in it, tell you readers that you know a great place to get an excellent free autoresponder. You should get a few sign-ups from that!
