Three Ways to Automate Your Business Fast

The use of autoresponders is a great way to automate your business
fast, freeing up precious time you could be using to do other
important aspects in your direct sales business. Set up properly,
they'll make your business more automated without losing that
personal touch. The following are just a few ideas for you.

Business Opportunity Information
You could set up your autoresponder to send out information on your
business opportunity. For example, you would take a list of
frequently asked questions about your business and put them into
your autoresponder. Put a form on your website for potential
recruits to request more information and then it's all done
automatically for you. This also saves you from having to answer the
same questions over and over again. Don't forget to set up a follow
up message to ask if they had any more questions or needed more
information!

Catalog Requests
Set up an autoresponder for potential customers to request catalogs.
An example on how to do this would be like this: Set up a form on
your website for customers to enter their mailing and email address.
Set up your autoresponder to send them a message letting them know
that you've received their request and you'll be sending out the
catalog. Then have it set to send out another message in about a
week – just to confirm that they've received your catalog and making
sure they didn't have any questions. Next you might want to set it
to send out another message in 3 – 4 days maybe offering a special
discount "just for them". Then for your final message, you could let
them know about a newsletter you offer with instructions on how to
join.

New Recruit Training
Autoresponders are a great way to train your new team members! Here
you could take a list of important information about the company,
product etc., and put them into the autoresponder to be
automatically delivered over time. Another idea is to set it up to
send out business tips about online parties, home parties, or just
running their business in general. With this, the possibilities are
endless.

The above is just a touch of what you can do because, as mentioned,
there are so many things you can do with an autoresponder. With a
little bit of creativity, you're sure to come up with something that
will help your business stand above the rest and with a little
research you're sure to find a program that will work for you.
