The department owner remembers your name, and uses it. He remembers you, and he wants you to know that he cared enough about you and your business to remember you. This is just one aspect of customer support in the offline world.
It is almost impossible to achieve customer service on the internet. But with your personalized autoresponder-it can exist. Autoresponder messages can be set up to address people by their first or last name – or both. Personalized information can be added as well depending on the autoresponder that you have.
Every autoresponder will use different codes to insert information in your messages. You simply write your message, and put the codes where you want the personalized information to appear. For instance, your message may start out with ‘Hello (code for first name)! In this case, the person’s first name will be inserted where that code is.
In order to improve your response rate, you should be able to personalize your messages. Personalized emails that have the person’s first name are checked more often, and those people are generally more receptive to the contents of the email message. It is usually very easy to do. You write one message, using the codes where you want the personalization, then, no matter who that one email is sent out to, their personal information will appear where the codes are.
Autoresponder collect information first and this is done with the use of forms that activate the autoresponder. If you are giving away a free book, and you have your visitor fill out a form with their email address to receive the download instructions for the ebook by email, that form should collect any type of information that you want for personalization – such as a first name, as well as the email address. If that information is not collected, the autoresponder won’t have anything to insert where that code appears in your messages!
You can find out what type of personalization if you try to take a look around the control panel of your autoresponder, you can add this your autoresponder messages. You will see improved results if you try this out.
Here’s a cool trick on how to personalize your e-mail autoresponder with your photo. I can’t take full credit for this nifty little trick.
It can be such a daunting task finding one. Last time I switched it took me 4 tries to find a good one.
I am looking for the best autoresponder service I have been with with AWeber from the very beginning (for a couple of years now.) Thanks that you remind me I should write a post about their latest service updates. – Best regards
