Hi Steve

What autoresponder do you use, and would you recommend? I hesitate to get any service that will cost me monthly, when I’m not making any money yet.

Janet,

I only recommend two autoresponders…aweber and 1 shopping cart.
They each have advantages (In fact, my next post on Thursday will cover these two). But both will cost about $30 a month.

I understand about not wanting to commit to a monthly expense when you are not making anything yet, so perhaps you can create a free blog at blogger.com, choose a product at Clickbank.com and when you have made your first $360…you will be able to afford a year’s worth of autoresponder service.

Autoresponders and newsletters will really cause your online business to grow because you will be interacting with your visitors over time instead trying to propose on the first date.

All relationships take time and familiarity to be successful and your visitor’s relationship with you and your web site is no different.

Hi Steve

Thanks for your insights. I found your use of free blogs very liberating! I also want to ask if I could use free blogs other than Blogger, such as MSN space. That is, will they get indexed by search engines as effectively as Blogger (which is owned by Google, did you say?) MSN space seems to have more functions. Or should I just go with Blogger because there’s more likelihood of being found by Google? Thanks for your comments Steve!

Hi, Steve,

Thank you for patiently putting together this product. I am extremely excited about getting it and teaching myself and my boys the steps to getting an interneter business started.

Janet,

I don’t know if Blogger posts get indexed by Google faster than MSN space posts, but why not do both?

You could post the same posts to each one and cast out two fishing nets instead of one.

Hi Steve!

I was wondering if you are releasing the price of your
Sites That Sell materials. I just want to be prepared, talk it over with my husband, etc. before the release date. Can you at least give us a ballpark figure…or do you know yet? Thanks and may the Lord bless mightily the work of your hands!

Oh…one more question…do you have an affiliate program for the Sites That Sell materials OR since this is only a very short release time you are not going to have an affiliate program for it. Just curious :) .

Have a GREAT day!

In Christ,
Sheri

Sheri,

I will release the price today (just need to talk about a few expenses with my duplicator, first).

Also, I am glad to see you thinking entrepreneurially with the affiliate program, but it is such a short window, I will have to think about it.

I have some MAJOR announcements today, but they will have to wait because I am off to take my seminary finals right now. I’ll be back a little later with a killer offer!

I have been looking all over your site for the price and can’t find it. I think you need to let people know this before the release date so they can talk it over and pray about it. I don’t think it’s fair to expect people to “act quickly” when they don’t know the price in advance.

Hi, This program would be of great help to our family. My husband has just recorded a french christian album. We want it available as download as well as selling the actual cd on the net. To have your tips would help us have an amazing website that could really help take this take off. We would like to have this become a part of our income so my husband wouldn’t need to work so hard physically,be with the family more and concentrate on what God has put in his heart. It would also be great to teach our children these skills. Thanks,
Danielle Genereux
