Let's face it, some businesses sell "high ticket" items with enough profit margin that a few sales will do. Internet businesses don't usually follow this trend. So one of KEYS to success on net is driving HUGE amounts of traffic to your site. To do this you need TOOLS. And you need them to be FREE. Here is a step by step guide to what tools to use and how to use them.A KILLER WEB SITE This may seem obvious but it's more than just having a domain name. Every day people surf web only to find sites that take FOREVER to load, have music that sounds like cats fighting, and have links that don't work. AVOID THIS TRAP. There are FREE TOOLS to help you build an excellent site. And you don't have to be a "techie" to use them. Make sure your site is up to par. AUTORESPONDERS Autoresponders allow you to respond to inquiries about your product or service without your involvement. You write message for autoresponder to send, then set it and forget it. Autoresponders can send follow up messages as well so that information you send can be spaced out over time, giving you chance to repeat your selling points over days or weeks, reminding prospect why they should do business with you. Autoresponders QUALIFY your prospects so you only spend your time doing deals that can be done. SIGNATURE LINES IN EMAIL Most of us send hundreds of emails a month. A signature line (actually as many lines as you want) presents a selling message to EVERYONE you send email to. You can include active links to your website and even include your autoresponder address if you like. Putting a selling signature in your email is easy and FREE. THAT'S automation working FOR you.
