Customer Follow Up System - How to Follow Up with Your Past Customers by Email

 

A customer follow up system makes you able to use the lifetime value of your customers, so once you succeed to sell one of your products to a prospect and deliver a great buying experience, you've won a customer for life.

Attracting new customers takes a lot of money, time and effort. But following up with your past customers and selling to them is easy.

If your customers are happy with their first purchase from you, they are willing to buy from you again and again - actually as long as you have something to offer them!

... And email marketing is the best way to follow up with your past customers.

You simply send a follow up letter introducing another product to your customers list. The offer can be for one of your own products or an affiliate product.

Let me give you an example on how this strategy works...

Let's say you sell a book on how to paint fascinating oil paintings. Your book is very helpful and informative so many people buy it. Your customers are very happy with your book and like it very much.

After 1 week, you send them a follow up message via email and ask them how they're making progress with their oil painting and if they've found your book helpful. Many happy customers will send you a feedbacks explaining how it has helped them.

You can post these testimonials on your site to win your visitors' trust and make more sales.

Three weeks later, you send another message and recommend a related product from another company - oil colors for example. You've personally tried and liked them very much. You link to their website through your affiliate link. Since your customers trust you, many of them will buy the colors you recommended.

See how easily you make a lot of extra profits?

And guess what? After they try the oil colors you recommended, they love it. So they will like and trust you even more!

Two weeks later, you send another email message to your list and promote a good painting brush. You guessed right. Again, you make a lot of sales just by sending a simple follow up letter to your customer list!

How to Automate 95% of Your Follow Up System

Once the number of your customers reaches to over 20 - which hopefully it does soon - it will be very difficult to follow up with them one by one. Just imagine personalizing each message, managing your customer list, sending follow up letters to each of them separately, and keeping the track of which products each customer has bought from you.

These chores will soon eat up all your time and you won't have any time to grow your business and increase your income.

That's why you should automate your email marketing tasks as far as you can. You can automate 95% of all these tasks with autoresponders. There are many autoresponder services out there so it's easy to get confused which one is the best.

Here are some features you should make sure the autoresponder you choose offers...

  • Unlimited follow up messages
  • Unlimited autoresponders
  • Unlimited campaigns
  • Unlimited message length
  • Unlimited free technical support
  • Automatic subscribe and unsubscribe requests processing
  • The ability to send personalized messages
  • Let you save at least 15 fields of custom data for each of your customers
  • User friendly control panel to easily manage your lists and campaigns
  • Risk free money-back guarantee

Here are some features that will be a plus...

  • Ad tracking features to track click-throughs and open rate
  • Advanced statistics
  • Let you send email attachments
  • Free phone customer support
  • Live online support
  • Lots of customer testimonials on their website

Recently, I did a research to find the best autoresponder solution available. I asked successful newsletter publishers which autoresponder they used. I asked the same questions in a lot of forums. I also read many reviews to compare various solutions.

To make a long story short, here is the result I got: 95.1% of people said Aweber was the best autoresponder solution available.

They provide unlimited autoresponders, unlimited follow up messages, unlimited email campaigns, unlimited free phone support, advanced personalization features, complete ad tracking features, and lots of other great features that you'll get at a reasonable price.

You may read my honest review about it, or go directly to the Aweber website to see for yourself what I'm talking about when I say they're the best! :)

Wish you the best of luck! :)
