By Dave D.

Besides just answering your emails, autoresponders are an incredible, flexible program that is capable of doing so much more. Using it creatively and productively will be able to convert your prospects into a paying customer. Here are 15 creative ways to use your autoresponder:

3. Insert your links page.
They should contain a number of links of the same niche that would interest your subscribers. Don't forget to put in your own links or affiliate links at the top or at the bottom of the page.

4. Make your sales process automated.
Make use on an ad to get continuous exposure, this will create branding and increase sales. Put your autoresponder address in your ad so you will be able to automatically follow up on offers with your visitors. This increases the likelihood of converting prospects to customers.

5. Make a service or product reminder
After your visitor have completed your autoresponder course, remind them about your product or services that are available. This will dramatically increase the odds of closing in a sale from visitors who are undecided. These reminders can also be used to promote new services and products of you own or even your affiliate programs.

6. Offer your product as a trial version.
Software, e-book, free membership, short courses all can be used as a trial service or product. At times it takes a little bit of exposure to make them want more. You can also use a trial version offer on your website to capture e-mail address. Your autoresponder should be set up to give directions on how to access the trial version and then don't forget to follow-up on closing the deal.

7. You can publish a newsletter.
A good autoresponder will have the ability to manage the subscriptions of your newsletter and follow-up with interested visitors. Your newsletter can give updates to your products or services and even provide useful content. At the same time you will also be building a reputation for yourself as an expert in your business.

8. You can publish a newsletter for your affiliates.
This is to inform your affiliates of any promotions going on that they can use to their advantage to increase commissions. Advice, tips and new techniques can also be published for your affiliates to use as their promotional tool.

9. Order page with an autoresponder.
This will create a very useful mailing list because it contains addresses of people who have already bought a service or product from you. The chances of repeat order are high because people rather buy from a known source. You can inform visitors that they will be notified of any special discounts or offers in the future if they join your mailing list.

10. You can hand-out your articles.
Article marketing must not be an underestimated tool for building your business credibility. Targeted articles bring traffic and increased sales. Articles with good content are always being sought after by editors and if they print yours they will always include a resource box for you bio. Your resource box can include a quick note on the services and products you have, your website address or even your autoresponder address.
Make a master list for all your articles that you want to distribute and plug it into your autoresponder. Also plug in all the articles into your autoresponder in different accounts, then promote your main list. Also include your guidelines for publishing so affiliates can add their own articles to your list. This will in turn increase the amount of writers in your own article list.

11. You can hand-out e-mail courses.
Courses without the sales pitch. Quality content is what you should be providing for your autoresponder to mail out periodically. Your content will effectively do the selling on your behalf. For each lesson, tips can be included on how your product benefits the buyer. At the end of each short e-course make sure you include a reminder for your visitors to reflect on the benefits.

12. Hidden pages link can be accessed through your autoresponder.
An affiliate page containing promotional articles, text links, tools or offers for affiliate promoters to utilize is an example for a hidden page. Inform visitors that by requesting from your autoresponder they can have access to your hidden affiliate page. This method will produce targeted visitors who may be interested in working with you.

These are just some of the examples of what you can do with an autoresponder. There are many more ways to use one and you just have to be a little creative and come up with more.
