Autoresponder Program

Mailloop Email System: 4.5 Stars.

I don’t ordinarily reprint the marketing information provided by a software marketer, but after evaluating Mailloop (just upgraded to Version 7), I’m convinced that this is the best software based mailing and marketing manager available. One price and you never have to pay recurring fees for autoresponder services again! Recommended.

I couldn’t say it better than what is provided by the company itself:

“Is this email marketing software all hype?

Or, does Mailloop REALLY have the potential to
help you grow a six-figure income Internet business?”

Product Review of “Mailloop: email and Business Automation Software”

Are you drowning in a sea of email chores…? Sure, email is now considered to be one of the top 3 essential Internet marketing strategies:

… The PROBLEM is, unless you automate your email chores early in your business lifecycle, what you’re *saving* on postage and printing costs COULD be eaten up by 100s of wasted hours.

It’s not really FREE to send an email campaign if it takes you 3 days to actually get it out the door!

Fortunately, today there are software and services available that take the grunt work out of sending email campaigns, newsletters, and autoresponders…

… Leaving you free to worry about the fun stuff, like crafting high-impact email campaigns… or automating your backend sales with series of autoresponders!

A favorite on my list of tools is Derek Gehl’s (of Internet Marketing Center fame) Mailloop — email and Business Automation Software.

Are people REALLY increasing profits
with Mailloop? Or, is it all hype?

Personally, I’ve always been comfortable using and recommending Mailloop to my friends and business associates because it has a proven track-record.

The software has been around (and evolving through updates) since 1998… and was originally built by Derek’s team to manage their own email marketing campaigns, which now…

Generate over $3.5 Million is sales per year!!!!!!

Of course, if you’re just getting started, software that manages email campaigns worth MILLIONS of dollars per year might seem a bit out of your league.

So I think it’s important to note that Mailloop also has a long, proven track-record of helping “Regular Joe’s” who have started small (with NO opt-in list or experience sending email) grow to a six-figure income — and beyond!

Sure it’s more affordable… but are you
giving up features and control?

If you’re price conscious like me, you’ll also appreciate the value-for-the-dollar Mailloop gives you.

Mailloop has been designed to give small and home-based business owners ALL the email automation tools you need, in one easy-to-use software interface…

So while many of the email management services used by the Fortune 500s will “two-bit” you to death with extra charges that can run into the $1,000s per year, with Mailloop you get everything you need to…

• Easily collect email addresses from an opt-in form on your website
• Subscribe and unsubscribe people from your list automatically
• Import existing lists of opt-in customers and subscribers
• Send professional-looking email campaigns — in text and HTML
• Manage MULTIPLE newsletters from one interface
• Automate your customer service with autoresponders
• Send automated “follow-up” emails with unlimited autoresponders

… Plus tons more, all for one very reasonable, low one-time payment — and NO EXTRA charges, ever!

What about support? Will you be crying
by your computer at 2 a.m.?

Here’s where I really give Derek and his team some serious praise.

Until a couple of years ago, support for the Mailloop software was limited to some videos and a help manual. Yes, there were a few staff dedicated to supporting customers, but I generally get the impression they were spread too thin.

In the last couple of years, though, Derek and IMC have really beefed up their technical support… I take it this has happened in response to customer demand.

So now, not only has Mailloop been streamlined with these GREAT wizards that walk you step by step through all the critical tasks like sending your first email, setting up your first autoresponder, etc…

… Mailloop ALSO now comes with a complete suite of video tutorials, a customer support center, and personal support on-demand from a very knowledgeable, and VERY available, team of Internet marketing experts.

So getting set up with Mailloop and sending your first email campaign is a breeze…

The final verdict… Is Mailloop a diamond or a dud?

Overall, I give Mailloop my highest recommendation.

Not only do you get the entire suite of email management tools for a low, one-time payment — a value of literally $1,000s per year…

… You also get unlimited support from IMC’s experienced staff… something other service providers are charging $100+ per hour for!

And with Mailloop’s track-record of helping regular people boost their incomes over six-figures per year, you can be confident that you’re using a software that’s already PROVEN to get results!
