Why Would You Want to Upgrade to GetResponse Pro?

There are numerous reasons, apart from the fact that if you are serious about Internet Marketing, an autoresponder (and GetResponse is one of the best) is absolutely essential.

One of the reasons is that it allows you to capture all your leads directly into your own email marketing campaign – and we’ve set up the series of 10 bonus follow up emails for you already.

Another is that the free option is limited in it’s functionality

Here’s a typical question:

I’m all set up and the only thing that I need to do is get the ‘Get Response’ auto responder running along side everything else.

The problem I’ve come up with is that (as per pages 89-91 of the E-Book) I am unable to un-tick the 2 Opt-out boxes, so the system can auto-send the 400 follow-up emails. When I do this and save the page, it throws up an error message saying I can’t disable these two items. I feel that this is a crucial part of the entire system, as I will probably lose leads if they have to opt in on a second occasion.

This is the message that GetReponse gives you:

"Confirmed opt-in is superior subscription method and once switched on, it cannot be switched off. Please save your settings again without changing that."

This is a GetResponse Pro only option.

That’s how GetResponse fund the ‘free’ system, when you double opt-in on the free system, each email they send on your behalf includes an advert, if they respond to that, because they are double-opted-in already , they go straight to that person’s autoresponder without having to opt-in again.

i.e. if you only use the free system,

1) You are putting an extra step in the process of getting hold of your information

2) The will only receive the first 5 emails from the PIPS marketing campaign, each of which carries someone else’s advert.

And

3) You are potentially giving your leads away to someone else.

    I recently received this comment:

    “Now I am receiving e-mails from GetResponse saying new people are being added to my GetResponse campaign - I don`t understand what is happening.

    I do not seem to be notified by James Grandstaff about the e-book being downloaded as previously so does the GetResponse system somehow sidestep IMSP.?

    Does the GetResponse campaign startup when a name and e-mail address is added or when it is confirmed. ?”

    If you have set your system up by following the two training videos, then this is correct, it’s working just as it should do!

    Once you start using the IMSP ‘gr’ squeeze pages, everyone requesting information is AUTOMATICALLY added to your GetResponse campaign, as well as going to the download/thankyou page.

    GetResponse now handles all the follow up / through, name and email address capture etc. and constantly promotes IMSP and after 10 emails, PIPS.

    Additionally if you have set your GetResponse system up as we have suggested, you have ‘disabled’ the double opt-in, so as soon as they fill in the IMSP squeeze page (gr version) they will start to receive the 400 day email campaign, they no longer need to ‘confirm’.

    To see how it works, just enter your own name and email address into your own capture page.

    Log in to GetResponse at any time to see your leads, they are in the ‘Subscribers’ section.
