If you have only been searching for the cheap email marketing solutions you
run the risk of missing out on the advanced features that the internet marketing
guru’s use to great effect. Yes it is more affordable to purchase a cheap email
marketing package, but what benefits are you giving up in terms of functionality
and control?

Whatever package you finally purchase you will want to have ease of use of
the product in order to save time spent learning the system, which you can then
invest into other areas of your business. Other benefits to look out for in any
email marketing package include:

1. Value for money. You certainly do not want to pay over
the odds for any package, no matter how highly rated, so its best to spend a
little time researching the market to make sure you get a product within your
price range and with acceptable features.

2. No hidden extra charges. Not as uncommon as you may
think, but there are some companies and packages that include extra charges for
setting up additional services that you may think are included within your
monthly fee (such as setting up additional autoresponder campaigns)

3. Email opt in form designs. Some of the cheap email
marketing products may not include a range of customizable email opt in forms
that you can adjust to suit your needs. It is a proven fact that an attractive
Email opt in form can make a huge difference to the number of signups you can
get in any market (split tested to death)

4. Automatic subscription and unsubscription. Being able to
automatically subscribe and unsubscribe people from your lists is vital, and any
cheap email marketing package that does not offer this most basic feature should
be avoided like the plague.

5. Importing existing customers and subscribers. This
particular benefit can be missing from many of the best email marketing products
simply because the provider does not want to be troubled by the rise in spam
complaints, brought about by users claiming to already have a client’s
permission to email them, when in fact they are not currently subscribed to the
email list. Many providers will require that you get your current customers and
subscribers to subscribe all over again before allowing you to add them to your
lists.

6. Choice of email format. This is important if you would
like fancy designs for your newsletters, which are sent in HTML format.
Otherwise you will only be able to send boring looking black text on a white
background (like this article!) which is sent in plain text format. Your choice
of email format can influence greatly the actions of your subscribers (again
split tested to death)

7. Customer service automation. If you don’t have the staff,
or rather don’t want them wasting time on the mundane tasks that can be
accomplished automatically, then you will require the benefit of customer
service automation, which is accomplished through autoresponders.

Your autoresponder is the most important aspect of your whole email marketing
campaign. It handles everything from welcoming new subscribers, to delivering
your constant stream of newsletters and sales messages, and is truly the one
piece of your campaign that you cannot do without. Do not make the mistake of
searching for a cheap email marketing product without learning about the
benefits an autoresponder can provide your business, whatever market you are in.

8. Email marketing product support. If things go wrong, and
nothing is perfect, it’s always nice to know that qualified support personnel
are only a phone call away (or an email!) so find out if you are looking for a
cheap email marketing solution that it does offer product support.
