If you have a business to which you are driving traffic and you want to keep in contact with your visitors, having them to subscibe to your newsletter is an effective marketing tool. Without an autoresponder, it would be difficult to keep up with the messages you need to send and when they need to be sent. For example, when a visitor subscribes to your mailing list, you will want to send them a message confirming their subscription.

This process is known as double opt-in. There is a law against sending unsolicited email messages to the public. If you do not confirm that your subscriber indeed wants to be on your list, you could face a complaint of sending SPAM.

On a daily basis, you want to be able to send your subscriber a confirming message followed by a thank you for subscribing message and then possibly another message that welcomes them to your newsletter with more details. On a periodic basis, you want to schedule additional messages to your list such as your monthly newsletter. When you want to offer a new product or service, you will want to be able to create one email that will be sent to all your list members. An autoresponder can perform these functions for you.

What a nighmare it would be if you had to keep track of who subscribed each day, create a personal message for each subscription, and a follow-up to each subscriber, and on and on. With an autoresponders, such as GetResponse, your subscriber names are collected and your messages can be created in advance.
