Bulk Email Software Program
Have you been looking for a way to automatically subscribe website visitors to your mailing list? Look no further. Opt-in subscriber-based email is where the future of email marketing is headed. Why allow your website visitors to come and go without being asked if they want to receive additional information on your products or services? They obviously came to your website because they were interested in what you have to offer. If you don't follow up with them after they leave, someone else will and you will lose a sale. Prospect Subscriber is a unique bulk email software program that can collect the email address of everyone who visits your website! Here are just a few of its features:
-
Very simple mass email marketing program to learn and operate. Once configured, it runs by itself automatically.
-
Automatically creates opt-in subscriber lists that can be loaded into Prospect Mailer.
-
No more worrying about losing the visitors to your website without any way to contact them.
-
Helps you run a responsible bulk email campaign by developing an opt-in subscriber list.
-
Web forms collect a lot of fake email addresses. This bulk email marketing program collects only valid ones!
Prospect Subscriber allows you to automatically collect the email addresses of your website visitors. Within 10 minutes of downloading, you can setup this easy-to-use system on your website. Once you have installed it, visitors to your website will receive a prompt asking them if they want to receive additional information on your products or services. If they click "ok", their email address will be automatically collected and sent to you - they don't even have to type it in!
Prospect Subscriber is very easy to setup and install on your website. After downloading and installing the program on your computer, it will ask you what you want to ask your customer when they are prompted (i.e. "Would you like to subscribe to our monthly newsletter?"). It will also ask you what email address that you would like to have the subscriber's email address sent to. Once you have entered this information, the program will then automatically generate the html code that you can copy and paste into your web page. Once your visitors begin subscribing, you simply run Prospect Subscriber on your computer periodically to automatically add the email addresses that you have collected to a file. It's that easy!
Let's get started!
Screen #1
When you open Prospect Subscriber, the first screen you will see is this:
You have two options on this screen. The first one, "Generate Web Page Code" takes you to a simple form to fill out which will generate the html code to place in your web page. The second option takes you to the program that receives your subscriber requests and places them in a file for you.
Generating Web Page Code
Screen #2
If you click the "Generate Web Page Code" button, the following screen will open:
This screen asks you a few questions that will determine how the subscriber prompt will operate on your website. To start, enter the text that you want visitors to see on the subscriber prompt when it pops up on your web page. To see what the text will look like to visitors, press the "test" button. The next question will determine how often you want return visitors to be prompted to subscribe. The options are every visit, once a week, and never again. The third and final question gives you the option of prompting the visitor as soon as they open the web page or to delay the prompt. We don't make any recommendations on these settings, but encourage you to test them out and see what works best with your website visitors. Once you finish answering the questions on this screen, press the "next" button.
Screen #3
If you press the "next" button on Screen #2, the following screen will open:
When one of your website visitors press the "ok" button to subscribe, their email address will be sent to the email address of your choice. Therefore we recommend that you use an email address exclusively for that purpose. Enter this email address into the first field on this screen. You can also enter a subject line for the subscriber emails that are sent to you (i.e. "Newsletter Subscriber," "Information Request," etc.) for your own reference or for use with Prospect AutoResponder to trigger different auto-responses based on specific subject lines.
Screen #4
If you press the "next" button on Screen #3, the following screen will open:
This screen allows you to create an additional button on your web page for visitors to manually press to subscribe in case they decide not to subscribe via the automatic prompt. Type in the text that you want to be on the button, such as "Click here to subscribe to our newsletter." Then choose a color for the button and a "mouseover" color (this is the color that the button will change to if a visitor hovers their mouse over it). Once you finish answering the questions on this screen, press the "next" button.
Screen #5
If you press the "next" button on Screen #4, the following screen will open:
This screen contains the code that was generated for your web page. Simply copy the html code in the top window and paste it into your web page code somewhere before the </head> tag. (To copy, highlight the code and press ctrl+c. To paste, press ctrl+v.) If you also want the subscribe button to appear on your web page (optional), copy the code from the bottom window and paste it into your web page in the exact position that you want the button to appear on your page. It's as simple as that!
Receiving Subscriber Requests
Screen #6
If you click the "Check For New Subscribers" button on Screen #1, the following screen will open:
This opens the program that will receive your subscriber requests automatically. This program will check the email address that you use for your subscribers, receive the email requests, and place all of the subscriber email addresses into a file for you. Some Prospect Subscriber users prefer to use this automated method of collecting subscriber email addresses. Others may choose to answer them one by one with their email client software (Outlook, Outlook Express, etc.), giving subscribers a more personal response. However, if you answer them manually with Outlook or Outlook Express, you will then have to manually add the subscriber email addresses to a file for future use. If you choose to use this program to receive your subscribers automatically, simply enter the mail server name for your email address (i.e. mail.your-isp.com), your username (usually the portion before the "@" character in your email address), and your email address password. Once you finish answering the questions on this screen, press the "next" button.
Screen #7
If you click the "next" button on Screen #6, the following screen will open:
This screen allows you to select or create a filename to save your subscriber request email addresses to. Click on the browse button to the right of the field to create or select a filename. Once you are finished, press the "next" button.
Screen #8
If you click the "next" button on Screen #7, the following screen will open:
This screen allows you to start and view the receiving process. You can also set a time frequency if you choose to use the auto-recheck feature. If selected, this feature will check to see if you have any new subscribers based on the frequency that you set in the drop-down menu.
