Automation - The Key to Success
Online
© Izzy Camacho
«¤»¥«¤»§«¤»¥«¤»§«¤»¥«¤»§«¤»
If you've been looking into selling products online then you've
probably heard some "expert" somewhere recommend that you
create
a web site that is fully automated and helps you make money 24
hours a day. While that might sound great, what they often forget
to tell you is HOW to do that.
Well, I'm going to tell you right now, in this article!
First, what IS a Fully Automated Web Site? A Fully Automated Web
Site can be defined as one that is equipped with an integrated
suite of both e-commerce and internet marketing tools in a
fashion that will allow you to be the most profitable with the
least amount of effort.
Most e-commerce systems are equipped with the following
essentials:
- A shopping cart.
- Acceptance and processing of credit cards.
- A maintenance system that allows you to add/change products.
- An order-retrieval system that enables you to fulfill orders.
However, what most of them are lacking are marketing
tools. If your website hits it big and you don't have the proper
tools in place, then you will be a slave to e-mail and order
processing. I'm sure that's not what you intended.
There are several marketing strategies that are essential in the
creation of a successful e-commerce web site:
- Email marketing (broadcasting) of prospects/customers
- Effective use of autoresponders (generate automatic email
messages)
- Online Newsletter
- Online Form / Survey to capture your prospect's email address
- Electronic Product Delivery (if you sold a digital product)
- Advertisement (Ad) Tracking
- Back End Sales
- Affiliate program
Now, if you had a system that would support the integration
of ALL of these marketing tools in addition to the
necessary e-commerce essentials, then you would have a Fully
Automated Web Site. After all, it has been shown that it often
takes 7 or more ad exposures before prospective customers
actually make a purchase. Consider the following scenario:
A prospect clicks on an advertisement in an online
magazine.
This action increments a counter for this
particular ad to
help you determine how well it's working.
They don't decide
to buy as of yet but join your newsletter.
They are now
considered a prospect. You begin to send them
a monthly
email newsletter. Additionally, an
autoresponder kicks in
to thank them for joining the newsletter as well as
scheduling them to get email twice a month for the
next 90
days reiterating your product benefits and inviting
them to
purchase.
Upon sending them one of your "juicy"
offers that they
couldn't refuse, they finally purchase. They
will
automatically be removed from your prospect list
and added
to your customer list.
Based on the particular product or service they've
purchased, they will receive a series of emails
every two
weeks for the next 6 months offering complementary
products.
This will be the engine that will drive your back
end sales
and keep your customers coming back to your web
site.
Being able to play out a scenario such as this using one
integrated system would be pretty impressive don't you think?
The internet big boys do this with expensive e-commerce platform
suites produced by vendors such as IBM, Microsoft and Oracle.
Having your system automatically perform these follow up tasks
frees you up to spend more time on your business, your health or
your family!
=====> What can you do to create a fully automated web site?
Fortunately, there are ways that you can automate your website in
much the same way that the big boys do. The best and most
cost-effective way would be to sign up with one of the handful of
Application Service Providers available on the internet which
provide a shopping cart integrated with a full suite of marketing
tools. Normally, the shopping cart and tools are very flexible
and can be incorporated into any website.
=====> Are there any other ways to automate your business besides
working with a total solution provider?
You can accomplish some level of automation without an integrated
shopping cart system, however, it will require manual
intervention and of course it would be incomplete. I believe that
the most important asset of your e-commerce business is your
email lists. Therefore, concentrate on the implementation of a
good autoresponder/list server system to "enhance" your
present
e-commerce website. There are several good ones on the market.
Look for providers that allow you to:
- Create multiple lists.
- Add prospects via a web form, email, or manually through a
management console.
- Send out an unlimited number of autoresponder messages.
- Send out an unlimited number of email broadcasts.
- Set up and distribute a newsletter.
When setting up your autoresponder system, create one list for
your "prospects" and another one for your
"customers". Now,
here's where you come in: when a person orders your product, you
will have to perform the extra task of logging into your
autoresponder system and manually remove them from the prospect
list and add them to the customer list. This action will then
trigger your customer autoresponder series of messages to be
sent.
Remember, the key to building a successful e-commerce web site is
to automate your marketing engine as much as possible and drive
your prospects and customers back to your web site. This will
certainly create a money magnet e-commerce web site for you!

HOT BIZ*TIP
_____________________
Special Characters
Have you ever needed a symbol or some other special character
like the degree symbol, the small square checkbox, the copyright
symbol, etc.? Well, they’re there, you just have to know how to
find them.
Click the Start Button, Programs, Accessories, System Tools,
then select Character Map.
You'll be presented with a screen that has lots of different
symbols. When you click (and hold) a symbol, it gives you an
enlarged preview of it.
To actually select the symbol:
1. Click the symbol you want. 2. Click the Select button, then
the Copy button.
This will copy your symbol onto the clipboard where you can then
paste it into any word processing program, email, etc.
If you find yourself using a particular symbol all the time,
check out the lower right hand corner of the window. On the
status bar, you can view the keystroke combo you can use to
generate the current character.
Now, all you have to do is hit your keystroke combo (Alt+0169)
whenever you need the beloved ©. Oh, and when you type in the
numbers, be sure to use the keypad on the right-hand side of
your keyboard, not the ones above your letter keys.
Some word processors give you direct access to the character
map. In Word for example, click the Insert menu and select
Symbol. You will be given a "customized" screen that can
automatically insert a symbol directly into your current
document. Go to the font you are using then select.
Again, if you find yourself using a particular symbol all the
time, check out the lower right hand corner of the symbol
window. On the status bar, you can view the keystroke combo you
can use to generate the current character. Here you would hit
your keystroke combo (Alt+c) whenever you need ©.
