Ecourse Wizard
=============================================================================================================================
Ecourse Wizard is noted for being one of the simpler autorepsonder systems that an affiliate marketer or ebusinss owner that can use. It has fewer options then other products on the market but this is not necessarily a bad thing. Many people prefer a control panel that allows you to simplify their life as too many options becomes a consumer of their time.

Ecourse Wizard gets its name from the idea that you can get subscribers to your site by sending them a free informational product such as an ebook, newsletter or a short mini - course. Offering visitors to your site a course will often persuade them to give you their email so you can follow up with potential prospects.

Ecourse Wizard autorespondesr are available in different types of packages that are easily upgradable. This also makes it a good choice for beginners or start-ups who don't want to spend a lot of money before they know for sure that they want to get into any kind of Internet or e-marketing type business.

Like many programs of its kind, ecourse wizard has a plug in tool that allows you to install a pop up on your website. On this pop up you will ask your website visitor if they want to subscribe to your e-course or newsletter. This is called creating a pre-qualified list. Sometimes it is also called an opt-in list.

This plug in allows you to add up to five different questions to your subscription form. This is how many Internet marketers get a lot of their market research information so they can find out what their customers are actually interested in. These types of questions are also gathered if you also intend to sell your mailing list one day. All in all you get three customizable templates to choose from.

On the most advanced membership your pop up sign up forms can be customized fields that allow for room for ten pre-defined questions, five custom questions and ten questions about demographics.

Once you have the subscriber's email address you can them unlimited follow up responder messages until the subscriber decides to opt out of the subscription. At the bottom of every email they can choose to terminate the membership. If this happens then the eCourse Wizard will no longer allow your email to be sent to them. This can save you from a lot of complaints about spamming. They can also unsubscribe via web link and a form right on your website as well as through the email link. The more ways that you give a disgruntled visitor to unsubscribe the less likely you are to be accused of sending unsolicited emails!

Furthermore eCourse Wizard offers what is called a double opt-in method of subscription, which makes it a little harder for people to sign up. Each potential subscriber is sent an email that they must follow instructions "to follow a link" before they are allowed to subscribe. This prevents people from using your opt in list to spam other people as each subscriber must confirm that they want to enroll in your course or receive your viral information.

If a member does decide to unsubscribe you are sent email notification. Thanks to an auto removal function they are never sent another email from your site again unless you allow them to by programming certain resubscribe settings. You can a program resubscribe settings to define what action to take when a former subscriber tries to join your list again. You could decide never to let people who opt out of the list opt in again unless they can provide a new address for instance.

This affordable program also has a lot of advanced email features that allow you to fully personalize your auto responder messages. The templates are based on well-known formats, layouts and approaches that are known to get reader's attention and bring marketer's higher conversion rates. This means that more subscribers will eventually become your paying clients.

There are in total over 25 personalization codes on the templates that can help make your email stand out from everyone else's. These codes can also make it seem to your respondent that you are writing to him or her personally. Yet another nice touch here is that the emails can also be customized to look like they are being sent from your personal address or business address and not from Ecourse Wizard. This also makes people less likely to treat your autoresponder emails like they are spam.

You can also change and edit your messages as often as you like, pause the campaign if you have to tweak it and schedule emails to go out at different intervals. You also have the choice of naming your lists however you want instead of just categorizing them as List 1, List 2 or List 3 as is the case sometimes with other inexpensive online auto responder programs of this type. If you are not sure that a campaign may work you can test your autoresponder messages by sending them to an email address of your choice.

If you are marketing an ezine by autoresponder then the control panel lets you customize whom you want to send it to. You can compartmentalize your mailing list so that different leads receive different materials at different times and eCourse Wizard also supports material in multiple formats including text or HTML formats. You are not stuck with sending out an attachment to an entire list - you can cherry pick through the list if you like.

Although this online subscription autoresponder service does not have the capability to analyze data in depth it is set up with a rudimentary tracking system that allows you to see how many times a link was clicked. This helps you determine which of your autoresponder messages are actually working to create customer conversions so you can use the techniques that are successful again and again on new subscribers.

You also have many options when it comes to managing your subscribers. You can import and export as many lists as you want from eCourse Wizard. You can invite, edit or deletes subscribers with just one click. You can also ban addresses from subscribing. You can even ban entire domains from subscribing if you want.

You can also view your database any time your want. This includes viewing detailed member reports. You can research name, email, date joined and subscription status of your members any time you want. Furthermore there is no danger of losing your list if your computer crashes as it will be available online for as long as you maintain your membership.

The control panel is very easy to navigate and you can set up your account within minutes. You only need a single id and login to set up all of your accounts. The well laid out control panel also allows you to create, view, delete or freeze your email marketing campaigns with just one click. The virtue is that it is very straightforward.

Why do you need a program like this? First of all studies shows that most subscribers don't even pay attention to what you are telling them until they have been sent seven or more emails. Research has also shown that sending a follow up mail to people who have visited your site can result in conversions that are 40% more or higher!

It is completely true that eCourse Wizard is the least expensive low budget version of more comprehensive programs such as ProSender or Aweber. It is also important to understand that eCourse Wizard is not a download but rather a subscription based website. A very basic membership for use of this autoresponder is only $24 a year, which works out to an affordable $2 a month. This level of membership only allows you to manage one list and is perfect for the absolute beginner who is just needing to learn the ropes.

If you want to manage more than one list you can upgrade to the Value plan, which works out to be $8 per month. This allows you to manage up to three lists from a single control panel style dashboard. This type of offer is what makes this easily the least expensibe autoresponder.

For $15 a month which is still absurdly cheap compared to most other subscription based autoresponder programs out there you can manage ten different mailing lists and list ten different accounts. This is a level of membership that would offer many beginning Internet marketers a great deal of exponential growth.

The ultra version of Ecourse wizard is $22 a month and allows you to managed unlimited autoresponders, hosting accounts and subscribers. This is very reasonable and still much cheaper then membership to similar sites that offer autoresponder memberships. This is the only level of membership that offers you unlimited access.

In a nutshell this auto responder program is easy to use, affordable and cost-effective. ECourse Wizard provides quality solutions for those Internet marketers who need to manage and operate an opt-in subscriber list effectively and with the ultimate intention of increasing sales and conversion rates.
