Prosender is an autoresponder program that has been around for almost a decade. It is a Mike Filsiame, from income.com, product so it has some quality and integrity behind it. Filsiame is the author of the Butterfly Marketing Manuscript and this is one of the products that he often recommends in that book. He also makes it part of his Butterfly Marketing software packagers.

Prosender is also the product that is use by 50% of the top internet marketers in the world. It is not downloadable software. It is bought by subscription so one month recurring membership costs $19.95, three months recurring costs $54.85 and an annual recurring membership costs $179.40. All of your lists are maintained on a central server owned by income.com (Mike Filsiame's company) online. The good thing about this is that if your computer crashes you will never lose your mailing list!

Prosender does have a good reputation. It is reliable cost-effective promotional tools that can help you capture visitor sign ups and then send unlimited follow up emails and newsletters. Since it was first established this program has earned a good reputation because it is fast and simple to use. The actual figure in terms of it's deliverability rate is 99.34% so you are not going to have a lot of emails bouncing back. The program allows your content to get past a lot of firewalls!

It is also a spam compliant program (meaning it has approval from business and government agencies) so you get very few complaints from new prospects when you use it. Your email is 100% legal. Although you may be emailing people with a list, they will always have a way of opting out. This can save you from dealing with hostile leads that are all to ready to report you for sending out unsolicited email.

There is not an Internet guru on the World Wide Web that does not recommend the use of an autoresponder in e-commerce or network marketing and of course the publisher of this software, Mike Filsaime, is one of them. This is because studies have shown that most people do not respond to emails until they have been sent one at least seven times. The reason you have to send out so many is so that your message can "poke out" from beneath all of the information overload that is piled on people every day.

Sending out each prospect seven emails is time consuming unless you have a program like Prosend doing it for you. These emails serve as a constant reminder to your clients that you are around, open and that you want their business. Autoresponder emails refine your business, save you time and chase your prospects for you while you concentrate on examining and expanding your business in other ways.

Yet another perk of this program is that you can choose from 51 templates so that the content that you do send out is unique. The program also has a plug-in that allows you to immediately and easily create opt in forms to put up on your website. These are those web forms that allow to ask people if they want to be part of your emailing list. You don't need to know any HTML. You simply point and click on step by step icons to create pop-ups or standard forms that are easily installed on your website without programming experience. The pop ups that are created on this program are the unblockable kind so your appeal for the email address can't be vanquished by pop up blocker program.

Of course you can also completely personalize your emails no matter what template that you choose. Configure unlimited follow up and newsletter messages with name personalization, click thru and open rate tracking, attachments, RSS, and split testing at no additional cost. You can also add your own HTML to enhance your emails, which is not allowed by some programs like this. This software has a built in HTML editor that allows you to just point and click to get the special effects that you want in the body of your email.

There are tons of ways to customize each individual email. Easy web form generator allows easy addition of opt-in forms to your website, pop-ups, pop-overs, hover pops, and exit pops along with split testing of different forms. You can choose the type of subscription form that best suits your customer base. For instance some types of subscribers resent a pop over more than they resent an exit pop up.

In each email you can easily personalize the message by using the customer's first or last name or a number of different salutations. You can also include limited time offers or attach PDFs such as free eBooks. Not every autoresponder program offered on the web will let you do that.

Yet another fantastic thing is that each autoresponder email that you send out can be easily integrated with Paypal and third party payment operations. This makes it simple for your leads to click and pay from right within the email. Some auto responder systems simply will not let you do this.

This program also comes with a good control panel. One of its major benefits is that it allows you to add new subscribers a number of different ways including by email, web forms or by using a list import functions. There are a total of 25 different fields that you can add to describe each subscriber. You are also easily able to export your list out of Prosender so you can use it for other applications.

You are also notified every time you get a new subscriber. A unique aspect is the ability to automatically capture the IP address and website address where each subscriber came from. Prosender also automatically capture geographic information such as origin Country, State, City, Postal Code, Area Code, Latitude, Longitude, and DMA code. This can help prevent your from marketing to individuals who are not likely prospects.

The program also gets rid of email addresses that are "undeliverable" after a certain amount of time so that you can always maintain a clean list. You can also prevent yourself from being spammed or harassed because you have the ability to block individual email addresses or entire domains from subscribing to your newsletter. This can help you prevent the competition from getting a peek at what you are doing. The program also saves you time by getting rid of repetitive or multiple addresses.

You can also prevent accusations of spamming by making these emails into an opt-in list where the recipients of your emails clearly have the choice to subscribe or unsubscribe to your email. You can also create a customizable subscription optimization web page that includes your company logo and your website link.

Even better Prosender allows you to be selective about who you send your emails too. You can compartmentalize your list and segment it based on your list's custom profile information.

You can also use the time delay feature to write as many newsletters as you want in advance. You can program newsletters to be sent out to your subscribers for the next ten years if you like. There is also an automatic newsletter creation function that employs RSS/XML feeds if you want to broadcast them.

Prosender is also no slouch when it comes to tracking the results of your autoresponder campaigns either. You can review your reports in real time online or have them mailed to you at regular intervals. You can easily track how many click throughs have resulted because of a campaign. The program also tracks open rates automatically. You can have all of your report data exported in CSV for usage in Excel sheets.

There are also tons of charts, graphs and statistics that you can access about your campaigns on Prosender. You can look at daily, weekly and monthly subscriber graphs that tell you all about how many of your autoresponder emails were undeliverable and how many were successful click thrus. You can also tell from looking at these reports, which subscriber ad categories are paying off for you and what country, state, city or area code the paying subscribers are coming from.

If there is one key word that would describe this autoresponder program it would be unlimited. You can have, unlimited campaigns, an unlimited amount of emails within the campaign, unlimited follow up messages. Your message length and broadcast length (should you add media) is also unlimited. The world is your oyster when you use this generous program!

Another reason why Prosender is a popular auto-responder email delivery system is because the support system department is good. They are available to assist you with the program around the clock. The program also comes with scores of free training videos as well as a well-written self help guide. The phone support and live text chat help is free.

Prosender also comes with an iron-clad money back guarantee. If they don't help build your opt-in list and convert more website visitors we'll give you a 100% no questions asked refund.
