How To Unsubscribe RocketResponder Subscribers Using Gmail Labels

Using Zapier to unsubscribe RocketResponder subscribers using Gmail Labels

There will be occasions when you want to unsubscribe people from your mailing list.

You may not have given much thought to the idea of actually unsubscribing people from your list(s) but it is actually a good idea.

A lot of email marketing software providers – especially the ones which charge users per subscriber – don’t encourage customers to unsubscribe people from their mailing lists at all.

However what is the point of sending your email marketing messages to people who no longer want to receive them?

A smaller, more targeted list, is far better than a larger list which is less responsive because many of the subscribers have lost interest over time. (more…)

Schedule Email Reminders Based On Future Events With RocketResponder

Email reminders from RocketResponder

With RocketResponder you can now send out emails to your subscribers to remind them about important upcoming events.

This could be anything from sending out a “Happy Birthday” message to reminding subscribers that they have an upcoming appointment or event to attend.

Traditionally a series of email messages is sent out to all of the subscribers on your list(s) based on the date that the subscriber signed up.

However with RocketResponder Reminders you can also send emails to individual members on your list(s) based upon an event which will happen in the future.

There are so many different ways this service can be used and it will have uses across many thousands of different niches where email marketing can be used.

Here are some examples of how to use RocketResponder Reminders:

Birthday Reminders

You can do anything from just wishing your subscribers “Happy Birthday” to sending them a special birthday discount offer or free gift.

Sending a birthday greeting or offer is a great way of showing your subscribers that you care about them and that you treat them as individuals rather than just names on a mailing list.

Medical Appointments

If you are a doctor, dentist, chiropractic, optician etc. then you can send your patients email reminders based on when their next scheduled appointment is due.

Just like regular subscriber lists you can schedule a series of emails to go out based on a future event.

So if one of your subscribers has a visit to your dental surgery for treatment you might want to send a Reminder Email series like this:

ten days before appointment – remind your subscriber about the time and location of the appointment and provide your contact details in case they have any questions. Give them information of the steps they must take if they want to reschedule.

three days before appointment – send another email about the appointment and include information about what they might need to do in advance or what they will need to bring with them or wear. For example it might be that it is important that the patient does not eat anything for a period of time before the surgery is due to take place or there may be forms or paperwork they need to bring with them.

the day before the appointment – time to send another reminder that the surgery is taking place tomorrow.

Subscripition Renewals

If your subscribers have recurring subscriptions with you then you might want to remind them of upcoming billing renewals.

This is a good time to send a series of emails reminding your subscribers of all the great benefits they have from their subscription so that you encourage more people to renew rather than allow their subscription to lapse.

Also consider giving subscribers an extra push to renew early maybe with a discount or extra month free.

Hotel bookings

Remind your customers of their upcoming booking, maybe include information about what people can do in the locality or give information about the services and facilities at your hotel.

Flight/holiday bookings

Remind your clients about their upcoming flight or holiday. This might be a good time to remind them that they might need holiday money, an up-to-date passport or travel insurance.

Car servicing/repairs

RocketResponder Reminders are ideal for situations like this. Your clients may welcome the reminder and it is good for your business by helping ensure that more people keep their appointments rather than have to reschedule because it slipped their mind.

Like everything else with RocketResponder we have kept Reminders as simple to use as possible without the need for any steep learning curve.

The examples above are only a small selection of how Reminders can work but those are just a small selection of how it can be used.

Here is how it works:

Writing the email reminders

Choose an existing list to create the reminder series of emails or create a new list and write your reminder email series – you can write just one email or several emails, it is totally up to you.

Email reminders from RocketResponder

You can be more creative with the subject lines than we were in the screenshot above. How many emails you choose to send and how many days before the event that you send them is totally up to you.

Sending the email reminders

sending email reminders is easy with RocketResponder Reminders

Remember that unlike sending broadcast messages or the regular email series to your subscribers, the reminders go to just one member and not your entire list.

To send a reminder, click on the “Add reminder” tab, and then choose the list which contains the reminder email(s) you want to send.

Next enter the name and email address of the person you want to receive the reminders, set the target date and click save.

Now that person will get the reminder emails ahead of the event which you want to remind them about.

Note that there is a ‘Repeat Yearly’ checkbox where you want the reminder to be sent at the same time every year, such as for birthday greetings.

Email Marketing For Real Estate Agents

Email marketing for real estate agentsEmail Marketing For Real Estate Agents: In the real estate industry, getting information out to clients in a timely manner can make all the difference.

It is an industry where communication is as vital to your success as is your knowledge about buying and selling property.

It is no longer good enough to wait for clients to come to you, because that is one sure method to be left behind in a highly competitive marketplace.

These days email marketing is an essential tool for real estate agents and, very often, a preferred method of communication with clients and potential new clients.

Not only it is an ideal way of effectively marketing the properties on your books but it is also an amazingly effective method of marketing your business.

An automated email service, such as RocketResponder, is also an invaluable tool for attracting new clients and obtaining more income from existing clients.

It will also allow you to effectively promote your business, help set you apart from the competition and allow you to be seen as a trusted adviser to your clients.

Attracting New Clients

Let’s face it, there is a lot of competition out there, so every new customer counts and they are not afraid to shop around.

Most of your potential new customers will want to know many of the same things…what you can do for them? how experienced you are in the market? will you will do a good job for them? how efficient are you? can you be trusted? and so on.

You have probably explained these things to people over and over again, but have you considered how email marketing could be of huge benefit to get these messages to your potential new customers?

With RocketResponder you could write a series of emails covering the things that new clients really want to know when deciding on where to place their business.

You do the work once and the emails are sent out to every potential new client who signs up to your email list.

Once the emails are written, there is no more work needed on your part and everybody who joins your email list will receive the information they need about your business.

When email marketing like this is done correctly, then it can really help you convert potential leads into new customers.

Gaining More Income From Existing Clients

Email marketing is also great for informing and reminding existing clients about the full range of services that you provide.

Timely reminders, sent via email, can be that final push that is needed for a customer to take an additional service that might otherwise have slipped their mind (or gone to a competitor).

You can embed links in your emails to take subscribers to the precise page you want them to visit, such as a sales page for the service you are promoting.

Here is an example of one of our many email templates which can be customized with drag-and-drop simplicity:

Promoting your business

Email marketing will allow you to effectively communicate with an audience which has already shown an interest in what you have to say.

Remember that people will sign up for your email list to receive offers, information, details of properties they may be interested in, insider news, time saving tips and much more.

Use email marketing to promote your business and explain why you should be the first choice for the customers you are targeting.

Setting Your Business Apart From The Competition

RocketResponder can help set you apart from the competition by allowing you to give everyone the personal touch they really crave.

You can also showcase your expertise in the market and the knowledge and helpfulness of your staff by sending emails which help your client and, at the same time, highlight the qualities that make you the right choice for buyers and sellers.

The great news is that this does not take up lots of your valuable time because the system is highly automated and about as easy to use as sending regular email.

Become a Trusted Adviser

Building up trust with your customers is probably more important in the real estate industry than many others.

Write emails specifically aimed at buyers, sellers and renters so that your advice is always relevant to your target market.

Moving home can be a highly stressful time and your clients will want to be 100% assured that you will get everything right.

The pointers above gave just some of the ways why using RocketResponder for your email marketing will boost your business and help you gain trust among your client base.

RocketResponder is like having a sales person who works for you 24 hours a day 7 days a week and who never gets tired.

Email Marketing For Small Businesses

Email Marketing For Small Businesses with RocketResponder

One really powerful way of getting the very best out of your customers is email marketing. This is why RocketResponder has taken a lot of care to look at how it provides email marketing for small businesses.

You may be missing out on income from your customers simply because they are not thinking about you. Email marketing ensures that your business, and your offers, will regularly be in their email inbox.

These are some reasons why small business owners may not use email marketing:

– It sounds too complicated for me, I don’t want to have to learn something new.

– I don’t have time for email marketing because I am too busy running my business.

– I don’t know how to use email marketing. What would I even write about?

– It is just another cost to spiral out of control.

At RocketResponder we know that these are all very real concerns which is why we decided to make email marketing for small businesses simple, quick and easy to use with a fixed price plan so that costs can never spiral out of control.

We know how important email marketing is to small businesses which is why we have come up with a solution which business owners can confidently use to boost their interaction with customers.

Is It Really Not Complicated?

Using RocketResponder is not complicated at all. In fact if you can send regular email then you can use our software to communicate with your entire customer database.

RocketResponder - Email Marketing for Small  Businesses

Choose one of our stunning templates and just drag and drop images and text blocks into the email to get a professionally looking email composed without needing to know any coding skills at all.

It might look something like this…

Or this…

An example of a RocketResponder email template

If you prefer you can just send out a simple, text only email without any fancy graphics at all…the choice is totally yours.

One of our top priorities was ensuring that RocketResponder was not difficult to use. It is as simple as writing your email, deciding which list(s) you want to send it to and then choosing when you want to send it.

We also understand that with any new system, people will sometimes run into difficulties so when you need help we are there to get your problem solved quickly and efficiently. This is both easy and fun to use.

But I still don’t have time for email marketing…

There is one thing that virtually all of your customers will have in common…they will want information about the goods or services you provide.

RocketResponder allows you to ensure that every customer gets high quality information from you as soon as they subscribe to your list.

Here’s how it works.

You write a series of emails which will be received by all new customers over a period of days, weeks or months after they subscribe to receive information from you.

These could include a welcome email where you thank them for subscribing, an email introducing yourself and your business, one explaining how they can contact you and where they can get help if things go wrong, another about what set’s you apart, an email or two with useful information about the niche you operate in…that sort of thing.

Just choose the topics you would like to read about if you were a new customer to your business and start writing. (If you don’t like the thought of writing emails, you can outsource this to someone else for very little cost.)

You only have to write these emails once, decide the time interval you want them to be delivered and then every time a new subscriber signs up to your email list they will get the emails delivered without any further work needed on your part.

No customer is missed out and everything you want them to know about your business is communicated to them without you having to interrupt your working day for a moment.

You can also send emails out to your entire list whenever you want…such as when you have an offer or promotion you want to highlight or a special time-limited deal on your website or in store.

RocketResponder is designed to allow efficient communication with your customers while taking up as little of your time as possible.

I still don’t know what to write about…

The section above gave some suggestions about to the kinds of things you could send out in your emails.

If you still need some ideas then just think of the questions that your customers ask all the time.

Is there some advice that new customers want time and time again or some particular information about the products or services you offer? If so, then write about that.

You could send out a regular newsletter to your subscribers, give tips and hints about the industry you work in, use RocketResponder to give exclusive discount codes to your subscribers or to alert them first on red hot offers you have coming up.

Once you start thinking about it you will come up with many ideas for ways to use email to communicate with your customers and potential customers.

I am worried about another uncontrolled business expense…

You can stop worrying. We know that small business owners like to know what their business expenses are going to be ahead of time…so we have taken care of that.

Most email marketing services set their charges based on how many subscribers have joined their list…the more subscribers you attract then the more you pay in monthly fees.

Others will charge based on how many emails you send out and with these price plans it is impossible to calculate how much you will pay in advance.

RocketResponder is much simpler than all that. There is one small monthly flat fee which stays the same regardless of how many people you add to your list or how often you communicate with your subscribers.

Business owners have told us that price certainty is something that is important to them and we have listened.

Small Businesses thrive off repeat customers. People have busy lives and your customers will need to be reminded to comeback and buy from you. The best way to do this is through email.

RocketResponder is like having a sales person who works for you 24 hours a day 7 days a week and who never gets tired.
