Well, guess what? I made a bunch of them!

I wanted to let you know that even successful marketers do make mistakes in our businesses.

My good friend, Kelly McCausey, who I admire a lot, even admits to making one recently.

Want to know what it was? Here's the dirt...

There are two reasons I'm sending you that link.

1. So you let yourself off the hook for being human. Heck, we ALL are. At the moment, my dog is EATING a big fat rat and I'm freaking out. No one's life is perfect. (And, did I mention that I HATE rats?!)

2. I'm also telling you about this because I'd like you to consider signing up for the WC. It's not just fun, but it's a pretty cool deal. (If I didn't believe in it, I wouldn't be a regular featured contributor.)

Well, that's it for today. I really hope you have a great weekend.

Warmly,
Nicole

“I *heart* my autoresponder”

Do you think that's too geeky?

I am a woman in love with my autoresponder and I want the world to know!

Ok, I'm joking a little. But all joking aside, an autoresponder is an invaluable tool. I know my business would suffer without mine.

What is an autoresponder?
An autoresponder is a business partner. It sends your messages out automatically easy as pie — whether you are at your computer or not.

Some examples:
* My newsletter gets delivered to you through my autoresponder.
* If you signed up for my ecourse, you received it through my autoresponder, automatically, whether I was at my computer or playing Whack-a-Mole at Chuck E Cheese.
* If you've ever ordered anything online, you probably received a confirmation email automatically through … you guessed it – an autoresponder.

If you are in Direct Sales, you might be wondering what this has to do with you. Well, my friend Annette wrote a great article that ran in last month's issue of the WC citing several ways to make your Direct Sales business more efficient and more effective by using an autoresponder.

You see, Annette is a busy lady.
She successfully runs her Direct Sales business. She homeschools. AND she does all the other important stuff that we WAHMs juggle every day. How's she do it? Well, I'll let her tell you about it in her article.

Her autoresponder even trained her downline and followed up with her leads while she was on a company cruise. You can't beat that!

If you own an online business not related to Direct Sales, your business could also benefit from an autoresponder. You can automate your contests, write ecourses, manage all your newsletters in one place (even family ones), follow-up with customers and more.

Here's a free trial for the autoresponder that I *heart* –

So now you know why I love my autoresponder.

Speaking of love, I just posted a picture from my vow renewal this summer. See the post below.

Maybe I'll get a “I (heart) my hubby” bumper sticker instead.

Have a great day!
Nicole
