Email programs tend to allow their users to add a signature line at the end of all emails that they send. This signature line is automatically attached to your messages by your email program and can include information like your name, web address, phone number, and slogan.



Adding a signature line to your emails can expose your company to individuals who would otherwise be unaware of the products and services it offers. The information in your signature line will be sent to anyone you write to as well as people who receive a forwarded message from you.

Creating a mailing list and using an autoresponder to stay in touch with them is a great way to use email as a publicity tool. An example of this would be to create an e-course on a subject that goes along with something you are promoting. For instance, if your target market is new mothers that are interested in health topics, you can create an e-course on the health benefits of making your own organic baby food.

There are many autoresponder services to choose from, so do a little research and find one that fits your needs and budget. When you sign up with one, you will be able to create forms to gain subscribers. When you create a form, you will be given a small amount of HTML that you can install on your website or blog. An opt-in box will appear on your page, and when people fill out their name and email, they will be added to your list of subscribers.

You do not have to write a new email only when it is time to send more emails to your subscribers. Emails can be written before you want them sent and then loaded into your autoresponder with instructions to not send them for a certain number of days. Many e-courses send a new email out every day, starting with a letter of introduction to the e-course on day one.

Emails that you send with an autoresponder should all include some kind of call to action. If you design an e-course for organic baby foods, use this as an opportunity to include affiliate links to e-books or links to any other product that you are working to promote or sell.

The Internet is the best place to get information on any topic you want and email is a great way to get that information to your customers will simultaneously marketing your products and services.
