Set your Auto Responder Settings Correctly
I received an embarrassing email in my box this weekend. It had this as a subject line:
Hi !firstname_fix}, This set a record at Clickbank
!Firstname_fix? The worst part is that is from a very well known, highly successful internet marketer. You probably know his name. In fact, maybe you saw this as well. I know his list is very large.
This is a problem with the email auto responder setting. If you are going send out an email blast, marketing gurus, please make sure your auto responder is set up properly. My name is not !firstname_fix}.
That is a really quick, quick way to get your email deleted before being read.

Hi Frank,
That sure is annoying, and I am actually on that marketer’s list too. Anyhow, thanks for your comment on my blog. Its very flattering as I am a big fan of your blog and its in my RSS reader. And actually yes I am more the empire builder type of entrepreneur which means I like to hold on to my company.
Thanks for your advice and have a great day!
Dominic
