Free PLR Download, Universal Infographic Option, & Advice on Autoresponders
Published: Sun, 05/12/19
I hope everyone has a wonderful Mother's Day! Dylan had to come over Friday to visit me for it since he has to work today, but I'm spending my day with Shawn and Scarlett. Planning on making a delicious Taco Soup for us to enjoy. It's been a little chilly - 50s and 60s, so the warm soup will be nice. It's supposed to warm up to the 80s this coming week, and I wish the sun would dry up all this rain we've been having so I can mow the backyard before it turns into a jungle! LOL
Okay so here are a couple of things to show you:
#1 - Finally - a Universal Infographic Option! (And What I HATE About Others)
I'm SO glad to see this. I love infographics. They stand out and give a nice cheatsheet type summary for any niche. But what I always hated were the pre-themed versions of them.They were SO hard to work with.
So for instance, I might be in the health niche and want to use an inforgraphic but all the ones I find are so specific with images and graphics that they don't quite fit what I wanted to say.
I've ALWAYS wanted something more generic that would fit ALL my niches and where I wouldn't have to work so hard making my content tips fit into the image.
I found it in these:

Now I wanted to show you something about what's wrong with MOST infographics and why I loved the ones I linked to above.

#3 - Advice for Choosing an Autoresponder Service
Aside from time and location freedom, the biggest benefit to starting an online business is the lack of start-up capital required. You don’t have to buy inventory to stock a store. You don’t have to spend a lot on equipment.You don’t have to shell out cash for employees and insurance and all those other costs associated with offline businesses.
But that low-cost mentality can cause you to lose sight of the bigger picture, too.
While it is possible to start a business without spending any money at all, it’s truly not a good idea. That free hosting account will no doubt have downtime issues (not to mention the ads they’ll serve up to your visitors that cause link leakage - UGH!).
Free word processors will have compatibility issues with other, more common solutions. Free WordPress themes and plugins can have support issues.
So while bootstrapping is a good thing, making business decisions based solely on cost is not. And nowhere is that more true than when it comes to choosing an email autoresponder system.
Deliverability Issues
Here’s the biggest problem I see with low-cost providers, including those you install and manage yourself: deliverability. Email services such as Yahoo, Gmail, and others vigorously defend their users’ accounts against spam, and will often mark your legitimate email as spam, simply based on the IP address it originates from.
Large email list providers have the resources to fight these false spam reports and keep their deliverability rates high. That’s what their users pay for. But when you choose a free or low-cost provider (or manage your own server), this might not happen. Over time, you’ll see your deliverability rates plummet.
Limited Features
Deliverability aside, many low-priced providers can afford to charge lower rates because they limit the features. For example, you might only be able to collect 500 addresses, or you may only be able to send a few emails each month. Even worse, you may not be able to segment your list or automate your emails.
Before you make the choice to use a low-priced or free email provider, make sure you fully understand the limitations of the account. While some concessions might be okay with you, others might put a serious crimp in your business-building efforts.
Finally, keep in mind that changing providers later (when you’re “ready”) can be a huge undertaking. You’ll have multiple landing pages and opt-in forms to edit, connections with your shopping cart, webinar host, social media accounts, and countless other integrations to deal with.
And you’ll have a list of names to import to your new provider, many of which will either opt-out or be undeliverable at your new host.
Rather than go through all that trouble, the better option is to choose the right provider from the start, and if cost is an issue, create a plan to cover the expense instead of settling for the wrong service.

Okay I'm off to enjoy my Mother's Day! Hope you do, too. I'll be thinking of my Dad today - I always gave him a Mother's Day card because he was Mr. Mom AND Dad to me. Very nurturing. I miss him so much.
