online business so consider subscribing for more videos just like this one and I'll list all the tools and services I'm going to be using down below in the description so you can check them out at any point of this video so this is a get response tutorial for beginners it's actually part of my 6 episode email marketing series here on YouTube where I show you how you can build an email marketing system from start to finish so if you're completely new to email marketing I highly recommend to watch this series there will be a card in the top right corner now where you can start to watch the first episode however if you simply want to get started with get response you're already watching the perfect video so just keep watching to get started to go down to the description of this video and click on the first link there it will take you to the get response website where you can sign up for a 30 day free trial so make sure to use that link and we'll move on from there all right so we're now on the get response website where you can sign up for your free trial and we're gonna click on sign up for free and this will take us to the signup page where you can enter our name or email address and our password once you've done that just click on create account I've already done that and once you click on create account you will get to the next website where it tells you you need to activate your account with get response so you need to go to your email address that you've entered on the last page and it will look like this so what you got to do now is just click on activate my account so we're gonna do that now to finish our sign up we just need to fill out this form and then click on take me to my account all right so we're now inside of our get response dashboard and what we're gonna do is we're gonna navigate through everything real quick to kind of get you an overview of how to navigate through your account so up top we have our contacts and this is where you manage all of your emails that you're getting your email addresses that you're getting and your different email lists so if you already have an a list of emails you can import it here and you can move around email addresses to different lists you can segment lists and stuff like that then you have email marketing the only thing I use here is at the newsletter so for example once I when I upload a video to youtube I will just write a quick email and send it out to my subscribers to let them know that I have just posted something on YouTube and they can watch it if they want I don't really do auto responders here because it's really redundant if you use the automation option here which is really nice so what you can do here is you can prepare your emails and then you can manage you can build workflows to to kind of automate different things you can you can send emails in a sequence and then for example if somebody clicks on a link you send them a different email and if somebody doesn't open an email you just wait three days and then you're gonna send the same email again but with a different title for example so so have a lot of options here and in a later part of this email marketing series I'm going to show you exactly how to build these these workflows so they they are automated and everything it's perfect and then you have landing pages so we're going to need landing pages for people to sign up for your email list and you have the ability to build them inside of get response which is really nice and then it will automatically import the email addresses that you're getting from that landing page to your contacts to your email list so also this is something that we're gonna take a look at later and you have more options like you can do webinars forms and surveys in CRM to be honest I've never done anything with these so I'm not gonna cover them in this beginner tutorial but you can check them out if you want now you also have on your dashboard some Quick Links just so it can create a landing page real quick or create a newsletter so you don't have to navigate through the tabs up here and you have some some statistics you have your list statistics where you see how many email subscribers you've gained in a day and how many you have in total and things like that you can all you can move all of these things around you can adjust it however you want but I would suggest you just let it like it is until you feel really comfortable with using that response and then you can just adjust it to your liking down below you also have some tutorials which are really nice I haven't seen them for a long time but I've took their list building course lately and I have to say it's a really good information it's very really thorough so there are a lot of different videos that you can watch there and yeah I suggest you go through it if you have time you definitely will learn a lot and it's totally free so so why not take that and also you can if at some point you want to promote get response they have really awesome affiliate program where you can earn recurring revenue so if at some point you want to promote it I feel free to do so it's a very good service and then on the left side here you also see chat 24/7 this is like really awesome whenever you have a problem or something you don't know how something works just go on on the chat here and then you just can click start chat and just start chatting immediately you don't have to go through some complicated a contact form or something so you can just start chatting with somebody from get response and they will be able to solve your problem really quickly so yeah this is really nice to have and it saves you a lot of time so the first thing that we're going to do now is set up the email address that you'll be using to send out your emails from for this we go to the top right corner and click on manage account then on the left side we click on email addresses there you already see your email that you've used to sign up for get response and that's probably a Gmail or a hotmail or AOL or whatever you're using what you should do here is actually enter the email address of the domain that you own so for example for me it would be Simon at learn passive income comm or Simon at infant grand comm these are the domains that I own and the problem if you would use this your gmail or your hotmail or whatever if you would use this one to send out emails from is that they are very likely to land in the spam folder of your subscribers so your subscribers won't end up reading your emails so eventually we want to get a domain if you don't already have one to do email marketing if you don't already have a domain I have linked the description of the website hosting service that I am using if you want to check that out but for now if you don't have domain and you don't want to set I set up one right now you can just use your gmail address or whatever is in there right now to set everything up and then once you start getting getting email addresses and you want to send out emails you can change your email address you can get the domain then and you can change out your email address and that's no problem but if you have a domain I would just use this so go to add email and then type in your name and the email address that you'll be using so for me it's Simon add learn Pat passive income comm and then click on add address then you have second address this is now unconcern and what we need to do is go to my inbox for this email and then click on the link that they sent me just to confirm that this is actually the email that I own and then once this is done I can change this one to the default and I can always use the my email from my domain so the emails will actually land in the Inbox so once we've done that we can go back to the dashboard perfect so what we're going to do now is set up our email list we already have an email list that has been automatically created for us but we're just going to create one so we know how all the settings are and we can customize the list how we want it so we go to contacts on the top on the top here go to contacts and then click on create list on the right here then you can name the list whatever you want and I'm just going to name it get response tutorial just because this is a tutorial and you see that it has already been taken no it's you can't use underscores so I'm just gonna type it in like this and now it says you only can use low case letters so I'm just gonna change everything to low case and then it should actually work it already exists okay so now we have tried everything that doesn't work so if the list already exists then you need to change it change the name so I'm just gonna add one and then it should actually work okay perfect so now it works I get response tutorial one is it's my email list and now I go to the three dots on the right corner here on the right side and get go to settings okay once I'm in the settings I can give the list a title I would suggest you give the list a title because if people unsubscribe from your list they will see that title otherwise they will probably see this one which doesn't look nice so yeah just name it whatever you want I will damages that response tutorial now you can use spaces like this call a description you can also do a description I'm not going gonna do that now a category so for example if you have a lot of different categories that that you're using this marketing for you can divide it for me for example I would do internet marketing which fits pretty well and then for the language chooses German for me because I live in the German part of Switzerland but I always use English because I'm communicating in English so it makes sense to to choose English here and then the the show post address in message footer if you have this on then it will just show your address on the footer of every email that you send out and I personally don't do this I don't think it needs to have my address in every email so I turn this off but this is up to you and then if you have a logo of your company or your business you can upload it so that when they get the confirmation message that they have signed up for an email list they will see that logo and they can click on it and they will get to the website that you enter in here so you can enter your homepage or just a website that you want and yeah so they can click on that on that logo and that will get to your website so once we've set everything up here we click on safe general settings and we can go to the next tab up here which is subscription here the first thing is Senne subscription notifications I turn this off because if you have it on it will send you a notification whenever somebody subscribes to your email list and for me I get enough emails as it is so I don't need to get a Connaught ofin every time somebody signs up then the next thing is additional confirmation double opt-in now this is something that can be important this means if you have to if you have turned it on like this if somebody signs up for your email list on your landing page they will get another email where they have a link they need to click to to confirm again that they actually want to be on your email list and get emails from you now there are certain advantages if you do this for example you won't get any fake emails or email emails that don't exist email addresses that don't exist some people like to just enter some random email just so they see what happens if they click on confirm or download or whatever is on your landing page and that's actually bad for you because if you have a lot of fake emails and emails they don't exist in your list and you will send emails to them they won't be delivered and email providers will notice that your emails won't get delivered and you'll end up being flagged as a spammer your email address will be flight and your emails will all end up in the spam folder so you your real subscribers won't even get your your emails so this is why it's a good idea to turn this on I have to be honest I currently don't have this turned on because my landing page I'm sending out an e-book and I'm telling people that I will send the e-book to their email so I'm really not getting any fake emails because they know if they put I win a fake email they won't get the e-book but I'm planning on actually activating this once I have set up my website for the confirmation page but like I said this is up to you I think it's a good idea to do it and also depending on how your landing page looks like but what I will get if you use the get response cost the gut response default page they will go to to this page they will just see thank you for subscribing as confirmed and has been added to this list so they actually see the name of your list so also be aware of that that they can actually see what your list is called if you use the default confirmation page if you have a custom URL like you have a website and you design a thank-you page where you have another video or another article or an offer something you can enter it in this in this tab here and then they will just go to the website that you enter once they get once I click on the confirmation link in the confirmation email if you don't have it just click on get response the default and then the unsubscribe page if somebody clicks an unsubscribe on the bottom of your emails they will get to this page you can really change it it's just a default the default get response page unsubscribe success page you can see how it looks like you can also index in search engines but I actually have turned this off but that's up to you and then we again which we click on save subscription settings now I have turned the double opt-in on and if you have turn it on you can go to the confirmation message which will be sent once somebody signs up on your landing page and you can choose HTML or plain text I always choose plain text because with HTML it's more likely to that you end up in the spam folder and we don't want that so I choose plain text and then you have different subject lines that you can choose for your confirmation message this really depends on what your the context of the signup process of your subscribers for example if you give away an e-book it might make sense to or if you're delivering something it might make sense to just product delivery confirmation to use this one or if it's just to sign up for a newsletter if just ask them sign up for my newsletter then just use this for example the name and then newsletter subscription confirmation whatever is like every whatever fits to your system and then like I see I already have the default email changed to my my personal email from my domain but if you don't have a domain you can use the Gmail just make sure that at some point you at some point you actually have a domain and use this email here and then also you can change the reply and so if somebody replies to your emails it will go to another email for example I can choose it that our replies go to this email actually and not to the ones through email that I've sent the email from but I just leave it like this and then for a confirmation message you also have different templates you can't really customize the message all the way but you have some options that you can choose again and this is really depends on what you are what your system looks like for me for example I give away an e-book for people to sign up for my email list so I would choose this for example a book request and then I would type in something like hi and then this message would come your request for my ebook has been received blah blah blah and then they have this this link here where they can click and then I just type in my name down below and that's it so once everything's set up click on save confirmation message so now we have set up our list and we can see it if you go to contacts we can see that we have now two different email lists alright so I am now back inside of the gut response dashboard and what we're going to do now is we're going to set up a simple landing page where we can send people to so they can subscribe to our email list to do that we're just going to click on landing pages up top here and we're going to click on create a landing page then you're gonna see some templates that you can use that get response provides and if you want you can just scroll down and see if you find something that will really fit to what you want to create and I personally like if it's very simple simple landing pages tend to convert the best so what we're going to do now is we're just gonna build one from scratch but feel free to just browse through here maybe you'll find something that you really really like so I'm gonna click on build from scratch and then it really doesn't matter which one you choose here I just choose the plain template ten and I'm just going to leave everything anyway so this will work so select template and then we have to give the landing page a name I'm just going to name it example and the name that you enter here will later be displayed on the web browser of people who visit your landing page so for example this is the landing page that I'm using right now to send my audience to and I'm gonna I'm giving away an e-book that I've wrote about affiliate marketing and so you see on the top here I've made I named it affiliate marketing ebook and this is actually the website or the landing page that we're gonna create in this tutorial and just so you see how it works and you see it's really simple it's got a white background just some text and a picture and the signup form so on the top you just want to have some some text that that makes the people who visit the landing page when I get what you're giving away so I have entered what is inside of this ebook what they will learn when they read this ebook and also said that I'm gonna send them this ebook to their email INBOX so so I make sure that they actually enter their email in their actual email that they own so now you can name it whatever makes sense for your case and then click on next step perfect so now we're in the kind of design tool of get response and if you like this layout here you can just use this you can enter your logo you can use this and replace it with join my newsletter or something if you don't have a lead magnet to giveaway I suggest that you actually give something away because you're going to build your list much faster if you're giving something away so for me I'm just gonna delete everything here and I'm just gonna build mine from scratch so on the left side you have two different things you can enter here there's text there's a picture a button a signup form so what I'm using for my landing page is I'm gonna use text on the top and also text above the signup form then we're gonna also drag in a signup form and we're going to choose the static form and also I'm going to insert a picture of my ebook that I'm giving away so the first thing I'm gonna do is just replace this image here with the picture of my ebook so I'm going to click on replace alright I've already uploaded the picture and if you haven't uploaded anything yet you just click on upload file and then it will appear here so you can choose from your pictures so I'm going to use the picture here and if you want to learn how to make this kind of 3d mock-up of your ebook or checklist or whatever you're giving away I mention how to do this in my lead magnet video which is a previous episode of this email marketing series alright so to kind of have this in the whole frame I'm clicking on the crop I can here and then drag this down so everything's inside of the frame then I go back to this I can here so I can adjust the the size of it so this looks about right I'm just gonna drag it a little bit to left and I think it looks good there so now I'm just gonna enter the text up top here you just kind of make this a little bit faster I'm gonna copy it from the already finished landing page and I'm just gonna copy paste it like this and here again you just want to kind of make it look nice you want to drag it out so it's easy to read and you can also add bullet points and this is now great color you can you can change the color by going here and then change it to whatever you want so you can do it red or whatever I just tend to do it simple and black like this and also I highlight stuff by just doing it bold you can do it like this and stuff like yeah you see what I'm talking about and also here the text you just want to type in something like enter your email name and email to get my my free whatever you're giving away or enter your name and email to join my newsletter so I'm just again gonna copy this and paste it in here and then Center the text then drag this down a bit like this yeah this on top I'm not going to spend too much time because the video would be too long but you kind of get what I'm what I'm doing here and you can always preview what you've done by clicking preview up here and then you're going to see how it will look like for people so now they can enter their name and their email address and then click sign up so just gonna close this up again so once you think it looks nice you can also change the button to download or whatever you need it to be once you've finished this you want to make sure to also check out how it looks on the mobile version and you do that by clicking on the little mobile phone up here and you see that it doesn't look very good the text is very small up top then the picture is too big and then the text is too big here so you just want to adjust it again so that it looks looks good also for users who should see it on their phone once this is done you can go to the Thank You page the Thank You page is what they will see after they have signed up their name and email address so if you if you want to send them to a custom website or an affiliate and offer something and you don't have to do this you can just in a next step you can enter the URL that you want to send them to after they have entered their their details here but if you just want to have the regular Thank You page you can use this one again if this is the layout that you like you can use this what I have done for mine is I have just added a picture and a text I've just typed in something like thank you go check your inbox because I'm sending them the e-book to their inbox then Center make it bold to make a little bit bigger and you can also make it like green for like successful or something like this Center this year yeah kind of like this and then I'm also going to just end add a random picture I'm mostly to this one like this this is like an emoji from telegram that you can you can find on Google alright so again you can preview it how it will look when people sign up okay looks good to me so this is finished again we want to check if it also looks good for the mobile version okay looks good to me so we can now move on once we have set up everything for our landing page to the next step so up top on the right corner click next step all right so the name we've already entered this is already in here you can also give it a description if you want if you don't want to index it in the search engine so if you don't want to have people you want people to be able to find it on Google or Bing you want to take this one but yeah I don't really care so I'm not gonna take it then you have the possibility to use your own domain for your landing page so if you have an own domain you can click on add a new domain and then select it here but what you have to do that this actually works you have to add a cname entry to your subdomain if you're using a subdomain or change your DNS settings if you're ascending if you want to display your main domain for me I'd use the sub domain so you see it's called ebook dot learn passive income com so I added a cname record on my web hosting provider so this works if you have trouble doing this then just contact your support from your web hosting provider and they will help you out setting this up but if you don't have a domain you have this URL here and you can adjust this part you can enter like something like free marketing ebook and then the last part is going to be gr8 calm or subscribe subscribe me now calm or get response pages calm I in the past I just used the gr8 calm which is fine alright so this is what's going to be displayed in the URL up top here and then we have to choose a list and the list we're going to choose here is the list that the email addresses that are signing up on a landing page will be sent to so in the previous episode we've created our get response tutorial one list so I'm going to choose this one also you can again decide if they have to do the confirm opt-in or not confirm often means that once they sign up on your landing page they have to once again confirm and that they actually want to be signed up for your email list by clicking on the link in the email that they will get once they they sign up on your landing page so whatever you need here just turn it off or on then you can add it to a cycle day this is for autoresponders if you have up if you have set up an autoresponder sequence that you're sending everybody who signs up for your email list you can decide on which day they should enter this cycle I personally don't use autoresponders because I use the automation flow feature and get response so I'm not gonna gonna take this here I'm gonna show you how to set up this workflow later now the Thank You page like I said you can use the default Thank You page this is a Thank You page that we have created before with the go check your inbox and if you want to send them to a custom website after they've signed up you can just type the website in here so for example if I would send them to an affiliate offer then I would just enter my affiliate link in here so they can sign up you have their email and also they will see the affiliate offer afterwards so you might end up making a sale after they've signed up already cool so for now we're just going to use the default thank-you page that we've created and and move on so analytics and remarketing we're not going to use but you can do some some tracking some add some pixel or pixels or whatnot but we're not going to cover it in this tutorial cool so once you have this set up you're basically finished setting up your landing page and you can click publish all right so well done you can see your landing page at and then you see your link that you have created for your landing page so let's go check it out how it looks it looks awful of course because I haven't spent any time doing it but this is where you're going to send people to to this URL and then people will enter their they're details so for me for example Simon and then I'm just gonna enter one of my emails to see if it works so I'm just gonna click on download and then you see the Thank You page thank you go check your inbox again this could be any page you want it could be like oh it's subscribe to my youtube channel or check out this product or watch this video whatever you want cool so now somebody has subscribed to our list via our landing page and let's go check if it's actually in our list okay so in our dashboard we see that for our list that we have assigned our landing page to we still have zero subscribers and the reason is because we have entered the confirm opt-in for for our list and that's why the person who has entered that email first has to click on the link and that they've now got via email from get response so I'm just gonna quickly go into my email and click on that link and then you're gonna see that the new contact will appear here on your list alright so I have now confirmed the sign up by clicking on the link in the email and let's now reload the website to see if something changed perfect so now we have our first subscriber here in our list so you see if somebody enters their email on your landing page it will go to this list and you're ready to basically send them your first email your welcome email or any anything that you want basically and that's what we're going to do next we're going to set up our welcome email all right so to set up our welcome email within get response we go to back to our dashboard and then we can click on automation once you're here click on automation messages on the top you can also do this with auto responders but I suggest use automation messages because then you have a lot more possibilities later and because we're going to be setting up workflows which is very nice so just go on automation messages and then click on create draft now we have to choose a list that our email should be linked to and I'm gonna choose the list that we have created before which is get response tutorial one and then we have to type in a message name this message name will not be seen by anybody but you this is more so that you have the overview of all your messages so for me if I have a sequence I normally type in this is the first email so one and then what kind of email it is so this would be the welcome email and then the subject line is what they will see on their email in their email inbox before they open your email and this is quite important because this kind of determines if they actually will open your email or not it's not so much important for the welcome email because they will probably check your inbox any way to find your email and open it because there they want to get whatever you're sending them or they just signup for a reason on your landing page but for your further emails along the way you kind of want to find a way to to make maybe a little bit click Beatty so that people actually want to click on it and but don't go too much over the top because it really pisses people off when you just type in something crazy and then the email is very boring so um yeah just kind of experiment a little bit with that it's kind of like on YouTube with thumbnails it's very important that the thumbnail looks good so whether people actually click on your videos it's the same with emails basically and you kind of stand out but for the welcome email we can just type and welcome and if you're for example giving away an e-book like I am say something like here's your ebook dot dot dot and if you want to stand out a little bit in the inbox you can also add emojis to the subject and here's the emoji sign that you can click on and then choose any emoji here so it kind of stands out with color and everything when your subject is finished you can decide what email address you're sending your email from so I'm setting is it from this email and you can also change to reply so if they reply to your email which email address should receive that reply once that's at once that is set up we can go to next step and then just like with the landing pages we have a lot of templates that you can choose from I'm not a very big fan of these templates because they just kind kind of look like every other spam email that people get nowadays so I try to make it as personal as possible and to just kind of look like a friend who's emailing them and that's also a lot easier to not end up in a spam folder if you just use text instead of all of these different pictures and and graphics and stuff like that so what we're gonna do is we're gonna start from scratch so click on start from scratch and then I just use the blank template done below here alright so now we're in our where we can write our emails and on the right side just like with landing pages you have different things you can just drag in so I'm just gonna use text for now so I'm gonna drag in a text block and you can basically just start typing so for the welcome email we would just say something like hey and also we can enter the name again that they've used to sign up on your landing page so if they entered hey if they entered like Simon that would say hey Simon and then you can say something like thanks thank you for signing up for my email news letter or something along these lines and give them whatever they whatever the reason was to sign up for your own your landing page like if you if you're giving when Evoque you can insert the download link for your ebook in this email so to enter a link here you can just type and click here to download your ebook and then to make this a clickable link just highlight it and then go to to the link icon here and then you can type in the URL so just to demonstrate it I'll type in Google but here you would type in the download link or the Dropbox link or whatever and where we have your your lead magnet that you will send it be sending them cool so now it is blue it is a hyperlink so people can click on it and I tend to do it also bold so it's it stands out a little bit and maybe even add something like this all right and I mostly use the font verdana because I think it looks nicest and I change the font setting the font size to 14 and what you also want to make sure is that you don't just write like long paragraphs because that's really dangerous that your email will not be read because it just looks overwhelming and just do a lot of spaces in your email kind of spread it out a little bit to make it very easy to digest and so what I also do is I I kind of structure it by by highlighting some parts like like something like this and then text goes on here and then you can highlight this by making it bold like this and so yeah you have to experiment a little bit but kind of structure it out like this and once you've done writing your welcome email what I also do is something like talk soon Simon and you wanna make sure everything is the right font like this and then I also insert a picture of myself on in the end of the email just so people kind of it's easier for them to remember me and also it kind of builds trust so you can also choose a logo or something and from your company so if you just click on it you can choose an image you can upload something here and I've already uploaded image of myself so I'm gonna choose this one and I'm gonna make a little bit smaller this is a too big here so kind of like this and then just the the frame here like this yeah so now we have a picture of itself on the bottom of your email which it makes a little bit more personal but yeah you want to take some time to to write this email you want to make a little bit personal you wanna kind of tell them what they can expect you want to also tell them where they can unsubscribe that you can unsubscribe on the bottom of every email that you sent them just so you don't get people who don't want to see your emails because there will be bad for your email eventually because you're gonna end up in the spam folder and another thing too to prevent from going into the spam folder is to go to the bottom here and click on plain text and then what you want to click on is HTML to plain which changes everything - just plain letters compared to HTML and then click on wrap long lines it also helps to not go into the spam folder so every time you finish an email go to plain text go to HTML - plain and then wrap long lines and then you can close it alright so once you've finished your email what I also do with every email as I send a test message to myself so if you click send test message you can choose the email here that you want to send a message to just so you see how the email is delivered if the links were properly and everything like that because you're going to send that email out to every single subscriber that signs up for your email list and you want to make sure it's it's it's really good and the links are working and everything looks very good and stuff so yeah I would do this and also you can check your spam score this is an estimate of how likely it is that your email will actually end up in the Inbox so the higher your score is the the worse it actually is so right now it is minus 0.09 9 which is pretty good as long as it's like 0 or 1 I think it's good I once had an email that was 2 and it's ended up in the spam folder so I really tried to keep it as low as possible and you also have some indicators of what might of what is actually contributing to your higher spam score so if it says something like too many pictures then you can just delete some pictures in your email and then the spam score should go down but it's a good idea to just add for example send the email as a test message to your Gmail or your AOL email so you see if this email provider categorizes your email as a spam before you actually send it out to your to your subscribers and you're on the right side you also have a phone here where you see how it looks like on on a mobile phone so once you have your welcome email set up you just go to next step on the bottom and now you see are in your automation messages messages tab we have set up our first email which is our welcome email all right so the next thing that we're gonna do is we're gonna set up our first workflow so that if somebody signs up to our email list this email will be sent automatically and immediately to this person who just signed up ok I'm now back inside of the get response dashboard and to set up our automation email workflow we're going to go to the automation button up top here where we've also already set up our automation email which is the first one that we'll be sending out which is the welcome email so what we're going to do now is go to manage workflows and then click on create workflow if you're doing this for the first time there might be some windows popping up to kind of give you a tutorial about everything you can go through that or you can just click it away and watch this one I'm gonna explain everything to you right now so here you also have a different templates that you can use but for now we're just going to build it from scratch so we're going to click on start now here you also have some different pop-up windows some tutorials it's probably worth reading this so if you go through it the first time you can start reading this but for now we can we give our workflow and name so for me for example it would be affiliate marketing workflow something like that and then we have to start with with a block so and what we're going to start with is subscribers so enter your name up top here and then click on subscribers or subscribes nice so also and there would be an interactive tutorial when you first do this if you want to turn this off just go to the interactive tutorial button here and then switch this to off all right so this is your workflow area where you build your workflow and on the right side you have different blocks every block has a different feature so what we have now is the the first one subscribed by any to any list via any method and what we want to do now is we want all the people who sign up on our landing page to our list that we've made we want them in this block so the way we do that is we click on this block and then we go to select the list click on specific then choose the list that we have created which is for me they get response tutorial one click on that and then we have to select a method if you have multiple landing pages and you want to divide them up then you can choose the method here you can choose the lining page go to landing page and then choose the one that you've created for we've named ours example in this tutorial so I would choose this one but if you only have one landing page you can just leave this out and it will still work because everybody who's getting on that list will end up in this block here alright so what we do now is everybody who's landing in this block we want to send them our welcome email so we go to the right side here and go to send message then what we do is we just drag the send message block in our workflow area here and then we're gonna come and we're gonna connect these two so now everybody who is here who ends up here this message will be sent to them immediately so now we have to choose the message that we want to be to want to send so now we go to the right side again we click on the block and go to the right side and then choose drafts because the message that we've created is now in the drafts then choose the message so we only have one created the welcome message so we choose this and then it asks you to or tells you that we need to change it into an automation message so just click apply and now the message is in there so now it's already done so that if somebody enters their email address on your landing page and they confirm that they want to be signed up for your email list they will get this message immediately if you don't want to send it immediately you can enter a wait block in between these two blocks the wait block is down it's down here but I want to send it immediately so I'm just gonna leave it like this but what I actually want to do is I want to send a couple of more emails after they have signed up so after they've gotten the welcome email I want to send another email a day later so what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna take the wait block down here and I'm gonna drag it into the my area and again I'm gonna just connect it if you want to have them wait two days then just change this to two you can also change the hours or whatever you want but for me I'm just gonna leave it to one like for example if I have a product I want to I want to promote then I'm gonna have a email series like five emails or something and then on the last two I will promote that product so we there wait one day and then I will send them another email so I'll drag in the message connected and then I have to choose again what kind of message I want to send them and of course you have to to mate you craft you have to write that message first so you have to go in your automation messages and then create that message because right now we only have one mess it's a welcome message but if you want to make more you can just go to to this button here and open this in a new tab by holding down the command button on Mac I don't know how it works in Windows but I'm sure that's that's the way you can do this and you have two tabs open and you can switch between these two tabs and then here go again to automation and to automation messages here now we have the Welcome ester that we've created in the draft section the status is draft and now we've used this message you see that it's in use so we have it twice and you can also filter it here so if you want to only see the messages that are in use just take the in use and you will only see the one message if you want to make more like for a second email just create Gras draft and write another email that you can insert in your workflow so let's go back to our workflow and actually build this out so that we have our our email sequence set up so let's say I want to after this email is sent I want to have them wait another day and then and then send another email and then they should wait another day and then I'm gonna send another email so like this okay so now let's say with this email this is like a promotion or it's linked in it to my website or whatever and I only want to I want to kind of segment it so that people who actually click on the link they they will get another email compared to the ones who don't click on link so what I can do is I go to the right side and I can choose link clicked I drag this one to the work flow area and connected like this and now I want to send actually let's say everybody who's clicked a message they will wait another day connect it and everybody who didn't click any link they will wait three days so dragging the wait one day and then change this to three so now everybody who has clicked waits one day everybody who hasn't like wait three days cool so now everybody who has clicked will get another let's say promotion message and everybody who didn't click will also get a message but the message will be different it will be maybe some more value emails maybe some more emails to warm them up for your promotion or something until you pitch your your offer again so this is a cool way to kind of segment the people going through your workflow and you can actually build this out to eternity so the powerful thing is that if somebody signs up for an email list you will just get here and after this every everything will happen automatically and you can send hundreds of emails and that you've prepared in advance and like you to evaluate email value email value email and then you send it like a promotional email and then you again send valuable emails and stuff like that so I hope you see how powerful this can be and you have a lot more options here you can move move people around like you can say if if this math if this link hasn't been clicked then you wanna you want to move them to a different list like move to list and then you add here another list or you can you can add a tag you can tag them something like I don't know not interested or something and then you kind of know what people who your subscribers are and what kind of emails they want from you as a beginner you probably will not go too crazy with this and you actually shouldn't because yeah it can be a little bit get a little bit complicated fast but right now I want to show you a workflow that I currently have for one of my businesses so I kind of got an idea how it can look like so now we're actually in my real gut response account that I've had for a while and here's a workflow that I've built it's it's like nothing special actually but it's kind of to show you how it can look like so I give away an e-book and that I've wrote about how to get your first 10k followers on Instagram so I know everybody who downloads this ebook is interested in growing on Instagram so with the first with a welcome message I sent just send them the e-book and then I already segmented so that everybody who clicks the link and will go further in the workflow and everybody who doesn't click the link that didn't take a look at the e-book so they didn't download the e-book what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna let them wait two days and then I'm gonna send another email sending them my ebook again so I don't know I'm gonna send something like I don't know if me what got delivered or something or maybe you forgot to check it out or something like that so get a second chance that they download your ebook and then they go back to the same workflow and after two days they will get a email where I sent them a video about the growth service that I'm offering and I explained how everything works so maybe if somebody is interested here I will already make a sale for my gross growth service for Instagram and here the same again if somebody doesn't open the message then I will wait two days and then I will send the same email again but with a different title so I know they haven't seen the email because they haven't opened it so I can just use the same email I don't have the time to take the time to write another email but I use a different title so maybe the first title didn't work the first subject line so maybe the second subject line works and then they go back into this workflow and here it it segments people who have clicked on a link and people who haven't clicked on a link actually here I should do some more messages some more value emails and then maybe promote my growth service again but I haven't done that actually what I've done is I've sent everybody to my second sequence which is just my YouTube videos that makes sense if you you wanna grow an Instagram so here I have my series about how to make money on Instagram so the first one is 5 ways to make money on Instagram then they wait one day and then they get the message about a method that I'm explaining here and so on and then I basically send them to the emails where I explain which tools they're going to use to make that method work so and all these these videos have affiliate links under in the description so that if they decide to to go to to use these tools that I'm using I will get a commission and what I can actually do also is like promote Instagram course here I actually haven't built this out to the full to the full scale right now but there's a lot of you lot what you can do you can really prepare hundreds of emails and I also have a different entry point so these are my Jarvie settings that people can download and they will get to the same to the same sequence eventually and then I will send them all to my newsletter once they have all gone through this workflow where I will just send them broadcast messages like when I upload a new video I will send them a message but I will only send them to this through this newsletter list so that all the people who are in this workflow they will not be disturbed by some random email getting in between or something so I hope you kind of understand how powerful this can be if you if you build it out right and you have a thousand more possibilities than what I've shown you just now but this is a beginner tutorial so to go more in detail would be too much and this is just to show you how how something like this can look alright and that's it if this tutorial helped you get started with GetResponse I'd really appreciate if you'd go down and leave
