I have such a message in my sequence for more than a year now and my experience is that people who respond to this message are a lot more likely to make a purchase. In fact, the majority of my total sales volume is from people who responded to that message. So the time answering replies to that message is very well invested. My message is a little bit different than just asking for questions. I rather ask them how my product is working for them (there is a free evaluation trial, so they have a chance to try it out). This kind of message also is a great way to communicate that I am serious about delivering great value to my customers and that I care about them. Of course I also direct them to my FAQ, because it helps them to get some their questions answered faster and reduces my workload, so creates a win-win situation. Also, the feedback I get from the replies to that message helps me a lot with the further development of my business and my product in a way which is aligned with the market. So, anybody who reads this, by all means, go for it and add a message which encourages feedback from your customers. You will see the result in your bottomline. :-) Hi Marc,

For several months as a newbie to Internet marketing, I found not getting the response that I needed in the early stages was rather off-puting. You can't do everything by autoresponder and Tom Kulger confirmed this through his personal touch and follow ups. I wasn't ready to purchase a service from AWeber when he was courting my attention, but I knew that I would be using his service as soon as I am ready. Aweber's approach of putting the human face or touch to using autoresponders puts them a cut above the rest. Marc,

It's easier to help them to solve their problems and you win credibility and respect. Yes, feedback is super important, in this way you know what your customers think and what they want to know.
