Here are a couple of free ones:
DadaMail: http://mojo.skazat.com/
PHPlist: http://www.phplist.com/

If you have bluehost, both of the above is simple to install, go
into “Simple Scripts” from your control panel, and a few clicks later,
they are installed.

If you don’t have your own domain yet, just setup a group at YahooGroups and use that as your mailing list.

The secret to all affiliate marketer’s success is having a pre-built list.

You’ll be thanking yourself later if you put some good time and energy into developing a list or two.

I think it’s a good idea to have a list for your affiliates.

As I said in the very first email, Brian’s success is from looking
after his affiliates and that I wish to do the same, and that I believe
you should do the same if you also want to follow his success.

The list that you create, should be a list that helps your
affiliates, it should contain Ready-Made Marketing Materials, and tips,
like this 30 days to success list.

Your soldiers are going to need “weapons” to fire, and if you leave
them to their own devices, some of them will do well, and most of them
not-so-well.

If you don’t give them pre-made materials, they are less likely to do anything at all.

People are lazy.

The easier you make things for them, the more likely they are to do what you are asking.

Aweber is minimum $19 a month and I hate paying
monthly, so I have been looking for a great autoresponder which has all
the features, easy to use, where “I” host it instead of a 3rd party
website, fast, and NO MONTHLY FEES!

I was looking at both free and paid versions.
I don’t mind paying if it’s a great product and only a Once-Off fee,
but I was hoping that I could stumble upon a great free one that noone
was advertising because it was free lol..

I personally would rather host my own mail rather than have aweber in charge of everything. I’m a control freak. :)

I reviewed every autoresponder that I could find, trying to find the best. I looked at & demo’d:
- GetResponse
- Aweber
- EmailMarketingAssistant
- ListPro
- AutoresponsePlus
- InfiniteAutoresponder
- AutoresponderUnlimited
- And every single one of the autoresponders listed on the PHP scripting websites

It was a crappy, frustrating, couple of weeks :(

And after all my reviewing, I’m still unhappy with everything I
found :( One day I’ll get someone to design a good autoresponder, I
can’t believe how crap they all are.

In the meantime, I’m using AutoresponderUnlimited, which I’ve uploaded to the Autoresponder Tools page if you want to try it.

It’s not great.. but it’ll get the job done until someone creates a
great one ;) And since I paid for it and have master resell rights, I
can give it to you for free.

Pointless if you don’t yet have your own domain though…
if you don’t have a domain, you might want to stick with aweber because
it’s hosted with them, but I’m sure there are some free hosts elsewhere
that you don’t have to pay the monthly fees for.. please share with the
group just in case there are others who also can’t afford to get their
own domain yet.

The official affiliate site http://www.sgraffiliatecenter.com/
has some templates for autoresponders that you can borrow and modify. I
also highly recommend setting up a free gmail account and signing up to
everyone else’s autoresponders to get ideas on how they are promoting.
As well as, make sure you actually sign up to the free 5 lessons on
your website as there may be some text in there that you can use too.

What to Write in your Autoresponder

Your autoresponder and followup content is meant to educate your prospects as well as build a relationship with them.
Remember that it often takes several exposures to a product before a sale is made. When writing, use “YOU” more than “I”.
Your followup content is designed to foster this relationship by demonstrating your knowledge and credibility.

How to Generate your Autoresponder fast without hurting your brain too much!:
