Really glad I found this site. Are you willing to be a guest blogger on my site? I'll email you with some details if you want.

I do however think they are better used on a type of adsense blog rather than an ebook site. Had one on one of the ebook sites I have and people were opting in instead of buying took it off and put it on a related blog. People are still opting in but also buying my ebook as well. Thanks!

No matter what. A two or three sentence thing is fine, just be personal. Also, I like to include all of the alternative ways to contact me in my signature. Of course, I do work around the clock, and often respond at 3am, so who knows what's right. :) <abbr><em>Carrie Kerpens last blog post..<a href="http://www.buzzmarketingdaily.com/2008/12/all-thekbuzz-wants-for-christmasan-open.html" rel="nofollow">All theKbuzz Wants For Christmas...An Open Letter To Our Friends At Facebook</a></em></abbr> I respond to every email.

However, I'm happy to still be at the point where I still CAN answer every email with a customized response, although I am starting to get creative about alternatives that don't involve automation. What I've been doing lately is including in a short thank you response a referral to another resource (usually another coach) who I know would be THRILLED to spend more time with their inquiry. It feels like a win win win all around - the sender gets a personal response from me, a tip to a valuable and AVAILABLE resource, the coach gets a much appreciated referral, and I get the satisfaction of responding to every freakin email AND still feel I was of service. Great post, Mari!

Sometimes I'm Gary V. status then other times I just have to zone out and get structured like Tim Ferris. Anyway, I've recently set up an autoresponder through Away Find. So far, so good. I like it because it has a form included that alerts people as to how they might reach me sooner (they fill out the form and I get a text message). I've only just tested it for two days now but I think I'm liking it. Is it possible to be in between?
