E-Zine Options
This page compares the different abilities of each service and we provide feedback as to why we selected them for the Coaching Start-Up Kit.
1ShoppingCart 
With 1ShoppingCart.com you get a superbly automated auto responder system that collects the data that a visitor of your site enters and allows you the ability to help flow them through your sales funnel. It can be used to reply to requests, deliver your e-courses, announcements, product offerings and continue to stay in touch with your target market.
In my opinion, this is the best solution. It is what we use and so do all of our biggest clients (the movers and shakers in the industry).
1ShoppingCart.com has several integrated solutions and it includes:
|
Product Support |
|
Shopping Cart |
|
Shipping Calculations |
|
Payment Processing |
|
Recurring Billing |
|
Ad Tracking |
|
Domain Integration |
|
Newsletter Distribution |
|
E-Book Delivery |
|
Auto Responder Software |
|
Affiliate Software |
|
Integrated Database |
|
Reports and Statistics |
You get this system for ($99.00/month) and you can purchase 1ShoppingCart Professional Package here.
AWeber 
AWeber is a very good newsletter distribution service and an excellent auto responder service rolled into one. They are very low on the black list (this is a good thing - it means that more of your message get delivered) which several of the top competitors are not able to say. The service is reliable and relatively easy to use for a moderate user. There are several technological words that to someone who is not familiar to the terms may get confused. A confused mind always says "No."
AWeber is a low cost option if you do not go with 1ShoppingCart for the fully integrated solution. But has limitations when you want a fully integrated site.
With AWeber you get:
|
Newsletter Distribution |
|
Auto Responder Software |
|
Integrated Database |
|
Reports and Statistics |
|
Ad Tracking |
You get AWeber for $19.95/month plus an additional $100.00 to set up on top of the Coaching Start Up Kit.
EZezine 
EZezine is a very good newsletter distribution service. They are not listed on the black list (this is a good thing - it means that more of your message get delivered) which several of the top competitors are not able to say. The service is reliable and very easy to use for a novice user.
EZezine is a free option. You can purchase a full version for very little. However, if you are just starting out and loking for a reliable, cost effective service, EzEzine is a good choice. But will not integrate well with other web related extras when you want a fully integrated site.
With EZezine you get:
|
Newsletter Distribution |
|
Limited Reports and Statistics |
You get EZezine for free (up to 1,000 messages/month) plus an additional $20.00 to set up on top of the Coaching Start Up Kit. You can upgrade your account with them to send out more messages: 20,000 messages for $19.00 per month, 200,000 messages for $49.00 per month or 400,000 message for $99.00 per month. The upgraded accounts provide more features, reporting and statistics.
