Email Marketing – Is it worth?
 

I often see ads on the internet. They claim to offer 1000’s of email address, from any category you can imagine. I have two thoughts on this … First will it really bring in some money if I send mails to these prospects? I can try it as these lists are real cheap.

The second thought which comes to my mind is … They would have sold this list to 1000’s of people so will it really help me?


Please provide your comments so that I can make a decision.

Not only will it not bring you any money - it is illegal for you to spam people who have not granted you permission to email them and your ISP will cut your internet service.

The second thought which comes to my mind is … You're Right.They would have sold this list to 1000’s of people so will it really help you? Only if your intention is to throw your money away, fill up peoples spam boxes and really tick them off.

Avoid wasting your money and getting into trouble.
 

Hi, I would really stay away from these e-mail lists. Sending your offer to those on these lists would be considered spamming. You need to have a potential subscriber opt in to your list before you can send them e-mail. Most marketers use a double opt in verification to make sure that this person wants to be on your list.

Unfortunately, these lists that are circulating around on the internet will just waste your money and there's really zero tolerance these days if your accused of spamming.

If it's to good to be true it most likely is just that.

It's better to find legitimate ways to build a list and if it is a highly targeted list it will most likely be much more responsive than a huge list of subscribers that have no interest in what you have to offer.

I hope that helps and have a great day,

Sincerely,

Dennis Stokes
