I have recently been put in charge of developing and distributing press releases for my company. We have a few “new hired employee” press releases that we would like to release to just local publications. Any advice on whether to mass email all local publication contacts or contact reporters individually? Anyone have any experience with this?

I have about 2000 customers and I want to send them all an email through my business email account. However, I know that there are spam filters that block messages that have too many recipients. I’d like to input all 2000 and have them automatically sent in blocks of 10 to avoid these filters. Don’t worry. They’re all customers.

ok 2 questions, does mass emailing really work? if my email gets to 2 milion people , do you think a good amount of people will goto my site. i have a clothing website i would like to promote…also does anyone know about mass postal mailing? how much does i cost, and is it worth it?

I would like to market my product by giving out commissions to people who own the email lists instead of spending up front cash.. Any ideas?

I own a company which designs software and one of our products is targeted at the legal profession. I have an email list of 1,000 attorneys that I compiled from the state bar association’s records, and I would like to send out a survey to these attorneys so that I can get an idea of the viability of my product. Would this be illegal? Would this be Spam? How could I avoid breaking the law and avoid having my email filtered through spam?

How and where do i obtain free email lists for advertising?

I have an opt in list, but i don’t kow how to send it out now. I don’t want to get booted off of yahoo, beside it is a tedious copy and paste from what I see.

I’m looking for a free bulk email software, a mass email marketing program and a bulk emailing sender. Intended by sending of email newsletters to large mailing lists, that can work on Windows 98/ME/NT/2000/XP, and Vista. and that is complete FREE

Is there any free ones?? Please help. I’m not all tha great with internet marketing. I’m new

I am the author of a business book that’s specifically targeted to women, home-based business owners. It’s already considered a business bestseller. After the holidays I’m interested in doing a promotional campaign to make my book a bestseller on Amazon.com.

To do this I have to find people with good, current email DB lists (can be a few hundred to thousands) that contains a lot of women, home-based business owners.

Of course there’s a win-win benefit for those list owners who decide to work with me.

Any ideas where I can locate people with good lists.

All the best,

In reply to Cassandra’s question – the name of my book is “Testosterone-Free Marketing” and you can get a personally autographed copy at http://www.tfmbook.com It’s a myth-shattering book for thousands of women who’ve read it and created more cash flow in their businesses.

Hi Spamdex:

I’ve contacted list brokers in the past and amazingly they don’t have lists of “women, home-based business owners.” Surprising, but true. They have “home-based business owners” and they have “women” but not both to make it more specific.

Plus, they “seed” their lists so that if you send more than one email – it’s a problem since you’re renting the list for one time only. With an Amazon push you send a series of 7-8 emails so that doesn’t quite cut the mustard.

What I need to find are people with a site and an ezine for example that goes out to several thousand people. Or, a top level MLMer with a big email list.

I can’t actually use their list. The emails have to come from the owner of the list – but I write them. I’ve watched very closely how other authors I know closely do this and generally list brokers would be an excellent answer but not in this particular situation.

thanks much, Spamdex.
