Need a Good List

[Mr. Bill]

Greetings Again;

Need to be refered to someone with a really solid, no spam, targeted opt-in mailing list.

Looking for a referral from a person with 1st hand experience of a firm that has produced a list that brought a good ROI and made lots of money for them.

Dear Mr. Bill,
what you are looking for, does not exist.

If I opt in to a list, I need to know what it is this list wants to send me. If I don't know, it has the same effect, as if someone sends me unsolicited e-mail.

You have to bild your list by yourself, subscriber by subscriber or you are nothing but a spammer.

And anybody trying to sell you an opt-in list, is just searching for yet another sucker.

Kind regards

Conficio is so incorrect:
"You have to bild your list by yourself, subscriber by subscriber or you are nothing but a spammer"

You can rent (not purchase) legitimate targeted opt-in e-mail lists. There are literally hundreds of web sites that ask you to register to allow a download, read a news paper story (N.Y.Times as an example)
and in the rg process. many times your asked to complete a survey. What are your interest, your profession, income level, etc.

You may also be asked to acept e-mail promotions from them or their partners. You are now part of an opt-in email list. The companies then rent those lists out for a fee. If you are a company that rents this list you are NOT a Spammer.

There is not guanteee of a ROI with any type of marketing campaign.

Dear searchquest,
you are so right! There are thousands of those lists, most of them are fraudulent or misleading at best.

And the millions of poeple, that submit all the e-mail coming from those lists directly to the spam registers like Vipul's razor etc. vote clearly that this kind of untargeted mailing is clearly perceived as SPAM or UCE. There are even tens of thousands that that report standard business mailings from companies they have had business with like Amazon.com, Buy.com, etc. to these lists.

Mr. Bill asked for a targeted list. What you describe is not targeted and who ever says so is trying to make a quick buck.

Just my opinion!

Hi,

Mr Bill I have a couple of good friends
with 'highly' responsive lists.

What are you wanting to promote?

For the Money I would have them built with opt-in coreg from a legit company. At least you know you are buying data of people who were interested in your product.
