    Hi,

    There are many different companies that allow you send an email to their mailing list. A mailing list is a database of emails the company has collected either from their own websites or from third party sites/companies. If you ever pay for the company to send an email out for you to their mailing list ALWAYS ask them to only send the email to their latest data batch. There is no point paying for them to send an email if they are going to be using old data that they have had for over 6+ months as by that time consumers would have marked the emails out as SPAM or have changed their email address and you would only see a low amount of conversions.

    Do some research on Email Marketing before spending any money on it :)

    Email marketing is a very effective form of promotion, however you have to know how to do it right. Always make sure that the emails are targeted, this means that your AD is going out to people who are interested in your product. For example you do not want to send an email selling dog accessories to cat lovers. It is a waste of money and time. Your email should be in the form of a solo ad. This means that your AD is the ONLY ad in the email. This prevents that you have to compete with other vendors for someone to open you AD. Your AD should arrive at contact emails. This means that the person has not only opted in to receive your Ad but has furnished a contact email. This ensures that the email is arriving at an active email inbox and not at a junk email inbox that person may have. The services with contact emails are constantly sending out emails that require action on behalf of the recipient. If no action is taken, THAT email address is deleted. ALL of the above measures ensure that you are getting quality email marketing service.

    Finally, the email service will not do the work alone. YOUR AD must be a killer AD. Remember that the service will only get your email delivered, it is up to you to create a catchy subjectline that will get people to open the email. And then write a compelling, concise, creative and catchy AD. THAT will make the difference in conversion.

    To be frank, I'd get someone to write your emails for you. Either that or polish up on your spelling and grammar. (no offence).

    It sounds like you want to go with a company that sends out emails through their system to their list. You don't want to go this route because they don't know who you are and you can get a lot of spam complaints. You need to build your own targeted email list from scratch. You'll get much better results.

    Very true. Sending out emails indiscriminately is never a good idea. Building a list from the ground up might take time, but you'll get much better results and far fewer complaints...

    Straight to the point, i dont think email marketing will work as all emails account has spamming filter that's why most of emails will not be showed in the inbox and cant expose your product at all.
