Email Marketing : Effective for services ?

I used to do email marketing before two years for few of my sites.At that time they are effective.

But are they effective for service type web sites ?
Where I can purchase mail list ?

 

the best bang for your buck in the long run is to create your own list as they all say the list is in the money

I am constantly building mine you can purchase email blasts to increase your opt in subscribers

 

Depending on the service, heck yeah a well-crafted email can get results for a service oriented biz. Just depends on the conversion rate you're looking at as "successful."

 

I have found email marketing for services to be quite effective, as long as it is done ethically and with the right tone for your audience.

 

well email marketing is effective however you should be careful, someone was put in jail because of this..

 

I would definetly stick with creating your own list. Be patient , let it grow and you will soon see the money.

 

Which email marketing services have the best luck?

 

yeah.Spammers are making more problems with this,.

 

Yes email marketing is good for increase your business, you can purchase theme wise email lits or you can find as your self by websites.

 

If you want to keep your company's credibility, I wouldn't recommend purchasing lists unless they are from a high quality lead generating company, who guarantees their lists are double opt-in. I know of several but refuse to endorse selling email addresses.

I'd recommend generating your own opt-in list. It's relatively simple, and once you get the hang of it you can apply that model to several different niche categories. Email marketing is a very effective and profitable tool when used properly. Just make sure you sign up with an email service provider who is a proper fit for the size and quality of your opt-in list. After that, buy a few quality email marketing templates (don't waste your time with crappy free stock templates, they don't work) and you'll be well on your way to email marketing success.

 

Create your own list via ppc or article marketing. It is the best bet.

 

I think it depends on what kind of service it is

 

Yes, it's still effective when you:
1. Build your own list slowly (Double Opt In)
2. Give a good content to ad ratio... i.e. always give them something valuable to read, so they want to open your email.

I maintain my own lists with my own script (JV Responder Pro) which has some built in list building features.

I do buy lists, but they are opt in, and I ask for a second opt in so I personally KNOW they are double opt-in. If I send out a confirmation letter and there's no response, I don't send antyhing else.

 

As aforementioned, you can see a lot of success and high conversions this way if you are manually building a list. You don't necessarily have to do this through just an opt-in list, there are plenty of ways to build lists through offline marketing also. (pertinent magazines, lead gens, etc)

I haven't had a lot of experience with buying them, but I definitely wouldn't unless you have a list to buy that's very relevant to your market.

 

you should build your own list if you want quality prospects
