Can you harvest & build e-mail lists for cheap?


How do you sell your products and services if you don't have a way to get in touch with your potential customers? If you start a business of any type - you must have a marketing budget. Sure you can sell via traditional channels - TV, Radio, Print - I hope you have deep pockets to spend money and get no results. Sure you have the sol called marketing guru's - I bump into one of these guys every day - "how come they don't advertise?" and "how come I never heard of them before I meet them at a networking event?" - LOL - EXACTLY my point!!


The old days of using these channels just don't work for small start-ups. Well sure there is Google Ads and Yahoo OverCharge (lol) and MSN Market place...and yes we use them - but lately I have noticed that Mr. Google has started to increase the cost of click ads - which has resulted in higher costs for our marketing efforts. More importantly YOU ARE NOT IN CONTROL OF OUR MARKETING EFFORTS!!! These marketing firms will want you to believe you are in control...yah righ!!



So we decided to build the FileOn List Builder - which gives you the power to harvest the web and use your own marketing lists to sell your unique products and services. Extract e-mail addresses, phone, fax, url, meta tags to build out your custom list.


Oh! yes, about spaming customers - let's define this for you. You can reach out to all types of customers through e-mail at least 1 time...as long as you provide them with the option to opt out of your e-mail list you are good to go. Also, if they do not opt out and your ask them to continue to get your e-mails and the customer approves...you now have a list you can continue to leverage.


I hope you will try our product and we will continue to improve our software for many years to come so that you can leverage this product for your marketing needs. Try it free at http://www.listdna.com/.
