Hello,
I have been messing around(joking) and I accumulated email list with around 150k-200k emails.
Idk how many of them are active, but pretty sure >50% are used to this day.
Lets say there are 80k real "customers"
Tried to send some test emails with gmail account but it only allows to send 500 emails a day without getting ban. So i would need around 300 emails to work with. Dunno if its a good idea to promote CPA from OGADS or maybe my affiliate site. Maybe someone knows decent technique to monetize these lists.
Edit: I forgot mentioning, that I can get more emails anytime.
Dont ask me about selling them or how did i get them.
Believe me mate, i have been where you are right now. So let me share my humble experience hoping that it can serve you well.
I have gathered email lists aswell hundreds of thounsands on specific products niches and they were all legit emails, valid and actual emails of people who bought from actual stores. So they are all buyers.
However, just owning a list like that isn't enough, if you wish yourself to sell the products that they are interested on, you'll find it very difficult because first, you'll be spaming people who didn't not register to your site or your newsletter, therefore you will get flagged by many servers, like gmail, yahoo, etc... which means getting the domain name from which you are sending blacklisted and you'll always fall into their spam folders which no one will be able to see your offers.
That's what we call cold emailing, it's a science of it's own to counter all these missteps, i managed to learn, experiment and succeed at reaching a lot of clients but it wasn't very effective, some of them converted and most of them didn't, for the following reason:
If you are targeting Europe that will be harder, as people there are a lot more aware of the GDPR regulation laws, they will feel offended and violated in their privacy without their conscent if they see you landing in their mailing inbox, they will mark your email as a spam, and it only takes a handful of people to do that so you can get blacklisted in that particular server you are sending your emails to. Not to mention that they can also report you to other organizations aswell where they can file complaints, one of them did that !!!
As for selling them, people will find a hard time to believe that you have an actual niche and valid list, everybody will be very sceptical, so good luck convincing them. It's not like there is an actual group where you can just make your offer, you'll have to spot people who are realy looking for such lists which is not something common.
As to your prior questions about increasing the volume of your gmail sending, try first GMASS. But do not start big right from the start. Warm up your email, increase your volume each day by 50 and keep a regular sending schedule so you won't get blacklisted by your ISP.
Also think about verifying these emails lists, to avoid a significant amount of bounce rate. There are some actual tools online on which you can verify the emails.
I'll be happy to verify a small portion of you like to see what it's like, i received the same courtesy for free long time ago in here from another member, so i'm giving back now to someone else ^^
