I believe it was a poor attempt at trying to be funny. Email marketing is alot more strict now than it used to be, but you could attempt to mail them in small batches with a message that passed spam monitor and try to get them to opt in, so that way you'll have an official opt in list to market to. Best bet would be to use one of those emailing services that get a good inbox rate, and can help you get your message thru the filters. Good luck.

They are professionals who get spammed daily, so pointless. I get these and just delete before opening

If you don't have a compelling service that you can offer them, I'd say nothing. You're not going to get much, if anything, spamming them with affiliate offers either, especially with only 3,500 emails.

Affiliate is not something I plan to do EVER
 
Most emailing services will boot you off for spamming pretty quickly. However you could load them into an advertising platform and target them that way, such as Facebook lookalike audiences.

Wasn't that poor, 3500 emails is nothing. You think its strict now, what do you think its going to be like 25th of May?

Then why are you asking what to do with them. Email them and sell professional financial products and see how your less than 20% open rate and <3% click through rate converts.

I literally see the same post 2 or 3 times each week, somebody scrapes a bunch of emails then comes here asking what to do with them. Are you trying to show off that you downloaded 3500 emails or is it too difficult to decide if you can actually do anything with those emails before downloading them?

And what happens on the 25th of May? Sum it up a bit if you don't mind, so I can see if it's worth looking into more.
 
i wasted my whole day trying to find a good program, i tried gmass but the 20 sends free trial is pathetic.

What I did was open 2 notepads and copy / paste in the email adresses then the spam message one by one.. I think I ended up doing about 50 till I got bored.

I notice a horrible reply rate as well....

Email marketing is dead in 2018 you're better off just cold calling these businesses over phone I think
 
Try to sell that list,

your looking at headaches if you don't have experience in mailing

not if you use services like GetResponse or Mailchimp that goes under the radar
 
i feel like if you really have a compelling offer for them, it's totally worth a try - especially if you manage to address them personally. as laid out by welneto, usegetresponse or mailchimp to make it easier
