Need email list from a specific country

Hi

I haven't thought about how much I'm gonna pay yet, because I'm more worried about having nobody able to do the job. I live in a very small country with only 250,000 people, and everything that has to do with internet activity is less developped over there.

I don't think I could find a place where to buy a list of local email adresses if you catch my drift.

Anyway, I plan on opening a business in a few month and I need to gather a list of emails of the locals. I don't need email from other countries obviously.

The only idea I have so far is scrapping emails from local facebook pages / groups, but iirc these aren't the actual email used by these people, they are the facebook emails.. (right ?)

If somebody has a solution, PM me. If you want more details, you can ask here as well.

edit: The country is New Caledonia

If people use facebook in you country, why don't you build fb page and your list with fb ads. With such small and targeted audience you should get some cheap clicks. Plus you will get better delivery rate and better open rate compared with scraped emails.

I wanted to mass email people. But I take your input as well.
