Anybody emailing?

I've got a couple large lists of targeted niches that I want to send some offers to but I've never mailed before. Do any of you have any advice/want to take me under their wing to help me get started? I just registered at a couple affiliate programs that have offers that could convert, I just don't know how to send that many emails at once/avoid the spam box.

Thanks GFY

No that's not going to cut it. You need to have the e-mail opted in for your list and you need to be able to document that or you are setting yourself up for trouble.

If you need mainstream mailing assistance, hit me up. I don't know shit about adult mailing, but there's someone else on here that can help with that. But you need to have legit lists imo, everything else is just too dangerous.

you can email and it is fine... your IP will likely get blocked but just have an IP that is dynamic and you will be fine

As long as you are willing to sign a contract stating that you obtained all subjects in your lists, I know a guy that has a system you can use to send them.

you need to get your 'peaz' from thailand, your own merchant account, bulletproof host, some blackmarket software, and a time machine to go back at least 7yrs for it all to work. if you have no idea wtf i'm talking about then don't even consider mailing

offers? your post screams mainstream.

Just because you tell them they can opt out doesnt make it legal

you need full data of when they opt-ed in along with IP address. You will also need to indicate in your subject line that it is sexually explicit.

You can mail and make a lot of money if you do it right.

I know plenty of people who've just started (mainstream) and are making literally $500-1000.00 per day. That being said, there are a number of factors to take into consideration.

1. It takes money to make money.
2. You need to have a way to show time/date/url stamp to be legal CAN-SPAM compliant.
3. You need to "scrub" your lists taking out the screamers.
4. You will need either an ESP or MTA depending on how you want to do it.
5. If you do it yourself, you need to learn about IP health management, inboxing, etc..
6. If you mail adult, you need to consider the Utah/Michigan 'minors' law. Must be over 18.
7. You will want to set up a DBA/corporation to show in all of your correspondence.
8. If you try and use filthy lists, you will burn up servers and IP space, which is costly. You will then end up next to Bill Waggoneer on the ROKSO list.

Good luck.

So is bank robbing with a gun... As long as I clearly state they can say 'No Thanks' and if they do, I promise to peacefully walk out, and not take any money or shoot anyone... Then thats legal too
