Can / should I buy a email list from an established reputable company?

Hey warriors,

I launched my product a few months ago on Clickbank, and I'm stuck with it producing no revenue.

it's the old vicious circle, the affiliates will promote you if they see your numbers going up and the numbers will go up if they promote you.

I'm considering either renting or buying an email list from EXACT DATA or LIST FINDER.

As far as I know, I CANNOT email people through an email list I bought, even from a reputable company, meaning they would have to do the email blast for me.

TRUE or FALSE?

Thank you!

    It's false. as long as the users on the list gave permission to receive 3rd party messages.

    I've been monetizing purchased data for 16+ years. However, because that's what I do as a business, it's much different than your situation. I heavily monetize using free offers that have mass appeal, yet still pay well. Which is so much easier than what you want to do.

    Your starting with a single product that you want to sell and need a list that is going to work with it. That's going to be be far more difficult and why most people believe you should ever buy lists. Which in your case, it's very likely to be true. Your probably better off using the money to develop an opt-in list.

      Buying an email list is always a 50/50 chance of getting an absolute garbage list.

      Purchasing solo ad traffic to get people to optin to your newsletter is a good way to start.

      Free offers that provide a solid solution to whatever problems your niche audience has in exchange for your prospect's name and email is a good way to create a list that is responsive and also build trust and become an authority figure when creating your first lead magnet.

      But please, do your due diligence when talking to solo ad providers. Many are only out for a quick buck with no concern whether you get the right traffic to your offer only that you get the set amount of clicks you ask for.

      My 2 cents

      Hey, I see your point.

      Could you please elaborate a bit? So you use a squeeze page, offer free stuff in exchange for their email and you monetize later on, with solid products?

      Or did I misunderstand that?

      Just looking to learn here, Thank you!

    Buying list is good, but be careful that are not fake. Because fake emails will not generate any sales or visits. Try to make a email list your self from your site, This will be better than anything. Or you can take a risk and purchase the list and have a try there.
