Need advice on mass email project for a nonprofit org
I'm involved with a nonprofit group. We had a booth at an expo and people who are interested in learning more about the group signed up for a prize drawing and checked off "Please contact me with more info about your group."
Now I have this stack of email addresses of people to contact.
I know that it WILL NOT work if I sit down with our nonprofit's email (gmail) and put several of these email addresses into the "To:" field at a time and send them messages.
Should I use Google Groups to send this email out?
I've looked at iContact and Constant Contact, but we were hoping to do this project without spending money.
Also, how do most people handle their media lists? I have tried sending press releases out about our group to all of the media in the region, using the gmail account, and even though I AM NOT putting a bunch of email addresses into the "To:" field at once, gmail thinks I'm spamming and all of the emails bounce and never make it to their destinations.
Should I set up my media lists using something like Google Groups, iContact, or Constant Contact?
Thanks!
