How Much Would A List Of Over 37K Be Worth?

13 replies
The list in dot points:

  • Its uncontacted. Its FRESH.
  • Mixture of business and individuals.
  • 90% Australian and NZ emails
  • List has info: title, first name, last name, phone, email, reason for emailing, and what interest category they are in
  • List ranges from years 2001 to Current
  • List has been tested and proven to be responsive (100 test emails sent with amazon free voucher offer - 66% responded)
  • List will obviously need to be migrated into your auto responder and opted in.

    Maybe you can sell it for several hundreds. If no one buys after quite some time, lower the price.

    With 37K probably will be worth at least 10K, depending on the market can be worth a lot more (or less). Start with a high price and reduce if no one is buying.

    If it's an Australian list you are going to struggle to sell it. The spam laws are fairly tight in Australia and selling a list isn't taken to well in Aussie courts.

    What ever the price be careful...

    Do show some stats. What price you intend to sell?

      The list in fact is much higher than 37K, probably near the 40K mark.

      Where would I sell a list like that?

      And where do I find out about the legalities?

      Thanks for this btw.

        Hi,

        If I were you I'd ask a lawyer.

        Forum members think they are entitled to their opinions, but you cannot be sure, if they are right or not.

        Why you would risk jail time?

        Best,

        Sandor

        EDIT: I'd suggest you to ask Kindswater. He is a member here. I met his legal advices before, and think, he can help you.

    I recon the list would be worth about $3000, people are very skeptical about buying lists, so I would suggest that you let serious potential buyers first test portions of your list via solo ads. If your potential buyer gets good results from the test solo ad, then he might be willing to pay even more than $3000.

    I don't think you're allowed to sell list just like that.

    You can ask the list to optin to another list but that's about it.

    Do you have any statistics from the list? How much have you made from the list? How often do you use the list? Why are you selling the list? What niche is your list in? What's the demographics? How did you acquire the list?

    Lots of questions need answering before putting up a price imo. Plus as others have stated there are some legalities that're best discussed with a lawyer.

      37k is a lot, it should be worth quite a huge sum, like maybe 10000$ at minimum or more! The niche you are selling has to be a big trend like membership offers for unlimited movie downloads or something like that. Even if only a 1000 out of that 37000 buys that product ur selling, it can be worth 10000$ if u sell it at 10$ each. Just in one message. Maybe it can be worth 50000$, who knows? It's a great list!

        The list either already owns a certain type of manufactured product, are about to by them, are interested in them or are wanting something to do with them (b2b). It varies quite a bit.

        I have seen both Australian and U.S. companies seeling lists like these and they say the list is un-contacted and fresh yet they are responsive. To me that begs the question 'what do they mean?'.

        I think what they probably do is Opt the list into some type of scheme where the list have selected that they dont mind being contaced by third parties for offers and other products or services.

        Lets say i do that, how would i then sell the list? Is there somewhere like flippa where i could go and meet an interested group of buyers?

      Dont have stats as the list has not been marketed to apart from a tiny test run. Hence made no money from the list.

      Can not say how I acquired the list. However I can guarantee the list is not harvested or acquired in any criminal way. The list is 100% genuine and has been created in a more than legal and lawful way

      Maybe I should opt the list in first hmmm? What to offer?
