Hey all,

I have an email list of over 100,000 with a mix of brokers, real estate agents, mortgage bankers, etc

and also another list with about 50,000 title and escrow sales reps, title and escrow officers, sales managers.

Not really sure what kind of offers I can promote to them through networks, or if i should just sell my lists.

Any idea what kind of offers I can promote to them?

    Are these emails that you have collected yourself and mail to on a regular basis or did you acquire the list from another party, and if so, have you already mailed to it and cleaned it up?

    I know someone that runs a real estate investment company that would probably be interested, but he's going to want to advertise in, or mail to, legit lists only. Also, what is the geographical makeup of the list... USA?

      US only, the list needs to be cleaned up a bit though.

      The title and escrow list is relatively newer

      maybe that's becauce our mindset is "money is in the list" the better mindset is "money is in the relationship with the list".

      It's better if we build good relation with our list first, send them good information, freemium stuff etc.

      If we already have good relation with our list it can be easier to sell anything related to their interest.

      But many of us just send them never ending promotional stuff. Only Sale, Sale, Sale.
      No wonder if many are unsubscribing to our emails.

        I personally think email marketing is far from dead. In many ways, it's almost essential for your business but like Nurkholis said it could be how you're approaching it.

        If you're trying to always promote a sale you probably won't be successful. People like value and not feeling like they're being spammed.

    send me the list and ill have a look and tell you lol. If I were you I would probably approach small insurers direct with something like that if its a good list as that list would be a goldmine for a recognisable brand who can sell insurance products to them, rather than making your own complicated products or getting sign ups.

    You could also build a web page where other people in this niche can market their own products to the list for a fee, then just post it on here and let them pay to email the list.

    I find these types of people are very hard to sell to because they are usually very well educated. Plus they do it all day every day. Your better with a bunch of fat middle aged housewives with serious insecurities you can help them with.

    There's a lot of list. Are they responsive and hungry for offers?

      Not sure I've never ran anything toward it at all. Just seeing what I can do with it. Problem with the title and escrow list is that it's a Fortune 500 company and I'm sure they would ban a big email drop.

      The real estate list probably can do something with. Also haven't tried anything with it.

        You can try broadcasting to them by offering your affiliate offer with the suitable niche and see how they response to the offer. If they are responsive, you can get a lot of money with the 100,000 list.

    Hi,

    You should try to reach these people with a soft offer or a introductory email. Then segment your lists based on responders and non respoders. Then focus on responders and send them different kind of offers.

    Most businesses want leads. That's, for the most part, a fairly common denominator.

    So what legit/quality products or service might they be interested in?

    If they need B2B leads, I would think Linkedin. If they need B2C leads, I would think Facebook.

    Or what companies might want to target the companies on the lists to generate leads? Not that they would want to buy the lists, but you could generate the leads.

    Last resort, sell the data.

    I would be sending them at least 3 offers a week along with 7 emails of advice. Continue marketing to the list. Hopefully it's a newly up to date list and not from 1988.
