How To Email My Lists?

I have a list of emails, around 20k emails, what is the best way to email my offer to my list?

One recommendation was using iContact, but you have to pay a monthly fee of $100-$150, is this worth it? Is there any free services I can use? Also, they only accept credit card for payment, I only have paypal at my convenience.

    How did you build "your list" exactly, and did they opt-in to receive emails from you?

    A list of emails might not be enough.

    You need the permission of the people that are on that list to mail them

      I don't have permission, I just have a list. What do you recommend? Keep in mind that i'm just a beginner in this.

        Then trash it.

        No point in mailing somebody without permission. Could result in an involuntarily change of living quarters. Full meals (no fruit) and job at the plate factory included. LOL

        This is not the forum to ask people how to spam your list that did not give you permission to contact them.

    Please delete your list, and start everything again
    Find a good list building course for beginners, and learn the basics.
    An advice: you need to spend money to make money, especially in list building.

    Sounds not like a good start for a business! The purpose of a email list is to make money sure but also to help the people on it to solve there problems and to build trust and a relationship to you. But when you don't have the permission to email them than you just spamming and nobody likes spam.

    You said you are just a beginner than let me give you an advice. Try to build a real business and bust your ass to reach your goals. One point would be to trash this list and start building a real one which will help you and your customers in the long run 1000% more.

    So you're asking for advice on how to spam people - wonderful! :rolleyes:

    You're not going to get very far with that here, I suggest you try more LEGIT methods like building a targeted email list of people that WANT to hear from you. You'll make more friend that way, and we (on the warrior forum) won't hate you and call you bad names (like jerk face) behind your back.
