I got this email today. It looks like a email address scavenging service
where they finger/brute force the mail server getting to see if they get
responses to requests for email addresses. Has anyone heard of this
before? I would assume this is something that administrators would frown
on greatly since it would seem to flood a mail server for requests.

If anyone has heard of such a thing, has used such a thing or has
opinions on such a thing, that would be greatly appreciated. I do not
want to sign off on this if it will cause problems or get us
blacklisted.

Thanks,

Mike

Improve Sales Data Quality by obtaining and utilizing the email
addresses of
all your Prospects and Customers 

With our unique Email generation service you can improve the quality of
your
sales data and have a big advantage over your competition, reduce time
to
market promotions, lower the cost of marketing and stay in continuous
touch
with your customers.  This is called "Intelligent Email Marketing" and
is
strategic to the successful marketing of most competitive companies
today.
Please see www.newtechsolutions.com <http://www.newtechsolutions.com>
for
more information.

Here is the problem that we are proposing to solve:
Many companies want to utilize email as a quick and low cost way to keep
their customers and prospects informed.  But most companies do not have
all
the email addresses of their prospective or existing contacts. The
emails
they do have are usually stored in a disorganized fashion that will not
allow the proper analysis, improvement and addition of Emails.  

This is where our service and technology comes in:
If given the company name, city, state, first and last name of the
contact,
then we can generate about 95% of the missing emails. The process to
obtain
these emails is a proprietary process that utilizes our specialized
software
and techniques.  The result is a list of emails (corresponding to the
names
given) that you can feed back into your sales management system or
database.
Using this process we can take on large jobs, like determining the
emails of
20,000 people at 10,000 companies, and generate the emails quickly.  The
techniques and the software developed to do this does not require
calling
the customer and asking what the email address is.  Calling to obtain
email
address doesn't work. If calling were necessary it would take a long
time,
be very expensive and results in only a small percentage of emails
because
most companies won't give them out.  

The Pain:
The problem for a Sales VP or marketing manager is that they might want
to
leverage the email addresses of thousands of existing and prospective
customers but they don't have them.  They have the company information
and
they have the contact names that they have developed over the years but
they
don't have the email addresses.  This limits the type of marketing they
can
do and the speed with which they can react in the marketplace. If the
company determines that having the emails is critical to their success
then
the question becomes...how do they get them? 

For any MIS manager or VP of Sales, getting emails, is a difficult and
time-consuming process.  It is difficult to obtain emails for two
reasons.
One, most customers and receptionist will not give out their emails if
asked
and two, the sales staff is usually not very good at obtaining and
updating
this type of information. Unlike a fax number, an email address is
considered personal and usually is difficult to get.  

Regarding emails, there are two types of email problems that customers
usually have that we can solve:
1. If the company has customers or prospects with multiple contacts but
they
only have some of the emails then we have a technique for determining
the
emails for the rest of the people at that company.  
2. For prospective customers they may not have any emails in which case
we
would need to start from scratch and determine the emails for all the
individuals.

Products and Services we offer:
1.) Generating valid emails for existing contacts.
2.) Validating emails that already exist.
3.) Providing software that can keep the existing sales database updated
with emails, web sites and faxes.
4.) 5.) We can provide the consulting to help companies set up automated
email marketing.
6.) We can also provide fax numbers and automated fax marketing
assistance.
7.) Consulting so that they can enhance their existing Sales Force
Software
to include "intelligent" email information.

Improving the quality of your Sales data
We offer a service to improve the quality of sales data so your company
can
be more competitive by being able to do "rapid marketing" at a reduced
cost.

Staying Competitive
Having all the information, like the emails, will be seen as a
competitive
requirement soon if it isn't already.  If your competitor already has
all
this information about their prospects but you don't then you have to
either
catch up or assume higher cost and longer lead-time to get information
to
your customers. 

The advantage of having this information is you can now stay in touch
with
all your prospects and customers immediately. You can immediately inform
your customers of a new product or promotion. This could give you a big
advantage in speed over the competition.   This speed advantage is more
important if your company is in a rapidly changing product field. 

Other Advantages of Emails
Emails can be used in conjunction with direct mail, web and sales
campaigns:
For larger companies that are going to have a direct mail and a web
campaign, they could use the emails as a test market for their promotion
and
follow up with direct mail if interest in shown.  This can save a lot of
money and time.  

Pricing
Pricing depends on the total volume of emails needed and the type
(additional contacts or totally new accounts) of emails.  Please call
1-978-851-0801 x-221 or email [EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
for a
detailed quote.  Usually the first step is to determine the amount of
emails. Most companies don't actually have a way of counting missing
emails
or counting the number of accounts with no emails at all.  We can
determine
this using our software so you will know how many are missing and what
the
cost will be to obtain them.  Sometimes an estimate is enough to
determine
the per email cost and start the project.

Technology Licensing
We are also willing to sell a license of this technology if you would
prefer
to provide this service within your company.
