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 ******************************************************** Please forward to the VP Sales or Marketing Manager. Thank you. 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. ��h�ا�P��i��0��"��(����q����_j�m� ܆+m����0�y�o�y�܇�j�!j�S��칻�&ޙ����^j����Z����2�G(�L\���x����f�yb�֝�)��)�r�
