Janie, I’m not entirely sure – I think it really depends on email marketing tools. Perhaps someone here can provide further insights.

My focus is more on the humanness of the business versus the tools of the trade. The tools help, but at the end of the day, it’s about the relationships. Hopefully someone can shed some light.

I have a big question. We have a 2000 relationship built opt-out list. How do we move to an opt-in or double opt-in list? I’d have to either 1) start over and ignore those 2000 (about 35-40% open rate) or 2) send them another email to get them to opt-in and start from there. What is the best tactic to be truly spam free?

This is a GREAT post! I have experienced this spam, often from vendors from vendor shows I have participated in, who have taken the email address from an email communication that was sent by the show coordinator to all participants. Suddenly I am receiving news from vendors I’ve never met, face to face, much less approved communication from.

I hope business owners from all walks of life read this and take heed. Spam is still spam, even dressed up and made pretty.
