December 22, 2012 (Powerhomebiz.com) Do you want to purchase a mailing list to run your direct marketing promotions? Do you want to attract new customers to your business? If so, we strongly recommend that you hire a list broker. A list broker is the only person that can help ensure that the mailing list you purchase is the best mailing list possible (with the highest response rates for your business).
Without a list broker, it’d be literally impossible for you to figure out what kind of list is the best list to promote your business. There are hundreds of different companies that own various lists in different markets (some maybe within your own market). Getting in touch with them on your own, sharing your criteria and negotiating a deal can be done by yourself… but it’s often a very time consuming task.
That’s where a list broker comes in handy.
The list broker takes care of identifying the right kind of companies that own lists where your potential customers are hanging out based on the criterion you’ve given him. He also negotiates the deal with these companies based on how much you’re willing for offer. He puts you in touch with these companies and stays with you until the entire transaction is complete.
Here’s how list brokers help you in a variety of ways…
1. Identify your best possible customers
When dealing with a list broker, you need to share your target audience with him/her so he can find companies that own lists with a maximum percentage of your target audience. They’ll also need additional information on the type of list you want – postal, phone or opt-in list. They’ll research various companies and identify who the best companies are to target.
2. They have contacts
The reason why hiring a list broker is important is because these guys have contacts. They may already know other businesses within your same industry with whom you can run cross promotions. They’ll connect them with you. If you were to do the research yourself, you’ll take at least a couple of months before you can get your hands on a handful list of subscribers.
3. Ensure that legal laws are met
Now… there are various national and state laws that govern purchasing of lists. If you’re purchasing an email list, you need to ensure that the leads are opt-in leads and adhere to the CAN-SPAM Act. If you’re purchasing a consumer phone list, you need to check with the National Do Not Call Registry.
The list broker ensures that the list you’re buying is of the highest quality and meets all the legal standards. You don’t end up with a list that’s illegal.
