Is it possible to obtain email lists of people who own PC’s?

Filed under: email lists — admin @ 4:48 pm

I am considering selling computers but there is no point marketing at people who already own them.

Why don’t you want to market people with PCs?? Ever head of people upgrading! :-)

You seriously want an email list of all the people in world that own a PC? If you do manage to get that list let me know!

Not everyone in the world who owns a PC may have an email address and if they don’t have a PC then the chances are they won’t have email. hmmm??

  1. If you got a website you could sell them to people who have none, just advertize with the library, etc.

  4. As others have mentioned: You should not disregard people with a computer as they will have to upgrade at some point as well.

    I would rather question the sense of sending them email to advertise as most people make a point of not buying from spammers.

  5. As the others have pointed out, it would be quite a futile task trying to get a list together of everyone who already owns a PC.

    Personally I think you should be putting your money and energy into marketing yourself a different way. Advertise locally - spend money on newspaper adverts, flyers and shop posters. Market yourself to *everyone* don’t limit yourself by cutting out the majority (lets face it *most* people have a computer nowadays).

    You should be aiming to convince computer owners to upgrade. For example, I built my own machine and I know its good, but its 2 years old now and is starting to lag a bit. I see adverts on the TV for companies that I genuinely *hate*, such as PC World and Dell, but their marketing campaigns are so strong that by the end of the advert I am actually sat there considering buying one of their machines. Subconsciously I know it will fall apart in a year and its already overpriced, but I *still* find it attractive because its being marketed well.

    In a nutshell, advertise advertise advertise, don’t limit yourself.
