How can I promote my small business by email marketing?

Hi I just surfed through your website and it is great. I think U know this incident that a boy in USA aged 16 has improved his father’s business(furniture selling). He just build a website and made this furniture available for everybody through out the world. he given priority to the customers views and their suggestions in making furniture. So try in unique way and different way to improve your business. Use all the opportunities you have. I cannot say do that or do this. Opportunities change from place to place and person to person. But this is true that trying in different and unique way will lead your business to your dream business. Try it. try it. try it. Success will be yours. I suggest you to visit this website http://www.milliondollarhomepage.com and read his blog. Then about your junk mail who will read the junk mail all the junk mail will go in to the junk folder and many will delete these mails just by seeing the subjects! How many offers will they receive daily in junk mails.. So try it in different way. Think you can..

Cafepress has rules against spamming so be careful in using bulk email as a way of advertising. If you dont buy a list and just get one for free then its most likely a non opt-in list and the emails you send out would be considered spam.

I know you want to advertise for as low a cost as possible so I found a link to the 10 best free advertising websites.

I’m going to agree with other posters — not many people appreciate getting spam.

Have you thought about pay per click programs? The two biggest, I think, are Yahoo! and Google

A few free resources – check out the sources box for links:

1) Create a blog pertaining to your field

2) Use Yahoo! Local & Yahoo! Groups – Be sure to read the TOS for each one!

3) Write articles pertaining to your field and/or expertise.

4) Advertise on Craiglist

Also, consider signing up for an affiliate program. These programs enable you to advertise on other’s sites (your affiliates) and once a sale is made to you, your affiliates & the program are paid a commission.

I listed a few handy sites & articles relating to marketing, promotion & advertising. Here are some book titles that are relevant:
