Good luck finding a database that will be useful. It's very easy to
change email addresses. Also it's easy to get an email address
without giving your real name or any other real information. I've
had one for several years. When I signed up for it, Yahoo asked me
where I lived. I told them I live in Beverly Hills. I know snail
mail is more expensive, but you have a better chance of reaching
customers who live in the area you're targeting. You might look
online and find an email address for John Smith, but is that the
John Smith in Cottonwood, or is it the John smith in Barrow, or one
in Melbourne? <br>
<br>
To get accurate email addresses, you would be better off putting up
a request on your business website. If you have a form on the site,
customers can use that. Just be sure to code the form so that
someone can't see the email address the submissions will be going
to. Also you can give an email address, but write out everything
instead of using . and @. For example: greg dot house at vicodin
dot com<div class="im"><br>
