I am considering selling computers but there is no point marketing at people who already own them.
Is it possible to obtain email lists of people who own PC's?
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??
Reply:what on 2 billion pc owners.
Reply: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.
Reply:If you got a website you could sell them to people who have none, just advertize with the library, etc.
Reply: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.
