Always ask for an email.
You have your business to promote and you are looking for solutions that will get consumers to notice you without having to spend a lot of money; the solution is to send an email.
But nothing is more annoying than finding out that you are receiving an email that you did not sign up for. Don’t be that person or business that buys its email list.
The only way you should acquire an email is by asking for it.
Your emails being reported as spam is detrimental to your marketing investment.
Email addresses are valuable across the internet, email addresses are leads and potential money.
Of course, the worst way to ask for an email address is, “Can I have your email?”.
The best way is to appeal to consumers to express their interest in learning more about your business and let them know that by providing their email address they will be given access to exclusive offers and be provided with the latest news, updates and offers. Encourage consumers to sign up to receive more information, promotions, discounts etc.
