Finding Email Addresses

If you have a small business or online shop, then you might want to try email marketing. Email marketing is a powerful and cost-effective tool that allows you to promote your business to clients and potential customers. You should keep in mind, though, that when doing email marketing, it’s important for you to have a list of email addresses that you’re going to send messages to. So what will you do if you haven’t taken note of clients’ email addresses or lost some of them? Below are some tips to help you find the email addresses you’re looking for.

* Search through your email account. Perhaps you just forgot to save some email addresses. If you rarely erase emails and you’ve emailed your clients before, chances are the email addresses are just in your email account.

* Look for email addresses in your stash of business cards. Business cards usually contain email addresses of individuals. You might even find some email addresses that you weren’t looking for but would be happy to store in your client list.

* Find email addresses online. You can look for the email addresses of various individuals by looking for them on the Internet. You can do this by searching using dedicated search engines. It’s also advisable for you to search for their email addresses in social networking sites in case you know that they’re a member of some of these sites.

* Ask somebody for their email address. You can try getting the email addresses of people through a couple of common friends. This is the easiest way for you to get their email addresses.

CC and BCC: What These Are and How These Should be Used

When composing a message in your email’s message box, you most likely have noticed the CC and BCC fields. These fields can contain addressees of the email you’re going to send. Don’t know the difference between a CC and a BCC? Below are some information on what these are and how these should be used.

CC means carbon copy or courtesy copy, and this field is used to contain the email addresses of all the persons whom you want to send a copy of the email you are sending. For example, if you’re working on a project with a team and you were asking your boss or telling him about something that concerns the project, then you’re going to put your boss’s email address on the To field and then input your teammates’ email addresses on the CC field. All the recipients, both your boss and your teammates will see who exactly got the message.

But what if you want to send a copy of the message to someone but don’t want others to know that that person received a copy? Then that’s when you should use the BCC field. BCC means blind carbon/courtesy copy, and this field is usually used when someone is being sneaky or when the sender just doesn’t want to explain why he or she feels the need to send someone else a copy of the email message. This field can also be used so that the recipients won’t see the email addresses of the others who got a copy of the email. This way, their email addresses are protected and they can be sure that other people who don’t know them won’t get their email addresses through the email you sent.
