Is there anything wrong with using a previous email list?
I have 2 or 3 email lists in mail chimps that were used for other websites. Is there anythng wrong with using these emails to start a list for my niche here?
Should I contact them individually and tell them what I am doing and ask if I can add them to my website? Some of these people I know personally.
Suggestions would be welcomed.
Thanks,
Mary Ann

Were the other email lists in the same or an associated niche?
This should determine whether they are likely to be interested in your new niche.

I would think twice about sending to them unless the other niche was in marketing.
Prospects signed up to the list to learn about the niche that list is covering.
