Are there actually companies that will pay you $$$ for a list of emails?
- jen20 7mo agoNot exactly, but plenty will just sell everything to data brokers.
- gruez 7mo ago>but plenty will just sell everything to data brokers. Again, "sell" implies that there's some company where they'll accept data from anyone and pay them for it, which so far as I can tell doesn't exist. That's not to say there's no selling going on. The fact that data brokers exist means they do, but that doesn't mean every business is in a position to "sell" data.

- alt227 7mo agoMy boss has paid many people for lists of email addresses in the past. Im pretty sure he is not a mythical being!
- renewiltord 7mo agoYou can buy it. But companies don’t sell it. Email lists are worth nothing to enterprise.
