Client Lists

Does Biz-e-News provide email lists?

Biz-e-News can only be used with email lists consisting of recipients with whom you have permission to communicate. Please read our Anti Spam Policy.

What happens to my list after I upload it in to Biz-e-News?

Biz-e-News will never rent, share or sell your list. Your list is safe behind our heavily protected firewalls. Your list will reside in your Biz-e-News account until you remove it. For more details read our Email Privacy Policy.

How do I get my list imported in to my Biz-e-News account?

Simply forward your list to clientservices@bizenews.com. We will accept your email addresses in 2 formats; .csv (Comma Separated Values) and .xls (Microsoft® Excel® Spreadsheet). All we need is first name, last name, email address and salutation.

If I want to use the email addresses I have in my Microsoft® Outlook® Address book, how do I get them in to Biz-e-News?

To use the contacts from your Microsoft® Outlook®, you must export your Contact folder to a .csv (Comma Separated Values) and .xls (Microsoft® Excel® Spreadsheet) and send to clientservices@bizenews.com.

What if I don't have an email list?

No Problem. It's time to get started! There are several ways you can collect email addresses. Biz-e-News provides a list building tool in the form of a ‘sign up box' to be put on your website. Your site visitors can sign up for your email list and their addresses are automatically imported in to your Biz-e-News account.

Other ways to collect would be to set up a sign-up sheet at your front counter, or when you collect customer/prospect details simply have customers provide you with their email addresses. You will import these into your Biz-e-News account. Just make sure that any time you touch base with someone, you are sure to ask them to sign up to your list.
