Hi,

I was thinking about the mailing list as a business.
Does anyone know how this works?
I have an idea that could generate marketing information, particularly mailing lists, of the type:

"I need a the X type businesses in this area"

I was wondering what's the best way to go about marketing this kind of business. Any feedback or information would be help ful, like how to people go about mailing lists at present?

Also, what exactly is the most common request, i.e. the most biggest market? I assumed automatically, that it would be some kind of mailing list, as any business start ups etc, would want to target a group, and send some kind of mailing or communication to them.

The conclusion was, if I can confirm what kind/s of request is the most common, and business based around that would be the ideal starting point!

Any Feedback from Information Professional, particualarly who have set up Information/Business Intelligence based business would be ideal.

Many Thanks.
