How do you do this without being nailed for spam?

Hi All,

(I posted this in "domain development" too. I hope that's okay.)

I was wondering... how can I go about contacting someone by email regarding a name I think they would be interested in... without being accused of spamming them?

For example, I’d like to take LogoStreet.com and contact about twenty webmasters who run a logo site, and see if they would like the name in addition too or to replace their existing name.

How can I write to them offering them the name without them getting upset at an uninvited email?

Thanks for any responses to this.

Cheers,
ezinestein

send it to one name at a time and not have 19 names in the CC list

In your letter, state that they are being contacted because you feel that the domain may be on interest to them and it is a one time mailing. Sending to one person at a time is also good.

When I send such an emails, I have almost no problems. Once they reported spam to my ISP though. Once they e-mailed back with full of &^%@ words. Once they advised they are ready to buy the name for what it worth ($35 as they stated).
Yes it is good sales channel. But be ready that most of your e-mails would be ignored, many will be returned undelivered...
