Investor list: what is it?

An investor mailing list contains contact information for individuals and groups interested in investment opportunities. Lists can be qualified or unqualified and may include information on investment preferences. Using email and mail campaigns, entrepreneurs can target potential investors. Qualified lists are more expensive but generate higher returns.

An investor mailing list is a document containing contact information for individuals, groups of investors, and other entities known to be interested in various types of investment opportunities. Some of these lists are created by providing a means for investors to voluntarily join the listing. Other times, listings of this type are compiled from a variety of sources and do not involve obtaining permission from each of the investors before including their contact details in the quote.

Data found on an investor mailing list would include basic contact information, such as the investor’s name and mailing address. Today, it’s not uncommon for list details to include email addresses as well. When this is the case, an entrepreneur who is looking to gain support for a new venture can use the directory to organize two simultaneous campaigns. One campaign would focus on a direct marketing send via mail and the second using the investor email list component to manage a campaign using email notifications.

Other information may also be included in the investor mailing list details. Some listings will specify the type of investment opportunity each investor prefers to focus on. For example, the detail may indicate that a particular investor prefers real estate transactions or prefers to focus primarily on bond issues. This can be especially useful when trying to direct initial leads to investors who are most likely interested in the type of opportunity currently available.

As with most types of mailing lists, an investor mailing list can be qualified or unqualified. A qualified list includes only investors who have specifically given their permission to be included in the listing and are open to receiving notifications of upcoming opportunities. Often, such a list is compiled by allowing investors to sign up for an investor mailing list, a process known as opt-in. Lists of this type usually provide a means for an investor to opt out of an investor mailing list, if he or she wishes to do so.

Instead, a mailing list of unqualified investors is generated by pulling names and contact information from a wide variety of sources, with no particular attempt to determine whether such prospective investors wish to be included in the listing. Care should be taken when using lists of this type, as postal items or emails sent using this data may be considered junk mail and spam respectively and could damage the sender’s reputation within the investment community. While a qualified listing typically costs more to purchase, the more targeted listing is likely to generate a higher return. Additionally, participants on a qualified list may broadcast the current opportunity, but still be willing to receive information about future opportunities.
