Can I email 2000 prospects at once in Minnesota? What are the requirements?
Emailing Prospects in Minnesota
In Minnesota, there are laws that regulate unsolicited commercial email, also known as spam. The law requires that all commercial emails sent to Minnesota residents must include a valid physical postal address of the sender and a clear and conspicuous notice that the email is an advertisement or solicitation. Additionally, the email must provide a mechanism for the recipient to opt-out of future emails [1].
It is important to note that sending unsolicited commercial emails to a large number of recipients at once, also known as “email blasting,” can be considered spamming and is illegal in Minnesota [1].
Requirements for Emailing Prospects
To ensure compliance with Minnesota law, it is recommended that you obtain the consent of the recipients before sending them commercial emails. This can be done by obtaining their email addresses through a sign-up form on your website or by asking for their permission to send them emails during a conversation or meeting [2].
Additionally, it is important to keep your email list up-to-date and to promptly remove any recipients who have opted-out of receiving future emails. Failure to do so can result in penalties and legal action [1].
Conclusion
In summary, emailing 2000 prospects at once in Minnesota without their consent can be considered spamming and is illegal. It is recommended that you obtain their consent before sending them commercial emails and that you comply with all requirements under Minnesota law.
