Mailchimp is one of the cheapest email services out there but any âspamâ should be sent with an smtp service.

I will make one! I will also document getting an account for Amazon SES. I heard from several people that they were rejected without any (known) reason.

Awesome cant wait !
In my experience, Amazon SES setup becomes infinitely faster if you have a domain verified and you set up DKIM on it. In the 4-5 times that Iâve used SES, this factor was the sole difference between being verified/not being verified.
Once itâs set up, keeping it activated is a whole different ball game, especially with second hand lists or scrapes. I think they look for <5% bounce rate? And a whole buttload of other requirements.

Mautic has many options. You can for example use plugins in Wordpress to collect email adresses. You know⌠These popus on websites asking you for your email. Or plugings with a teaser to collect adresses. Adresses will be added automatically to Mautic. After that Mautic will send the pdf. You can make all kind of conditions. Make differences in next emails based on if someone read the email or not etc. You can send emails after they visited a specific page on your website. These are all things Massplanner cannot do.

Sorry mate, starting today that is no longer true. GDPR changed that. Know all cold emails are ilegal in Europe.
Donât know how realistic it is that they will inforce the new regulation though mostly if the one company is in the US or not in the EU.

Assuming all of these E-Mail addresses have been scraped from Instagram business accounts - would that also constitute as a business to business enquiry, seeing how all of those accounts on Instagram are marked as businesses?

Well your all in the gray zone. To put it simply we are not allowed to send un solicited information. It doesnât matter if itâs a person or a business, but if you are the one soliciting information and manage to turn the conversation around?
Basically if you ask enough questions the person is going to get curious and ask you for some information. Again though you can only send them the information they asked for, not a nothing more.
Also you have to save that conversation in case a controller wants you to prove you did not send him unsolicited information. At this point the only way that this can happen is if someone registers a complain, which takes maybe 20min.
Oh and in case you get them to agree to get constant information like a ânewsletterâ it has to be essay for them to opt out.
