Ps/// mofsd will be updated pretty soon. Super sorry for the delay.

There are growing numbers of online shops now with mailing lists. They send their updates to their customers which are fine by anyone who has subscribed to their shop’s mailing list. For those who love updates, it is really a great tool.

What is worrying is that the emails come one after another sometimes a few times in a day. It gets worst when there are a few shops using the same mailing list emails because they just copied the emails from another blog shop’s mailing list. A few people has emailed us asking emmagem if we have sent out their emails to online shops. DISCLAIMER: EMMAGEM DO NOT SHARE ANYONE’S EMAILS FROM OUR SUBSCRIPTION. We like to keep them sacred as they are our readers :D. No, we do not do such things. If there’s any emails coming from us, it will be signed by either me or yetmee and with official emmagem emails like these- karenmarie@emmagem.com/yetmee@emmagem.com/emmagemdotcom at gmail So it is legitimate.

I understand, it gets quite annoying to see your inbox filled with emails from people whom you do not even subscribe to. What’s even worst is that when asked to be removed from the list, they do not reply the person. When you send emails out to people who are not interested, its called SPAMMING. Spamming is unacceptable because it is very annoying, lah! :/

How NOT to spam emails to shopaholics’ inboxes?

  1. Only send out emails to your OWN subscribers.
  2. DO NOT steal emails from forwarding messages and send your updates to them.
  3. Use the BCC Function on emails. So that you do not share your subscriptions’ emails with everyone else to be stolen.
  4. ALLOW people to unsubscribe to the mailing list at any time by providing means to do so. Usually people just have to click reply and type “unsubscribe”.
  5. DO take out people who unsubscribed to your mailing list.Do not just ignore their emails.
  6. Sign your name with your shop’s name to be legitimate.

We hope that ALL blogshops who are sending mailing lists updates abide by these guides to avoid being called spams. You want to have a good impression to your customers!

To everyone being spammed, email the spammers and tell them that you want out, if not the emails will never stop coming.

Send your shop updates/mailing list to karenmarie@emmagem.com!
