As a 500 Startup mentor I would suggest the following 1) Blog about distribution, design and data. Those are the things that 500 values most and usually the fastest way to get on their radar. 2) Interact with @davemcclure (and all other partners) on Twitter 3) Attend geeks on a plane or other eve...
It always starts with the list. You mention 'non opt-in' lists, which is certainly more troublesome than any domain name. Your best course of action is to get a new domain, re-confirm the lists you have (requiring the subscriber to click through in order to stay on), and only accept confirmed op...

So do it. As consultants, it is incredibly easy to work remotely with modern technology. What do you see holding you back? To attract new prospects, you can have a website and publish authoritative content targeting your ideal customer base. For lead generation, you can host webinars or onlin...
