A simple concept that's not easy if I don't have a good source of names to add to my list. I get some names and addresses from my gallery guestbooks, but not that many visitors bother signing and even fewer leave their address. I have an email newsletter - a few people have subscribed - I'll never add names to that list myself because it would seem too 'spamish'. I've had other artists add me to their emaillist and I find that annoying. Any advice on how to get names to add to my mailling list? (other than "be patient, it takes time")? “Update your mailing list on a regular basis”. A simple concept that’s not easy if I don’t have a good source of names to add to my list.
