I met Doug Morneau many years ago as the VP of Zacks Vertical Reach Media, and I learned many things from the knowledge he gave so freely. He taught me about new technology and to remain open-minded about this ever-changing world of marketing. My favorite aspect of Doug is his passion. His passion for his family, his health, and of course marketing. He brings that passion to his new book “Three BIG Lies”. Anyone who reads it will learn a great deal; and will recognize how much Doug loves what he does.

Email marketing is not dead. If you’re not using it, you’re losing. In fact, I don’t think anything is ever dead. Some things aren’t as valuable as they used to be. But the ironic thing is that I actually think email is a VERY strong platform at the moment. We all need to market in the year we live in. So right now, email is a killer app.

Back story on why I wrote

What if you could reach your ideal customer, each of whom has raised their hand, asked to be contacted, and given permission to receive information about the exact product or service that you offer?

Wouldn’t you agree that would be a great opportunity to share your story, your offering, and offer to help them with their problem, by purchasing from you?

At every event, discussion with authors, business groups, and entrepreneurs over the last 5 years the revelation has been the same. None of them realized that they could use permission-based marketing via email list rental to immediately gain access to hundreds of thousands of potential consumers of their products and services.

While this lead generation marketing tactic is well known within a small circle of marketers, it’s been absent in the discussion at marketing conferences, and the boardroom. If it has been discussed, email list rental has been misunderstood, wrongfully maligned, and ignored.

“Doug reveals the lucrative potential of email list rental. He dispels myths about email marketing being dead and shares resources and tricks to maximize ROI. This book is a valuable resource for marketers aiming to boost sales and profits.”

Brian Greenberg

“A must-read for those buying lists and conducting email marketing. This book offers brilliant ideas and is essential for anyone looking to purchase marketing lists.”

During the biggest financial crisis in the history of the world since the great depression, Doug helped his clients raise over $100M in venture capital for their publicly traded companies by sending their story to multiple permission-based rented email lists, using online pay per click advertising, and social media.

His bold aggressive strategy grew his client’s businesses massively and made Doug the largest single largest purchaser of rented email lists in North America booking as much as $16M per year of this media.

With Doug’s extensive experience renting permission-based third-party email lists he has helped his clients to reach millions of potential investors online. In addition to online investors, he has used this targeted and responsive email media to identify and market to many industries, sectors, and consumer group matching his client’s avatar or ideal customer.

So was out of the lack of current and accurate information on the topic, that Doug wrote his book 3 Big Lies. He shares the good, the bad, and the ugly truth of how to leverage third email lists. With plenty of specific details and case studies, he walks through the topic in nontechnical terms suitable for both the experience and new reader on this topic.
