I have it set up manually. Meaning when a subscription request comes in from our website, I have to add them to the mailing list, as opposed to using an automatic system where when they join , they are automatically on the list.
I like managing it manually to keep track of things.
Well, for the first time, a competitor has signed up for the mailing list. A direct competitor. So, I had to ask our National Sales Manager whether we should add him on. He requested that we keep the subscriber off, for obvious reasons.
Is this ethical? Is it ok to keep our competitors from joining our mailing list? What do you all think?
Thanks!
