I have a list of local religious locations that I have used in the past for work.
With the economy so bad, do I dare to offend those past clients by sending them a marketing email.

I am just a bit worried that it will alienate them.

So I guess my question is, how to I send them email marketing without offending them?
Will I then just become a piece of SPAM?

Not sure on your perception why a religious faction would label your returning services as SPAM, unless you're SPAM!
Make sense?

Add a personal touch to your message sent to them and give them a feel for your presence and current affiliations with life?
Don't see any real depth since you are very vague about what you asked.

My 2 cents
