Some people say that any unrequested email is considered spam, personally I feel sending 1 personalized email to market your product or service isn't spam.

If the subject and message itself was clear that it wasn't a mass produced/mailed message, I wouldn't consider it spam.

But, with what the spammers do with subject lines these days, it's getting harder and harder to differentiate between the good and the bad

I don’t really think its SPAM, but when I get 10 of them to 10 different domains that I own, that all say “I just visited your site <my domain here> and I think it would be perfect to advertise our program……” Seems a bit insincere at that point, so I simply delete them all and I don’t give it a second thought.
