Yup, edge cases exist.   Hence my emphasis on "_usually_".   ;-)


>>They're also marketing on Facebook and Twitter, 

Whoa!  Good to see they are taking the business plan seriously!


>>Once the system is in place, it shouldn't take that much per year.
>>Wouldn't most of that involve automation? 

Not really.  You could, I guess, throw together a couple of screens of opt-in opinion collection for people from the list you mail to ... and that may be all you need at this point in time.  But it's not a statistically random sample, so you should not project the results.  Additionally, you may have significant issues in non-response bias.  And, being *somewhat* restricted to the list, it doesn't really gather any information about potential customers not on the list.
