If you sell the whole business, then the email list or 'prospect list' naturally comes with this purchase.

The challenge in selling just the list is that you actually sell the list such that you're not really just selling a copy.

For example, if you sell a copy, then you may fall afoul of spam laws because those people didn't give permission for their names to go to another user in addition to you.

What you may wish to do to make it easier is to sell the list along with your account access to the mail provider, ie your Mailchimp access or whomever you use.

This way you are truly selling a business asset and not just selling someone a 'copy' of your list.

Hope that helps.
