A message that advertises or sells something.

In practice

Offers, sales and launches are promotional. They are commercial messages and so carry the rules for commercial email: honest headers, identification and an opt-out. Mailbox providers often sort them into a promotions view.

Verification and sending

Promotional sends are the ones that go to large lists, so a clean list matters most here.
