Nadia Hammond · Answer 1

The number of potential customers reached by the company is the total number of people that received their promotional material

First mailing list - 2,500 addresses

Second mailing list - 3,500 addresses

Third mailing list - 4,000 addresses

Total is, 2500 + 3500 + 4000

= 10,000

Therefore, their promotional materials reached 10,000 potential customers.
