Leon D -

I've experimented with different things inside of lumpy mail. That is really what this is by the way. It is mail with something that catches the attention of the recipient and gets them to open. When you use fake money it does not work. When we have experimented with fake bills and even fake coins inside of tube mailers, the response rate drops well below the response rate of your normal everyday letter or postcard. I would not suggest using something that makes you look cheap or like you are faking it until you make it. At some things that is good but in direct mail marketing, I have tested it and it does not work. Stick to letters, postcards or yellow letters until you have the ability to test other things that are going to be more expensive like mailing dollar bills.

All the best - Chris

But, hopefully not before they get to their intended recipient! :)
