Direct mail campaigne on a limited budget.
Would a direct mail campaign of sending out 50 yellow letters a week be enough to start receiving calls? My plan is to market these same 200 prospects each month. Not sure if I should market to these same 200 each month, or market to 400 prospects and resend to them every other month. I'm trying to stay within a budget of $200 a month. I am looking to wholesale and this will be my 1st direct mail marketing campaign. Any help or suggestions appreciated.

Any number is better than 0, right? Do what you can with the budget you have - and consider:
1) Postcards, which you can do around 50 cents each vs. letters at ~$1 each. That would double how many you hit.
2) With a small budget I think your option of hitting people every other month - in order to double the # of people reached - is a good idea.
As Gerald said, it's all about getting your # of contacts up. Good news is you're in Caddo Mills, TX - a list of 800 addresses might be just about everyone out there! =)
Last thing - don't just mail a few letters and then sit back and wait for the phone to ring. Make your mailing 1 part of your strategy. The biggest thing you can do is WORK YOUR CENTER OF INFLUENCE (COI) - the people you know. Business cards and car magnets are not very expensive - use them to let everyone know that you are in this business.
