I've saved enough money to order 1500 postcards that come in Tomorrow! Also I have a disposable 1000 dollars. How would you use this money in additional marketing? With the knowledge you have now how would you do it today with only that. I do Drive for Dollars, I will be doing that. any additional advice would be immensely appreciated! Thanks for being the best group in the world!

Remember that marketing has to be targeted and sustainable.  You'll need to hit most good prospects many times before seeing a return.  So if I were spending that on mailers and postage, I would make sure that I had 6-12 months, at least of mailing.  

If that means that I'm only targeting 150 people, then I would make sure that those are the 150 people that will be selling.  I would not hit 1,800 people once, I would rather hit 150 people 12 times.

And to maximize this to the fullest potential, I would be calling them as well.  In fact, I'm dodging my calls right now by hiding on BP -- making a few calls now!
