Looking to start direct mail to get my phone ringing. I mainly dial for dollars and the deals are not consistent, and it's very time consuming. Do you recommend yellow letters and postcards?

Your gonna find pro postcard pro yellow letter different styles differ methods to direct mail by many I think your message should be clear what can you do for them regardless of what type of mail Most importantly you need to find an audience that your message will resonate with. The best message falling on deaf ears is futile. Postcards or yellow letter works if you are targeting the right Property owner Direct mail works when You Direct your message directly to those that have a higher probability of needing to sell. That with a good mail piece be it postcard or letter has the higher probability of you ultimately purchasing a property at a profitable price

    My post card journey wasn't fruitful but my yellow letter foray was a lot better. It could also depend on a lot of other factors. Use the keyword feature on here and research what your looking for.

    Hi Damien,

    I am a newb so maybe I am wrong but I think you would target the same list of people that you call. 

    Non-owner occupied, tax liens, code violations,  equity>50%, deceased tenant but not in probate is what has been recommended to me but I have only made 20 calls thus far so I do not know how well it works. Only 3 people have picked their phone up. What have you been doing for cold calling that works effectively?
