Just bought my first 1000 Postcards!

So i pulled the trigger on 1000 postcards from yellowletters.  I went with one of their templates.  I've downloaded Sharon Vornholt's script and a couple of others and a rehab checklist.  My dad and two uncles run a contracting business so they will help with the repair estimates.  So I'm ready to go. I want to be good at what I do and not be a "crappy wholesaler." I will also be meeting with a local rehabber soon and hope to partner up and learn some more.  

Couple of questions: Phone calls.  How are you guys tracking them and how are you handling them? Do you let them all go to voicemail or answer immediately?  I'm planning to answer immediately.  How are you guys buying without even looking at the house? Should I contact the buyers first or should I lock down the deal first?  I'm planning to lockdown the deal first.  Any advice is appreciated.

@Ryan Billingsley

I have to disagree with regard to negotiation taking time.  

We wrote 48 contracts last month and never met a seller.  Never looked at a house  and should close the year at 500. 

The key is systemization and marketing.  

We are buying at least a house a day and every seller conversation is recorded and available to listen to at my Academy site.  Powerful stuff.  

The really cool part is that my Alexes and Ryans are not investors nor have they ever wanted to be.  They're gals hired thru a temp service who fallow a scripts and systemization.  

One last thing.  We buy all over the country.  Never leaving the office.  We don't rehab or repair.  A total hands off approach to wholetailing.  

And we still solve the sellers problems.
