    If you need help with direct mail marketing, shoot me a message if you need coaching on how to use direct mail effectively to increase your deal flow in your real estate pipeline. You'll save both time or money rather than figuring it out on your own when I can teach you what works and things to avoid that will kill your response and conversion rates. If you need some help getting started, I can provide some guidance and send you a direct mail game plan, checklist of things to prepare to increase your chances of success, scripts on how to talk to different types of sellers, software to use for your real estate investing including customer relationship management (CRM) software, templates for your direct mail, contracts, calculators, etc.

    Only message me if you're serious - just add me as a colleague and message me with information on where you are in the process with your direct mail. It's important to say where you are so I can provide the right advice for your situation.

    I've already coached many new wholesalers/flippers to successfully start their marketing or increase their deal flow. Although this is free, I don't just do it for anyone. I've helped a lot of people so I can tell who the time-waster talkers are and see who are the ones that take action to get results.

    @Marilyn H.

    It depends on your market and how competitive it is. For competitive markets 3-4 weeks is good, for less competitive tier 2-3 markets, you can get away with less mailing frequency 4-6 weeks. 

    Do not use the same letter. You should be mixing types and different messages but keep your same logo/brand so they build awareness.

    At a minimum you want 7+ mailings but we've picked up deals after 2+ years of mailings in competitive markets. 

    The more competitive your market, the more long term mailings you need to pick up deals.
