Mondays are typically rough as its the first day of the week for most people at the day job. I'd suggest a Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday. I think the time and place works.

Also whatever is decided I would suggest the same day each month. Example Second Tuesday of the month. Also not everyone's going to be able to make it and you would spend all day trying to confirm a day. My suggestion would be majority rules. If the majority of the people can make it on whatever given day, time, and place than that becomes the day, time, and place.

I personally could not make Mondays but again I am just one person.

Again just my thoughts.

As I stated during a previous post, I no longer live there so frankly I do not have the time to organize and start a meetup for the area. With that being said I would be happy to attend one from time to time as my schedule allows if someone else wants to start one. With the contacts I have in the area and word of mouth, I am sure I could get it full pretty quick.

My suggestion would be to start with a weekday time in the morning and plan to meet somewhere that everyone could eat some breakfast and chat. You can never go wrong with a Denny's lol. Maybe the one on Kemp St.

Anyway just sharing my thoughts and keep me in the loop. 

@Jacob Payne shouldn’t need a attorney to do a wholesale deal. I use $100 on my contracts but $25 earnest money is fine.  Feel free to email me info if you need help as I’ve done several wholesale deals in Wichita Falls

Abundance not scarcity mindset.

@ Wichita Falls. Well I started this thread so figure I’d comment. I don’t have the time to start and organize a meet-up but I could make it once a month during the day if someone else wants to get it started. Being from the area I know a few locals I could invite as well. On a side note I’ve got Wichita Falls streamlined and getting ready to launch marketing in Abilene TX Thx and keep me updated

Us lead list.com

@Jerryll Noorden I can appreciate your perspective and agree with you to some point. My target markets are very rural so direct mail still works to some degree. In addition my websites are not ranked very high yet so once I get to that point and start getting more leads from the site I will probably scale back on DM. Either way thanks for the input.

I have a Absentee Owner list that I market to. I bought my original list about 2 years ago and every 6 months I re-run my list with the same criteria ( 18mth in the past or longer of last market sales date, 60%-100% equity, SFR, etc.) to catch any new leads that now fit my criteria during the six months when I last ran it. Hope that makes sense.

I split the list up to where every lead gets hit once every 8 weeks. At this point my oldest leads ( and the biggest amount of the 1400 which was on the original list that I bought) have been hit at least 7 times.

I am thinking about paying a VA to look up every lead on the tax record and record the most current sales date. Any lead that has a date that is now sooner than 18 months from today tells me that property was sold, has a new owner, and no longer fits my criteria from when I originally bought the lead. I would then import the revised data into my CRM and delete the properties that had a sales date of less than 18 months from today.

The cost to do this would be $280 or about $0.20 per lead. My rationale would be that the money spent could possible be recouped from no longer sending mailers to the leads that had new property owners from when I originally pulled the property leads and therefore no longer fit my criteria. I wouldn't know this information unless the property owner called to tell me the previous owner no longer owned it or if I received the mailer back. I have hit the lists enough time that I rarely get returned mail.

Is this worth my time and money? Just curious of what the forum thought.
