Sure thing.
I paid 45 cents per postcard...that includes everything except the list.
My list was 15.5 cents per record.
Happy to share my printer if interested pm me.

Define "success".
I mailed 2500 postcards last Friday...got 10 calls so far(almost 1/2 percent).
3 were non-prospects...7 are absentee homeowners with a home in our target area.
Spoke with 6 of them so far...one got pissed at our offer...the other 5 get it and were cordial.
Meeting with one next week- is motivated to do something.
A couple of others may be motivated down the road.
Bottom line? I went from reading about how to do it to doing it...learning a ton along the way.
Good luck!
@Nick Collins - I did my first mailing last Friday using ListSource...but was unable to get enough records when I tried to target older owners.
Would you mind sharing your list source with me?
And by the way...got 10 calls so far out of 2,500 mailed...so ratio is low- but 7 out of 10 are real people with various stages of motivation...so all good from a learning standpoint for me.
Good luck!

Awesome Berny thanks! Please send one my way- I've been temporarily "banned" from connecting for some reason.
I do have a unique deal I'm working on...1.1 acre lot with a tear down mobile home on it.
Wondering if any investors might be interested in buying?

I'm working with a 1.1 acre lot with a tear down mobile home in Cumming.
Do you know of any investors who might want to buy something like this?
Thanks,
Bill

Thanks Lydia- appreciate your reply!
I have spoken with 3 others since this one...one of them looking more like a real possibility.
I'll be passing on the one I shared.

Hey Blake,
Just mailed out our first run of 2,500 last Friday to absentee owners...using yellow postcards.
8 calls so far...1 remove from list...1 already sold...1 is a commercial building.
The other 5 are a combination of tire-kickers/what can you offer? But- great practice talking to homeowners for the first time and getting it all down.
Good luck!
Bill
