Hand Written Direct Mail Vs. Typed Direct Mail

[Jeff Jacques]

Im sending out hand written direct mail letters to sheriff sale leads and probate leads. My hand writing is decent and I've made sure to use a letterhead template to make it look personal but professional. I've sent out about 20 hand written letters in the last 3 days, writing as much as I can after work for as long as I can keep my eyes open. Im wondering if there is a better way. If I just use a general template typed up does it boost my professinalism and productivity? Then what seperates me from the other letters being sent by other investors. Does it even matter? Am I over thinking it? On top of that I just listen to the BP Podacst show #255 and Elliot Smith was talking about sending 6000 pieces of mail a month! Like how? Looking for some guidance in this matter. Thanks BP.
