Sent Out First Probate Mailer...Pumped Up!
Hey BP,
I am super pumped that I had my first round of yellow letters go out to Probate Leads here in Houston...and I have start receiving my first few calls back! My first call back said, "Take Me Off Your List!" and my second call today, said, "How can you make a living this way you dirty scum bag!" Now while for many this may seem kind of an oxymoron, but here is what I just found out...my letter reached its destination and someone opened it!
I am so pumped that I know without a doubt 2 of my 500 letters we opened, read, and someone had a enough determination to call me. This lets me know I have more calls to come and all I need to do is hit the ball 3x.
While this may discourage new investors, you must think like a pro baseball player, if you hit the ball 2 out of 10 times you are in the minor leagues, if you hit the ball 3 out of 10 times you are pro ball player and making millions. It doesn't matter the no's...I need more no's because my 3 yes's will net me at least 30K in wholesale deals or more if I flip the property myself.
My rhetorical question to everyone is, "What are you focused on? The amounts no's or the amounts of yes's?"
Keep your mind steady!

i focus more on the amount of no's, that way I can thank them for saving me money by taking them off my list and sending the letters to new prospects who might actually let me sell their house. congrats on taking action!
