Results of First Direct Mail Campaign

Hey BP,

So a week after I sent out my first campaign these are the results...

370 pieces mailed to high equity, absentee, out-of-state owners

15 call backs

Talked to people that were in all kinds of different situations.  Some people yelled at me.  Some talked for half an hour or more.  

In the process of working out a deal with a seller.  Have an appointment to meet another seller next week who has multiple houses to sell.  Made a few offers and am still waiting to hear back.

All in all, I think it has been a successful "experience".  I didn't expect to make a deal out of every call, but now the seed  is planted and I am taking action.  The next mailing will bring me a deal!
