Yellow letters - Lined or Unlined paper?

[Teresa DelaMater]

Hi y'all! I'm getting ready to send out my first direct mail marketing letters, and I was wondering if I should buy lined or unlined paper. I'm actually having a tough time finding lined yellow paper 8.5x11 that is thick enough not to jam a printer, so I'm leaning towards the unlined paper which is easier to find. Maybe I'm overthinking this, but I'd appreciate some advice! Also, what have people written on the letter that has generated the most leads? Thanks!

@Jan Wanot I have my own database I started compiling a few years back. I go to different stores and buy data directly from them, and I also pull from the big 3 bureaus. I suggest getting a tool like TLO or Lexis Nexis. A lot of investors on BP have access to them, and I think TLO charges $1.00 a search atop of the monthly fee. The numbers are spotty for both tools and may be outdated. But it'll get you by if you're only doing a couple hundred records per month. If you need to skip trace thousands, then it can get pricy. Please let me know if you'd like for me to clarify anything I stated!
