I have some questions regarding direct mail and the postcards people use.
1. Where is the best/cheapest place to buy them?
2. Does the company you purchased them from print the message or do you hand write it?
3. Is there a way for the company to personalize the message? By that I mean saying something like, "I would like to buy your property at 123 Main St."
Thank you in advance.
Check out Yellow Letters Complete, they do post cards in addition to yellow letters. They "computer generate" handwritten messages on the post cards. You can provide a CSV (spreadsheet) file and accomplish this just fine.
1. Depends on whether you're doing it in-house or outsourcing the whole process.
2. If you're using a full service company, they print the message. Most companies offer a lot of templates.
3. Yes for most companies that do the outsourcing. The prices, quality, and services differ so you can save yourself money by shopping around.
Sounds like you're starting your first DM campaign. Your path should be dependent on your resource constraints: is it time or money? If you are short on cash and want to do it yourself, can send you some templates to use.

Hey @Ray Lai I'm in the process of sending out letters myself, and I was wondering whether you still have sample templates for direct mailing to share.
