Sent first batch of Yellow Letters

So I decided to put my big boy pants on and purchase my first yellow letters. I sent just over 1000 letters to absentee owners around my surrounding area. They went out just before the weekend and now that I just got back from a weekend getaway I have about 30 voicemails sitting in my inbox. I look forward to calling people although I am pretty nervous as to what to say to them exactly. Any tips on this part would be appreciated, but more than anything I know people like to follow progress on things like this so I will be following up. I am nervous but trying to break through and create my dream.

Update. I just closed on the first property Monday. To all that were involved it was the first time working an assignment deal and we just worked our way through it. The escrow agent I found to work with included. She was great and figured out how to get this done and make it work for everyone. In the end I made out with my first check of $5,600 which I should be seeing in the mail today, and everyone else involved was happy. I will not say everything went as smooth as possible, but we kept pushing forward and learned a lot in the process. That same day I put property #2 under contract and am looking forward to getting a quick buyer for this one.

I had a great response with the yellow letters. And plan on using a Letter first for my lists, followed up by postcards a month later or so as I'm still getting a few late phone calls.

The goal was to just go for it and get that first check and I did just that. Super excited for more to come!
