Received my 1st absentee letter today

I got a letter in the mail today, handwritten name and address from someone in MI. As soon as I opened it, I knew exactly what it was without even reading it.

I was in MI a while back and attended a MREI meeting in Troy, where Robyn Thompson was selling her programs. During the education part, she talked about her absentee letters and how she uses a horse water mark on the paper to produce results. Well the person who sent me the letter must have purchased her program, but decided to use a couple deer instead.

And since we received it, I can now see how some people get freaked out. My wife was asking me questions like, 'how do they know we don't live there?' , 'how do they know our address in NC?', 'we aren't selling the house, are we?'

I'm considering calling him and letting him know to add me to his buyers list.
