Direct Calling vs Direct Mail

[Kyle Civittolo]

I have read a lot about direct mail on this site. What I was wondering is if people have tried direct calling instead? I started putting a list together (mainly of people behing on taxes in my farm area). I then would dig deeper and see how long they have owned the property and how much equity they have. Doing simple google searches I have started adding these peoples phone numbers into my excel sheet. So my question is, would anyone recommend actually calling these people first instead of send them mailings? It would be tough to call a huge list, but might be interesting to test on 40-50 people. I am lnvesting in the Hartford, CT area FYI.

Thanks,
