Drive for dollars or direct mail?

[Josh Wagner]

Hey everyone!

Just as an initial disclosure, if I'm beating a dead horse, please forgive me. With that being said, my questions directly pertain to my unique situation currently at hand.

Long story short, I lost my job last week.It was my main source of income, considering I usually don't have much time to work as a Realtor. As a result, I'm finished procrastinating and ready to hit the ground on with wholesaling. I have about $1,500 cash to work with for either driving or direct mailing expenses (even though $1,500 in direct mailing is chump change).

My question to those of you who have attempted both is; what do you advise that I do? With $1,500 I can purchase a good amount of very specific leads, but can't afford to have the same amount of leads mailed out to via yellow letters. Do I purchase less amount of leads and just drive for dollars to compensate or do I solely launch a small mailing campaign?

Any tips are greatly appreciated! 

Thanks friends!
