Wholesaling in Ohio-while not an agent

I've just started doing some Direct Mail and 4 days after sending 100 mailers to a focused area I've already received 5 phone calls, and 5 opportunities to do walk throughs with the owners. Whether a deal happens or not isn't what I'm worried about. My question is, if I continue to use Direct Mail and have a successful response rate, how do I turn those leads I can't procure into sales. I've read the forums on how wholesaling is illegal, but then I just listened to podcast #42 with Mike Nelson, who isn't an agent, isn't double closing, and is still wholesaling in Ohio-- granted that pod is from 2013, but I guess my question, is there anyway to attempt to wholesale whatever overflow I have from my Direct Mail campaign in Ohio? 

Cheers

 What you can do is use transactional funding to double close on the property.  This makes you a principal owner if only for five minutes.
