Can you Make it Wholesaling Without Using Direct Mail

[Account Closed]

I want to hear from those who have tried it or have an opinion.  I have enjoyed calling my leads personally.  Mind you it is not TIME effective but I like people, enjoy their stories and build good relationships.  I am trying to fight the direct mail strategy.  Am I fighting a silly battle?

Interesting question! There is something special about connecting with someone in person. I went walking for dollars intending to send direct mail, and I actually met a few neighbors that turned into a couple leads and a few good stories. I haven't been able to do that 100% of the time, but I believe the more personal you can get, whether you're mailing or not, the better. I also had a guy call me who said "I get a lot of these cards but I called you because it looked like you put a lot of time into the mail you sent me."
