Marketing for sellers-automated mass voicemails

I have been looking for ways to streamline my marketing. In the past, I've been doing a mix of yellow letters and calling people. Although it sucks to do, calling people has been way more successful. Even if you end up leaving a message, I think prospects like hearing you are a real person, who you are, and what you are looking for. Its much better than an ornry looking letter. A lot of people are so skeptical (and almost afraid) when they call back from it.

I knew about the 'slydial' app where it allows you to skip the ring of someone's phone and just go straight to the voicemail. I started wondering if there was a way I could pre-record a message and then have a program put it on thousands of voicemails. After googling for a little bit I found a couple of services that can do this. I called them to find out more information. I told the guy I wanted to do around 3,000-5,000 voicemails a month. He said I could do their smallest package which would be 10,000 calls and just space it out over 2 or 3 months.

He said I would be able to upload the list and the voicemail then set up a 'job' within the account to have it send out around 1,000 a week and space them out. Its totally automated and I after setting it up I wouldn't even have to touch it. Since I'm used to saying what property I'm talking about in the voicemail so I would have to work pretty hard on wording it correctly but I'm sure after some serious thought I could figure something out.

It would cost $0.09/voicemail ($900 for all 10,000). Since from my experience voicemails are way better than yellow letters and yellow letters are much more work and cost about 6x more money I'm starting to think this sounds like a dream come true. Is there anything I should be on the look out for? I figured if this was really that amazing all of us would already be talking about it.

Here's the company - http://www.infolinkca.com/services/voice-casting.html

I looked at a few others but they would have really fake sounding voice automation.

Hey Brian Porter - I'm wondering if you might want to remove some of the RE investor "lingo" such as "fix and flip" and "rehab". You don't necessarily need to explain your plans - why would they care? Just explain what's important to them. "I'm am looking to purchase a house in your area. Are you interested in selling?...". Just a thought.

My other thought is, how are you coming up with your list? Are you targeting potential motivated sellers? I wouldn't want to waste much time talking to unmotivated sellers that might expect full price of their house.

You may want to consider an out-going message that is more specific to the motivated seller - "Need to sell your house fast? Does it need repairs that prevent you from selling it? NO PROBLEM! My name is Brian, and I buy houses as-is, for CASH...."
