@Jeremy Pace

Thanks for the reply, my target audience is Absentee Owners with 81%-100% equity and I mail out to the whole city. (but with a budget of only 100 i can only buy a list of 400 names)

So I'm assuming in increasing my amount of mailings, I would be able to increase the number of offers that I would be able to make per month.

So I've been wholesaling for nearly a year doing monthly campaigns of 400 (do to budget) and now I'm finally about to close on a deal that can increase my budget and therefore increase my mailings and so forth.

My question to those that are experienced

Would any of you increase your mailings from 400 per month to 4000 per month?

If not why and if so why?

Thank you in advance.
