Is this in Austin? What part of town?

This was a great webinar! Glad I could be a small part of it

@John Blackman congrats again. I was there to see you quit your day job and it was awesome, but it's good to read the detailed story of how you got there. 

I'm glad to be working with / learning from you and @Bryan Hancock    In our short time working together, the info I've learned has been invaluable. I have no doubt I will have a similar story soon.  Thanks for the willingness to share your knowledge guys!

We are hosting a special WIN (Wealth Investment Network) meeting on May 29th. As you may know, a huge crowfunding conference is coming to Austin at the end of this month. To coincide with this, our group managed to secure two amazing speakers for an exclusive meeting with our group.

See you there!

When marketing to sellers through direct mail, I've found that sellers usually respond differently based on the amount of marketing they have received.

Some lists are heavily marketed to because they are popular on training courses or are the recommended lists for investors from the list providers.

Although we still pull deals out of the heavily marketed lists, we love to find lists that people are not currently marketing to. This will be very different in each market, but the way to know you've picked a lightly marketed-to list that others are not focusing on, lies in this response a seller:

"How'd you get my info?"

Though this may be a curious person not looking to sell, this information is very valuable.

It says that:

• The seller (more importantly the list) is not used to getting marketed this way
• The entire list may be virtually untouched by direct investor marketing and it may be a gold mine for leads

Some people view that question as a negative because people who respond just want to know if you are spying on them through their camera phone and rarely want to sell. I love it because it tells me that we are about to hit the jackpot.

Whether you are using yellow letters or postcards to find your wholesale or fix and flip deals, look for this question and see it as a HUGE positive.
