@Bill Gulley not at all, I've actually have and read quite a few of them and has helped me do a few deals. It's just to a point where I need to expand and more direction.

Nice to see actual reviews. Ive been wanting to get a coach to help me scale and move my business forward. Does he help with subject-to's, lease-options, and other creative deal structures or is this stricly wholesaling? I hope to have something set up after my next deal so I could afford it :)

I was also looking at them and my first thought was to go on here to see any of the reviews. Im glad I came across this. Due to the lack of responses from both students and Joe/Peter themselves to help explain more on here.

I've got a couple of wholesale deals under my belt now while being a student of a system. This isnt coaching or mentoring just following a system. So Im wondering how much I can benefit from having a mentor or coach? I feel like I still have many questions all the time, and at a point where I feel like I have no direction or where I should be spending most of my time and prioritize certain tasks. What are your guys thoughts on mentors/coach's?

I thought about doing that as well, but have only done one mailer. Have you done mailers without the email and compared the responses? Do you use a generic email or a company type email like your company name?

After mailing out the initial wave of say yellow letters, how long and how often is it recommended to send a follow up mailer? What piece is recommended after the initial letter? I mailed to an inheritance list with about a 1% response and was wondering If I should even bother sending out follow up?

I have mailed to absantee owner, but forgot to target those with equity so I got many dead leads, oops. Recently I mailed to inheritance list with a small response. I'm curious what list do you guys like to mail to and any recommendations on list providers?
