I realize lots of factors affect the success of anyones marketing efforts, but I sure hate to start dropping thousands a month in yellow letters and postcards only to find that its not near enough.

San Diego is a competitive market- it makes me wonder how to reach out to homeowners that need to sell but don't have a stack of yellow letters and postcards to call from (although I wonder if they call around or just go with the first one).

I really don't want to sit and fold envelopes so I think I will just stick to postcards when doing Direct mail… Also does anyone else have the fear of losing money and how is it stopped you from growing in this business?

I am wondering if there is a way to have each generic postcard addressed to each homeowner by their first name.

"yellow letters", postcards, etc) to placing bandit signs.

Took a phone call today that I got from a postcard that I sent out.

Can you tell us what kind of mail piece you sent out (yellow letter/postcard/etc.).

I bought 500 leads for tax delinquent owners from listsource.com and used yellowletters to mail 200 postcards for about 125$ I think it was.

What type of mail piece did you use, postcard or letter?

First I've been in RE since 2005 and have ignored all those letters and post cards on my rentals and other property until recently.
