Think about adding business cards to each one of your envelopes with your mission statement or what your company/ you actually does on the back of it.Hope this helps, its the strategy I'm taking.

Start sending post cards, cold calling, yellow letters, put signs up in yards.   

Im looking to tap into equity to start flipping houses and eventually get more rental properties after I pay off my credit card debt to lower my debt to income ratio, any advice would be appreciated!

I would get a gift card every now and then as a thank you, but never asked for anything.

They buy certificates online after a 30-minute "session" and a swipe of the credit card.

Also, you can ask your bank about a deposit only account/atm card.

Get a couple of credit cards and begin to build your credit history.
