Since we mail thousands of postcards each month and talk with hundreds of sellers, we have something they can use in return for what I want.

That's what posters and postcards are for.

Yellow Letters, Mail, Postcards?

For the most part you have to send out hundreds of letters/post cards to even get a bite though.

Also for the record, I personally prefer post cards.

So far it looks as if the best price I can come up with for mailing one post card to my entire list is about $475, which comes out to about $.47 a post card.

Start a letter or postcard mailing program for your target areas.

I want to increase the number of calls I get from my direct mail postcards.  

Out of thousands of mailers, dropping off letters on doors ,yellow letters, business cards, post cards, EDDMs, and occasional door knocks [i am kinda a shy person so this is only if I'm in the mood or feeling esp driven ;-)]) I just haven't had much success at direct marketing.
