For example: you could mail 1000 Yellow Letters, 1000 small text postcards, and 1000 large text postcards for about $1700.

Someone obviously is taking care of his affairs.Send a postcard and see if it comes back or send a letter certified return receipt in ref to the home.

Now here is something that most people dont do.I have 5 postcards that my local printer made for me, about 3 cents each.

The good side is I often get offered better deals than I would if they were responding to a post card relationship.

Over the past 2 years I've contacted about 10k owner by direct mail, dropping off post cards, 1,000 address mailing lists, direct yellow letters and through all the effort it hasn't transpired to much. 

I am mailing a yellow letter, post card, post card to start.

First a yellow letter, then a post card, then a flyer, then what?  

I generally use yellow letter direct marketing campaigns but your area might take postcards a lot better.

A LOT of direct mail that includes yellow letters and postcards targeting out of state absentee owners, probate, divorce. 3.

I dont think its possible to guarantee every mailer gets a reslonse but these are notes I took from doing a little research10 essential elements to a successful postcard/letter Clear headlineSupporting graphic/relevant imagesColor that popsIntriguing sub-headings on the back that lead into benefitsBenefits!
