Doing that has worked very well for me.As a side note, I send out postcards to potential motivated sellers that has both my web site and my phone number on it.

You may want to consider hang tags or those plastic bags that you can hang on a door knob to put your flyer in.If you are mailing, then post cards will be cheaper to mail than flyers.Also, some of the local ad-style newspapers offer inserts that they will deliver with their paper.

Please note that methods like Direct Mail, post cards and doorknocking are ways to contact owners of leads you generate.

I moved from Bossier City, LA to Great Falls, MT and couldn't find, as many or, as good of deals off the MLS.So I decided to try a Direct Mail campaign, Yellow post cards from yellowletters.com.

Ok so I've read some articles that helped me narrow it down to direct mailing to Pre-Foreclosures, which brings up another question: When direct mailing to people in that situation, do you guys find it better to send a letter rather then a post card?

I'm pretty new to this myself but I've tried a few different types of mailers and messages.First I used a nice looking, full color postcard that listed several reasons why a person may be motivated to sell their house to me, quickly, for cash.

I'm sending probate postcards and letters out.

I have moved on from this seller, but will send him a "nice" postcard, so that if he does become motivated in the future, maybe he will think about the me.

I have found some good sub2 deals by mailing postcards to expired MLS listings.

For the rest of February, I have been sending letter and postcards to Probates, Pre-foreclosure with equity, and owner absentee in and out of state.
