Your first piece sent out is the control.Everything after that you test and track against the returns of the control.Sometimes people do not respond right away so with each mailers you would need a code for that batch to track.I do this with my commercial expired mailing campaign.I have spent roughly 40 dollars a month over a year and made 6 figures in commission off of it.I track the number of mailer sent monthly,the number of calls or contact received,number of appointments,number of listings,number of solds,and then track my time into each listing to get a return per hour on my time.When you break it down to a science you will really see what works and what needs tweaking.Once you have a system down with an excellent response you just grow the volume and the market.Hope it helps

If you're into pirates and colonial battles, it's a fascinating place. 5.

Wholesaling is not guru easy and it is not rocket science.

FYI don't learn to much this stuff is not rocket science. 

It's also got science behind it, and some famous people have used that method effectively; Teddy Roosevelt was afflicted with depression and used exercise to keep it at bay (and also cure his sickly nature as a kid). 

I also look forward to meeting the Bigger Pockets contributors as I learn more about this fascinating business.Sincerely,Sam [email protected]

As others have alluded to above, there is a bit more art and a bit less science in the STR vs CMF market.

Calculating ARV is more an art than a science.

For some reasons I’ve always been fascinated with real estate, so real estate/finance was my focus in college but really didn’t learn much there.

Lol...its fleas bro...not rocket science.
