Oak strip with a thick layer of oil-based polyurethane stands up to heavy children's traffic, 100-pound dogs, hefty old crossdressers who love their stiletto heels and autoerotic asphyxiation off the closet rod, you name it.

The sheer majority of your mailers go to undeliverable addresses (and you need to skip trace them) and/or they throw your mailers away just like I don't bother reading domino's pizza span mailers telling me that if I get a large pizza I get 5 pounds of anchovies for free.Secondly, just like texts and calling, people also get a TON of mailers sent to them, so again DMM does NOT stand you out.That said, ALL the methods shown here are bad.Do you all understand how many phone calls I get from people that say "Hey I got your card in the mail, how doe sit work?".

@Walt Alexander - start door knocking, then skip trace and pound the phones.Finding deals is the simplest most difficult thing you'll ever do.Note: 100 addressed might give you enough contacts to find a deal - but probably not.

@Marilin Matos you’re welcome to ask for any of the above stuff or all of it if you want.The seller will likely tell you to “pound sand”, in a polite manner.

We charge $25 for a cat or dog under 40 pounds.

Also in the submarkets I play in, stuff sells at a given price per pound.  

I have found the cash flow from laundromats to far outperform that of most real estate investments pound for pound, especially in your area. 25-35% unleveraged is pretty common.

If you are trying to buy your own deals, it is pounding the pavement with brokers and owners. 

Clothing stores are getting pounded but that has been the case for about a decade now.

So without getting too political, thank you Warren Buffett, thank you Ray Dalio, but you both and any other billionaire telling me how to live my life, can go pound sand.
