And I probably should've mentioned in the original post that I have been actively engaged in lead acquisition for about 4 months now with no luck so far from my yellow letters and Adwords campaign.

I wanted to receive some opinions if it is worth investing into marketing campaigns to find motivated sellers that are not listed on the MLS?

I'm about to start a 3500 mailer campaign.

I have websites, direct mail campaigns and a network of agents, wholesalers and so forth.

I am wanting to learn and build a foundation in wholesaling 1) To earn extra cash to use towards investing 2) Be able to cherry pick my own deals for flipping/ rentalI have read several blogs/ listened to podcasts/ and decided I need to take action and just START.I have different strategies in place, and don't mind spending some money in successful marketing campaigns/ strategies but prior to kicking off I'd like to get BP members feedback on what they've experienced to have better results.What strategy has the best conversion rate into a successful acquisition?

With direct mail you should be prepared to send a campaign for the maximum response.

yep, added that negative to my campaigns today

I'm in the beginning stages of building my web presence but am using it as a supplement to a mailing campaign.

So I'm planning to start a marketing campaign with my partner in exactly a month's time.
