Word to mouth campaigns also works well.

Public sentiment should drive the campaign a long way.Might be able to even get GRANT money - - anyone with grant experience???

Have a full time 9 to 5, so have not taken the time to start a marketing campaign to find off market opportunities as such, all of my activity has been focused on MLS.

I recently started my first Direct Marketing Campaign.

It came out at a perfect time for me before I launched my absentee owner mailing campaign recently.http://www.biggerpockets.com/renewsblog/2014/03/18/marketing-one-size-doesnt-fit/

I am getting ready to start my 2nd 6-month campaign with him this week. 

Anyone out the still successfully running a bandit sign campaign or is it all about yellow letters now?

I’m looking into doing my first direct mail campaign and I want to be able to close fast and while putting the least out of pocket.

This being said, I decided to start my first direct mailing campaign and continuously update it for everyone who may be able to use this as a resource or even offer me advice on what to change.Mailing Campaign #1:Target Audience: Owned >10 years, Absentee, >40% Equity, SFR/Small MFR, No swimming poolsTotal Addresses on list for desired area: ~300Data Collected: ListSource.comCost of Materials:100 Stamps x 3: $160Mini Legal Pads: $10100 Postage Stamps x 3: $105Envelopes: $50Postcards: $45ListSource Data: $65Total: $435This total will be larger in the end, because every address I send to will get multiple pieces, but for now I wanted to share what setting up might look like.
