With that being said I do believe I can get a response rate similar if not a little lower than a wholesaling campaign to "tired" owners.

I plan to accomplish this by staying consistent with my marketing and with a 500X6X6 direct mail campaign (500 leads, touch them six times, once every six weeks).

Was thinking of  offering  20% of profits of whatever campaign the investor funds.  6 months campaign.

I'm going to change the script my call service uses to answer incoming calls that I generate from my direct mail campaigns.  

Over the next couple of weeks I will be implementing a direct mail campaign to get some leads so any advice would be greatly appreciated. 

This is not a marketing campaign, but we use AppFolio Property Management Software and it is a life-saver.

our first marketing campaign covered approximately 2200 addresses over an 8 month period (6 mailings) and from that we completed one wholesale deal which paid for the next 2 years of marketing, one property under agreement to tear down and rebuild (pending city approval), and another property we plan to close on in about 2 weeks.lastly, if you really want to do a guru course, consider the folks at fortune builders. i did not take the course, nor do i plan on it, but in the various networking events, i've met some of the folks from that program and was way more impressed with that program versus the FF (we actually partnered with one person from that course).  

Can anyone recommend the best form of mailing campaign marketing?

I launched my first direct mail marketing campaign yesterday.

After having listened to some of the podcasts, some things that might work are:- Using listsource to create a targeted direct mail campaign- Using online ad words to generate leads- Driving for dollars- Lis-pendens lists (although these people get marketed to VERY heavily)- Put together a list of everyone you know (friends, family, coworkers, acquaintances, etc) and send out a letter to all stating your new career and ask for help in getting started (one of the podcasts describes this better in detail, forget which).In any case, I would say to keep educating yourself, and keep excited about your new career decision and life goals.
