Once in a while I get one of those calls but I am not defensive and in my first attempt to answer I gave complete scripts on how to convert even these calls.

Furthermore he said it was wrong be because I am providing no service to he other 4995 people who receive my letters( he said a Walmart, pizza, lawn care mailer is at least a viable service)I explained that direct marketing is a widely accepted method to find deals and is taught online, in Reia meetings, in books investor conferences and forums.He felt it sounds like a scam to mail thousands of property owners to find one person and take advantage of their bad situation and it seems predatory.He even said that if I have someone cash for their home In lieu of a pending tax saleWhere they would lose the home anyway that I'm still the bad guy as they would have had better options than just giving their property away for pennies.Have anyone ever heard of such a negative view on direct mail?

But, when you get into large ticket items, the receiver becomes much more aware of sales tactics and they become resistant even defensive throwing up their guard.

Tell your defense attorney, but your RE attorney doesn't really need to know either..... 

They have conference calls with national tenant a few times a month and every few months a rep from the national tenant company might tour an area going over potential sites.If they like a site then the committee might go see it first.

After the speakers at the conference did their subject-to presentation, I attempted to meet with them outside and ask a couple of questions about some of the things they do.

The gun range if you are renting doesn't want cheap crap ammo running through their guns and messing them up.This is why they require you buy their ammo.You can always try to see which ammo they require and buy that brand before you go in.The smaller ammo is cheaper BUT will also NOT stop an attacker unless you hit vital points whereas a larger caliber bullet will do more damage even if you don't have a direct hit to a vital target.So there are tradeoffs.If you don't practice with a gun and use it frequently it is a waste of time buying one.Most avenues you aren't allowed to carry so need to know how to use your body for defense FIRST before going to external weapons.I would get him some knife training as well as that is more prevelant than guns.

It's like the D.A. vs the defense attorney: the defense tries to poke holes in the prosecutor's theories and if that can be done virtually at all, then the case doesn't have enough merit to send someone to jail.

The presenter kept on talking about how one would learn more during the three day conference.
