HelloI was listening to a Cody Sperber video the other day and he mentioned that typical marketing methods wholesalers use are outdated ( bandit signs, yellow letters etc.).He said that potential sellers see multiple bandit signs, MAY receive sever letters or postcards from different wholesalers, and listsource and others of the like are selling the same lists to different wholesalers.Do you think these methods are still working today?
