You may have the right idea with building a personal residence (easier financing) as a way to test the waters.

I suggest you test the waters, contribute in the forums, exposure never hurts.

Another thing I'll do is flush every toilet twice; I had one home where the water was off because of a plumbing issue but someone had put water in the bowl and tank so it'd flush if you tested it once.Ultimately those are all pretty surface-level tests, though.

I already have some good green screen photos to use on my marketing materials like you also mentioned, looks like I’m on the right track so far.As far as the 12 touches being over kill, I hope this is the case but I think I will try your strategy by doubling my list to 5000 and mailing to one half one month and then the other half the following month like you are recommending and if I don’t see the results I would like I market test the other strategy.
