Hmm you sound sick of yellow letters
Why the hate if you`ve not ever used them?
QUOTE (wgraham @ Feb 22 2010, 03:02 PM) I question my sanity posting on another one of these "yellow letter" threads but here it goes.....
I have sent out zero yellow letters! But I have taken out a very effective Kijiji ad
View Here
I have paid about $10 to have this ad stay on top of the stack. I have let is slide lately as I am not in buying mode but I am still getting great calls. Handed a lead off to another REIN member today for his birthday.
I purhased my last investment property with that ad
Veiw Here, have secured a JV partner and currently have my Property Manager filling it as we speak. Base hit....next.....
This isn`t that hard folks.
Do you look at any flyers that come in the mail? Ron`s system may have worked back in the day but the world is online now.....blasting out flyers in my opinion is a waste of money and more importantly.....time!!
Pay $20 dollars to put up a good ad online. Ask for exactly what you want and let the phone ring once a day. Simple, measurable, cost effective and wastes as little time as possible. Don`t put up a "we buy homes" because I call B.S. You don`t buy homes. You might by town homes under 150k in such and such a neighborhood with a large driveway and pink siding that is close to schools but you don`t buy homes and we all know it! So quit wasting your time and everyone else`s and ask for what it is that you want.
The same things goes for the yellow letters and blasting them out to entire cities. Drive through a neighbourhood find the house you want to buy and knock on the door! Certainly better then some flyer blast.
That is my rant for the day!
