Hi All,

I am starting to mail postcards to expireds and I am looking for some great ideas... I have seen a few but am open to new suggestions... links appreciated.

Also, I am wondering, let's say the minimum bulk mail quanity is 200 postcards and the rate is 22c. Whereas standard rate is 29c.

If it takes my market area 3 days to accumulate 200 expireds will it be dramatically less effective if I mail them out at the bulk mail rate every 3 days rather than paying the first class rate? I figure I will save about $140 month if I go bulk mail route, but if I lose 1 listing I could have had and sold per year it would have been better just to mailed them the at first class the first day everyday... thoughts?

Do a 3% commission for the first 3 months if you list and sell. When we opened we run that promotion and got 30 listings in the first 60 days

You mean I list it at a normal rate, but if I am able to do both sides of the transaction in the first 60 days I refund the buyer comp? I'm not sure if my broker would allow this..

I really like the idea of advertising a reduced rate if I bring handle both sides....
