Yellow letter campaign... Test results

Yellow letter campaign... Test results

I recently ran a very small "yellow letter" campaign to test response rates & see if I wanted to scale up this particular campaign. I ended up getting about 11% response which was better than expected.

Also out of that campaign I got 1 deal, which is a cash-flowing triplex in Phoenix, for $28K.
It comps on total view for $58,200. Think Im just wholesale this one to a cash buyer instead of holding it myself because it needs probably about 5-7k in repair that I really don't feel like doing.

Pm Me if interested B4 it goes out to my email blast list on Monday morning.

Anyways back to the topic that I wanted to talk about... This was one of the first tests Ive done with a yellow letter going to expired listings here in phoenix. It went well & I will definitely scale this one up... It did seem like a lot of people who responded though had zero or just barely there equity so they really couldn't negotiate on their sell price. Some were also expired short sale listings which I just had to outsource to another investor who works on those exclusively... Not so bad because you can always sell those good short sale leads to someone like that & recover a good part of your marketing budget.

In closing tell me about your campaigns "yellow letter" or not, whats working in your area.

11% ?

How many did you send out, and how many responses did you get? I have a few I can send out, but haven't done them yet.
