By the time you finish reading this article, you will have learned... 8 critical components to increase your response, up to 20%-50%-70% or MORE! As you read every word of this report, you will be stunned, at the power of what REALLY will make people respond to your direct mail.

You may be VERY surprised at how much, using the "right words and phrasing" in a letter, will automatically and DRAMATICALLY INCREASE your response rate. The shocking truth about why people won't respond to direct mail, is because of the "missing ingredients".. just like leaving out the eggs in a cake mix. Well, I'm not a cook, but my wife tells me, "that just doesn't work!" You know what I mean, don't you?

Direct Mail Marketing Can Be Astonishingly Effective..

Little by little you'll begin to see that prospects will respond better to mail that "addresses them directly," and makes a reference to something, showing them that you understand their needs. And as you absorb this information, you'll see how easy it is to get motivated sellers to call you, almost begging you for your help.

"Imagine.. It's morning, the phone's ringing off the hook.. it's another motivated seller hoping you can buy their house from them.. for pennies on the dollar." You are ready for success, aren't you? Well, if you're not... I'll get you ready!

How Do You Write a Good Direct Mail Piece?

Wouldn't it be amazing if you knew EXACTLY what to write to a potential seller, to get them to call you, without hesitating one second? Now, I would like to help you experience what it feels like.. To KNOW, you've sent the most powerful letters possible to that potential seller.

"Imagine for a moment, that it's a month from today.. the phone's still ringing all the time and your business is starting to profit like you always dreamed it would.

FACT! A letter is the most common form of direct mail, but, writing a powerful and highly effective letter isn't that easy.. UNLESS, YOU KNOW THE SECRETS. That's why big businesses hire marketing professionals to create their mailings. Some pay thousands of dollars because they know, it will MAKE THEM THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS.

Imagine what you could do if you had the SAME knowledge as the "big boys?"... writing the most powerful and incredible direct mail marketing letters possible?

Do you want that same knowledge? I'll tell you how you can have the same advantage as they do.

First, decide what problem your prospect faces. Begin the letter with a question or statement that directly addresses the most pressing issue you can think of. Grabbing the reader's attention greatly increases your letter's chances of escaping the wastebasket. Once you have their attention, tell them how you can solve their problem with your service.

Use headlines that address the prospect's problems throughout the letter to keep their attention. Address only their most urgent concerns with headlines. Think in terms of their greatest fears, concerns, emotions and goals.

A good direct mail letter engages the reader's interest in the "benefits of your service," long enough to read your call to action. That should be at the end of your letter and it can take many forms. Remember your goal is to generate interest and get them to answer your "call to action."

Most people get the general idea, but forget the "critical components" along the way.

Here's what you MUST have in a great direct mail campaign.


The 8 Critical Components That Must Be Part Of Every Successful Direct Mail Marketing Campaign!

#1
You must use a quality, current, and highly targeted list...

Maybe the biggest mistake that you can make is to use a mailing list that doesn't represent your target audience. Too many people send out mailings, get no response, and wonder why. Make sure that your list is current and targeted to meet your needs.
#2
Clean, legible, well crafted copy...

It's NOT the amount of words that really matter; they need to be the "right words." Of course, the letter copy needs to be long enough to convey the entire message, but the right words are what will get the response you're looking for. Highlight and explain the actual benefits of your product or service. Take the time to do several re-writes until the copy will grab the reader's attention.
#3

Grab the readers attention with a headline...

One of the reasons we all toss direct mail out so quickly is because it doesn't interest us at all. Don't use boring headlines and gimmicks. Use a headline that catches someone's eye without insulting their intelligence.

You only have a few seconds to grab their interest, so you need to really think about what impact your headline will have. Ask yourself the question.. Would it interest me?

#4

Personalize your letters ...

Leave out the hype and commercial sounding wording. Personalize the letter as if you were writing to a friend. Your copy/letter should not sound like a car commercial. Don't use words like people, folks, or any other words that indicate the "masses." Remember, write in way that sounds like you're talking to a friend.

#5
A clear concise call to action...

It seems simple enough, BUT.. If you don't tell the reader what you want them to do, it defeats the point of sending the direct mail letter. Do you want them to call you? Buy something? Fill out the form at the bottom of the letter? Make it clear what they should do or they will not respond.
#6

Proof read the copy...

You may have seen great direct marketing pieces that were missing "key information" like phone numbers, addresses, or other key information. Missing those key pieces of information just defeated the purpose of the mailing. Proof reading is a very important aspect of all of your marketing campaigns. Misspelled words look very unprofessional!

If you feel that you lack in those skills, hire someone to proof your copy. Or ask someone who has a way with words to take a look at your text.

#7

Send multiple mailings to the same list..

Don't waste your money on postage if you're not going to send at least 3-5 mailings to the same list. FACT: the direct mail marketing industry says that 7 mailings to the same list will produce the best results.

By contacting your prospects multiple times, you build credibility with them, and you stay on their minds.

Think of the first mailing you send as an "introduction"... and then each following mailing establishes your credibility a little further, builds on your message, and increases your chances of getting the reader to take action. It's like going up the stairs in a house.. "you don't get to the second floor till you climb all the steps."

#8

Test, and continue testing to achieve the best possible response..

Too many people find out the hard way that their direct mail piece is not effective. Make it your common practice to test out anything you plan to use. See if it makes an impact. Does it work? How well?

What If You Could Have A "Powerful" And "Highly Effective" Direct Mail Letter Campaign...

That Was Pre-Written For You
?

Would you pay $1497 for a series of letters that could jam your pipeline with profitable leads from motivated sellers, just begging to give you their houses? Would a system that comes with an import utility, allowing you to AUTOMATICALLY upload your letter system into software to market and manage your prospects be worth it? A system where you could PERSONALIZE EVERY DETAIL of the letter to thousands of motivated sellers, at the click of a button?

You're intelligent enough to know...

It would be worth every penny if it did.. wouldn't it?

If I offered you an entire letter template and mailing campaign system that would guarantee you get the highest possible response rates, would that be a GOOD deal? YOU BET IT WOULD! But, that's too much money out of your pocket..

I'm Angry! I'm tired of spending ridiculous big sums of money
for materials that just DON'T work... and I don't think you should have to either! So I decided to break the mold and offer my letter templates to you, at a price that you don't even have to think about. I spent thousands of dollars trying to find something that worked, only to be ripped off again and again. How many times have you spent money on something that didn't have a fraction of the value you paid for? It doesn't seem fair and you've probably experienced what I'm talking about, haven't you?

Why spend your money on a system that "can't cross the finish line" or only works after you've spent hundreds of dollars? “Let’s say it takes you 1 hour to create each letter (conservatively)... It would take you a total of 30 hours to create 30 templates and your time is worth at least, $20-$30 or MORE… That's $600 OR MORE! plus, then, they still may not be as effective as my "powerful proven templates”.

Are you fed up paying for marketing materials, only to be disappointed? I've wasted plenty of money myself.

I've been the using pre-foreclosure letter series...
I am currently negotiating 13 short sales...

Steve, thanks so much for taking the time to develop the REIM Letter Series. I've been the using pre-foreclosure letter series, and have had a good response rate. In fact, many of the prospects that contact me say that of the dozens of letters and mailings that they received, mine seemed the most personable and trustworthy.

That is exactly what I had hoped for. Another thing that was unexpected, is that the letters drew a couple of landlords that had multiple properties to get rid of quickly. As a result of those two calls alone, I am currently negotiating 13 short sales. And, to top it off, it was easy to import your letters into the Real Prospect software and personalize them as needed.
