Thanks,

How much… - Posted by Buju

Posted by Buju on August 31, 2002 at 20:19:24:

Are you guys getting for the testimonial. I have the course and admit the course is great. It comes with alot of material. But the software has ALOT of room for improvement. Too many of the processes are manual. Such as when creating your database you must MANUALLY enter all the contact information one by one. No list import utility? Then once you’ve entered all that you must then MANUALLY fold, stuff, lick, stamp and repeat. Imagine having a list of several hundred names/addresses on a potential list? I am in no way saying anything negative on the goal in mind which is direct marketing at your fingertips. But there is definately room for improvement in the software in terms of functionality. Scott Rister really put a good course together… hopefully once he gets better software he’ll at least cut us a great deal on the upgrade!

Its what I use for all my letters that go out. Plus his book covers in great detail how to get every marketing concept up and running. He even tells you where to put your bandit signs (lol). Great Course.!!!

I have it. Lots of great information including some ideas I’ve never seen posted on any of the REI sites. Tons and tons of form letters for every situation you can think of. If you want a course specific to real estate marketing, I think Scott’s is excellent.

Buju,

I appreciate your candid post. I do have one question though. Do you know of a program out there that will “fold, stuff, lick, stamp and repeat.” :)-(Smile) If so, please let me know. I’m curious as to what a machine like that would cost.

Thanks again for your post! I just ordered the course, and the importing feature (or lack thereof) is a major bummer. I was really looking forward to being able to import from the foreclosure lists.

Thanks,
Greg

MRG,
Is there a way to import address databases into the program (like the foreclosure lists), or do you have to manually type in the names and addresses, etc?

I just ordered the course. It hasn’t arrived just yet.

Thanks,
Greg

How has your response rate been? Is it true that the reponse rate increases after the 2nd and 3rd mailing? Who does he suggest to mail your letters to?

Open up the program folder on your C drive. You will see a MS Access file that has all of the contacts. Just open the category that you want and use the Access import feature.

I must be brain dead. I do see an access folder but it does not give me the opportunity to open any files. There is nothing when I open the access file. I looked under the c drive.

Any thoughts?
