Mortgage Marketing Tips: #27
How To Supercharge Your Mortgage Business
By Using Dirt Cheap Postcards... (Part 1)
One of the most overlooked and quite possibly most profitable tools you
can add to your mortgage marketing efforts, is the lowly postcard.
There are so many reasons postcards work great.
* They`re cheap to send out.
* They`re quick to write.
* They`re fast and easy to mail out.
* Finally, they get read!
Why do postcards work?
* Postcards give your offer or message instant visibility in the mailbox.
* You`re not fighting with 200 other mortgage ads in the newspaper or on
the television.
* With a postcard you can single out your targeted recipient and address
only them.
Postcards are probably the easiest and quickest way to start using direct
mail to build your
mortgage business. For an investment of about 37 cents (for an oversize
postcard) you can attract qualified prospective prospect/clients and you
can keep in contact with current prospect/clients to build a stronger
bond.

Attracting New Mortgage Clients
Your mailing list is essential to your success. You cannot just pick
a random resident list of
nearby Zip codes to your office. What you need to do is consider who your
ideal mortgage
prospect/client would be and then find a way to target your message
directly to them.
Look in your prospect/client file for where your prospects/clients come
from. Then ask yourself, is this the type of client I want to deal with,
is this the size loans I want to do and what area do I want new clients to
come from?
Then determine what income level, education, age, etc. your best
prospect/clients have in common.
You can get lists of prospects with certain demographic and geographic
characteristics that
match your ideal prospect/client profile. Then you would send them out a
postcard offering them a free report, free video, free tape or some other
way for them to identify themselves as interested prospects.
You can`t expect your postcard to do more than it is intended for. The
purpose is to get people to raise their hands and say, `Yes, I`m
interested.`
Don`t necessarily expect them to call and schedule an appointment from
this postcard or even to come in for a free consultation. This is too much
of a threat for most prospects.
That`s why you`ve got to walk them through your process with little
baby-steps, like requesting a free report about a topic or loan product of
interest.
