Several members showed interest in learning more about using direct mail. More specifically, using unique strategies that demand a person's attention and will get them to open up your direct mail piece.

Below are videos I made over the weekend. I show you just about everything I know about using direct mail that gets attention and get's potential prospects opening up your mail and listening to what you have to say.

Feel free to ask any questions. But, please do so only after watching the videos. Again, I cover just about everything.

Do to the length, I had to break them up into parts to host on YouTube. If you would like to watch it as just one video, I have it hosted on my site. Click here to watch the content as one single video.

Also, at the end I tell you were you can pick a copy of the content in a pdf file. This way you can refer to that in the future instead of having to watch the videos again.

Finally, my apologies for my "voice that wasn't made for radio". These are my first videos I've ever made. So I'm still getting used to just sitting there talking into a microphone as I stare at a screen.

Enjoy!

  • Hi vagabond,

    I just send you a PM with some inquiries on direct mailing.
    Would love to hear from you soon.
    Thank you.
  • Hey vega, the videos you posted are gold, I hope everyone realizes this! I liked the squirrel letter the most because it sucks you right into the copy. It gets you curious and throws you down the page.

    Anyway, thanks again

    • Thanks! Yes, I like the J. Squirrell one too! It's so different.

      Thread isn't as popular as I thought it was going to be. Which is a shame, some great nuggets in the videos, as you found out.

      Glad you enjoyed them.
  • Thanks Vagabond. Very generous and useful information you've shared here. Thanks for sharing.

    Bought the PDF, this is great value and I'm looking forward to your next WSO.

    All the best,

    Jason

    • Thank you Jason. Glad I could help. I appreciate your business.

      And look tomorrow night for that other thing you mentioned.
  • Vagabond 007- I intend on checking out your vids. I recently had my hard dricce crash and I lost yrs worth of notes, research, docs, images, everything. I got lazy backing things up and I got burned.

    I just got another hard drive installed a week ago so I'm starting from zero again. I'm missing some drivers I'm told so I'm not able to watch any video or hear any sound for some reason or another till my geek guy buddy gets around to taking care of that for me - hopefully soon when his workload lightens up.

    I'm going to bookmark this page and come back when I'm able to view your mind-melting marketing ideas. So count me in as one of your fans even though your not the hot Victoria Secret model babe I thought you were y'day. :-)

  • Man -I am in the middle of watching these and they are golden!

  • Makes me remember of the past strategies that have ever been legendary effective as well (e.g. Dan Kennedy's, Jay Abraham's). What you teach in these videos are just informative. Thanks a lot for bringing up these ideas again as well.

    I know from a fact a person who have modeled off these people and he's a friend of mine. He's David Jenyns and he started his career from long form sales copies and direct mails too.

    Cheers!
  • Great Videos Vagabond. Thanks for adding so much value to this forum!
  • You're welcome Charles.

    Glad you enjoyed them.
  • Hey Vagabond 007,
    Thanks for the tips.

    I've got a good one to add...

    I've used the cardboard center of Toilet Paper Rolls! Yes, TP rolls... OR I've cut and used the center of wrapping paper rolls (they look the same).

    Flatten it down, add your note and tape it shut.
    Use an address label for the address and a CTA with arrow to open.

    I usually start my note with something like, "Does Your Marketing Stink?" or "Crappy Marketing isn't OK!"

    my 2c.
  • Good presentation.
