From Buyer-Focused to Balanced Business Growth
Eric and his wife wanted to increase their seller leads while maintaining their steady flow of buyers. By committing to consistent monthly postcard mailings, they successfully shifted their business model, generating at least 12–15 new listings directly from their Wise Pelican mailings each year.
A Proven, Scalable Marketing Strategy
After testing different marketing approaches, Eric found that direct mail was the most reliable way to generate seller leads. By sending postcards every month, the response rate became so predictable that they now estimate a 1-to-1 postcard-to-listing ratio—a game-changer for their business.
