    Direct Mail Marketing for Mortgage Leads
    Emails have gotten a lot of attention over the past several years and have been credited as being an effective, low cost way of reaching new customers. Unfortunately, the growth of spam emails has effectively crowded out legitimate sales pitches. That is why a mass mailing campaign through the post office is still an effective and fairly inexpensive way to help you generate mortgage leads. Here are a few tips to keep in mind as you put together your direct mail campaign:1. Mail on a regular schedule The key to mailing for mortgage leads is consistency – mail on a regular schedule… weekly, bi-weekly or monthly. Check with the post office to see how to qualify for bulk mail rates.2. Keep the letter personal Personalized letters achieve better results than a standard “form” letter. No, you can’t come up with hundreds of different letters for hundreds of separate clients, but you can write in such a way that leaves out the overt business style while emphasizing a personal touch. Use a trusted mail-merge program to include the person’s name, address and payment examples in the letter.3
    From our deconstruction of hundreds of Hollywood blockbusters at www.managing-creativity.com/

    The Hero's Journey is the template upon which the vast majority of successful stories and Hollywood blockbusters are based upon. In fact, ALL of the Hollywood movies we have deconstructed are based on this template.

    Understanding this template is a priority for story or screenwriters.

    The Hero's Journey:

    a) Attempts to tap into unconscious expectations the audience has regarding what a story is and how it should be told.

    b) Gives the writer more structural elements than simply three or four acts, plot points, mid point and so on.

    c) Interpreted metaphorically, laterally and symbolically, allows an infinite number of varied stories to be created.

    Business is a game. That game begins with getting more attention than your competition to get the inside lane on sales and ultimately profits.

    Miami Housing Market: Get the Price You Ask For
    When buyers gain more leverage in the Miami housing market, sellers must think out of the box to attract buyers to their homes, then to fixate on their asking price. This article discusses 8 possible ways for Miami housing market sellers to get a home sold at least a little closer than what you might have gotten otherwise, if not exactly at your asking price.First is allocating a decorating allowance. If your d?cor looks quite old and out of trend, then allot some cash for upgrades, new carpet and a paint job. With good bidding on the job, you may be able to keep your price, while giving the buyer his or her wants. You can even make some money on the backside by not dropping your asking price. Buyers in the Miami housing market would typically love $20,000 to spend the way they want on decorating.Second is to consider your mortgage payments for your next move. Since you as a seller would also be moving into a new house after the current one has been sold, it is advisable to consider mortgage payments. On a $300,000 mortgage at 6 percent interest, the principal and interest payment is $1,798

    Choosing The Right Mortgage For You
    This article will help you understand the differences between a variety of mortgage options. There are many different mortgage products offered by the various lending institutions in Canada, so you may not know what features to look for.As you'll see, each type of mortgage has slightly different features which appeal to a variety of different preferences. For example, some home buyers take comfort in knowing that the amount of their mortgage payments will be the same throughout the entire term of their mortgage. Other home buyers may be willing to accept some fluctuation in the amount of their mortgage payments in exchange for the potential long-term savings or the change to pay off their mortgage faster.The right mortgage for you in the one that best matches your overall comfort level and fits with your income and lifestyle.Conventional or High RatioA conventional mortgage is a loan for no more than 75% of the appraised value or purchase price of the property, whichever is less.
