    It works. Low success rate but even 1 snag a year is a great result imo. My last deal i secured was a cold calling strategy style find.

    Because they did not have emails then? No one reads letters nowadays :)

    I think hand written letters come off as more personal, genuine and real to the demographic that have more of an emotional/ nostalgic connection to it - the over 60s. Just my opinion.

    I've seen fake handwritten mass produced letters from agents too.

    Hehe.
    I've thought about it before, but it would be overkill for me.

    I know what you mean mate. I know a girl who literally makes thousands of phone calls a year. That's overkill for me too.
