Hi Tim:
Congratulations on taking action and writing this letter. You are way ahead of others that think about it and think about it and never get anything done.

I’m Taryn, a Realtor, and I’ve joined so that I can write great copy for sales letters, emails, and video marketing. I’m frustrated with all the junk I’m given from Real Estate Coaches that are the same old junk. Looking forward to learning and putting it into action for success!

Here is an early self-defense letter, which struck a major nerve in the customer base for this market. It's run every year for the last decade in the major magazines and mailed even more often to hotlists. The appeal is simple and to the point: This is hard-core...
