Greetings all. As a start up business, I'd like to know if anyone uses the web to find property managment folks, and e-mail them your web site, or, solicit your services via the internet.
I'm sure there are great ways to find your prospects, however, whether you'd want to solicit them through their email box may be a bit futile, especially with all of the Spam filters these days. Heck, sometimes I find emails from guys from the bbs in my trash box and they weren't soliciting anything
Our plan this year is to, yes, find our prospects on the web, but solicit either in person or by mail, and within this initial contact, offer them a way to sign up for a newsletter. This way the customer has control of what they get (you know how the customer wants control )
Yep, I've done it and I'll tell you what, it's not easy to do at all! I've compiled a list of about 400 in my area but it took me a few days to pull it together. It does work fairly well though. I recently found a guy that has a program to do this and he puts out some really good results for finding property managers with email and snail mail addresses. If you like I would be happy to explain his program to you and put you in touch with him. It will save you lot's of time and give you better results than doing it on your own. Just give me a call.
Hey Ken, I got his information for you... Here you go!
I will also say that at first I thought this was a joke or scam. However, it's not. He's helped me out with something that I was working on and I've checked out quite a few of the contacts he gave me. There are a few bad ones, but 98% of them were good. When you talk to him tell him that I referred you..

Yep, he's for real.. I'm not sure where he found me at, he may have a way of searching bbs's for all I know. I'm not sure how he does his thing but it is pretty effective.
