Michele that is beautiful and classy-looking.

Mike - the modern postcard site's highest income bracket was 150k.

I think I'd like to just buy a list - and the cards - but mail them myself. I would get all returns if the addresses arent right and I could control how much I spent each week say.

I tried to this once with a flyer in the last small town I lived in. I knew most of the people there so I figured it would work. I used the phone book for addresses. I'd say 50% came back because of rural addresses that the post office didnt deliver to - and changed addresses etc. I only sent out maybe 50? and didn't get any responses - although I might have had some visitors at the old studio because of it.
