2. The BEST mailing list you can get get is one that you have compiled yourself from your own ads. The NEXT best mailing list is one that you buy (or rent) from a dealer who runs ads similar to the ads that you would run to attract the same types of customers. Contact any dealer that you find that is advertising the same type of product or service and see if you can work out a deal to use this list once he has processed it. Be sure to make it clear that you want names that are under 90 days old.
If you are considering buying mailing lists, two vital reports you should read are "10 Good Reasons For Not Buying Mailing Lists." and "How To Protect Yourself From Mailing List Rip-offs".. Both reports are available for only $3 from: Fun Mates Press - Dept MR-ML/5-5, Box 6466, San Francisco, CA 94101. ******
3. The BEST pulling circulars are the ones you design yourself.. If you have access to a decent typewriter and some "press-on" type, you can do a good job of putting together an effective ad or circular. Most stationery and artists supply stores carry large varieties of "transfer" type lettering And you can get small illustrations from dozens of sources.. But, be careful. Do not reproduce illustrations from any materials that bear a copyright notice, or you could get into trouble. Ask your printer for sources of illustrations. If you require a professional typographer, check the ads in mail order trade publications. One typographer that has been commend to us is: WOLF ENTERPRISES, 111 Carmichael Court, Cary, NC 27511. And for some excellent FREE advertising art samples that you can use for your own ads and circulars, send a self-addressed STAMPED envelopes plus loose first class stamp to: FUN MATES ART SAMPLES - Dept. 5-5.

4. If you are NOT mailing out chain letters or multi-level schemes with your name on them, you probably won't have to worry about ever receiving a letter from a postal inspector. However, if you DO receive one, simply sit down and answer it truthfully and immediately. If they mention that they think you may be promoting a certain program through the mail that they object to, STOP mailing other programs that you might be promoting. They usually tell you what one they are complaining to you about. Don't be alarmed if you usually tell you what one they are complaining to you about... Don't be alarmed if you get a letter from the postal inspectors. Unless you are REALLY doing something ILLEGAL,, ( and you will KNOW that, if you are), you have nothing to fear from the postal inspectors, so don't get a heart attack if you happen to receive one of their "intimidation letters".
If you are unaware of the various types of illegal schemes making the rounds, you should read "common Mail Order Rip-offs To Avoid", which could save you time, trouble, money and even embarrassment.
