With that said, you should know that direct mail pros are generally happy to get a response of from half a percent (. See similar questions...

The more info you provide in your email query or your phone message, the more quickly I can get back to you with meaningful information. Because of the volume of calls/emails we get, if you do not provide complete information, your request will likely get shunted to the bottom of the list. See similar questions...
