Sample call
- Susan“Hey, this is Susan with Northbridge Realty Group. Are you calling from one of our mailers?”
- Prospect“Yeah, actually I am. Bob Smith at 3 Hidden Meadow.”
- Susan“Nice to meet you, Bob. Have you thought about selling, or are you mainly curious?”
- Prospect“I got a move for work in a couple months, so we're looking for someone to help with the move.”
- Susan“Justin is with a client right now, so as soon as he wraps up I'm having him call you right back.”
How it works
Three steps that run on their own
Most mail goes to the wrong people, once, and nobody answers when they call back. MailMatch fixes all three. You set it up one time, and it runs every week.
Step 2
We mail them three friendly letters
Each person gets a short note on day 1, day 14 and day 28. The notes look handwritten and come in a plain envelope, so they get opened. Each one asks for a simple phone call.
Step 3
Susan answers and texts you
Your letters show a free local phone number. Susan, our AI receptionist, answers it day or night. She asks who is calling and what they need, then texts you the details and the recording.
No credit card. Nothing mails until you say go.
The letters
Read the three letters we send
Pushy sales letters turn people off. Ours are short, calm “Hi Neighbor,” notes you would be happy to sign. Pick your business to see yours.
A small, no-pressure offer. The P.S. offers a free report, so even people who are just curious have a reason to call.
No tricks or fake urgency. No jokes, no fancy logo. Just one neighbor writing to another.
One thing to do: call. Every letter shows one phone number, and Susan answers it. You set your name and business during setup.
Hi Neighbor, Are you considering selling 18 Crescent Lane anytime in the next 3 to 18 months? We have a few buyers looking in the area, and I wonder if your home might be a good fit. If you are at all open to a conversation, please call (973) 555-0148 and mention this letter. Thanks, Alex Morgan (973) 555-0148 P.S. Even if you aren't planning to sell anytime soon, you can call (973) 555-0148 if you would like a report showing what a buyer might pay in today's market. We can have that emailed over to you.
No credit card. Nothing mails until you say go.
Meet Susan, your AI receptionist
Never lose a good lead to voicemail
People read their mail after work, at night, or on the weekend. If they get voicemail, most never call back.
Susan answers every call on the first ring, from a local number in your area code. There is no “press 1” menu and no hard sell. She has a short, friendly chat, finds out who is calling and what they need, and tells them you'll call right back. Then she texts you the details and the recording.
Susan (answers on ring 1)“Hey, this is Susan with Northbridge Realty Group. Are you calling from one of our mailers?”
Prospect“Yeah, actually I am. Bob Smith at 3 Hidden Meadow.”
Susan“Nice to meet you, Bob. Have you thought about selling, or are you mainly curious?”
Prospect“I got a move for work in a couple months, so we're looking for someone to help with the move.”
Susan, then texts you the recording“Justin is with a client right now, so as soon as he wraps up I'm having him call you right back.”
No credit card. Nothing mails until you say go.

Questions
Common questions
What happens after I enter my email?
We email you a link. Click it and your free setup page opens. If you are new, we make a free Thanks.io account for you. There you pick your area, see how many people match, read your three letters, and call Susan from your own phone. All of that is free.
How do you find people who are looking for what I sell?
Thanks.io keeps track of what people look up online and where they live. Each day we look for people in your ZIP codes who looked up your kind of service, some as recently as the last three days. We skip anyone you have already mailed. Each new person costs 10¢.
Why three plain letters and not a glossy postcard?
A glossy postcard looks like an ad, so most people toss it. A plain envelope with a short, friendly note gets opened. We send three notes, two weeks apart, so people get a polite reminder and never feel pushed.
How does Susan handle calls? Do I get the recording?
Yes. Your campaign gets its own local phone number, printed on all three letters. The number is free. When someone calls, Susan answers right away, day or night. She asks who is calling and what they need, tells them you will call back, and texts you the details and the recording.
Do I need a credit card to try it?
No. You can enter your email, check how many people match in your area, and read your three letters for free. You only pick a plan and add a card when you are ready to start mailing.
Can I set a budget or pause?
Yes. You choose how many new people to mail each week, even just 10 or 20, so your cost stays steady. You can pause or stop any time with one click.
