"I have been mailing to new homeowners through the Opportunity Knocks In the Door First program and received a phone call and sale for $4,500! I have only spent $506.95 in postcard mailings so far. The mailing list is provided by Opportunity Knocks and my postcards are sent for me. It is easy and effective!"

"I have been mailing new homeowner postcards through the In the Door First program at Opportunity Knocks. After only a few rounds of mailings, I received a call and did a $5000 living room for a new client. I am also waiting on a $6150 drapery order from a second and hope to hear from her this week. New Homeowners are a great targeted market to advertise to and with the mailings automated through In the Door First it is easy to reach them."

"I have found that my interaction with Angela and all the folks at Opportunity Knocks to be very courteous and professional. The post cards we have mailed looked great and we have received a good response from our first two mailings. In August we received 6 new leads from our mailer and sold 3 of those leads. The quality of client and size of roof has been going up as we have used this more focused direct mail method to advertise. I am looking forward to continued use of the PURL post cards from Opportunity Knocks."

Ken R. Stout

"The direct mail campaign has afforded us the chance to get our name out to potential clients that we would have otherwise not been able to do."

Laina Molaski
C & S Consulting, LLC

"We are using the postcards to explode the Sarasota market
for 1-800-GOT-JUNK, for homeowners getting rid of excess furniture, appliances and the like and for businesses. We see it as an integral part of our marketing for years to come. You've been extremely helpful to us and the process is very simple."

Leland Fay
1-800-GOT-JUNK

"The PURL postcard marketing campaign is awesome! We're seeing a 7% to 8% response rate, which is triple our current response rate with other tools. I get pre-qualified leads as soon as the prospect logs on to their website. This helps build my pipeline and gives me a measurable return on my marketing dollars."

John McCurdy
General Sales Manager
Dimmitt Land Rover

"I just sent out my first batch of postcards to potential clients and within 24 hours I recieved my first call from the cards. Maureen Sipperly was such a great help in gathering ideas for the cards and showing me how to place the order and future orders. She has been so much help. The cards look wonderful and have recieved a ton of compliments on them just from friends and family. Maureen has made the process so easy to use and I look forward to placing consistent monthly orders to send out postcards to potential clients. Thanks so much for everything!"

Michelle Bellgraph
The Judgment Redemption Specialists

"Although the response rate is about what I'd expect with a mail campaign, I've found that the leads are very well qualified. 100% of the responses have turned into appointments thus far, with a 50% closure rate. In fact, we just closed a $45,000 basement job, our largest so far, as a result of a neighborhood targeted postcard mailing and I'm waiting to hear back on a $48,000 estimate I did this morning."

Dan Trembley - Project Manager

"I am very happy to have been introduced to Opportunity Knocks. I'm especially pleased at how easy this service really is. I want to say that if you are hesitant about using the service, wait no longer! This program is VERY user friendly and my rep has made the transition a breeze. We just placed our first order of postcards to be mailed and I can't wait to see the results! Thank you!"

Laurie Eldredge
Basement Systems of New Hampshire, Inc.

"Since joining Opportunity Knocks in January, we have consistently sent out 800-1000 postcards a month in areas we are working in. We are continuing to keep our name and face in front of the right people with our message and as a result have seen an increase in jobs in those areas. The ease of this system is tremendous, just type in an address and the rest is done automatically. For someone like myself who is extremely busy, I truly appreciate the ease of ordering and managing my account. John Vigue has been a great asset too. He has always gotten back to me in a timely manor and has always delivered on getting a new card done or a change to a current card for me.

I look forward to the continued success with this Direct Mail program for the rest of the year! Thanks John and Opportunity Knocks!"

Jason Parker
President - Performance Painting Contractors Inc.

"I just wanted to let you know how pleased we are with the direct mail postcard program. Your website is extremely user friendly, the weekly email marketing tips are very informative, the postcards are not only appealing to the eye but effective in their content – kudos to Darlene Webber! In addition, several mailings have resulted in new business.

Thanks again for making our experience enjoyable and profitable!"

Carey Higgins
Office Manager

"We are a new up and coming company in the Commercial Mortgage industry and we planned on using our first mailer solely to get our name out there and let people know about us. To our surprise, our initial mailing of 2100 cards resulted in several appointments for our loan originators and we are currently working on a very significant loan based directly off a call from one of the postcards! We are in the process of setting up another postcard with John for some more big campaigns that we are planning in the near future.

The customer service at Opportunity Knocks is second to none. Our Account Executive, John Vigue, has proved to be a valuable resource in our marketing efforts. He was extremely responsive and attentive to our needs. Due to the outstanding customer service and success of our mailing, I will be setting up another account for a new business venture."

Devin Sanderson
Vice President

"I highly recommend Opportunity Knocks to any business owner who wishes to increase their marketing return. The service received by my account executive, John Vigue, has been excellent... my questions are always answered, my calls are promptly returned and my postcard response has been extremely fruitful. I received several RSVP's for my workshop event the day after the cards hit the mail boxes. I look forward to our continued successful partnership."

Ali Maricle
Interiors by Decorating Den

"I used Opportunity Knocks postcards last year with success, but suspended my service over the winter as we typically slow way down over the winter months.

Maureen Sipperley worked efficiently this spring to get me reactivated and set up with new postcards. I'm excited about gearing back up with the extra sales these cards bring in to my business."

Steve Grimm
President, Accent Concrete Coating, LLC.

"We were so happy to find out about Opportunity Knocks. We had been wanting to do mailing around our job sites for years, but have never done it because it was so labor intensive to do in house. With Opportunity Knocks we got a high quality, affordable, customized, personalized, way of marketing around our jobs. The best part is we only have to do 100 homes at a time. I've already referred two more clients to you based on this initial experience!"

Jeremy Brooks
President - Brooks Painting Inc.

"I would like to take this opportunity to thank Opportunity Knocks for helping us get our name out to the public as well as letting them know that we also have two satellite offices. Since starting the postcards we have had several patients purchase hearing aids from the satellite offices resulting in sales of $2770-5990 each.

Maureen Sipperley has always been there to help with the execution of all of our mailings."

Darlene DeGreen
Office Manager

"Due to the outstanding customer service and prompt handling of our mailings and advertising through Opportunity Knocks, we have incorporated a 6,000-postcard mailing into our monthly budget for each month of 2007.

Our rate of return has been the highest of any advertising we have ever done. We have hired 30 employees from our recruiting postcards and increased our new business by 15% from our advertising postcards.

We look forward to continuing to grow and prosper because
of Opportunity Knocks."

Angela Parisi
American Insurance Agencies of Greater Florida, Inc.

"I just wanted to let you know our success story from our first mailers we sent out. We recently dropped 1000 postcards, 500 cards into two different sub divisions around an address we had serviced. Out of those two drops we had at least 12 people in both areas come in with the postcards!!! Out of those 24 people that came in, we have landed at least 10 new jobs! Your program has been as advertised! We are very pleased with the entire service thus far and look forward to the continued success. Great Work Opportunity Knocks!"

Jim Perry
Entry Point – The Villages

"I wanted to let you know that I already received my first estimate off of my first 100 postcard mailer. This estimate was over $3000. Great return on investment! It was so easy to order too! I'm already set-up for my next 7 orders. Thank so much for your help."

Gary Sissons
Instyle Charlotte

"I would like to take this opportunity to thank Maureen Sipperley and staff for assisting in the first sale of my new business. We mailed your postcards to our target market one week prior to our first convention in which we exhibited. Several prospects handed us copies of our postcard mailer. Today we closed a $64,000 job as a result of your wonderful design and the hard work of Maureen to reach our deadline. Thanks again for your professionalism and great work."

Best wishes,

"Opportunity Knocks has helped tremendously with generating leads for our company.  Ace Duraflo spends on average $1,500 per week which produces about 2,000 postcards.  This system is fantastic; you can place the orders online with no assistance.  We budget $6,000 a month for Opportunity Knocks.  We send out about 8,000 postcards every month.  Of these 8,000 cards we mail out each month, we can expect to get 20 to 30 calls a week.  Our sales staff can set 8 to 10 appointments each week and close at least six of those.  I would highly recommend Opportunity Knocks to businesses that need more sales.  The staff at Opportunity Knocks is great.  When we needed help, John Vigue came out to our office and helped us create postcards that would help us reach our target market.  He also showed us how to be more effective on the ordering system and how to save the company money.  Thanks John and staff for the wonderful product."

Jeff Stumpo - Market Development Manager

"Opportunity Knocks has well laid out postcards, an easy to order system with prompt mailings and fantastic customer service.  John Vigue is our representative, but we have also worked with Jim Schimpf and Darlene Weber. They are all very professional and a pleasure to work with.  The ability to direct market to homes just around our job site with a couple of clicks of the mouse is an amazing money and time saver!"

Kim Dubay – Dur-A-Shield International Inc. 

"Postcards have been very dramatic in getting our name in the communities we are interested in growing. The personal touch is what helps the most and we ARE getting sales from them."

Ira Lenner
Arrow Environmnetal Services

"I was one of the first Interiors by Decorating Den accounts to get on board with Opportunity Knocks. John Vigue presented at our regional meeting and I was very impressed with the product. I've currently been consistently utilizing Opportunity Knocks since October of last year and have seen some pretty good results with the system thus far. I've found their direct mail postcards as a very effective tool to market in neighborhoods I am working in and to prospect in areas I want to get in. I love that I can hit areas I am working in while I'm out there or right after I left! Recently, John Vigue assisted me with a targeted list in an area that I wanted to get in and the response was great! The on-demand printing and quick turn around is outstanding. Not to mention the quality of card you are sending out is exactly the professional look I want to show! I get compliments on them all the time! My sales have been increased by thousands of dollars because of the Opportunity Knocks cards!

Thank you for such a wonderful product, quick turn around time, and outstanding salespeople such as John. He truly takes it the extra mile all the time. He understands that being a business owner requires attention in all directions and many times, marketing is one of the last things I can focus my time to, but he steps right up and makes it happen!

I look forward to utilizing this program throughout this year and the continued success! Keep up the great work!"

Joyce Means - Interiors by Decorating Den

"I wanted to let you know that I just sent 600 postcards to the same neighborhood I had a job in and since they hit the mailboxes, I got 3 calls in the first day and already 3 calls in the second day."

Morgan Glickman
Immaculate Homes

"Thank you very much for your help! I wanted you to know that of the first 300 cards I sent out, I've already had 3 calls and signed a new client... and it's the off-season. I am looking forward to the spring. This is just the kind of advertising I have been looking for."

Continued... "Thanks for the service you and the design team have given me. My cards always look professional and get the target customer I am looking for."

JoeEwing
Owner Joe Ewing Lawn Care, LLC

Intitial Response: "I wanted to provide you with an initial report. While we have only sent 200 postcards, we have already closed one account in the target neighborhood selected. That one call produced 5 times more revenue than the actual initial postcards! Great revenue, but more importantly it allowed us to identify where our perfect customer profile lived and directly send our customized message to those sets of eyes. The system was very easy and executed exactly how you said it would. Many Thanks!"

After having the service a while: "Just wanted you to know that we have picked up 5 new customers in our targeted area in the last 5 days."

Rick Garmon - Franchise Owner
The Maids of Jacksonville

"Just wanted to let you know that your marketing tool is as effective as word-of-mouth. We order between 1800 and 2000 postcards a week, and we see at least 5 estimates a week from them.We are closing half of them! Opportunity Knocks is working fantastically! I recommend all my business contacts to your system."

Justin Pierce
Blue Coyote Painting

"I find your postcards to be extremely effective. My approach is simple. Because I'm targeting a certain clientele, sending your postcards in the neighborhoods I want to target are producing the kind of calls and prospects I want while at the same time avoiding the unqualified "suspect." Your postcards arm me with the tools to compete with the larger competitors. Along with my yard signs in the yard, I feel these postcards provide me with a leg up on the competition in the neighborhood I'm marketing to. I have already received three jobs off the cards and I find myself hearing various comments from friends, neighbors and past customers who receive my cards. When things are going well, I feel that this is the best time to advertise. Cost effective branding in neighborhoods I want to target. I truly feel like I'm maximizing my potential! When people ask me if I can afford them, I simply respond with, I can't afford NOT to send them!" Thanks for the great service!"

Jay Tomaszewski - President
Jay's Painting and Remodeling

"I am truly happy with the curbing postcard, it looks awesome. I already received my first phone call from the first mailing a couple weeks ago. Considering I only sent 200 the first time out and got a call from that, speaks greatly on the postcard."

Thanks,

"I am a new business owner in the lawn care industry that needed to get my name out.  I came across John and Opportunity Knocks and it was the perfect system for me.  I had just hand wrote and delivered 200 of my own post cards, that I designed over the internet.  It seemed to take me forever and to this day, I still have a stack I haven’t gotten two.  The system is so quick and easy to do, which is key for me because time is money.  Being an owner of two different businesses, it is so nice with a click of a mouse, hit the closest 100 homes around where I am already working.  As far as response goes, it wasn’t until my 2nd and 3rd time hitting those same neighborhoods that I saw the results I was looking for.  But, just like John said, the more I hit the area with my card, the better the return I got.  Thanks for encouraging me to continue to hit those areas.  The system has more then paid for itself already.  Hats off to you and Opportunity Knocks."

"The Maids of Temecula Valley, located in Southern California, has confirmed a response rate of 1.00% on the Opportunity Knocks mailers and a close rate of 38% of those responses.  The cost effectiveness of using Opportunity Knocks, combined with the ability to easily customize the target demographics, as well as the rapid delivery of the OK mailers has truly promoted our business and increased our clientele.  We are extremely pleased with the Opportunity Knocks Postcard Mailings and strongly recommend they be considered for use by our sister franchisees or any other service oriented business.  Bottom line…they work!"

Mark Lockridge - General Manager

"I hadn’t done any new prospecting for auto in years until I came across Opportunity Knocks.  The system is so easy and convenient to use that I can send out my marketing for the month in a matter of minutes.  The cards themselves are fantastic, much better than anything I’ve done before and give the professional look I want.  This system has given me a chance to get in touch with my current book of business without auto policies and prospect the zip codes closest to my office.  With a $200 investment a month for the past 5 months, I have landed 6 new auto clients and have also signed on 5 new Citizen Policies for Home Owners Insurance as a direct result of the post cards, and those are only the ones that have qualified!  This is a can’t miss marketing opportunity for any business, especially State Farm agents.  Keep up the good work fellas."

Jim Vigue - State Farm Agent
St. Petersburg, Florida

"Thanks to the Opportunity Knocks Team we have generated several calls, as well as, referrals from friends and neighbors. I cannot believe they hit the mailboxes in 48 hours! Thats amazing!We even signed on two other dealers in the industry including some out of state buisnesses that we work closely with. Thanks Guys!"

Monica Pierce - Director of Marketing

"Jim, I wanted to inform you that we were just awarded a contract for a $58,000 job as a result of using your postcards!  We mailed between 400 and 800 postcards to the same area target area once a month for a period of three months and with just a $960 investment, we returned a $58,000 job!  We love how we can pinpoint a certain neighborhood area and hit the targets we want verses those 50,000 mailer campaigns all over the place!  Your postcards did what you said they would… thank you very much!"

Vincent Ragone - Vice President
Florida Landscape and Lighting Professionals.

"The postcards are working quite well. Best phone response yet. I will be uploading a new design for more mailers in the next couple of days, so be prepared! Keep up the great work. :) BTW, I showed the cards and told some folks at one of my statewide conventions last week. Everyone loved the idea."

Thanks!
Ian Ware - Owner

"I wish I had every penny I ever spent on magazine advertising back. That was the worst thing I ever did. The postcards are so much more effective and we get a great response. This has been way more cost effective for us than anything else we have ever done. Our message gets right in the hands of the kind of home owners we want.

The creative support from the Opportunity Knocks Team has helped me to stay on the cutting edge of targeted marketing and effective wording.

The results we have seen are GREAT! It's proven to be both successful and everything you said it would be. We have been an Opportunity Knocks customer for almost two years and we plan to be here another two! We love it!"

Dan Kelly

"Upon sending out my first batch of 200 cards, I received several Emails in response. The very first one I received had the subject line of "Your postcard worked!" What a great feeling knowing that my primary method of advertising this year was beginning to pay-off!"

"We have been more than pleased with your direct mail service and the response we received from your cards. We recently sent out 400 cards to our current client base and received 10 calls within the first three days, including three calls the day the cards hit the mailboxes. We look forward to doing some more mailings and adding a second card to our system. Great work
