Direct mail is upn there in effectiveness with networking. It even has an advantage. When networking, you can never be suer if you have reached absolutely everybody in a city or geographic area. With direct mail you can be sure you have reached everybody!

Where do you get the address lists from? InfoUSA.com or other list providers. I have commented on this in my blog.
