Opportunity Knocks Celebrates Second Anniversary

Bradenton, FL, Jun 19, 2007 - /FLIERWIRE/-- Real estate industry leader ProspectsPLUS! is celebrating the second anniversary of its thriving subsidiary, Opportunity Knocks.

Using the technology and architecture behind the organization's highly successful MLSmailings.com, company President Jim Morton and Executive Director Jim Schimpf set out to offer the same high-quality product to markets beyond real estate. Opportunity Knocks customers include mortgage professionals, landscapers, contractors, painters, cleaning services, medical professionals, financial planners and insurance companies and more.

The Opportunity Knocks team starts by helping customers identify their target audience. Utilizing data-mining strategies to manipulate national databases, customers can then target the demographic with the highest probability of purchasing their product or service. Next, they design a postcard and select a direct-response message, then the Opportunity Knocks team digitally prints, addresses, affixes first-class postage, fully laminates and ships the cardsin most cases within 48 hours.

"We are leveraging technology solutions to help small businesses with their biggest challenge-driving prospects through the door," says Schimpf. "From a direct mail perspective, you can't do better than that. By helping our clients identify their perfect customer first and marketing to that specific audience, we obviously help them spend their marketing dollars more wisely, create denser service routes and dramatically increase their response rate."

On track to pass the $2-million mark in revenue this year, there is no slowing this team of professionals. Morton and Schimpf are thrilled with the success of the venture from a business standpoint as well as from a customer service standpoint.

"It has always been our mission to provide the right marketing tools at the right time for the right people," Morton explains. "The fact that we can take the knowledge, expertise and systems that have worked so effectively for our 60,000+ real estate clients and share those successful solutions with entrepreneurs and small-business owners nationwide is enormously gratifying for us."

"We had huge success with the first batch of postcards we sent out," shares First Principal Mortgage CEO Kevin Block. "We received a phone call that gave us a major networking lead that has already given us three loans in less than one week. The investor wants to buy four homes a month for the rest of the year. Our account executive Maureen has been more than willing to help us utilize Opportunity Knocks to its fullest potential. This has helped us when working with REALTORS®.

"Your company has given us more opportunities than any other company I have ever used for marketing," Block adds. "I have been in the mortgage industry for 14 years and have yet, until now, had as much success with a marketing company. We will continue to use Opportunity Knocks to its fullest extent."
