That's better than MOST of my IP autos. BTW, that is pretty quick turn around for an AS CL like Joe Nathan

 

[scittlz]

This is amazing! That is some pretty good turn around time for most of those. Definitely please keep sharing because this is sweet!

 

[stlalways94]

Thanks! I have a little trick for making them come back so fast...

Hmmmm... sounds suspicious. Lol. It's good that you have a system worked out.

Thank's lol. The secret: Use 6x9 yellow unpadded envelopes to send you request. Since I switched to that from the business envelopes, my return rate/speed has gotten much higher/faster. I guess they just get noticed more. Also, they cost the same amount for postage, so that's nice!

That's clever. I doubt I would have thought of that. When I get some time to try this out, I will be sure to use that kind of envelope.
