We will send a professionally designed marketing piece to our targeted mailing list of potential buyers throughout the area. This direct mail campaign is designed to capture the attention of the target market and direct them to our website and office for more information about the auction.
We place large banners and signs on your property as well as informational and directional signs on other local roads as permitted.
