"Direct mail gets more views of our advertisements and promotions," said Gabster. "For years, there was a tale that the demise of direct correspondence as a promotions pipeline was imminent. But 2019 saw the most increased average reaction speed since 2003. It's not slowing down."

I can sit on the beach with my laptop and work all day, which of course, I think is everybody's endgame, being able to work wherever you want, being able to travel as much as you want, work wherever in the world you want, and make as much as you want. But the way to get there is by building relationships."
