Anyway, what is an average reply rate? I mean if I send 10 letters, how many replies will I get?
A. An average reply rate is 60-80%. One client purchased 11 addresses and got 7 answers. Another one purchased 6 addresses and got 4 replies. If you purchase 1 address, it is possible that you won’t get a reply at all, it depends, whose address you’ve got. Let’s be realistic: if she is young and beautiful and you are old and not so good looking 😉 – your chances are rather small (although many agencies will try to convince you that all Russian ladies like very much older men). If you are a farmer from Oklahoma and you are writing to a beautiful, intelligent lady with 2 higher educations and 3 foreign languages, she will probably not reply. If lady’s profile states that she speaks German or French and you sent her letter in English – don’t even try to ask us, where her answer is.
