I am new to the business and would like to create a postcard to mail to various people and organizations - to get the word out about me. Has anyone done this before, and is it effective?
 
I had some success. You have to give them a reson to contact you. You also have to make sure to follow up with them. Its one of those things were you have to send out a ton and get a small response.
