One example was Dan Kennedy sending me a big package for a seminar he was holding with a custom wanted poster, a fifty mil shell with casing, and other materials.
I was wondering if anyone could give some examples of "Outrageous" items they have received in the mail or delivered that made an impact on them.

I can't right now remember the name of the book...
There's a book out there, by a guy who was originally a cartoonist.
In order to get meetings with difficult-to-meet people, he would draw a customized cartoon of them, and send it in the mail!
That got their attention! And he often got his meeting!
Now... you can do this
without being a cartoonist...
You can spend maybe $5 or $10 on Fiverr and get someone to do a cartoon for you (based on a photo). Then send it to your prospect...
I've never tried this (I've managed to find other ways to get the meetings I want, so far)... But I think it's something that seems to work! (It would get my attention!)
I know this is slightly different from what you're asking - since it's customized. But it's what popped into my mind!
Could also be worth it to sell high ticket products or services...!
Best wishes,
