Thank you to everyone that actually answered my question. I appreciate it.

As a few of you noted its not practical to do this manually. I've been in buseinss 16 years and have hundreds of past clients.

As far as budget, this will be your most effective dollars, not sure what you are spending your money on, but being in touch with past clients is hands down the best source for repeat and referral business.

If I can spend a half day and reach 300+ past clients Im going to do it.
