I do a combination. I scout to find an area. Then I use OnXmaps to secure addresses of the area I'd like to hunt. I then will write letters explaining about me and what i want to hunt.
I do include a self stamped envelope.
So really its a combination of door knocking and letter writing and phone calling.
I secured quite a few properties via the US mail.

Go to the local farm stores and asked if any farmers are having hog problems. If you get some names knock on their doors and asked permission to hunt. Do not go in hunting clothes to asked permission, just wear some nice clean clothing.

I've tried answering the adds in Craigslist and it didn't end well, it advertised for cheap hog hunts and well...you get what you paid for! Another outfit had quit doing hogs hunts, and the last one I contacted would charge close to two hundred bucks for one hog. Buyer be aware! If going through a well known and reputable outfitter that's going to charge a lot for a decent hunt is out of your limitations I hear some options here that are worth exploring, door to door is a good one, it requires some time investing but the truth is if it was easy anybody would do it!.
