I’m very pleased to announce our next 80/20 Training Call! 

When:
Monday, July 10, at 5:30 pm Pacific/8:30 pm Eastern

What: 
The topic for this call will be ***How To Create Your Own Personal Landlord System*** presented by me!  You’ll learn how to apply systems to your real estate investing business, what types of systems are appropriate, why you would want to do this, and how to do it.  The objective is to increase your passive income.  There are a lot of real estate investors who have created “earned income” and they are working very hard for every dollar.  Real estate has become a second job.  We want passive income, which comes in without you having to work.  Just like we use OPM (other people’s money), we want to use OPT (other people’s time).  When you have TIME, you can think, get creative, find deals, optimize the cash flow at the ones you already own, etc.  When we’re short on time, we make hasty decisions, we’re less attentive, and unfortunately we sacrifice precious cash flow.

How: 
To join this call, please mark the date of July 10th on your calendar and go to:

So what does “80/20″ mean???

If you’re like me, you’re tired of all the teleseminars that are nothing but hype.  You think you’re dialing in to learn something and instead you get a 60 minute sales pitch.  My calls are different.  I’ve instructed all of my guest speakers that at least 80% of the call must be pure content and education that can be used right now to make a difference, and no more than 20% (12 minutes) can be spent presenting an opportunity for further education or action of some sort.  Don’t get me wrong - I definitely hope you take action after these calls.  Action is what gets results, and sometimes action is in the form of learning.  I just don’t want to waste your time on a sales pitch when I’d rather you learn something instead.

Talk to you LIVE on Monday!

I learned a long time ago to question everything.  Challenge the legitimacy of claims.  Wonder what substance is behind the title.  When someone has a license and three letters behind their name on their business card, we have that partial sigh of relief that we’re dealing with a professional.  There’s big business in associations and accreditations (is that a word?) that create those little letters after a name.  When someone has a license, they’ve received a rubber stamp from the government.  They must be good, right?  After all, they’re in a regulated industry with watchdogs.

As a buyer, a recipient of services, a valued client, we need to evaluate each professional we add to our team carefully.  I’ve been duped more than once by my own laziness in this area, particularly in selecting realtors.  I wanted to pass along a couple of examples of times when I relied on credentials and a reputation.  Hopefully this will save you from a potential mishap.
