The Next Real Estate Boom + Create an Instagram Ad That People Like + much more...

885,391 daily readers and growing! December 25, 2015 The Next Real Estate Boom Dear Reader, What if I told you the next five years in real estate could set you up for a massive retirement -- much bigger than you probably ever considered? Why? Because real estate is coming back and it’s coming back huge! Every day there’s another news report that real estate is finally beginning to make a huge comeback. Many believe that the current recovery will be just as big as the crash -- bigger than any real estate boom in history. Like most booms, though, it will happen fast, and many will be left sitting on the sidelines and miss a huge opportunity. How will they miss it? Because they won’t realize it’s happening until it’s too late, because they are still looking for customers where there are no customers. And just like most booms, you can bet on the Pareto's Principle. Or to put it another way, apply the 80/20 rule: 80% of agents will miss out while 20% catch and ride the biggest real estate wave of their career, making massive incomes and setting themselves up for life in only a few short years. And I’m not just talking about millionaire real estate investors; I’m talking about regular agents selling residential real estate. Don’t believe me? Okay, well just sit back and watch while some of your peers get rich. The secret to taking advantage of this next housing boom is being the agent who knows where and how to find the customers. There are plenty of customers, but according to the stats, unbelievably the majority of agents are still using the old-school methods and are grabbing only a tiny fraction of the potential business. Why? If you want to catch fish, you have to go where the fish are biting. And real estate is no different. According to the latest data from the National Association of Realtors all but 5% of today’s homebuyers are starting online. That means if you aren’t effectively fishing online, then don’t be surprised if you don’t catch many fish. And I don’t mean having a website. I mean having a website that brings in customers -- every single day on autopilot. A website that actually works. Most agents -- the 80% -- spend tons of money on marketing and have very little to show for it. But it doesn’t have to be that way. A very few agents -- the other 20% who know the secret to finding customers online, are doing better and spending less than ever before. Every day they get up to find 2-3 new customers in their inbox and many don’t spend a dime on advertising, placing free ads online just like I show them to, and just like I do myself. What makes this possible is three little letters: L-C-M. Remember these letters -- they stand for Lead... Capture... Module. Now, you probably have no idea what an LCM is and that’s okay. But know this: Using this simple and yet incredible tool many agents had business even when the bottom fell out. (I know because I wrote an article about one!). And now as the boom is starting, they’re starting to close transactions like never before. And what's great is they aren't investing tons on advertising because they don't have to. I can tell you that I personally don’t spend a dime on advertising and yet I’m getting 2-3 new, inbound leads every single day, day in and day out, because of my web site. I like to say it's on "autopilot" because it flies itself. I rarely if ever touch it. The LCM gateway is simple feature I have on my "Ultimate Website", and its sole purpose is capturing online shoppers. The typical real estate website brings in no business, and I don't have to tell you that, because you probably have one. And whether it costs you money directly or not, it's costing you a huge amount of business. On the other hand, my Ultimate Website (combined with free advertising) is bringing me 2-3 inbound customers every day, year round. Enough business that I can cherry pick the customers I want to work with and refer out the rest. View my personal website here » Better yet, our geeks hold your hand to help you get the website up and running so you’re not on your own like with so many technology tools you’ve tried before. Instead of spending hours every single day fishing where the fish aren’t biting, you set up your Ultimate Website and watch as fish jump right into your boat -- or inbox. The first time you see it happen you’ll be amazed... and then the light will come on. I know that many of you are thinking this sounds too good to be true. It is too good to be true, but it IS true. This is the holy grail of online lead generation. Nothing else even comes close. I used to tell agents that my website is not a magic bullet, but one day I realized it IS a magic bullet. Let me give you a couple of examples: Take Kevin, a truck driver and part-time agent that wanted to make some extra money. We helped him set up his website and in three months he had a choice to make: Should he quit driving his truck and start doing real estate full-time? After all, his part-time income was more than his full-time job. He decided to go for it! That first year Kevin made $351,623 and the next year he earned $541,298! Having a never ending supply of business changed his life. Made him rich too. He bought a brand new SUV, a brand new convertible, and a 6,000 square foot mansion with a 5 car garage, a detached office, and an olympic sized pool. And that was while the market was still tanking. But that was a few years ago. Let me share just a few emails from recently. Here’s Charlyn, a single mom and new full-time agent: Matt, I HAD to email you. I've worked in and around the real estate business for years, but this is my first year as a full time agent. I found your LCM technology last month, and I immediately knew that that's what was missing from my practice. I set it up and posted my first free ad in about 15 minutes just like you showed me and I got two customers overnight!!! I called one lead immediately, got them qualified the SAME DAY, and now we are closing just three weeks after showing them their dream home! Plus, I'm still getting 3-4 new customers per week from my FREE ads, just like you said. I can honestly say I'm thrilled about my future in real estate, because I don't have to worry about where my next customer will come from! Thank you!!! - Charlyn G., NC Hi Levi, Here are my numbers from just the past two weeks, Aug 28 - Sep 11: ▪ 70 new customers total ▪ 30 I actually talked to (some conversations were very quick or I got hung up on) ▪ 15 I setup on auto-email of homes Right now, I have one deal pending from the total number of customers I've received. I had another pending, but it fell apart (I'll sell him something else, so not worried there). I'm showing houses actively to about 5 buyers right now. And I have 52 people in total getting auto-emailed homes. In other words, a huge pipeline of business, all from free craigslist ads! Thanks! Matt M. OK Matt, We’ve talked several times over the last couple years. I always have good intentions to get serious about using my ultimate website but just never seem to get things implemented. Finally, 24 hours ago from right now I looked at the cragslist part on the admin page. I did exactly like it says, not changing anything. Posted my free ad. It’s 24 hours later and I have 5 leads. Thanks! Doug But don’t take their word for it. Give it a try. Unlike most technology, there’s no long term contract, and there’s no activation fee. In fact, the cost of having the very best online technology for gathering business is a lot less than you might think. It’s less than a cup of Starbucks a day. That’s right, less than a cup of Starbucks a day! Listen, I want you to imagine what it would be like to be in that 20% that catches this next incredible real estate boom. Wouldn’t it be nice to work hard for the next five years and make enough money to never work another day? With my Ultimate Website that can be a reality. It can be YOUR reality. This could be the moment you’ve been waiting for. The key to turning things around. In fact, if you’re currently doing traditional real estate, this IS your key to turning things around. So give it a try. I mean really, what do you have to lose except maybe some advertising bills. Give it a try and you’ll see... you’ll have more business than you can handle starting your very first day. Agents who use it are generating an average of 2-3 new inbound leads every day without spending additional money on advertising. It costs less than most websites and there is no long-term commitment or activation fee. Here is a link: http://GuerillaRealty.com.   You cannot fully understand the feeling of freedom you get when you have the power to generate new clients AT WILL until you actually experience it for yourself. It’s incredible and it completely changed the trajectory of my career. I personally went from struggling to having a team of a dozen agents in about six months time… simply by having lots of opportunities. If you’re reading this and haven’t had a chance to check out my Ultimate Website with LCM technology, I urge you to take a moment to see what all the fuss is about. I think you will be very favorably impressed, and if you decide to try it today, I’ll give you a promo code that will get you an extra $350 in bonuses, but it will only work today.

Take the Pressure Off + Prices and Mortgage Rates to Go Up in 2016 + much more...

885,391 daily readers and growing! December 24, 2015 Take the Pressure Off   Dear Reader, I was talking to a veteran agent the other day who’s seen a lot of changes during his 10-plus years practicing real estate. Like many of us, he’s been sold program after program and has wasted thousands of dollars on many of the “latest and greatest” ways of solving the age-old problem: finding that next customer. We talked about some of the dumb ideas we’d both tried, from walking neighborhoods handing out expensive fliers and refrigerator magnets, to personal brochures, to fancy newsletters, to various homes magazines… you name it, between us we had tried about every idea that had come down the pike. He talked about buying leads, and I told him how I had bought leads too, only to find out that the same leads had been sold to other agents in my market. We talked about how referrals seem to have dried up and how we never got a call off our yard signs any more. Both of us had also tried technology, thinking that if the customer had gone online, maybe we needed to go online to attract them. We compared notes about the different websites we’d tried and laughed about how much money we’d wasted on internet marketing. But here is where our paths had taken different directions. He had gotten frustrated with online marketing and basically written it off. He’d thrown out the baby with the bathwater, so to speak. On the other hand, because I was having so little results with everything else, I made up my mind that I was going to “crack the code” and figure out how to capture some of the business that everyone knew was out there on the internet. He asked me how my website was doing now, and I was able to tell him that literally 99% of my business came from my online marketing. I told him it changed everything for me and that now I have multiple inquiries every day. He wanted to believe me but I could tell he was struggling with it. He then candidly shared with me how he’d only had a handful of leads from his website in the entire time he’d had it, and not a single closing. I assured him that I completely understood and that was how my website was at first. But I had finally figured out how capture online shoppers using a tool I had to build myself. The tool: my LCM gateway. As we discussed it and I answered many of his questions, he asked me about using my Ultimate Website and I told him I’d be happy to let him license it and that I already licensed it to lots of other agents around the country and would be honored to have him use it too. I felt like it would make a real difference for him and it would take a lot of the pressure off. To make a long story short, he signed up that day and sat in on a very simple training session along with a couple of other agents who were just getting started too. In a matter of 24 hours he began generating new business from the internet using nothing but my Ultimate Website system and free online advertising like we taught him. Did my technology make him a better agent? No. Did it make him any smarter? No. Did it make him more money? Absolutely. Most importantly though, it took away the stress of not having customers to work with on a daily basis. And I can tell you from experience, having that freedom is priceless. So if you’re reading this and wondering if it could work the same for you… If you are frustrated with spending money on technology that is not making you money… If you would like to experience, first hand, the freedom of never worrying about where the next customer is coming from… then check out my Ultimate Website system.
