You can earn tens of thousands of dollars virtually overnight by using this strategy to wholesale properties to other investors. I’ve used this strategy to easily gain control of properties and acquire them NO MONEY DOWN for years. I’m sharing this strategy with you on the webcast. I know that once you’ve learned the power of this strategy, you will want to learn more powerful ways of acquiring real estate.”

How to Automate Your Business by Capturing Calls 24/7 with Voice Mail & Live Answering Systems
Posted on June 19, 2012 byMost savvy real estate investors and business owners agree that the bulk of their business relies on effective marketing to produce a steady flow of leads. But what happens when you learn to market well and your phone starts ringing at all hours, day or night? What’s next?
The next step is to capture information from those callers so that you can follow-up with them and convert them from “suspects” into real “prospects”. When a potential customer calls, you can have a pre-recorded message that informs them about your business and urges them to leave a brief voice mail message. You can also allow them to press “0” to speak to a live person 24/7 who can capture more useful information rather than just a name, number and brief message.
Eric Shurke, of Voice Nation, will be our special guest speaker at the Atlanta REIA North Meeting on Wednesday, June 20th at 6:30 PM at 1960 Skylar Hill Dr, Suite D, in Buford, GA. Eric will be talking about how successful real estate investors leverage automated voice mail systems and live answering specialists to capture leads 24/7 effortlessly so they can work smarter and not harder to earn more money.
