Please join us at the Atlanta REIA Main Meeting on Monday, October 14th from 5PM to 9PM at the 3125 Presidential Pkwy, Atlanta, GA where our special guest speaker will be Joe Dillon who will be talking about Advanced Wholesaling Strategies on “How to Structure a 7-Figure Wholesaling Operation to Generate Massive Amounts of Leads & Have Consistent Deal Flow!”

Let’s face it. The wholesaling business isn’t as easy as we thought it would be, especially in a competitive market like Atlanta. However, we all want that freedom that a truly automated real estate business can can give us, so what do we do?

In Joe’s presentation, he’s going to cover how to structure your Real Estate Company so that you can build a business that runs without you and be well on your way to earning 7 figures like you’ve always dreamed.

Joe says “The first thing we’ll go over are the different stages of scaling your business. There are different actions you need to take at certain points of scaling your business. We’re going to cover what these stages are, how to know when to go to the next stage, as well as common roadblocks you’ll encounter at each stage.”

We’ll dive into the 3 departments of a Wholesaling business: Marketing, Acquisitions, and Dispositions. We’ll cover the key processes you need to implement within these departments to have an optimized operation. You should have a sophisticated Marketing plan every month so you can generate a ton of leads at low cost.

Next, you need to convert as many of those leads as possible into contracts, so we’ll cover ninja Sales tactics to close more deals and lead management to manage your leads better than ever.

Lastly, once you have more contracts I’ll teach you Dispositions hacks so you can increase your average deal size by 20-30%.”

RSVP NOW and you’ll leave the meeting with a ton of golden nuggets to implement and a well-rounded vision for your New Advanced, Automated Wholesaling Business!

Joe Dillon is a Real Estate Wholesaling expert and Coach, whose superpower is to take existing and experienced investors doing 0 to 3 deals a month, and help them explode to 5 to 10 deals a month. Joe built a multi-million dollar wholesaling firm that was operating in 5 different markets and now has the best program in the industry for scaling. His genius lies in his ability to systematize, structure, and process out this Real Estate acquisitions business and he’s passionate about helping the right people elevate. His program was built to help investors solve the issue of deal flow inconsistency.

What separates Joe from others in the industry is that he holds absolutely nothing back, has the ability to truly break down the business in a simple to understand way, gives you all the tools you would need to succeed, and truly cares about the success of his clients. Lastly, Joe is passionate about helping people not only become financially wealthy, but have incredible success and peace in every area of their personal lives.

My name is Vicky Schettini. I am a single mom and in 2014 I was suffering from the empty nest syndrome. Living from paycheck to paycheck with only $25.00 to spare, needed the security of passive income. I set out my goals 4 and a half years ago and went after them. Things didn’t go as planned at all…

I decided to move across country from California to Jackson, MS to be closer to my only daughter. I ended up homeless in a new town where I didn’t know a single person and only had $500 to my name. I was on a mission to build my wealth through real estate investing and decided I must do “Whatever it Takes” (WIT) to succeed. This meant I had to get creative… very creative.

Today, I have 3 companies; I have over 100 single family homes and 5 multi-family complexes. I have done over 1000 transactions and over 72 million in Real Estate. The system I created not only enabled me to survive, but it helped me thrive faster than I ever imagined was possible!

In today’s market, with so much competition, you need to stand out to have your offer accepted. I had to be creative to not only stand out from others, but also to get the sellers accept my offers.

What I did then, I’m doing now, and it works! I am living proof of it. I have perfected the “The Art of the Negotiation” and I WANT TO TEACH YOU! You don’t have to re-invent it, just use my system that actively works to get owner financed deals!

Join me at the Atlanta REIA Main Meeting on Monday, September 9th from 5PM to 9PM at the 3125 Presidential Pkwy, Atlanta, GA and I will teach you my “Bullet Proof Offer!”

At the meeting, I will teach you how to:

1. GET THE OFFER ACCEPTED
2. Have seller want to Owner Finance you and close the deal within days
3. Make it Simple
4. One Page Offer is all it takes
5. Write offers the Non-Selling Way

YOU CAN DO THIS! The way I do it is easy! You can start making money right away. Just do it! You can even do it part-time or full-time. JUST DO WIT (Whatever it Takes)!

RSVP NOW to attend the meeting and I will give you a BONUS GIFT called the “The Top 10 Real Estate Mistakes Report”. I look forward to seeing you there!
