Sat, June 28 @ 8:15 AM – Smyrna, GA
Join us on June 28th for a REAL, LIVE, HANDS-ON…
Door Knocking Field Trip
With Bill Cook

Do you want to SEE the fastest, cheapest, most effective way to get face-to-face with motivated sellers?

Bill CookThen join me, Bill Cook, for a day full of door knocking with real sellers on Saturday, June 28th from 8:15 AM – 3:45 PM. We’ll spend the day out talking to sellers and constructing win-win deals at their kitchen tables.

What’s the fastest, cheapest, most effective way to get face-to-face with motivated sellers? When you see a For Sale sign in a seller’s yard, get out of your car and knock on the seller’s door. It’s as simple as that!

I know what you’re thinking: The seller will slam the door in my face; the seller will yell at me; the seller will tell me to get lost.

I know something else, too: You say this having never spent a single day out knocking on homeowners’ doors – especially out knocking doors with someone who has done it for more than 35 years!

Register Now!

Some of the Questions I’ll Answer While We’re Out Door Knocking:

  • Which homes should you go to?
  • How and where should you stand when at the seller’s door?
  • What should you carry with you?
  • What do you say when the seller answers the door?
  • What do you do if no one is home?
  • Why will 8 out of 10 sellers invite you in?
  • What are the best types of neighborhoods to work?
  • What do you do after the seller invites you in?
  • How do you get to the seller’s kitchen table and why it’s THE place to be?
  • What are the MOST important questions to ask a seller?
  • How do you construct a win-win offer?
  • What do you do if the house is vacant or bank owned?

On Saturday, June 28th, 2014 at 8:15 AM, I’ll be taking a select group of real estate investors out door knocking. We’ll be meeting in at the Home Depot parking lot located at 1200 East-West Connector, Austell GA beside the Garden Section facing Floyd Rd at 8:15 AM SHARP.

Just think, you have the opportunity to spend the day out meeting with sellers in the real world with someone who has made his living knocking on homeowners’ doors for more than 35 years!

Register Now!

I promise you’ll come away with some really great stories, plus a couple of big Ah-Hah moments that can dramatically change the course of your real estate investing life!

You must learn how to be a great marketer to be able to find great deals no one else can and be able to attract cash buyers so you can close within days.

When you run your real estate investment business properly, you will get paid within days not weeks or months, just like most successful wholesalers do. Of course this is easier said than done, right? Well, it is that easy when you know what to do, how to do it, when to do it and when you have the right resources available to you.

During the Marketing Madness Workshop, I will share tons of useful and up to date information and teach you how to become a “Marketing Machine” and the “Go-to Person” for hot deals in your market.

Come Learn from “Papa”

Posted on March 21, 2014 by

Good Friday afternoon everyone,

Ron LeGrand is coming to town for a one day event tomorrow. He comes into town about once a year at most and this is a rare opportunity to see him for a very small price. If you have not been introduced to this man, we affectionately call him “Papa” and many of us owe a great deal of thanks to him for sharing his wisdom and knowledge about real estate with us.

If you are having trouble and struggling with getting your real estate career off the ground or if you have been out of the game for a while, this would be a great place for you to be tomorrow. Ron has some new techniques to share with us that can put money – good money – in your pocket within 30 days when you follow his system. I’m really excited to be a part of the Atlanta Homebuyers Society which is intended to help you do just that.

This is not an advertisement. It is not a shameless promo. This is something I am sharing with you that I wholeheartedly believe in, because without Ron, I don’t believe I would have had success in my career that I have been so fortunate to experience. What if spending tomorrow with Ron could change the course of your life for the better? I know it did mine and I hope you will join us tomorrow.   Last I checked, we did have a few seats still available. That was this morning, so if you’d like to join us go ahead and get registered ASAP.

For more information on this event, please go to http://ron.atlantareia.com.

Everybody have a great weekend!

Gary Johnston & Clyde WilsonIMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT: We just found out that Jimmy Napier was in a car accident. The good news is that he only has some injured ribs and will be OK. The bad news is that he will not be teaching the “Increasing Your Cash Flow” Workshop this weekend due to his injuries.

However, there is more good news. The Cash Flow Show goes on… Gary Johnston (who was our guest speaker in January) and another living legend, Clyde Wilson, will be filling in and teaching for Jimmy. Clyde is Jimmy’s #1 student and has accumulated over a $30M net worth in his many, many years of real estate investing.

Gary will also be making a special appearance at North Georgia REIA on Thursday, March 13th at 7:00PM at the Hilton Garden Inn in Cartersville, GA. He’ll be talking about how to increase your cash flow each and every month. In addition, he’ll be talking about how to turn an adversity – like what happened to Jimmy – into a positive outcome.

So if you already made plans to attend this event… please do! You will not be disappointed. In fact, Gary and Clyde are so convinced that you will love this training event, that you can attend both days and if you are not completely satisfied, they will gladly refund your money. Also, if you decide not to attend the event, they will still gladly refund your money.

Increasing Your Cash Flow
A 2 Day Workshop with Jimmy Napier
March 15 & 16 in Atlanta, GA

PLEASE READ IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT ABOVE

Jimmy NapierLearn from a Legend! Don’t miss this opportunity to hear Jimmy teach! For over thirty years Jimmy has accumulated a series of cash flow and wealth building tools and ideas. Many of these he transferred onto business cards that he could review before entering into a negotiation or transaction.

Jimmy is teaching a full two day seminar based on his ideas on how you can increase your cash flow! Each one of his strategies is capable of saving you money, protecting your wealth, or increasing your negotiation power. There are ways to buy with little or no money and important clauses to include in your contracts, notes and mortgages. Discover ways to finance property and ways to de-finance property.

These are tools and strategies you can use whether you are buying or selling, borrowing or lending. These tools and concepts will work for you whether you’re dealing with notes and mortgages or real estate.

Can’t get insurance? Need to raise cash? Do you have a negative cash flow problem? Would you like to be able to defuse a balloon note? Do foreclosures cost you too much? What clauses are important in a lease option?

The answers to all these questions, and more, are there in Jimmy’s ways to increase cash flow. Any one of them could be worth many times your investment in this seminar.

These tools and ideas have stood the test of time. These are the things that the wealthy and successful teach their kids. Can your kids do without the same information?

Should you attend?

Only if you want to have the tools you need to become financially free — and stay that way. It doesn’t matter if you’re a beginning investor or a seasoned veteran, you need this information. Real estate professionals owe it to their clients to learn this information.

100% Money Back Guarantee! After attending all two days of the class, you aren’t completely satisfied, we will give you 100% of your money back. What do you have to lose? Sign-up today!
