Storage Wins

Don Costa was managing a 16 person team before COVID hit. He's now running his team incredibly lean and he's learned a couple of things along the way. He shares how to build a strong business foundation, what to do when you have a real winner on your team to keep them engaged, and so much more on this week's episode! KEY TAKEAWAYS: Since COVID, Don has chosen to downsize his team (and get lean!) Don asked himself, how can he and his team make more money than what they're already doing. It makes no difference what your gross rev is when your margins are tiny. When you're in growth mode, how much money are you really keeping? What does it mean to have a strong business foundation? If you have a buy box, stick to it! Don't try to put a square peg through a round hole. How did Don's business get so bloated? Business is meant to serve you and others. This is why you must have a plan. Don knows that if he is bored, he is dangerous. He will always be working and doesn't plan on ever retiring. What is Don doing to get more business through his door with less staff? Do not stop following up until the seller tells you to kick rocks. The best acquisition managers have a very small life span. You get a good 12-24 months before they move on. You have to hold your team accountable and sometimes that means listening to sales calls. By hiring more people, you can actually end up starving your top-player out. And guess what happens when you starve a winner? How is Don keeping his team sharp and up-to-date? If you don't have a good disposition's person in your corner, you're doing all of this wrong. If you're not training your team in marketing and sales, you're doing yourself a disservice as well. Prepare for the worst, but hope for the best.

Chris Michaels is an Entrepreneur and a direct response marketing ninja! He's not a real estate investor, and that's actually a good thing. When it comes to marketing, many real estate investors operate in the stone age. This is why Alex has a guy like Chris on to bring an outside perspective on marketing, and how we can reach our ideal prospects to maximize our ROI. Key Takeaways: Marketing and sales will always be at the heart of any business. No matter what your industry. Real estate investors are behind the times when it comes to marketing. Chris isn't in real estate, and that's actually a good thing. How did Chris get started in marketing? Chris's first ad on Facebook was a total flop. If you understand sales and marketing, you'll never starve. How did Chris get started in the real estate space? Believe it or not, social media and marketing are easier than you think it might be. We tend to overcomplicate things. People associate trust with consistency. People can be too impatient when it comes to their ads and don't give it enough time to just "sit" and see if it works. When you serve people on a powerful level, they'll naturally trust you, and even better, they'll tell other people about it too. How many people would get in line when they don't even know what it is for? People follow the leader even when it doesn't make sense to. How do real estate investors generate more social proof? Take your customers through a journey that makes them truly feel the experience. Emotions drive sales. How do you discover who is a motivated seller vs. not? Marketing takes constant experimentation and tweaks. It takes time to figure out the perfect formula. It's so important to figure out who your avatar is and cater to them in your marketing materials. Alex loves Chris's products. Nobody can tell your story as well as you can tell your story.

Alex has gotten so much value out of joining masterminds and wants to share how you can get the most out of your investment. He has five key tips for you in this week's episode! Key Takeaways: Masterminds have been deeply impactful to Alex's life and business! How do you get the most out of your mastermind? Here's a tip: start at the top and ask the Founders why this particular mastermind is different. Be very intentional and proactive about building relationships within a mastermind. If you're an introvert, these strategies still apply to you! Take mental notes about the types of stories your new mastermind members are sharing with you. You've made a large investment in yourself, leverage it! Do more listening and do less talking. One of the reasons why people join masterminds is for accountability. Think about some of the ways that you can hold yourself accountable and what motivates you to get things done. Be a contributor! Always seek to give, not receive. No matter what, be an active member of the mastermind. So many people join masterminds to not do anything with it! What's holding you back right now from living your vision? No one has it figured out 100% and the more real and honest we are about that, the easier it is for others to help you.
