The Persistent Entrepreneur

THE MAIN DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE MOST SUCCESSFUL PEOPLE ON THE PLANET AND THE OTHERS IS MINDSET "Your net worth is determined by your network." Toby Salgado The theme that you will see with the most successful agents is that they start out from the beginning with a mindset to build a business. We must invest everything in ourselves and our business. STEPS TO BEING SUCCESSFUL • FIND A MENTOR • SURROUND YOURSELF WITH SUCCESSFUL PEOPLE • BUILD A FUNNEL • OWN YOUR OWN PLATFORM • YOU MUST BELIEVE IN YOURSELF • INVEST IN YOUR BUSINESS About Toby Salgado: I got an early start. My first "business" was at age 9. I saw an magazine advertisement selling toilet bowl cleaners wholesale. The ad said that the cleaners had a "double your money back guarantee". At first I thought of buying them and returning them for double my money but, after learning from my parents I couldn't do that I still wanted to see if I could make any money from this "opportunity". I had about $300 dollars and I borrowed another $500 from my parents. I invested all of my lawn mowing money and my $500 dollar loan into toilet bowl cleaners. I went door to door and sold them all in a few months. For more information about our guests or our services, visit http://davidihill.com

I've mostly floated through life, reacting as opportunities presented themselves. In school I found a passion for helping others by giving advice, encouragement, or time. After college, I had no idea what I wanted to do. I worked in various supporting and leadership roles in the corporate world until I realized I was miserable—although I didn't know why. I needed a change, so I decided to become a real estate agent. I got to work with people on a more personal level, educating and guiding them through an important process. Working in real estate exposed me to the world of personal growth, self-help books, and business coaching. Before I knew it, I had my own business coach and was leading a small group of real estate agents and home loan officers.
