@Dev Horn too funny door hangers... My dad starting in RE in 1965ish.. did not like the 3 leads a week the managers gave him... ( think Glen Gary glen ross) so he went out bought a printing press and taught me how to run it... then on sat me a a bunch of my buddies would walk the neighborhoods and put 2 to 3,000 door hangers out... we got paid a penny a piece... so it cost my dad maybe 5 cents. this generated about 20 or so leads for him every week.. and he closed 1 to 3 a week and soon was number one.. and soon after started his own company and had 100 agents working for him LOL.. that was my up bringing talk about starting at the bottom..
NOw a days parents are not going to drop 8 years off in a neighborhood at 7 in the mornig and let them walk for 3 to 4 hours LOL.. but that was another time....
