By August 28th I will find my first property. Can't be lazy

So it's been 3-4 months since I started Direct mailing correctly I got some good leads, made offers and had one under contract but failed at closing because of the title. I DM to absentee owners send out 700 letters/month. My goal for this month is to work even harder before to get more leads and get my first investment going. Right now what I been doing for the past 3-4 months feel like I been lazy. You know just waiting for calls to come in then answering them and getting info out of them, then re-touching bases with them (Keep in mind I get 2-6 calls a week).

My goal till August 28th of 2017 is to find a house to fix and flip (have a lender that will pay all) and to wholesale as well passing my Real Estate license final. This is what I'm going to change and keep the same

  • Keep DM the same
  • Start adding Bandit signs around 50 of them
  • Door Knocking from 4-7pm (saying; I'm not here to sell but to inform you of my business that we have pool of home buyers that will pay cash fast and close quickly and also help to sell or buy a home, if you or anyone you know might be interested let us know (give her my business card) if we close on any deal you referral us we will give up to 300$ to you (bird dogging)
  • Days that I won't door knock, Promoting what I do outside a store, gym (more bird dogging)
  • Going REI meetings, network more to find my first deal.

It's time for me to go and find does leads and make deals happen. Got to work harder, even if I'm going to feel very uncomfortable.

I will update every day from Monday (24 of July) of what I'm doing. Let me know if you got any tips!
