Wholesaling Day to Day Workflow
Hey all,
I'm looking to get into wholesaling off-market properties and I'm currently paying for Flipster. I'm wanting to really understand what everyone's day to day looks like because right now I feel like I'm staring at my computer and I don't know what I need to be doing. What tools do you use and generally what activities are you doing through your day? Is it simply get a list of leads, skip trace them and then call/text? With all of these different softwares out there I feel like I'm missing something. Do you guys use a CRM to track your outreach? Do I need a website with SEO for inbounds or is cold outreach sufficient until I have the money for ppc/seo/ads etc?
Thanks for your insight.

All I can tell you is this my friend.
I was in your shoes too when I started.
I know that you think it is logical to think that way, to do the "wrong" methods first to get a dela to then do the right methods to get a deal.
But dude, translate into English what you are sugesting.
Here is what you are saying.
You want to do strategies that are proven not to work (like cold calling, driving for dollars, texting) to get a deal, so that YTHEN you will do strategies that DO work to get a deal.
Makes little sence right?
Now.. a bunch of people will try to convince you that cold calling works. Again, be careful ehere.
What is your definition of "it works".
Is it: "CAN you get a deal doing cold calling"? The sure, it works. Yes you absolutely CAN get a deal doing cold calling.
Doe sit work?
No of course it doesn't.
If your car only starts ONCE every 3000 times to turn the key, does the car work or not? No? But the car DOES start right? after so many tries? So why then do you still say the car doesn't work?
See my drift?
Look at this...

I see these kind of repleis over and over and over and over again. I just pasted one... there are a lot more.
So agian, why are you going to do the stuff that does NOT work .. to make money so that you can do the things that do work to make money.
Get a website, make it credible. No matter what you do, cold calling, texting, DMM FB ads etc. etc... the credible website is a must as this will help you no matter what method you use to get leads. The website makes you credible. Period.
