Brilliant idea. Hope it gets some legs!  

A little over 2 months ago I was barely at 100.

Now, as I write this, I am at 2914 and growing.

What am I talking about?

Well my instagram following of course.

Ever since about summer last year I have almost kind of swore off most social media as total time waster...

If you are a friend of mine (which I am assuming you are since you opened my email) then you may already know my distaste for facebook completely.

You may remember the 2nd or 3rd time I deactiveated my account... only to have to reactivate it because so many sites make me register or use the facebook login.

So instead I was forced to have to completely just ignore it instead.

Then I started working with a client (who has a brilliant training in the works of a fantastic passive profit system he is building) and I thought it would be a good idea to "test" how well I could use his system with my completely dead instagram account.

So I studied up.

I hit the books

Learn some things

Tested others...

Found the ones that were working and started automating and systemizing it.

NOw, not only is it a free source of getting automated new leads and clients...

My following has started to grow exponentinally.

Like I have hit that "tipping point" and now I am growing by 10-40 new followers a day whether I log in, post or not.

Crazy. I am thouroughly shocked at how well it has been working and what it has changed for my business.

So I just noticed that I am close to hitting another milestone of 3000 followers from just 100 when I started this.

YES... all REAL followers and REAL people. I see no value in buying fake followers like I heard people do. I want to work with real people I can help (or entertain) and bots do not fulfill that for me.

So I just wanted to know if you could help me hit 3000 by following me on instagram.

If I hit 4000 I think I will have to make a training to walk you through everything I did and am doing in as little as 15 minutes a day to grow like this.. and have fun at the same time (you will see what I mean if you view my profile)

But since I sort of agreed not to release this before my clients training comes out (would not be right to be in direct competition with my members right? ) I will only share privately with you if you become a client as well.

Of course you will be required to sign a Non Disclosure agreement first.

If you are ok with that and you would like an extra 70-280 new free clients per week, then sign up for a call and lets talk

If it is a joint venture... what are your plans with the property?

you had me at "obviously something I would not be interested in doing for good"

So I have always been the "oddball" in my family. The "free thinking" if you will. I have NEVER believe in doing anything because you "have to". or supposed to. Life is short. Every day is not guaranteed. You should spend any of the precious moments doing what you don't enjoy doing.

That is how most of the world get stuck in the vicious cycle of doing a job they hate, wishing for the weekend or the miserable 2 weeks vacation a year... then back to do it all over again and wait for next year. Are we really meant to only enjoy 2 of the 56 weeks a year just for some promised happiness if you save and work hard.. someday?

Why can't we have both? Why cant we enjoy every single day ... AND still work for something great. 

So... it is not clear if you are excited about the job because of the job... or because of the $26 an hour.

But no one could pay me enough to spend 8 hours a day doing something I don't enjoy.  This is coming from someone who walked out on a 6 figure corporate job after they just gave me another raise. that was 8 years ago and I have never looked back since

If you think you will enjoy the job and the experience... I say take it. If the job sounds like ... just a job and you are doing it only or the money... I would say absolutely never!  You will only resent it later

Thanks for the reply. Now I can stop searching lol

 I have the same question. I have several uses for my blog feed. Any way to access the rss for our own individual feeds?

We are looking to grab this property at an upcoming auction.

Home ARV is Upwards of $500k

Starting bid of course will be ridiculessly low. Home needs minimum repairs. $30k at most if we want to do full updating.

Confident the bidding will be less than $200k. 

We plan to immediately sell on the Market. Already have agent and listing ready. Agent already has potential buyer.

Pretty slam dunk deal. We should be in, out and sold within 60 days max.

Willing to pay premium points for the right person.

7 days to produce funding after the close of the Auction. Is this something you may be interested in? Please contact me

yeah I also agree with what most are saying. If they are doing deals they have proof of funds letters on command as you will NOT have been the first person to ask for it. It is almost expected as a given. This is business. Not personal. Anyone who makes a fuss and responded to me like that would immediately be off my list. I hate working with cocky "don't you know who I am" type investors. And sadly there are quite a few. Bottom line is they need you more than you need them. If it is a good deal, buyers are everywhere. Everyone is fighting for those killer deals that you hold. Remember that. YOU are in the position of authority. If he doesn't want to play and just wants to beat his chest... move on. Not the type of person you want to be working with long term anyway. Just my opinion anyway.

 Yes. I have not been 100% as in the past... but still doing good. When you work for yourself, it is easy to let it consume you. Feels like everything is an emergency and you end up fighting fires from the time you get up until the time you go to sleep. Waking up to 100 emails, missed calls, texts and endless notifications of things that are "urgent"... has led me to this...

I actually have to turn off my internet and put my cell and tablet on airplane mode. And I refuse to turn them on until I 

1. 1. do my morning reading - Usually something in personal development and mindset. Sometimes real estate stuff. Currently Reading Altucher's "Choose Yourself" and Gary Keller's "The One Thing".  Yes, Tim Ferriss says one book at a time. But that is the beauty of having a kindle with over 500 books - You can choose whatever you are in the mood for at the time. Works for me.
   
   2. Coffee. Must have coffee
2. 3. Quick workout or walk with my wife and dogs. 

Nothing happens until these 3 are done.  That has been my routine for over a year now and you will be surprised how many of the "emergencies" have just seemed to work themselves out. Got tired of waking up in a panic when I see all the notifications. I'm sure it is only me who has this problem though lol.

Daily habit of reading!  I dont know the exact numbers or where i heard this, but something like if you read 2 books a month on your given topic, in less than a year you will be above 95% and will be considered and expert!
