We all want insight into the future and a crystal ball to know where and how to invest. Our speaker this month is manufactured housing consultant Ken Corbin who’ll offer sound advice for where our industry may be in the next ten years.

Ken has worked with over 900 communities, retailers, manufacturers, and associations in the manufactured housing industry. His consulting firm focuses on developing business strategies for maximum sales growth, financial fitness, and long-term profitability.

He knows how to sell homes, flip parks, find financing, consult on legislation, talks the talk and walks the walk! Ken is a mover and shaker in our business, so this is a great opportunity to get expert knowledge.

As an example, he put together the largest private banking placement ever in the manufactured housing industry and developed a group of retailers and communities with that $30+ million investment.

Ken earned his MBA from the University of Michigan and is a advisory consultant to the American Graduate (Thunderbird) School of International Management. He is also on the board of trustees of Habitat for Humanity and is a Certified Management Consultant. You can check out more about Ken here.

To hear more from speakers like Mr. Corbin, we invite you to attend the National Conference for Community Owners https://secoconference.com/ taking place September 28th- October 1st, 2020 ONLINE!

Let’s face it, most people in real estate spend a lot of their time thinking about money. Not just “how much money can I make?”, but more often “where am I going to get the money for my next deal?!” Real Estate is one of the most capital intensive businesses out there and he/she who has the money wins the deal. Equity Tree is a platform built to create great experiences for investors while helping you grow your business. We have decided to do a free webinar each month for our contacts to help further us on our Mission.

For our first webinar we couldn’t ask for 2 better speakers to teach us how to really scale our business and create raving fans from our investors.

You will learn:

1. The “Laws of Irresistible Investor Attraction”

• How to brand yourself.
• Where and How to engage with your audience.

2. “Growing” your investors into raving fans!

• How to keep your investors engaged throughout the deal cycle.
• How to grow trust and brand loyalty throughout the investment process.

MHP Tribe is pleased to have Erik Cabral come to present to our group on the topic of " How to dominate branding and digital marketing to scale your investing.

You may have heard someone say that “if you have a good deal you won’t have to worry about finding the money.” Those that have been in that situation can attest to the fact that this is anything but the truth. Real estate investors are often faced with 2 problems; finding capital and finding deals. Having strong branding and digital marketing can help to solve both of those problems.

Erik Cabral is the founder of the creative agency On Air Brands; the innovative event PodMAX; the real estate investment company Mindado Investment Group; host, co-host, and producer on several shows: Entrepreneur’s Circle, Capital Hacking, OnAirBrandsLIVE, Real Estate Hackers, and True MultiFamily. With multiple businesses and partnerships, Erik is the quintessential “serial entrepreneur” who spends much of his time helping others grow their businesses, brands, and reputation.

What to Expect:

• Why is branding and digital marketing important as a real estate investor?

• What are the KEY STEPS WHEN BUILDING A BRAND?

• Misconceptions about branding and digital marketing

• How and WHY DO INVESTORS FAIL at branding and marketing

• PRACTICAL TIPS AND SYSTEMS you can implement to see growth as an investor

• What you are doing wrong in your marketing and how to fix it

• Real examples of how marketing has impacted investors

• WHAT YOU SHOULD BE DOING NOW to take advantage of post COVID deals

• How to automate your branding and digital marketing to scale

• Q&A session
