BACKGROUNDFor the last couple years, we've had one single private lender that we've partnered on rehab projects with.But after reading and watching Alan Cowgill's material, we decided to host a luncheon, so that we can take on more projects.After speaking with our Accountant, attorney, and speaking to the SEC, we purchased a mailing list of local Accredited Investors, and sent over 1000 of them very nice, professionally-done invitations to our luncheon.We even hired a company to man a toll free line so that we could accept RSVP's 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.The luncheon was held at a very expensive, 5-star hotel in our area.THE PROBLEMOnly one attendee showed up.We're thinking about giving it another try.
