I'm a freelance Film/TV Coordinator.

The part that really bothered me the most was the high end furniture and the plasma tv on the wall, and all the high end stereo equipment.

Not to say you can't get high returns - but people fall into the HGTV world of seeing people make all this money and there is a big difference between what someone says on the TV/internet and reality.

But, there is one thing that is necessary . . . . you have to get from behind the books, the computer, the tv courses and you have to start taking actual action.

All of that makes great soundbites for tv but terrible policy.

They night be getting that from TV or something, I am not sure but Make sure you have a lot of money and several check books before you try that.

Mine was posting and reviewing when I had my coffee in the morning and then again at night when I was watching TV.

You can purchase lists with different motivations like absentee owners, 60-90-120 days late on mortgage, pre-foreclosure, delinquent taxes, water cutoff, code violation, evictions, probate, divorce, etc. and mail or cold call.Other methods are driving for dollars, door knocking, wholesalers, craigslist, Realtors, FSBO sites, expired listings, put out bandit signs, billboards, newspapers, other offline publications.You can use pay per click/adwords, motivated seller website with SEO, facebook, Linkedin, Youtube, and other forms of online and social media marketing.If you have a big budget you can do radio, TV and billboards.

I almost wish I'd have to use it so I could go stay in some nice hotel with maid service and cable TV.  

In fact, I’m experienced enough and knowledgable enough at it that I run the department.If people would rather go by what they see on TV or hear in their social circles, where stats are bent for a purpose, feel free.
