I'll probably borrow from him for our next flip.Just keep the old rule in mind: you have 2 ears and 1 mouth... use them proportionally.

When I stopped, I was much happier, but of course I had to fill the void with real relationship building and real marketing.I also noticed by discontinuing the fake laughs and BS, people noticed I was being true to myself, and my realtionships were more meaningful (and yes, meant more referrals).Don't give in to gurus.

I call my credit cards every six mouths and ask limit increases.

That gives them more options and makes them happier.

I have been doing bandit signs, yellow letters, cold calling, CL advertising, car magnet advertising and word of mouth. 

Most of our sales have been simply word of mouth up to this point.

Investing out of state is a scary thought for the first timer, but you'll force yourself to be a better investor if you can invest without having to be on site.I live in WA where cash flow is scarce so I headed to the Midwest to invest and couldn't be happier!

In 30 years I NEVER advertized my work, never had to, it was all word of mouth.

I have a lot of renters coming as return guests, by word of mouth, or from Facebook, in addition to Airbnb and VRBO.

The less they know about you, the happier you'll be.
