Kendric  BP is pretty much anti self promotion.. that's the issue. 

You Never Know Who You’re Talking To Never assume that someone is not worth promoting yourself and your services to.

Therefore, it’s important to treat it as your most important promotional activity when scheduling your day.

With Pre foreclosures and Free and clears the two top.If you have a limited advertising/promotion budget it might be wise to start with direct mail activities.

It might work for BP as a series of articles rather than one big doc.Or, you can upload it to an outside site - say google docs or similar - and then post a link to that under the "promote your site" forum.

Which isnt saying it doesnt produce only thats its expensive1) MLS2) Assigning3) Door Knocking except for 6 specific doors4) Sweat marketing... ie anything you have to do personally to promote yourself.5) Doing NOTHINGBTW I have spent 600 grand in a single year advertising and track everything...Happy huntingMichael

We used to have about 250 members but we are now down to about 100 members.Most of the members that are active real estate investors run their own ads in the newspaper and get their own leads.Sometimes I wonder if the reason that Gurus promote going to local REIA groups is that they know that they have a larger audience to sell to.

Andrew,As long as you aren't promoting your own ads, it's usually OK to post links that answer a poster's question.

I get annoyed with the guru-motivational speaking-hustler types that give you half an answer and make you pay for the next half, any guru that promotes a cruise ship seminar or bootcamp for thousands of dollars, guru's who don't actually invest in real estate for their main source of income, guru's who are regurgitating the same material and selling each other's stuff through affiliate programs, and such.I would follow my mentor's guidance and direction, master it, then conquer the world.If I made $20k a month then I would position myself as owner, not owner operator.

Not sure how I got negative points probably deserved it at some point, I am more careful now in how I promote myself online at forums.I did not post rates here since if I did then I would look like I am blatantly promoting myself so, chose not to disclose for fear of negative feedback.Feel free to contact me and I will share the terms and rates, it just seems this was not the place to advertise my rates for my lenders.I am not a direct lender but am a independent financial loan broker specializing strictly with hard money, private money, and now transactional funding as I am always on the hunt for new sources of money since money has a funny way of running out with lenders, so I am always on the lookout for new lenders who will fund loans to my prospective borrowers seeking loans.
