3 Things We Learned From David Dodge
- 90% of our business is sales and marketing. In practice, our business is marketing and our product is real estate.
- There’s cash now, cash flow and cash later. Cash now is a job, cash flow is rentals and leverage using real estate, and cash later is appreciation of the assets.
- Don’t make building your buyer’s list your main goal, focus on marketing for motivated sellers.
At the start of the show, David Dodge shared on how getting a coach helped his business, and the value of finding the right person and replicating what they do. Next, we talked about how important marketing and sales is in our business and traffic and how to calculate the value of our time.
