Cheat Sheet
Resources
- As a business owner, you need to know a little about a lot. Meaning, you have to be knowledgeable about the many facets of your business:
- Marketing, Sales, Operations
- Frugality: Keep track of every dollar spent
- Once your business grows and your systems are improved, outsource tasks that are too cumbersome for you to handle alone.
- Recommended resources:
- Click2mail: Online mailing service for letters, postcards
- Listsource: Build a list only
- Reipro: Obtain a list and mail it out
- Propstream: Real estate data
- Batchdriven: Drive for dollars virtually
- Streak: CRM software that integrates with Gmail
- Vacant Property Tracker
- Know your KPIs, track them, and work toward scaling up:
- What is your average profit per deal?
- What is your cost per lead?
- What is your cost per deal?
- What are your leads to closed contracts?
- What is your profit margin?
Incoming Leads
- Sellers will call you possibly any hour of the day. Let the calls go to voicemail:
- Call them back at your convenience using this voicemail script.
- Store all email correspondence from Craigslist into a Google folder.
- Create two folders: To Do List Folder, and Waiting List Folder.
- Update Vacant Property Tracker.
- Set up a Streak account, install the Chrome extension, and create these stages:
- Leads, Contacted, Comps, Make offer, Sell property, AB contract, BC contract, Close won, Waiting room, Closed lost
- Box, Lead source, Priority, Days in stage, Last email from
- Call back anyone who appears to be a lead and use the Seller Lead Script as a model or create your own.
- If you’re doing 4+ deals a month, you’ll need a CRM (Flowlu), but use GSuite for now.
Lead Generation
- According to your budget and time, use any of these list builders:
- Obtain a list of 5000 leads so that you can generate two or more deals per month on a consistent basis.
- To find the most popular zip codes and to buy a list, use Listsource.
- Here’s an SOP on “How to Build a List.”
- Once you have a list built, you will send out letters to the list based on your budget:
- Handwritten/ typed notes, yellow letter copy, yellow letter copy 2, yellow letter copy 3, postcard, postcard 2, postcard 3, post card front & back.
- Use yellow letters for low cost marketing methods, such as driving by a property, or properties found on Craigslist.
- Mail out postcards for high cost marketing methods, such as your list of 5000 every 30 to 45 days to potentially close on one deal a month.
- Handwritten/ typed notes, yellow letter copy, yellow letter copy 2, yellow letter copy 3, postcard, postcard 2, postcard 3, post card front & back.
Lead Demonstration
- If your marketing budget is less than $1,000, then create a smaller list and mail out fewer letters every 30 days for 6 months to that same list.
- If your marketing budget is $1,000, use Reipro to build and mail out letters to your list:
- Create an account with Reipro, select Leadpro to get your list, enter your filters and save your search.
- After you create your list, choose the Marketing tab and create your campaign for 1000 leads.
- Order your postcards, enter the mailing date, select a template and place your order.
- In time, you’ll want to clean up your list since 10% of mailings will not reach the owner. You can learn to do so by following these instructions: “Wholesaling, How to Scrub a List.”
- Upload your list to Click2mail in a CSV format for mailing.
- Create reminders in your OP to mail out postcards to your list every 4 – 6 weeks, and continue to update your spreadsheet; create a new list every 6 months.
- For any postcards that return to you as undeliverable or owners saying: “Leave me alone,” go into your Reipro account and scrub those addresses from your list.
- This will reduce your marketing costs.
- You can add addresses to your list as well.
