Being an entrepreneur is hard work. There’s a million different things that need to get done and if you’re a new business you may be the only one around to do these things. You wear the hat of the Bookkeeper, the Secretary, the Acquisitions Manager, the Sales Manager, the whatever the heck you need to be do get the job done person. As your business grows you may be able to farm that stuff out but that doesn’t mean that the work slows down.

Episode 183 – Thoughts On Negotiations

Episode 183 – Thoughts On Negotiations

One of the great things about how we buy land is that our sellers know exactly what we’re willing to pay when they get our mailer. Without fail though, people are going to call you and want to negotiate on the price you’re offering. It’s only human nature so I don’t blame them. The thing about our business is that we’ve already done the hard work up front and have made offers on what we believe is our final price so do we even have room to negotiate? Or even better, do we want to negotiate? The whole point of blind offers is to cut that part of the business out right? Clearly this is up to you because you can always send more mail and people will accept your offers but maybe we’re missing some great deals because we’re not having the conversations. So join us today as we talk about what we do and maybe you’ll have a light bulb moment that can help you out.

Today is one of those days where we each had a little different idea of what the show was gonna be! It’s a good one though because you’re gonna get two thoughts on a subject that’s really important in business and while we had different ideas on the show the point is basically the same. You can’t expect to be successful if you’re just dabbling in the game. That can mean a variety of things but you’re gonna have to listen to the show to get the rest of the message!
