The goals you set for yourself and how you’re going to get to those goals are super important to any business. For example, you can say you want your business to generate $10,000 / month but how do you actually get there? How much mail does that take? How many properties do you have to buy for that to happen and how much are you going to spend on each one? These questions are how we get to our end goal and we may not always think of these things. So join us today as we dive into this and talk about all the questions we ask ourselves on the way to our goals.

As entrepreneurs we’re constantly drawn to money making activities. That’s just who we are. When you have the drive to be your own boss you almost look at any business and wonder how you can be apart of it, make it better or scale it. That’s how our land business transformed into what it is today. We started with small desert lots and over time grew that into a company that flips million dollar deals. So when we see other lucrative opportunities that won’t distract us from our main business, we invest. That’s what today and possibly the next few shows will be about. So join us as we go down the rabbit hole of ATM investing and what this journey has been like so far. Then, if you like it, let us know because we’ve got other investments we can talk about as well.

Every few years something comes along in our niche and it seems like people really focus in on it for awhile. Whether it’s cashflow, CRMs, subdivides, etc.. they all seem to have their place in the land investing niche and some of these items have even become tools we wouldn’t want to run our business without. So what’s next? We don’t know for sure but we definitely have some ideas that we’re gonna toss around today and who knows, maybe you’ll like the idea so much you run with it. Make sure you give us some credit though!

Having patience in your business is one of the hardest traits to develop as a business owner. Nobody goes to work for themselves with the hopes of making their first bit of profit months or even years down the road. Sometimes though, that’s how it works out. When you have a new business without a pipeline you’ve got to get that up and going and in our business that means marketing, buying properties and then getting them sold. That obviously isn’t an over night thing so how do you stay motivated during this time? What are reasonable expectations? Join us today as we talk about this and other items we’ve seen not only in our business but our students too.

It happens to all us.. We start something new and we’re excited and we’re working hard, soaking up all sorts of information and joining groups and watching things grow. Then at some point we slowly stop doing those things as much and just settle in to whatever it is we’re doing. In business, this can be detrimental to your continued success so how do we handle this? Join us today and see how we feel about all this.

Here at Casual Fridays we pride ourselves on the trust we’ve built in the land community. That trust isn’t built over night and it’s not easy to do but we’ve accomplished it by going above and beyond on things like Project One and Two, throwing over the top live events (pay attention today because the next one may be coming up) and many other ways that we share our knowledge and time. Doing all of this has grown our business in ways that we never could’ve imagined and as we talk about this today, it isn’t to toot our own horn, it’s to hopefully shed some light on how you should be running your business. True growth comes from opening up and not being afraid that you’ll lose something by having others in the same arena as you. So join us today as we talk about this and just how much it’s grown our business.

As business owners it can be really easy to fall into a rhythm where you are so focused on managing and growing your business that you forget to look how far you’ve come and really take in what you’ve accomplished. This actually hit really hard this week for us as we had one of our biggest weeks ever with land sales and the launch of the Master Class. These we’re big milestones and instead of taking a second to congratulate ourselves, we just went along with our day as if nothing had happened. That’s the exact opposite of what we should’ve done though. Did we need to throw a massive party? No, probably not but we absolutely should be doing something no matter how big or small that is. We imagine that happens a lot in your businesses too. Especially for those of you that are still working a day job, managing your family life and still growing your business on the side. So join us today as we dive into this a little and then maybe get up and do a little happy dance or something to congratulate yourself on how far you’ve come.

As our businesses expand and the number of people that we help get into this niche continues to grow, so does the number of ways that we see people take this idea. For us, we started with small desert properties that we focused on cashflow and small cash wins. Now, we’re subdividing several thousand acre properties. Is that the right way for everyone though? We know many people who love the smaller parcels that generate cashflow. We also know people that only want to focus on larger cash flips. So what’s right? Join us today as we dive into this and give you our opinion and then drop us a comment and let us know what you think.
