How to Find a Real Estate Investing Mentor

Tuesday, April 20th, 2010

7 Comments »

Real_Estate_Investing_MentorI’ve always loved this quote from Proverbs, “As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another.”

It reminds me of the importance of having a mentor, and in our case, a real estate investing mentor.

I met my mentor, Louis Brown, about 3 months after first getting bitten by the REI bug. It was at a free seminar in Atlanta. And there were several real estate investing experts there, but Lou blew them all away in my mind.

There was an expert panel discussion that Lou dominated. His investing prowess seemed unmatched. I had found my mentor.

How to Find a Real Estate Investing Mentor

Having Lou Brown as my mentor has made ALL the difference in my investing career.

And finding the right REI mentor will do the same for you.

There’s a wise saying that you’ve probably heard before, “When the student is ready, the teacher will appear.”

Well, guess what?

How to Create Screen Capture Videos for Your REI Biz (Part 3)

Sunday, April 11th, 2010

17 Comments »

Real_Estate_Investing_Screen_Capture_VideoAlrighty, the series on using video in your real estate investing business continues …

If you’re new to it, here are the links to the first two posts:

Part 1 – Are You Using This Killer REI Marketing Tool?

Part 2 - Flip Video Tips for Real Estate Investors

Today, you’re about to learn how to use screen capture videos to get leads flowing into your biz and how you can get them done without spending a dime.

Don’t have a video camera? Can’t afford one right now?

No problemo.

You can be up and running, recording your own screen capture videos in less than 15 minutes (videos exactly like the one below).

Check ‘er out …

Action Summary

1) Download Firefox

Firefox is a web browser like Internet Explorer. The reason that you need to download Firefox is because the free screen capture video tool is an add-on to Firefox.

If, for whatever reason, you don’t want to download Firefox, a great program that tons of people use is Camtasia. It costs some moolah but is a great program. They have a free 30 day trial you can download. So, you can use it free for a month if nothing else.

2) Download the Capture Fox Add-On

This tool is super easy to use (one of the main reasons I love it!). But, there’s not much functionality.

I’m ok with that though.

3) Shoot Your First REI Screen Capture Video

Once you’re done, post it online. And use the tips from Part 2 to maximize the reach and effectiveness of your videos.

This concludes our series on video marketing in your REI biz.

May your REI videos bring you many leads.

Hope you enjoyed :-)
