GOLD! HOT! EXECUTIONPutting all money into AI now kind of feels like when @MJ DeMarco said in TMF that he put all his few hundred thousand he made from his company into tech stocks and went bust. We’re probably in that same kind of times right now at some point- mikecarlooch

GOLD! HOT! EXECUTIONIve been thinking through what you’ve said here a lot - some thoughts i had for those of us on the way up: When you already have money, the “paycheck pot” is your low-risk portfolio, which generates you income. Since we dont have enough money yet, this isn’t very viable to us. When we are on...- mikecarlooch

GOLD! HOT! EXECUTIONThat's a great question! I haven't looked into that. Have you done any other marketing for renters that showed good results? Would be interested to hear your experience of what works- mikecarlooch

GOLD! HOT! EXECUTIONThat's exactly right. That feels like the direction I've been looking for. The reason this resonates with me is because in the company I work for now, I literally witness their entire operation first hand. Obviously I'm in charge of the entire leasing system that I created (automations/sales...- mikecarlooch

GOLD! HOT! EXECUTIONThank you AF A couple questions. I'm curious to know why you say that you don't plan to bring in-house leasing agents until hitting 5,000 units. How are your leasing agents incentivized? Do they have paid commission? Do they run the ads for you, or do you feed them leads? Curious how you guys...- mikecarlooch

GOLD! HOT! EXECUTION@Kevin88660 here is some of them. Some of the other ones that I have set up include the following: Since my virtual assistant and AI agent that texts renters is getting in contact with thousands of people, that means that there are many, many people booking tours Sometimes there are 70 to...- mikecarlooch

GOLD! HOT! EXECUTION@Dark Water and I were chatting about how an apartment broker could scale by having other agents working under them leasing out a landlord's apartment portfolio without charging a broker fee and being paid directly by the landlord to do so. Would the business model of hiring an outside...- mikecarlooch

GOLD! HOT! EXECUTIONEngaging @Antifragile because I think he owns somewhere in the range of 500 to 1,000 units, but I'm not sure. If someone came to you with a proposition like this, would you accept it?- mikecarlooch

GOLD! HOT! EXECUTIONI have thought about this, but the question that always comes up is: if a landlord is going to hire me to put an agent inside of their business to show apartments, why would that agent not want to just take the full commission? Why would he give me a piece of it? I guess what would make it...- mikecarlooch

Going Fastlane Like My Life Depends On It.. (continued)
GOLD! HOT! EXECUTIONYes, I agree with you, but I will be clear: I have 4 employees overseas and 5 to 10 AI agents that automate everything besides the actual showing of the apartments. The numbers I am doing would not be possible without all of that. If I got another agent to do it for me, I would need to cut my...- mikecarlooch

GOLD! HOT! EXECUTIONI just went back and read the entirety of chapter 48 in Unscripted. From what I understand, you are explaining in the chapter that buying stocks for appreciation without having a dividend payoff is a coin flip, kind of like gambling. And you are saying to buy mostly individual stocks that...- mikecarlooch

I did not pay for quarterly taxes in 2025 because I was uneducated, but this year, definitely!

GOLD! HOT! EXECUTIONThanks Kevin! I am technically not employed by the company. I am an independent contractor. They pay my business LLC. I have to pay all of my expenses. They don't pay for anything. The thing is, they spend about $50,000 to $100,000 a month on ads. The only marketing I have to do is reaching...- mikecarlooch

GOLD! HOT! EXECUTIONThank you! The difference between me at $10,000 and me at $40,000 is as follows: 1. Number one, I had no idea how to deal with thousands of leads and give all of them the same treatment, and therefore I lost out on 80 to 90% of the leads. Me at $40,000 a month has an overseas team that I pay...- mikecarlooch
