    Email Marketing Software Solutions!?

    MARKETING 
    Thanks all for the input. Anybody have any experience with nuevomailer or other similar software solutions? Seems like a more cost effective alternative to traditional email marketing services for large lists. Also does anybody have any thoughts on the pros & cons of self hosting.

    Email Marketing Software Solutions!?

    MARKETING 
    Thank you for the recommendations. I will definitely be looking into sendgrid. After reviewing our current analytics we believe we have had some issues with delivery and have recently had several clients requesting to be added to our list even thought they are already on it.

    Email Marketing Software Solutions!?

    MARKETING 
    Sorry should have provided some clarity. I am in the commercial real estate space. We use email to supply deal flow to our clients. 1-2 emails per week is actually exceptionally light for what we do, often receive 10+ emails a day from others, and in many cases is the preferred means of delivery...

    Finally found a mountain to start my fastlane journey, Stocks

    EXECUTION 
    Did the same thing in College. Started with close to $10k and began trading options. Did what I considered to be amazing, about 20% in 6 months, but came to the realization that I lacked sufficient capital to make a reasonable rate of return for time invested. Left the trading game for a...

    Where Can I Find Better Quality Friends?

    HOT! PEOPLE 
    Time to move. If you describe where you live as a dump it's time to get out. Seattle might not be your answer. There are lots of successful people everywhere. I have friends who live in rural towns that work with billionaires because rich people like large pieces of land. Step 1 Figure out...

    Let's Build a Spec House!

    EXECUTION 
    This is the part where most investors would write a heated emotional post about how they hate contractors. They would feel better and nothing would get done. Congrats on the progress, I am sure you will do well.

    Opportunity or waste of time?

    REAL ESTATE 
    100% Agree. In fact building something might actually devalue it. Adding a slab of concrete that does not meet their specs would simply cost more for them to demo. The thing you need to understand is what do they want to do with it. Do they have a project that they need that land for or are they...

    Star Wars, Force Awakens (Thought it Sucked, Spoilers Quarantined)

    OFF-TOPIC 
    I agree with a lot of the points made but in the end I did like it, but mostly because of the nostalgia. If you look at it from solely a plot line it is pretty weak and is all about the event vs. the struggle/story. Contrast - Luke struggled for decades on the same planet to become a good...

    Current Biz Owner: Buying Another Biz vs Real Estate

    EXECUTION 
    I do not know your real estate market but I think this statement is a bit misguided. As mark twain said there's lies, dam lies, and statistics.

    Freezing up during cold calls

    Call the guy back. Seriously, call him back and launch back into your script. My bet is that he wont even remember you. It will be in that moment that you realize that the stakes for screwing up a call are quite a bit lower then you and your mind are making them out to be. Worst case (actually...

    Rent-to-own/Lease-option experts: What do you think about this chart?

    REAL ESTATE 
    My experience with rent to own, at least as a business strategy,is the locations are often in rough neighborhoods and tenant friendly states where in many cases it can be easier to foreclose then evict. The strategy is this, buy extremely cheap, fix up, then rent to own at a price point where...

    Call landlords bluff on rent increase?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    All depends on the market. In my neck of the woods if you call their bluff be ready to move. That being said even in a tight market there are always opportunities for creative folks to find deals. I agree with this, your pipeline can never be too full, meaning with ample alternatives your risk...

    Struggling with ADHD? Triple Your Productivity in 30 Days!

    MINDSET AMA 
    Great thread, I think this personality trait is relatively common among entrepreneurs etc. I always thought I had ADD/ADHD since I was a kid. Over the years several of my teachers made comments etc. but my family did not want to put me on meds which I agreed with. I have always designed my...

    How do I tell him?

    As the saying goes there is no free lunch in business and this is the same in Real Estate. I believe that "No Money Down" is sort of a misnomer because somebody always has to bring money to the table it just might not be yours. In my personal experience there are a few key components to real...

    What's your job ? What do you do?

    HOT! 
    Another area you might want to look into is sales. Its another profession that usually only cares if you can do the job, ie closing. If you are good you can potentially make a lot of money and might be a great fit if you are really good at social relations with other people.
