I've got a service business, and on the side I sell a paid coaching track. Twelve-month program, $6,000 up front or $650 a month, with a 14-day full refund window written into the…

I manage a bit under 90 doors, mostly small stuff, and about a third of my owners are first-time landlords. Same five questions every time. How do I screen, what do I do when rent…
Sat through two intro calls this week for the same price band, roughly $4k for six months of group coaching plus office hours. The first guy owns a real portfolio, small multifami…
I've been talking to a coach who runs a small group program, $4,000 for six months. On the call he offered me a second option instead: pay nothing up front, and he takes 20% of th…
I signed up for a free 45 minute strategy call from someone whose videos I've been watching for a few months. Then the confirmation email came with a form. It wants my credit scor…
Sales call last week. Mastermind, $12,000 a year, monthly group calls, two in-person events, a deal-review channel. The pitch number was that 41 percent of members close a deal wi…
The thing my audience asks for most, by a wide margin, is help raising capital, and I'm putting a service business together around it. Not raising it for me, teaching them to rais…
I've got twelve hours of recorded material on how to run a rental turnover, filmed for my own crew and then cleaned up. Two people outside the company have asked for access. So no…

I manage about ninety units and I've been writing up the leasing side of it for a year, mostly because I got tired of explaining the same showing script. Enough people have asked…
I research land and holding patterns, and I've started testing what a general AI model actually gets right about my area. I asked it to walk me through a lot split, what a percola…
Eight weeks, $1,900, cap of eight seats, aimed at people buying $50k to $90k houses in towns under 5,000 people. I've run it twice. Gross across both cohorts was $30,400. Three re…
Cancelled in month eight. Writing it up because the tuition was the smallest number in the whole thing. The pitch that got me was a "strategy fit" call in week two. I had $41k liq…
I put out six short videos on how a small service business around real estate actually gets its first ten clients. Nothing fancy, phone camera, maybe 300 views total. Two people e…
I've been sitting on two tabs for about a month. Program A is run by a guy who is clearly still buying. He posts closing statements, he'll talk about a deal that fell apart last T…
A guy with a real audience, maybe 30k email list, runs a $4,000 program on buying small service businesses adjacent to real estate. He wants me to build and deliver a four-week mo…
Construction background, learning the investing side, and I've been pricing out education. In one week of looking I got quoted $997 for a course, $12,000 for what was called a men…
The questions were mine, from a live deal. How a lender is likely to treat a unit that's been vacant nine months in a DSCR sizing, what a reserve line should look like on a 1960s…
