When you set your intentions, good things happen. Alex recently got the office space he wanted, which is literally minutes away from his house and the building had a waiting list on it! How did he do it? Persistence and commitment, but most importantly, setting the intention and not giving up.

Key Takeaways:

  • Be insanely intentional about what you want and why you want it.
  • What are your needs and what are your wants? Assess your priorities and then come up with a plan.
  • Three years ago, Alex’s average profit per deal was hovering between $12 - $13K.
  • When Alex set the intention to aim for $20K per deal … Guess what … his team did it.
  • You’ve got to get buy-in from your team.
  • If you don’t ask, then you don’t receive.
  • Alex never wanted an office, but with two young children running around at home, Alex couldn’t work from home anymore and had to find office space.
  • Since Alex wanted something within a 5-minute drive, Alex started knocking on businesses’ doors looking for office space!
  • Doughnuts! Doughnuts are your friends.
  • This is the perfect example of what being insanely intentional and committed to something looks like.
  • Sometimes you gotta think a little bit outside of the box and get creative.
  • Know why you want something, set your sights on it, and then don’t take no for an answer.
  • The more nos you get, the closer you are to a yes.

Zach Ginn is 18 years old and has closed three deals within 90 days. He had to leave his high school classes just to answer calls from potential sellers. In fact, Zach only had $300 to his name when he first got started in this industry, so he knew that he had to put in sweat equity in order to make it. However, the biggest takeaway you can learn from Zach is that mindset counts and is a big part of your success in this business. When things were not looking great, Zach still had the right mindset with real estate and that helped him keep pushing forward.

  • Zach used that money and bought bandit signs with it. He put 20 bandit signs up a week.
  • How did Zach find out the difference between motivated and unmotivated sellers?
  • Motivated sellers are very easy to talk to. They’re eager to get rid of the house.
  • How did Zach come up with his own script when he was on the phone with potential sellers?
  • How did Zach finally get his first deal?
  • Zach knew he could make money in real estate. He knew it was possible and he kept having that mindset even when things weren’t looking so good.

This week’s episode is all about KPIs (Key Performance Indicators) and why you should be tracking them! If you want to reach a certain income goal but are not tracking how many leads get converted into deals, then you’re seriously flying blind. On the show, Alex offers advice as to what you should be tracking and even gives a full breakdown of what he and his team are currently keeping track of.

 

Key Takeaways:

  • Business owners tend to get caught in a money hamster wheel and their relationships and health end up suffering. This is why Alex goes to masterminds and resonates a lot with Lifeonaire’s message.
  • Let’s talk KPIs!
  • You’re flying blind without your KPIs.
  • You have to know where you stand on a daily, weekly, and monthly basis.
  • Alex talks about some of his KPIs and what they mean to his business.
  • Don’t get caught up in the number too badly, but at least set a goal and reverse engineer it.
  • You can’t always control the number, BUT you can control your effort.
  • Take your ultimate goal and divide that by your average profit per transaction; that equals how many deals you need to close.
  • What’s your conversion ratio when you get in front of a seller?
  • Do you sell your contract 100% of the time?
  • How many leads does it take to get an appointment?
  • What metrics does Alex track to help him?
  • Don’t miss this upcoming episode! Alex’s guest closed 3 deals and made $55000 in the last 3 months, and he’s only 18 years old!
