Description

Yes, you read the title correctly...No, I am not talking about consumer spending!

This is advice that Travis got from his mentor when discussing his fear of spending more money on his marketing for his real estate business. So many people want to dip their toes in the water when it comes to advertising (me included!) but what if I told you that the solution was to double or triple down on your marketing spend each month? Would you do it?

Travis talks about the dozens of failed business ventures that led him finally to real estate and how he has leveraged his relationships with others in masterminds and his network of mentors and coaches to continue to scale his net worth but more importantly his knowledge and wisdom...All while enjoying life with his wife and kids and making sure he shows up for them in the best way possible and staying grounded in his strong FAITH.
