Transcript:
Steven Butrala: Steve and Jill here.
Jill DeWit: Hello.
Steven Butrala: Welcome to the Land Academy Show, entertaining land investment talk. I'm Steven Jack Butrala.
Jill DeWit: And I'm Jill DeWit broadcasting from sunny, southern California.
Steven Butrala: Today Jill and I talk about celebrating your 2018 success no matter what happened.
Jill DeWit: It is New Year's Eve. Can you believe that?
Steven Butrala: I can. I can actually. I've been looking forward to it.
Jill DeWit: Do you know what's so funny this last week to me has been so weird with we had reduced schedule in our office because of holidays. We had reduced schedule for us for other reasons.
Steven Butrala: It's been a strange season.
Jill DeWit: It's been really weird this last week. So here we are, Monday, New Year's Eve. I feel like I haven't recorded in a month. Even though it hasn't been a month. But I feel like this is really weird.
Steven Butrala: It's been a strange holiday from a works perspective. Everything else has been great.
Jill DeWit: It is.
Steven Butrala: Dramatically, dramatic slow down in inbound phone traffic.
Jill DeWit: Yes.
Steven Butrala: For real estate.
Jill DeWit: But I will say this.
Steven Butrala: Which proves my point from last week.
Jill DeWit: But here's what's not slowing down though by the way, our members are sending out mail. They are downloading data. Because here's the beauty of all of us investors right now. We have two weeks off. A lot of people from our regular day jobs, and so now's the time like let's get this mail going. And I'm go happy that people are doing it.
Steven Butrala: Yeah, I'm watching a lot of data downloads with the down time. This tells me that our group is real entrepreneurs. They have some time off from their regular job and they're using it to download data.
Jill DeWit: Killing it.
Steven Butrala: And get mail out.
Jill DeWit: Well, I'm even noticing a lot of new members. And I've talked to people personally that have just said you know what this is the time we're joining right now. I have some time off. I'm going to do it. I'm going to get through the program. I mean I talked to two guys the other day, Chris and Shane. If you're listening. And I talked to them on Christmas Eve. And actually they left a nice note. Let me say this real quick. They both left me a very nice, I surprised them too because it was me calling on Christmas Eve, they're like I thought it was going to be your team. I'm like nope. You get me. They're off. They're like oh my gosh. So we has such a nice chat. And then so they joined Land Academy. I think it was the day after Christmas. And they left me a nice note in Facebook thanking me for the call. But the point of this whole thing was is Chris and Shane were telling me that like we're just talking about, we have the time off. We worked hard for this. We want to do something else.
And they both have good jobs by the way. It's not like they need this. This is like we want to do something else. And so anyway. It's cool we have a lot of new members coming on right now. And I'm very happy.
Steven Butrala: You want to get to the show chatty?
