Transcript:
Steven Jack Butala:
Steve and Jill here.
Jill K DeWit:
Hello.
Steven Jack Butala:
Welcome to The Land Academy Show, entertaining land investment talk. I'm Steven Jack Butala.
Jill K DeWit:
And I'm Jill DeWit, broadcasting from the Valley of the Sun.
Steven Jack Butala:
Today, Jill and I talk about, well, what if we were Land Academy members? What if I was Land Academy member? How would I...
Jill K DeWit:
Approach this?
Steven Jack Butala:
Yeah.
Jill K DeWit:
What would I focus on?
Steven Jack Butala:
Jill took a lot of notes and it's usually a much better show when she does, so...
Jill K DeWit:
Well, thank you.
Steven Jack Butala:
We'll get to that in a second.
Jill K DeWit:
Thanks.
Steven Jack Butala:
Before we get into it, let's take a question posted by one of our members on the landinvestors.com online community. It's free. Did you know that Jill and I personally instruct a handful of new and existing Land Academy members in a live class called Career Path? Hey, if this is your career, or you want it to be, check it all out. Please go to support@landacademy.com or just landacademy.com and do a little bit of self-research.
Jill K DeWit:
Career Path #4 is going on right now and we are having a ball. Okay, Dave wrote: "Hi all, my husband and I are brand new to Land Academy and getting systems set up. I had a call with..."
Steven Jack Butala:
Go ahead and say it.
Jill K DeWit:
I don't know, is that...
Steven Jack Butala:
I'll talk about it in a minute.
Jill K DeWit:
REI Conversion.
Steven Jack Butala:
That's a thing.
Jill K DeWit:
Is it Seth?
Steven Jack Butala:
No.
Jill K DeWit:
No, that's not Seth. Okay.
Steven Jack Butala:
No, I'll-
Jill K DeWit:
It's funny. Everybody takes everybody's words and they put a spin on it, because they think, "Oh, it must be Seth." No, it's not Seth. Okay, good. He mentions soon to have a website with them and, "We'll be required to have a membership to their CRM, which is Pebble, as well. I think it's a great value, but it seemed like a big commitment just to get our initial website set up and our business started. I'd love your feedback from you on if there are other suggestions for an inexpensive web developers, just to get our business website set up, or if the entire package is worth it as a starter." So he's trolling our people?
Steven Jack Butala:
No, there's no trolling.
Jill K DeWit:
Okay.
Steven Jack Butala:
He uses the Land Academy name on there. My point in putting this question in here today is this... And Jill didn't read this question until just now. So I'm actually pretty, fairly researched on it this morning. There are a lot of people popping up in this space that are in their early 20s that are good at doing websites. And I'm not so sure they're good at doing... Good at buying and selling land. In fact, I am sure they're not good at selling land... Buying and selling land.
Jill K DeWit:
That's okay. If they're good at websites. That's good.
Steven Jack Butala:
Right. There's a ton... Like, everything. There's a ton of places to go to get websites done and whatever tools that are needed, which we... Jill and I instruct all the time and talk about in all of our education, but there's a lot of places to go that are popping up now that are land specific to get these tools. Like most people, I got this question out of Discord. A lot of people had a lot of stuff to say, and I'm going to essentially repeat what just about... well, everybody said, "This is silly."
Jill K DeWit:
I was going to say they all Upworked and [Fiverr 00:02:50] and...
Steven Jack Butala:
These tools are... Well, there's just no easy button to this. If there was, and it worked, and it was relatively flawless, Jill and I would create it, and we would release it to everybody. The best way to buy and sell land is by learning. And spending a tremendous time, amount of time on research.
