Solving Your Own Problems (CFFL 490)
Transcript:
Jack Butala: Jack Butala with Jill DeWit.
Jill DeWit: Hi.
Jack Butala: Welcome to the show today. In this episode Jill and I talk about solving your own problems. I can't wait, actually, to talk about this.
Jill DeWit: Oh, I have a lot to say.
Jack Butala: This is a Jill show, by the way.
Jill DeWit: This is a Jill show.
Jack Butala: Hey, 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.
Jill DeWit: Okay. Steve wrote and asked, "Anyone have a marketing template they can share? Getting ready on my first one." Yay! "I'm under contract to close on my first deal and I want to start pre-marketing the property. It is recommended to systemize, and I'm wondering if anyone has a template that they use they'd be willing to share to speed me along and show me the best ways to organize the property data. Also was wondering if Snagit is the preferred way to do screen captures and any other recommendations on the latest tools for creating ads."
Jack Butala: Go ahead.
Jill DeWit: I think that the best template is the one we use in Land Pin.
Jack Butala: Exactly. That's exactly how I was going to answer this.
Jill DeWit: This is the reason we set that up. Steve is one of our members and users of Land Pin, so he has access to Land Pin. So Steve, follow that. That's really what you want to do. It gives you all the different things that you need to make ... When you post a property in Land Pin you have to check all the boxes and make sure that you don't forget to mention power, if there is any, and what kind of access there is and size of the property and your phone number. It's funny because we laugh. Some of these things you think are so basic, but we've all forgot them.
I remember one a while back before we had Land Pin one of our members was real proud. He posted this property and he had put a note there for all his peers to say, "Hey, guys. I'm not getting any calls. Can you guys look at this and let me know what you guys think?" They said, "Yeah, you forgot your phone number." That's why he wasn't getting any calls. Seriously. It was really funny. It's like, oh, whoops. There's no way for anybody to reach you to buy your property. Anyway, it's kind of funny. That's what I would say. Then use that as a template as you post at other places until ... Do you want to explain what's coming, Jack? Until the future of Land Pin. I'll fill this in. I'll let Jack know. Just kidding.
Jack Butala: Yeah.
Jill DeWit: Right now when you post on Land Pin, with the push of a button it goes to all sorts of social media. There's like five different ways there, as long as you have accounts and you link your accounts, which is really easy.
Jack Butala: Super simple.
Jill DeWit: It'll automatically post at all those places. Okay, check. Then, what's going to be added later on to Land Pin is all kinds of other things like do you want it on Craigslist? Do you want it on eBay? Do you want it on-
Jack Butala: Land And Farm.
Jill DeWit: ... Land And Farm?
Jack Butala: LandWatch.
Jill DeWit: All those things. Those things will be added later on.
Jack Butala: If, by the way, you are not a member and you're in the business and you have property you want to sell, on Monday ... This show will air on the 23rd, Friday, June 23rd.
