Today's episode is an interview with a Twitter follower from New Haven, CT the Original Bambo, Joseph Massaro. Joseph have been giving us a lot of Twitter love and we wanted to get to know him a little better and thought our listeners could benefit from hearing his story. Joseph has worked hard over the years in his family business and as you will hear in this episode, follows the same rule in business, being of service to others. He credits much of his success through rough markets to his ability to work hard and treat everyone with respect and providing them with opportunities to succeed themselves. The picture from this post was when Joseph went to meet with @GaryVee for the Daily Vee episode 494 which he talks about in this interview. We hope you enjoy the interview as much as we enjoyed having him on the show. Be sure to join the conversation on Twitter @BusinessBrosPod and let @TheRev1376 know how he did. I'm sure he would appreciate the twitter love. You can also get some free live coaching sessions on our Facebook page @SiasFirst or schedule your free coaching call by clicking on the link below.

How do I Get Started

iTunes Shout Outs:

Ryzhon: “I like how you were saying there are going to be things you don’t want to do but you have to do and when you said get rich slower if you can’t get rich fast. I felt that”

Jorge Macias: The podcasts are the best for learning business techniques and really helpful for my future. If you want to be successful you should listen to this podcast because it will definitely help you become way more successful.

Real Estate Agents, wouldn’t it be nice if you had a system where you knew exactly what you needed to do every single day?

Not only that, wouldn’t it be nice if you have a system where you could predict how much money you were going to make month in and month out?

Where you no longer dealt with Cash Spurts and instead you had a system that gave you consistent monthly CASH FLOW?

That is exactly what we teach our Real Estate Agents to do. You ARE a small business whether you like it or not and businesses do not succeed with cash spurts. It is not predictable and it is not scalable.

You got into this business to find financial freedom and that comes from being rich, where your money works for you and you no longer work for your money.

Our coaching clients are trained to do exactly that with practical and tactical information to help them build a business with predictable cash flow.

Today’s show topic comes from a Twitter conversation about having a schedule and sticking to it. To be ready daily you need to have a calendar, filled in and scheduled, then do the work. I was talking about this on Twitter and one of our followers came up with an excuse. The thing is, like many other people, she probably didn’t think it was an excuse but of course the Business Bros called her out and helped her see the excuse for what it was. Hopefully she starts taking action and seeing results.

Her Twitter comment after telling her to use a schedule was Maru Torres‏ @MaruTor36199903 “I got that part down. It’s the motivation that doesn’t always flow to actually complete the tasks on my planner” BTW: Thanks for all the Twitter Love

Motivation to start will never be there. Very few people wake up motivated and ready to go. Maru Torres is the reason for today’s episode so I wanted to thank you Maru for your twitter interactions and I’m so glad you are honest, it truly helps us address common beliefs so that other benefit from them too.

In this episode we talk about the Moo-Bah effect. It's a concept we have talked about for a long time but was brought back into our lives by none other than @TheBrainyBiz Melina Palmer on her podcast and she describes it as #Herding. Thank you Melina for all your content, it is always so informative. We take the concept and talk about in through the lenses of Real Estate and personal investing. We hope you find it valuable and remember to schedule your FREE COACHING CALL by using the link below. You can also join the conversation on Twitter @BusinessBrosPod just like @Emeroyb and @thejerlanishow have to get some of your questions answered. We also want to thank MLL07 and Carlos Zazueta for their iTunes reviews, we love the support we are getting from our listeners and are very thankful you are finding value in our podcast. You can also catch us live on Facebook @SiasFirst and get in on some live coaching sessions. Remember first 5 to schedule a coaching call below get a 1 on 1 with the Business Bros so don't delay.

Some more comments about @thebrainybiz content on #herding

Today’s topic is called Follow Me, Moo-Bah

People are too quick to follow what the herd is doing and rarely step back and think, how is that helping me achieve my goals?

In Real Estate, many agents are following the herd and working on their brands, their logos, their teams, their websites their drip email campaigns because they hear the industry telling them that it is what they should be doing.

They waste a lot of money buying leads, even worst buying buyer leads thinking that it will solve all their problems.

They are looking for that one magic bullet to get them to the glory land!

Only to find out at the end of the year that they are broke. They failed to focus on their business’s purpose which is to make a profit. They lost sight of why they got into Real Estate in the first place and fell prey to the easy button.

Premier coaching is here to help get you back on track. We are a no BS solution for you. Our podcast, is focused on giving you the cold hard truth and only the truth about what you need to do to be successful and out coaching program does the the same thing but more in depth.

Plus 3 of you who schedule in November will win a Coach and Lunch event her in San Diego. So get your call today and change your profit margin for the new year.

We always tend to rubber neck accidents on the road. “Looky Loo”

Before You Die, Do This

One of our intro questions is “why did you get into business in the first place?”

You have to keep your goal in mind and focus to eventually get there, in other words you need a plan!

Real Estate treasure map is the plan that we provide to our Real Estate Agents so that they can have a clear path forward and eventually do what we all want to do which is retire by making it rich

Remember that Rich is when your money works for you and you no longer work for your money!

That’s the goal but more specifically, what does that look like to you?

In the show notes there is a link called FREE COACHING CALL for REAL ESTATE AGENTS. I know you may not have time to listen to the whole show but be sure you schedule your FREE COACHING CALL, you can do it right from your mobile phone.

The first 5 people to schedule will get a free live 1 on 1 coaching call with either James or myself but schedule fast before those spots are gone.

Also, if you schedule in November, you are entered for a Lunch and Coach event that we will be hosting in December. 3 Luck people will get a Coaching Session with lunch included! How amazing is that and for FREE!

Back to the show! Do this before you die

Look, we are alive for a short period of time and dead for a very long time.

What do you want out of life? Fame, fortune, comfort, travel, off the grid?

What does it take for you to get there?

Requires that you have a plan.

It requires that you do a little math.

It requires that you set a SMART goal.

It requires that you take action

You should seriously take some time and go talk to someone in their late 80’s and 90’s.

They will share some wisdom with you that you should never take for granted

They will also share with you their biggest regrets

When you are old, you lose the energy and the ability and the time to do things you want to do.

If you can see regret in the eyes of someone who has no more time left, it will forever change your perspective on life and what you want to do.

Thank you Gary Vee for sharing that message

The last thing you want to have in life is regret especially when you are out of time

You got into Real Estate or Insurance or your side hustle because you wanted financial freedom but instead your playing fortnite. Really?

Better hurry because those calls get filled quickly and you want to get yours TODAY

Let’s get on with the show! Why do Salespeople Suck

Perspective is crucial. You need to understand that stereotypes exist because there is some truth to them.

Crummy people that give Salespeople a bad name

Politicians

Lies or bend the truth

Tell people what they want to hear

Make promises that they don’t deliver on

Timeshare Sales People

Pushy sales people

You know you should say no but you say yes anyway

The incentives are too good to pass up and you feel trapped or obligated

Sleazy Car Salesman

Buying a lemon

Overpriced and taking advantage of under qualified individual

You are NOT THAT

You strive to be of service to others

You find solutions to problems for your clients

You under promise and over deliver

You have a proven system (or you should)

You prequalify all leads

You are a professional and have pride in the service you provide

What are people afraid of?

Labeled a “Sales Person”

Negative stigma

Ego holds us back

Being pushy

The reason they don’t follow up

We only work with people who need our help anyway

Not succeeding

Requires you to embrace being in sales

Embrace communication with your clients or potential clients

Getting out of your own way

Salespeople are the highest paid because they solve the most problems. Good sales people are held in high regard because of their compassion and willingness to help.

Must be 32 to buy a home

According to Housewire.com the average age of a first time home buyer is 32

They earn $75,000 per year

Put down 5% on $190,000

41% of them carry student loan debt with a typical balance of $29,000

DTI must be less than 40%

Can’t get a mortgage if you leave college with one.

Why is college so expensive?

It’s easy to get financing, so they raise the price

Is everyone meant to go to college

No, but that is what they want you to believe

It helps, yes but you should plan ahead and figure out a way to pay for it yourself.

Payment options

Pay as you go cash

License and sell

Start with JC

Join military for 4 years then got to school GI bill

Buy with a partner

Roommates to help pay the mortgage

Benefit from appreciation over time

Set ground rules for future life (kids, marriages etc)

Buy out of state

Prices are less and learn to increase your income

Build your portfolio before you buy your own home.

Be sure to stop by iTunes and leave us a 5 star rating and review like Adora Hudson and Phoenix Desser did. We really appreciate the support and every review and rating helps us reach more people. Thank you very much for your support! In this episode we discuss the relevance of going to college from a career standpoint and an economic stand point. We layout the different income amounts you could earn based on your education level. We also give you a number of ideas that will allow you to pay for college rather than taking out student loan debt.

Shout outs! Adora Hudson: The Business Bros are doing something that not many podcasters are doing right now. Making content that is relevant and extremely important, and breaking it down into simple ideas people can remember and apply to their lives. Thank you so much!

Is college the way to go anymore? SmartAssets.com

Less than High school - $25,636 - UE 8%

Doctorate Degree - $84,396 - UE 1.7%

Why do we go to work anyway?

Lifestyle, Vacation, cars, boats, homes etc

Do you want to work forever?

Of course not

What does retirement look like to you?

Mobile home, RV, condo, house, mansion?

CA, OH, TX, NY?

What is that going to cost you on a monthly basis?

That is the goal. That is the end game. THAT’S WHY YOU WORK.

Now that you have a number in mind, how soon do you want to get there?

35, 45, 55, 65, 75 etc?

Pay yourself first! As much as possible and as often as possible

It’s not your bosses job to make you rich

The more you money you put to work for you today, the faster you reach “RICH”

Where your money works for you and you no longer work for your money.

The Side Hustle

Not your bosses job to make you rich

You work hard, why are you working so hard for someone else?

J.O.B - live below your means, store money, invest and increase your means

Side hustle money is your money. DON’T GIVE IT TO ANYONE ELSE.
