Double Your Money in 14 Days with Jill DeWit

Jack Butala:     Double your money flipping land, not houses, in fourteen days, with my partner Jill DeWit.

Jill, welcome back.

Jill DeWit:            Hi, thank you. Happy to be here.

Jack Butala:     Thanks, I'm super excited about this show, a little bit more than most of the shows because it's a direct result, or a direct request, of a handful of our members. We did a show on the last podcast show that we had, I don't know, probably six ... no, three, four months ago.

Jill DeWit:            Mm-hmm (affirmative).

Jack Butala:     And the topic was similar but ... and it gets very high, that show specifically, gets very high rankings in iTunes, so I figure we'd scale it back a little bit, make it just a little bit more simple, and use one or two examples of stuff ... deals that you've done recently to show how we very simply double our money flipping land.

Jill DeWit:            Mm-hmm (affirmative).

Jack Butala:     And never actually go see the property.

Jill DeWit:            Mm-hmm (affirmative). Love it.

Jack Butala:     So.

Jill DeWit:            Sorry.

Jack Butala:     Hey, I've got to tell you before we get started ... it's Wednesday.

Jill DeWit:            Mm-hmm (affirmative).

Jack Butala:     And you do the Wednesday hump day special for all of our platinum members at landstay.com, which is our real real estate company. It's not like Land Academy, which isn't really a real company.

Jill DeWit:            Not a real company. Yeah, the one that pays the bills? Just kidding.

Jack Butala:     I'm on a list, you know? I'm on a list, like I was a customer. I don't know if you know that. I'm like a ... what do they call those shoppers in the mall? Secret shoppers, or something?

Jill DeWit:            Shop around my stuff? Got it.

Jack Butala:     You know, they look for shoplifters? What are they called?

Jill DeWit:            I don't think they're ...

Jack Butala:     Mystery shoppers. Mystery shoppers.

Jill DeWit:            They're not looking for shoplifters. That's not what they're ... for customer service purposes.

Jack Butala:     Oh.

Jill DeWit:            It's a positive thing, silly.

Jack Butala:     So what is a mystery shopper? Somebody that ... Tell me what a mystery shopper is. I clearly thought it was for finding shoplifters.

Jill DeWit:            No. People are mystery shoppers, and they get coupons and deals because they go in ... it's like, if I'm a mystery shopper in my own company, I want to see how they're doing. I want to see the customer experience from ... if I walked in and they ... like, my office. I walk in, hello, it's a little bit different. The goofing off stops, right? But, you know, if I walked in, in a disguise, they don't know it's me, then I can really get an evaluation of what goes on when I'm not there.

Jack Butala:     Oh.

Jill DeWit:            And how they really treat the customers, and is the customer service ... is the experience everything that we've trained them to do? Are they handling things ... themselves appropriately, and all that good stuff.

Jack Butala:     Well, I'm a mystery shopper for Land Stay.

Jill DeWit:            Okay.

Jack Butala:     And, man, you guys knocked it out of the park this week. The e-mail is really clear and concise, and the maps are awesome and ... just the whole thing.

Jill DeWit:            Dude, did you check out ... I've got to tell you, when I was putting the deal together I went, okay, let's see what today's comps are, and I went, holy moly.

Jack Butala:     Yeah, I did.

Jill DeWit:            I mean, the same subdivision. I did the math. Minus priced at thirty-one percent of the next ...

Jack Butala:     The next lowest one. That's not even the average.

Jill DeWit:            I know. I found one, it was like thirty five hundred dollars an acre. I did the math. In the same subdivision.
