Episode 4: I sit down with Mike Balcom to talk about building and leading a high-performing land investing team.

Mike has scaled to 8 core team members and 25–30 data scrubbers across multiple countries. We talk about hiring overseas virtual assistants, building leaders inside your business, and creating systems that allow you to step back.

One of the most interesting parts of this conversation is how Mike uses AI in his land business. He built a custom GPT that grades sales calls, gives feedback to acquisitions reps, and helps streamline operations. We also discuss leadership highs and lows, including letting go of a loyal early team member and how to handle tough conversations with empathy.

If you're building a land investing business and want to scale with systems, leadership, and AI, this episode is packed with practical insights.
