Transcript:
Steven Butala:
Steve and Jill here.
Speaker 2:
Hello.
Steven Butala:
Welcome to the Land Academy Show: Entertaining Land Investment Talk. I'm Steven Jack Butala.
Speaker 2:
And I'm Jill DeWit broadcasting from not so sunny Southern California.
Steven Butala:
Today Jill and I talk about how one Land Academy member nets 75000 bucks a month.
Speaker 2:
You know, I would first like to start with what we just talked about 30 seconds before we rolled. It's a blustery day. You don't like the sweatshirt look?
Steven Butala:
Oh, Jill, you don't have to explain. You of all people do not have to explain one thing to like anybody on this planet-
Speaker 2:
I like my little-
Steven Butala:
Least of all-
Speaker 2:
Cozy sweatshirt.
Steven Butala:
Me.
Speaker 2:
Well, here's the thing [crosstalk 00:00:40]
Steven Butala:
I was just asking you about what it's all about.
Speaker 2:
Well, I'm wearing a sweatshirt because it's a cold day, and I like to be all comfy in a sweatshirt, however, you could still say I have a butt and a waist because I'm wearing the right jeans, I hope.
Steven Butala:
You have a butt and a waist?
Speaker 2:
Yes. You can still see it. That's the thing if you wear ... What's really bad is if you wear a long sweatshirt, or a long sweater, and then like no one can see anything. You're like a big ball of fluff, and then like little legs stick out like leggings. That I don't like that look, and I won't do that look.
Steven Butala:
Like you just lose all shape?
Speaker 2:
Yes.
Steven Butala:
These are things that men have ... It's never crossed a man's mind.
Speaker 2:
Cinder block on sticks don't want that look. Anyway.
Steven Butala:
Oh my gosh. How we veer so far from land so quickly.
Speaker 2:
Well, you know.
Steven Butala:
Anyway. This topic today, very briefly, this is a real story, we're not going to use any names or locations or any of that stuff, about a member that we have who was actually at the live event, and a pretty lengthy presentation about-
Speaker 2:
Oh, great. Now, you're narrowing it down.
Steven Butala:
His business model. And the reason that I'm bringing it up today is because no ones forgotten it. It's constantly this undertone of-
Speaker 2:
True.
Steven Butala:
"Well, I want to be like X. I need to do more like X. Member X has all this figured out." So, I want to kind of get into this, and figure out if it's actually a unicorn, what's real about it, what's unreal about it. I mean, and I'll tell you it's 80% positive, and we'll talk about the positive and negatives, but we still have to do deals. It's not like you're choosing to do ... I'll describe his business model in great detail.
Speaker 2:
I'm sure you will.
Steven 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.
Speaker 2:
Aroldo ... I can never pronounce this name, I'm sorry.
Steven Butala:
You got it.
Speaker 2:
Aroldo asks, "For our first mailer should we keep the letter exactly as the download on Offers2Owners? I think it's all great especially for the sentence that says, 'We are partners with landstay.com who have been in business for 20 plus years, and have successfully completed 10s of thousands of purchases like this one.' I think that would help us with credibility. My gut just tells me to keep it simple and to just send it as it is to make it easy on myself. Any thoughts?"
Speaker 2:
Look at that. Well, I see one of our members on here already weighed in. Member and moderator Kevin said, "Aroldo leave it the way it is until you know enough to change for some reason. In three years I've only made a couple of very minor changes."
Speaker 2:
There you go. There's something to be said with aligning yourself. Well, A: Transparency. Number one, you never want to say it's you if it's not really you, and if you really are aligned with us,
