Today's interview will rock your world! Today I spoke with John Danes, the CEO, and Co-Founder of Leadjolt!
Here is more on John!
- I am a 21-year-old real estate marketing consultant. Ever since I was a child, I’ve always had a burning interest in sales and entrepreneurship. As a 6-year-old selling coupon books, baseball cards, or action figures, I was a hustler. My parents even tell stories of me walking around with a briefcase pretending to be an entrepreneur. Although I’ve always been somewhat bright, I struggled in school. I’ve always seen it as difficult to take advice from people who aren’t where I want to be, and that led up to a high school expulsion. After being expelled, I transitioned into homeschooling and starting working full time at a local grocery store. At the age of 16 I knew one thing, I never wanted to work for someone else at a crappy job. At 18, I spun up a social media management agency, with very little luck. I decided to put it on hold and try to learn from successful entrepreneurs by starting a podcast. I quickly scaled it to a top 100 business show in less than 7 months, titled The No Excuses Show. I still wanted to do marketing, and partnered up with my current partner Adam to start a marketing agency, called 99MEDIA. We were a lead generation agency for businesses in multiple different niches. We saw decent success, but after helping a real estate agent make $35k in a little under 3 months, we picked a niche and went all in. We started “RealtorDomination” in early January of 2020, and quickly were threatened by the National Association of Realtors to cease and desist, as they have a federal trademark license on the word “Realtor” uh oh. With the creative help of mentor Judge Graham, we spun up “Leadjolt” and quickly scaled it up to 180 agents in all 50 states in a little under 9 months. Now, we’ve transitioned into consulting only, and are giving agents the tools to never pay a marketing agency again. More info on our process: www.leadjolt.com
