Replacing Yourself by Job Description (LA 1046)

Transcript:

00:00                                     Steven Butala here. Hi. Welcome to the Land Academy show, entertaining land investment talk. I'm Steven Jack Butala and Jill dewitt broadcasting from sunny southern California today. Jill and I talk about replacing yourself. Job description by job description. What real quick, what's the very first, without thinking about job description, the job that you want to replace yourself with, like ready, go transaction coordinator. Aw. How about you? Data scrubbing. Data scrubbing. Like replacing me. Like if I did this, if I was a one man show, I would quickly say that's not your, not your best talent. And I would sub that out. I gotta tell Ya. We'll get into it here in a minute. That's why we're together. I don't think you should sub that out. No, no. But I'd have a partner. Okay. So hold on a moment. Some questions, man, that scares me. You know why? Cause it's, that's my thing. I know. That's why I have you see, it's easy for me to say that cause I haven't had to get that into it.

01:00                                     Before we get into it though. Let's take a question posted by one of our members on the landinvestors.com online community. It's free.

01:08                                     Let me get, let me clarify by saying that doesn't mean I'm not involved in picking the county pricing, the offers, getting into it like that. It's just the, the meat and the potatoes. You just are, you're, you have a Ph d in excel and you just whizzed through it and you make it look fun. You don't want, can I change my answer? Sure. Sales. Thanks.

01:29                                     I can't, I'm not good at that. I mean, I'm good at it. I don't like it. I don't want to talk to people on the phone, see if they want to buy the property or post that property on all over the Internet. Those are things that need to be outsourced, I think. And I'll tell you, if you talk to probably most of our members, I think they'd probably say, what are you talking about? That's the reason why I'm successful. Like our advanced members are all on the phone. And their personality is a reason that they, they're successful. Okay.

01:54                                     So we'll talk more about this. Nice here ongoing with that. Okay. Brian Ass. Well, I'm not exactly what you call a quickstarter. After much research and trying to figure out which course I wanted to take or if I wanted to wing it, I decided to join land academy. This is nice. This is, this is good. This is a huge first step for me. I found out about vacant land a couple months ago on a podcast. I think it was bigger pockets and I was instantly interested in it and began consuming all that I could to try and find out how to get started. I researched three other courses and while all three were less money, it didn't feel good about them. Too salesy, too much upselling, too slimy feeling. This is so cool. But after listening to about a hundred episodes of the podcast, emails with land, Academy support and even Facebook stalking the other members for reinsurance, this is, wow, Brian.

02:55                                     I'm so happy. This is great. I ultimately decided land academy was the bass and I was going all in. If you know me, you will know. It was a tough decision to join. I inherently doubt everything too. I doubt that it work. I doubt myself doing it. I doubt I worry when I worry. I do research, but at some point you just have to stop doubting, worrying, and reading and you have to jump in. Tonight I jumped to say, I'm excited about this. This is giving me goosebumps. I'm like, whoa. I'm just say that I'm excited about. This is the understatement of the year. Pay for publicity and publicity. So good. Like I told a family member, I will either fail miserably or I will succeed far beyond my expectations. I now have a monitor. I now have a monetary motivation staring at me,...
