Storage Wins

Chris Michaels is an Entrepreneur and a direct response marketing ninja! He's not a real estate investor, and that's actually a good thing. When it comes to marketing, many real estate investors operate in the stone age.

• How many people would get in line when they don't even know what it is for?
• People follow the leader even when it doesn't make sense to.
• How do real estate investors generate more social proof?
