Most land investors don’t fail because of mailers, data, or markets.
 They fail because of leadership.

In this episode, I break down the six unsexy mistakes that destroy land businesses when they scale — and how to avoid them.

Here’s what we cover:

• Why your culture will make or break your team (and how to actually build it)
• The rookie mistake of scaling out too fast (and how I blew up a department)
• The trap of focusing on the wrong “busy work” instead of revenue
• How weak onboarding kills performance before it even starts
• The simple feedback loops that keep standards high
• The 85/15 Rule I use to stay focused and avoid “priority whiplash”

If you want your business to grow without you holding every single string, this episode is your roadmap.

• How to hire in the right order so you buy back your time
• The shift from growth to capital allocation that changes everything

Clay Hepler shares the raw truth behind owning 80+ rental properties—and why it left him broke, burnt out, and stuck. In this candid interview with Ajay Sharma (founder of Land Closers Academy), Clay reveals the pivot that changed everything: land investing.

This episode is a full breakdown of how Clay rebuilt from the ground up—scaling to a 25-person team, launching cold calling systems, and projecting $3M+ months in pipeline profit.

What you’ll learn:

• Why more doors ≠ more cash flow (and what Clay learned the hard way)
• How to scale a lean land operation without burning out
• Clay’s hiring funnel, sales systems, and leadership stack
• The emotional and tactical roadmap to go from stuck at $30K/month to building real momentum
• Why cold calling is crushing every other land marketing channel in 2025

If you’re stuck between deals or ready to scale, this is the behind-the-scenes look at what it actually takes to build a real business in the land space.

In this training, I break down why most land marketing is DEAD in 2025 — and the exact 5-step system we’re using to generate 4–6X ROAS in our land business.

If your cold calling, mail, or PPC campaigns are underperforming…

If your lists are broad, and your cost per deal is rising…

If you're playing “spray and pray” and hoping deals fall out the other side…

This episode will change the way you market forever.

✅ How to pull targeted data (not the same public stuff everyone else is using)

✅ Why most land investors burn cash on vague, unfiltered lists

✅ How we increased a client’s ROAS from 1.8X to 5.3X in 90 days

✅ The KPI dashboard I use weekly to double down on what’s working

✅ And why tracking inputs over outputs is the real game-changer

In this training, I walk you through the exact blueprint I used to build a 7-figure land flipping business — starting from zero.

My wife had just lost her job. I had no investors. No runway.

But I figured out how to flip dirt from my laptop and turn it into over **$3M+ in gross profit** — with no tenants, no contractors, and no bank loans.

If you're new to land investing (or scaling and stuck), this is the roadmap:

✅ How to pick the right market

✅ How to pull high-converting data

✅ How to comp land using the ACPC method

✅ How to price and send offers that actually get accepted

✅ How to find *good* brokers (CQT Method)

✅ And how to reinvest your profits to build lasting wealth

In this episode of the Land man Show, we're interviewing Landon Bleau 

He quit his W-2 job, flew to Europe, and built a lean, remote land investing business that pulled in over $2.2M in revenue and nearly $900K in gross profit—all in under 12 months.

In this episode, Landon breaks down:

• Why doubling marketing too fast almost broke the business
• How he bought back 20+ hours/week by delegating pricing, admin, and county calls
• The $2,000/month overseas hire that turned into a game-changing operator
• His exact weekly KPIs and marketing volume (25K–30K mailers, 150K texts)
• The #1 mistake he made self-funding deals—and how it nearly burned him

Whether you're stuck at $200K/year or just getting started, this episode is a masterclass in lean systems, profitable delegation, and intentional business design.

I just pulled a gold nugget from a recent coaching call I had with Dylan — one of my coaching clients (kudos to you, man!)

We ran a live roleplay on how to pitch when you’re wholesaling land.

Not just the surface stuff, but the real conversation you’d have with a seller or partner.

What hit me during this: Even when you’ve got the numbers dialed in, if you fumble the pitch, the deal slips through your fingers.
