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.
