At the time, he just wanted a job that offered him the opportunity to be the creative genius that he is and make good money at the same time. After working for a while with several competitors, real estate investors, and clients, Josh discovered that he had a deep passion for content marketing and video production. Putting the other aspects of real estate on the backbench, he focused on strengthening his content marketing skills, which led to him zeroing in on a sore point for many real estate industry folks, video production. Through many successes and failures, he was able to break down the mammoth tasks of successful content marketing into simple, easy to follow steps that guarantee the best ROI.With his infectious personality and headstrong drive for success, Josh connects with his target demographic and clients on a friend-to-friend level.

When it comes to creating contextual; relevant content for your target demographic is going to take you far above what you could possibly imagine when it comes to competing with your competitors. That could be several mediums like writing, video, podcast, etc. This is why knowing your target demographic is so important because if your target demographic is not listening to your podcast then don't put it on your podcast. If they're not reading articles don't put it in your articles. Creating contextual marketing to your target demographic that is relevant to them is important. The purest definition of content marketing is answering the questions of your target demographic or audience has about your industry, services, or products.Isn’t it time to create passive income so you can work where you want, when you want and with whomever you want?

If you don’t have a PDF editor on your computer, go to a little website called cloudconvert.com. Upload your file, you can edit to your heart’s content and download it. Rachel: Go read the book The Richest Man in Babylon by George S. Clason. It’s super easy to read but I love that it is very foundational, financial principles and it starts with Set thy Purse to Fattening. It is the idea of paying yourself first and if you are building that foundational savings, have it. You’re really going to set yourself, head and shoulders above anything, any other strategy. It’s really focusing on what financial principle do I want in place in my life. After you have a principle then you can have a strategy to accomplish your goals, and then look at the tactics or the financial products. That is where the book can start laying out the foundational principles for you.Bruce: My tip is, to consume everything you possibly can consume from Dan Sullivan Strategic Quotes because Dan’s whole mindset is about wanting to set your life up so that you’re in a business setting whether as an employee or as a business owner or investor. You want to set your whole life up where you’re taking your own abilities so you never need to retire. Because as Dan says, when you look at the word retire means take out of service, so you’re no longer useful.

It's a book called Happy Money by Elizabeth Dunn and Dr. Michael Norton. It's not about building wealth, it's about if you have a dollar what is the best thing you can do with it that will actually lead to more fulfillment and happiness, and it's all based on research. And The Simple Path to Wealth: Your Road Map to Financial Independence and a Rich, Free Life by JL Collins is the single-best primer I've read that matches my philosophy for how one would use the public markets to build wealth. It explains compounding interest on how we retire on passive income in more detail than I've ever read before. Another great book is The Psychology of Money: Timeless lessons on wealth, greed, and happiness by Morgan Housel, it's mental tricks about money that we can fall prey to or we can take advantage of.

Basically, the gist of this book is, there are many times as entrepreneurs we take it all to ourselves to figure out how to go-do something and when you go to the process and start doing it you keep on thinking “How am I going to do? How am I going to do it?” But what happens in large companies, when the CEO sets a vision, the CEO doesn’t say “How am I going to do this?” the CEO says, “Who within our organization's going to do this”. If you’re focusing on HOW in your business, you’re focusing on the wrong approach. Start thinking about WHO. This book lays out a foundation and a framework to help you do just that.Ravi: I usually just tell people there’s going to be a little broad, for some reason you’re not going to come pay me, you’re not going to come to pay somebody else. The majority of their answers are going to be found on YouTube, I spend probably 1 Hour a day learning something new on YouTube. I just want to challenge everybody here, whatever course you have or whatever you’re thinking you want to do, hiring someone or firing someone just look it up on YouTube and see if the answer is there for you. A lot of times you’ll see the answer you’ve been looking for.Isn’t it time to create passive income so you can work where you want, when you want and with whomever you want?

Also, the Land Geeks share some advice on how to tackle the market during an inflationary period and more.TIP OF THE WEEKTeria: My tip of the week is actually a tip that I gave during Bootcamp.  But a couple of my coaching students just over the last two weeks had been asking me about "are these Facebook pictures?", so you're marketing your properties on Facebook, and Facebook is a free platform, a great place to market and there are some new ones there. But how many pictures do I need to post, what if I ran out of pictures, how do I navigate the pictures? Two tips: one is to go out to google and maybe google your county, and find pictures of the area. When you're posting on Facebook you don't necessarily have to have pictures of the  actual property. I mean, that works but you can also post pictures of that area as long as you are clear in the body of your ad. So go out, be creative, find pictures of the area, and post. Just be honest from where you get the pictures from.Want To Listen More?Did you enjoy this episode?

She has been featured in FOX Business, The Motley Fool, and Personal Real Estate Investor magazine. She has sold over 200 copies of her Turnkey Rental Properties 101 eBook, and was awarded Top 100 Real Estate Investing Blogs & Websites.

They also discuss their top three marketing platforms of all time. TIP OF THE WEEKTeria: My tip of the week was going to be dud. My problem was getting spammy emails or just being on the list that I never subscribed to, so I was trying to find a good unsubscribe software that could go through and help me without having to unsubscribe individually with each one, and I found one. It worked well, for maybe 3 or 4 I was trying to unsubscribe, and after that, the fees started adding up for each time I want to unsubscribe. That was my dilemma, that was going to be my tip because the first was like, this is great, I don't have to worry about all of these emails and click, click, click; I can just unsubscribe with one button. But I don't want to pay a ton of money for it.Erik: It's been a while since I've gone through that process, but last time I did,  I believe I used a service called unroll.me. That allowed me to go through and unsubscribe from a bunch of stuff, I don't remember having to pay for it, I don't know if that has changed. But maybe it can help!Mark: Mine is, hey.com. They have a thing called a screener, if you have a subscription that you don't want you can screen them out and you'll never see them again. In fact, you can subscribe to a million things and you can see what it is, and then you can just scream them out. Super easy, super simple. It's $99 a year. I think it's well worth it.Want To Listen More?Did you enjoy this episode?

Basically, you can divide into teams, departments or companies, and get regular updates from your teams especially with your virtual teams, and have connections.Patrick: My tip of the week is how to use transformational questions instead of transactional questions when you talk to people. Most people when they go out and network, they will be asking something like, "How was your week or weekend?" or "How are you doing?", the problem with that kind of questions is that you'll get a surface answer because you can answer that on auto-pilot. You'll get an answer that is not really deep and what you need to do is bring them out of the auto-pilot people's on.  So instead, you can ask them "What was the best part of your weekend or week?", ask a question that gets people to think deeper and build a bond where there's a real connection, real humanity shared.Isn’t it time to create passive income so you can work where you want, when you want, and with whomever you want?
