Jack Butala:
As Jack Butala here from Land Academy welcome to our cash flow from land show. We show you how to buy property for half of what it’s worth and resell it for [inaudible 00:00:40]. Great information and instruction from Jack, that’s me.

Jill DeWit:
Inspiration from Jill, that’s me.

Jack Butala:
Here’s some funny stuff that happened to us recently.

Jill DeWit:
I can’t believe you actually got me watching Fear the Walking Dead. Did you ever think that I would sit down and I actually … For some reason I’m okay with that one, and I think it’s because it’s a lot more … I don’t know. Is it the characters, is it the boat?

Jack Butala:
It’s all of that.

Jill DeWit:
It’s something … It’s like a different one. There’s not so many of the zombies popping up. I’m good with that.

Jack Butala:
It’s a good story.

Jill DeWit:
I’m kind of curious where they’re going, where the boat’s going, and the people and the … Oh when she had to cut that … When they cut the boat loose and the Captain really has to think about the people and-

Jack Butala:
It’s a good story.

Jill DeWit:
It is, I really-

Jack Butala:
It just happens to be zombies and a good story. Versus I think the actual Walking Dead which is the other way around.

Jill DeWit:
Well it’s funny because anytime I heard about the shows in the past I’m like, “Oh that is so not me, I’m out.” I wouldn’t even give it a chance. You actually got me sitting down watching one. I’m like, “All right. Okay, I kind of like this one,” and we’ve seen a couple now and I do like it. I’m actually curious now, what’s coming up.

Jack Butala:
It’s so nice, Jill, at the way late end of the day to watch something silly like that and just sort of fall asleep to it. It’s more about a falling asleep aid than anything else.

Jill DeWit:
Mm-hmm (affirmative). Exactly, I think that’s for a lot of people. A lot of people like to read a book. No seriously to take your mind off stuff and that’s yours.

Jack Butala:
You know what? Of all the funny stuff that you’ve ever come up with that has happened to us that is the most unlikely and phony quite honestly.

Jill DeWit:
That’s true, that I actually am watching this, it’s hilarious.

Jack Butala:
I’m amazed.

Jill DeWit:
I know.

Jack Butala:
Turns out we have more than one TV in the house, so.

Jill DeWit:
Exactly.

Jack Butala:
We can watch anything we want and you stick around for it.

Jill DeWit:
I don’t know why. Love it.

Jack Butala:
In this episode Jill and I talk about the truth. How much money is at stake? This is one of my … This has the potential to be my favorite show ever.

Jill DeWit:
Love it.

Jack Butala:
Before we start let’s take a question posted by one of our members on SuccessPlant.com, our free online community.

Jill DeWit:
Curly from New Jersey wrote, “If you make 10,000 per house and only a grand or two per land parcel, why are you wasting your time with the small stuff?”

Jack Butala:
You know what? This ties into this money thing. Why are you only wasting your time making $2,000? Here’s why Curly from New Jersey. You’re from the East coast and I’m going to talk to you like you are from the East Coast.

Jill DeWit:
Oh gosh.

Jack Butala:
Because it’s all in a system. We don’t just do one deal once in a while. It’s a bit massive system. We’re all set up to receive calls and make calls. We got websites all over the place. We have our outgoing offer in a huge system that moves its way around all the country. It’s a big system. It’s just like any other company on the planet. Some products are really profitable, and some products do really well. Land pays our bills. We make a very good living. We pay our people good, we pay ourselves pretty well. Our paychecks, I mean. That’s our bread and butter. Wasting your time with small stuff? Come on.

Jill DeWit:
That’s funny. You know what else I think too? Doing 10 little ones, or 15 or 20 and one little one doesn’t work out in the end, I don’t really care. If I’ve got, if I’m doing … Depending what level you are at, let’s just say, a lot of people can go a lot of little ones and afford to do that and keep growing and growing and growing. You’re hanging out for that one every month and oh my gosh something goes sideways. Now we have some problems.

Jack Butala:
We have a member who does one house transaction a month. He makes about … Well he tries to make 20. I think sometimes he does, but he said he makes 12 or 15. He doesn’t have a website, he did everything that we said not to do. He has a data pad. That data to doorstep program, he uses it well and he’s a very brainy. Reviews data very seriously and uses the mail program that comes with the data to doorstep [inaudible 00:05:06] program very, very, very efficiently.

Jill DeWit:
Mm-hmm (affirmative).

Jack Butala:
The way it’s intended. He isn’t … When I say he didn’t listen to us he just doesn’t market. There’s no marketing at all.

Jill DeWit:
Mm-hmm (affirmative).

Jack Butala:
That’s what I mean. He listens to us about the data and the printing.

Jill DeWit:
Right.

Jack Butala:
He does. He sends a bunch of mail out. Has a regular job. Works on the weekend and makes $12,000 a month more.

Jill DeWit:
Mm-hmm (affirmative).

Jack Butala:
You know, that adds up.

Jill DeWit:
Mm-hmm (affirmative). Oh it does.

Jack Butala:
That’s a $150,000 dollars a year.

Jill DeWit:
It’s does, of a side income. Exactly.

Jack Butala:
I never asked him, I don’t know how many hours he spends, but-

Jill DeWit:
That’s the thing about all of this.

Jack Butala:
He said, “What do you think it takes to do a land [inaudible 00:05:42] from start to finish?” Forget about the data. From the minute, Jill, that phone rings and you talk to the home owner or whoever on your staff, to the money’s in the bank, done. Because the way we do it, we don’t even outlay the money. We just call the people and they close it.

Jill DeWit:
Man shucks, if we just reassign it, it can be a days.

Jack Butala:
It’s like a week I looked at it. It’s like 9 days.

Jill DeWit:
Yeah, that’s what I’m saying it’s days.

Jack Butala:
Because they have a mortgage … The only thing that holds it up. Our buyer doesn’t require an inspection and all that stuff.

Jill DeWit:
Right.

Jack Butala:
That’s a huge advantage. We don’t get into that enough.

Jill DeWit:
We don’t.

Jack Butala:
If we sold it retail it would take 60 days.

Jill DeWit:
You know, I got to tell you this is one thing I love about this whole business that we are in. There is so many things that you can do, it is never ending. You are never going to run out of stuff to do here and once you learn. Like what Jack is saying, these tools and these resources, apply it to whatever you want. It is limitless what you can do.

Jack Butala:
Well said.

Jill DeWit:
Thank you.

Jack Butala:
If you have a question, and you want to be on the show and you see you’re relatively positive person like Jill is call 800-725-8816. Today’s topic, the truth. Everybody just wants the truth. Right Jill?

Jill DeWit:
Oh my goodness, yes.

Jack Butala:
How much money is at stake?

Jill DeWit:
A dollar, just kidding.

Jack Butala:
Money, money, money, money, I love it.

Jill DeWit:
This is so funny.

Jack Butala:
There’s a ton of money at stake, to answer the question.

Jill DeWit:
Mm-hmm (affirmative).

Jack Butala:
My best year I made about 5 and a half million dollars. Personally, in my personal bank account.

Jill DeWit:
Mm-hmm (affirmative).

Jack Butala:
I’ll tell you it’s a lot of work and it was a lot of stress. How much is the money stake for you? Well we just described someone that makes 150,000 bucks with not a lot of work at all. The answer is, it’s up to you. Do you want to make this a multi million business within 6 months like I did? Yeah, that’s what’s at stake and quit your job? Yeah, it’s totally possible. We provide all the tools and education that you could ever need to do that.

Jill DeWit:
Mm-hmm (affirmative).

Jack Butala:
Within reason. If we find something that we can add to it, I’ll give you an example. One of my jobs is to go out there and find other stuff that we can add to our programs, sometimes we charge for it, sometimes we don’t, that make you more successful. There’s other sources of data you can do this with. Jill and I have been kicking this around. You can buy boats this way you can buy cars this way.

Jill DeWit:
Mm-hmm (affirmative).

Jack Butala:
You can access the whole DMV or the whole country. Yachts, Jill and I are just about to buy a pretty large boat based on a mailer that we sent out.

Jill DeWit:
Vacation rentals, we all laughed about that one a few times.

Jack Butala:
There’s a lot of ways to do this.

Jill DeWit:
Mm-hmm (affirmative).

Jack Butala:
It all comes down to what you want out of it.

Jill DeWit:
Right.

Jack Butala:
Like the Success Plant question earlier. Yeah I mean if you want to make $2000. We had a member that came to me and said this sentence. “I really just need to make 1,200 or 1,500 more a month.” Why? Why do you want to do that, I said. “I just really want to cover my mortgage and my insurance and some other stuff. I don’t want to get rich, or any of that. My kids are about to go to college, I got that all taken care of. My life would dramatically improve if I made $1,500 or more.” He’s doing it.

Jill DeWit:
Mm-hmm (affirmative).

Jack Butala:
He’s not stopping there by the way.

Jill DeWit:
I know.

Jack Butala:
He thought he wanted 1,500 and he’s not being a nut case about it like we are.

Jill DeWit:
Right, that’s it.

Jack Butala:
I can talk here about how much money is at stake. It’s not just the money, it’s your health. You want to sit in a cube for the rest of your life Jill?

Jill DeWit:
Oh my goodness, have a heart attack. The number of people that I talk to that they make this decision because their commute just got to them.

Jack Butala:
Yeah.

Jill DeWit:
It’s just little things like that.

Jack Butala:
Here’s the whole flip side. Jill has a very good girlfriend, and every time we see her or every time I see her which is a lot less than Jill does.

Jill DeWit:
Mm-hmm (affirmative).

Jack Butala:
She says, “What the hell are you guys doing? I don’t get it.” She’s a very, very, very good job, good salary job with the company locally here in Scottsdale, and this whole thing doesn’t make sense. Having a side income to her it’s a pain in the butt kind of a thing.

Jill DeWit:
Mm-hmm (affirmative).

Jack Butala:
She wants to have fun on the weekend.

Jill DeWit:
Mm-hmm (affirmative).

Jack Butala:
She has her regular job. She’s great at it. She moving up through the ranks from what I understand.

Jill DeWit:
Mm-hmm (affirmative).

Jack Butala:
I think there might even be a pension with this, I don’t even know. She can’t imagine why Jill and I ever would want to get in front of a microphone and talk about stuff if we’re doing really well financially.

Jill DeWit:
Mm-hmm (affirmative).

Jack Butala:
To her, how much money is at stake? Zero.

Jill DeWit:
Right.

Jack Butala:
In fact it’s less than zero because she doesn’t want to spend the time.

Jill DeWit:
It’s true.

Jack Butala:
It’s a distraction.

Jill DeWit:
No and that’s okay. There’s people out there. What appeals to some and doesn’t appeal to others. That’s okay. No way’s right or wrong. They’re just different.

Jack Butala:
How much is money for … You and I have these philosophical questions once in a while. We did recently, like what’s this whole thing look like in 5 years for you Jill?

Jill DeWit:
Oh yeah.

Jack Butala:
Remember that? Your answers baffled me. I mean not baffled me, they-

Jill DeWit:
We have different answers.

Jack Butala:
Really different. I have like dollar signs. I have financial goals and Jill-

Jill DeWit:
I have freedom goals.

Jack Butala:
Yeah, Jill’s more like, “If I have an extra X amount of money,” well you have that already. She’s like, “Then why am I doing this?”

Jill DeWit:
That’s true. It’s kind of true. My goals are met, but yours are not.

Jack Butala:
Your goals have been met. That’s how we ended it.

Jill DeWit:
We all agree my goals are met, yours are not and I’m here taking one for the team. I’m just kidding. It’s all good.

Jack Butala:
I’d like to get my book done, Steve.com. Whatever my name is.

Jill DeWit:
Jack. It’s Jack. Totally. This is a really good discuss … How much money is at stake? Because you know what? It’s personal.

Jack Butala:
Yeah, that’s what I mean.

Jill DeWit:
It could be as little or 0 or a 1,000.

Jack Butala:
There’s a lot of money at stake.

Jill DeWit:
It could be 2 thousand a month.

Jack Butala:
It could be millions.

Jill DeWit:
It could be 5000 a month. It could be 10,000 a month, it could be 50,000 a month. All of that’s possible. I mean-

Jack Butala:
We have a customer, a member, this is what he does. He flips houses. He uses their data. He sends letters out. Has has a person in a foreign country answering his phone for peanuts. That person qualifies the lead. That lead gets sent to several handpicked flippers that he has. Every once in a while it works.

Jill DeWit:
Mm-hmm (affirmative).

Jack Butala:
He flat out says, “I know if I worked on this every day I would make way more money if I was involved. If I answered the phone myself I would probably triple what I’m doing.” He makes about $5500 a deal. He does, I think he said 4, 1 deal a week. He’s making about 20 grand a month.

Jill DeWit:
Right.

Jack Butala:
He does no work at all.

Jill DeWit:
Exactly.

Jack Butala:
He just looks at reports and money and talks to the guys.

Jill DeWit:
Basically he gets a finders fee kind of thing.

Jack Butala:
Yeah, he is just using the data. He got there first.

Jill DeWit:
Right. He’s not looking at the property, there is no analyzing of the property on his hand I mean after the fact. You know, he manipulates the data before the fact because he knows what they’re looking for, but that’s it. There you go, how much money is at stake, whatever you want.

Jack Butala:
Yeah.

Jill DeWit:
That’s what I was saying too. It’s limitless once you learn these tools, it’s limitless what you want to do. What’s so interesting is it’s not that crazy. It’s not that hard, but you just have to just kind of understand it and get it. Then do it, apply it

Jack Butala:
Then do it.

Jill DeWit:
Yeah. I mean really.

Jack Butala:
That’s an important step in all this.

Jill DeWit:
It is. Well it is true. It’s so interesting the people that go, “This really works?” Don’t trust me, test it, do it. Then they kind of go-

Jack Butala:
Go on success plan. Many of our members are on there and talk about it all the time. A lot of them aren’t. There’s are many members on Success Plant saying, “I didn’t believe it at all. Wow, it works.”

Jill DeWit:
Right. I have so many people that come back to me and go uh oh, now what do I do. Because they really their phone. Remember this one sent a picture of us, he had like 10 or 16 returned, signed offers from sellers accepting his offer. Yeah they showed up in the mail in three days. He did a huge blast. He did everything right, did everything we said and he sent me back … I need to publish this photo. The most beautiful photo because he put our Land Academy binder that he has with our logo on it and he fanned out the letters on it. It was so cool that we got this letter and he’s like, “Oh my gosh I had no [inaudible 00:14:19] … I mean right now it’s giving me goosebumps just saying it.

Jack Butala:
Yeah, I can tell.

Jill DeWit:
He like, “I had no idea that this really does work.” I’m like, you did you got it, see. Go now Go. Pick the ones you want, run.

Jack Butala:
There’s a lot of money at stake.

Jill DeWit:
There is. Now it’s up to him. Do I want to do them all? Do I need to … What level do I want my business to get to because I am staring at this opportunity. How far do I want to take it?

Jack Butala:
Dang, that’s a great question to ask right in front of the mirror.

Jill DeWit:
Mm-hmm (affirmative), that’s it. Do I want to pick one and kind of just, I don’t know, just do it here and there. Do I want to work all these deals and just really kill it? In a year or two, now I can make some different life decisions.

Jack Butala:
This is the if, then segment of the show. If you do X then Y will happen. If you take a good look at how much money you could make in Real Estate. The end justifies the means. What the hell does that mean? It means it’s worth the damn effort.

Jill DeWit:
It is.

Jack Butala:
If you take a really good look … Look around at how much Real Estate you see on the way home from work today or on the way to work. Somebody owns that.

Jill DeWit:
Mm-hmm (affirmative).

Jack Butala:
Somebody’s collecting rent from that. They live there, or they flipped it, or they’re renovating it. Take a good look at how much money you can make and all the other people that you know or don’t know, are making in Real Estate. There’s a reason for that. The end justifies the means. Is it tough? Is the learning curve tough in the beginning? Yeah. Are you going to fail a little bit? Yeah. It’s worth the effort Jill.

Jill DeWit:
It is.

Jack Butala:
Time after time after time we hear it over and over and over again. Thank you Jack and Jill.

Jill DeWit:
Right.

Jack Butala:
I like these shows that are not so technical.

Jill DeWit:
Me too. Me too.

Jack Butala:
Hey if you have a question or you want to be on the show call 800-725-8816. Don’t be Eeyore. Jill do you have some inspiration?

Jill DeWit:
I do. Here is my … I have a statement today. We should all approach success as an ethical issue, not a financial one. It kind of ties in, we’re talking about money-

Jack Butala:
Jill’s about to undo everything I just said for the last sixteen minutes.

Jill DeWit:
No, no I’m adding to it. Because you know what? It makes it even better. Yes, we want to be financially successful, slash however. We also want to be ethical and honest and upfront because it pays off. I mean just imagine, we talk about … Just the topic that we’re talking about. Being a good honest, upfront person and doing your deals the right way and everything. You’re going to have clients for life, customers for life. People will buy from you all the time and sell to you all the time. I mean it just goes without saying. It’s funny because when I think about these inspirational things I don’t know the topics yet so it’s fun for me to sit down when we’re doing our show, and I go, “Okay, how’s this all going to tie together?” They do. I don’t plan for them to tie together, but they often do. We’re talking about financial success, but there’s also ethical success and it’s important. Steven is super quiet over there I don’t know if he’s mad at me or he’s thinking of something.

Jack Butala:
No, I’m not.

Jill DeWit:
Okay.

Jack Butala:
I’m not, I’m not.

Jill DeWit:
Jack.

Jack Butala:
You know what I’m thinking about?

Jill DeWit:
What are you thinking about?

Jack Butala:
Jill, what I’m thinking about I just don’t know about these people who get … Who on a sustained basis provide a product that doesn’t work. I mean I don’t even have any specific in mind. A product that doesn’t work, I just don’t know how a sustain a crook model. I don’t get it. I mean like-

Jill DeWit:
True yeah, how do you be a bad … How do you make it in the business?

Jack Butala:
Yeah, like wouldn’t it just be easier-

Jill DeWit:
That’s a good point.

Jack Butala:
In the end to put the time in up front to do it properly?

Jill DeWit:
Well isn’t it-

Jack Butala:
That’s what I always end up with.

Jill DeWit:
Well aren’t people eventually going to figure it out? Then you-

Jack Butala:
Yeah, that’s what I mean.

Jill DeWit:
Wasted everything. Then by the way your name is mud so what was the point of that.

Jack Butala:
That’s what I … We’re saying the exact same thing.

Jill DeWit:
That’s a good way to look at it.

Jack Butala:
It’s not just the money it’s the pride of doing stuff properly and watching people, whether they’re your customers. I mean I don’t know if your … I don’t care if you manufacture a product like Coca Cola, I don’t care if you like that or don’t like it, or think it’s healthy or doesn’t. That’s not the point here. The point it’s got to make you feel good when someone drinks from on. Feels and makes them feel good or it tastes good.

Jill DeWit:
Mm-hmm (affirmative).

Jack Butala:
Why not, you know … I’m saying do it responsibility.

Jill DeWit:
Mm-hmm (affirmative).

Jack Butala:
I just don’t know why you would create a product, buy a property … I don’t even know what an example would be like. Not renovate, cut corners on renovating a property not properly and homeowners find out about it 4 years later or something. Cutting corners and I’m saying the same version of what you are. Same version, but real examples of what you are.

Jill DeWit:
Mm-hmm (affirmative).

Jack Butala:
It’s not just about the money. It’s about pride for you and your customers.

Jill DeWit:
It just, it’s not just … I guess that was my whole point too. It’s not just internal, you know you’re doing the right thing. It does come back, people know. People know, you know? You just said we all want the truth. That’s the thing. When I talk to people on the phone they know I’m really telling the truth and I am a bad liar. I won’t lie I won’t. People asked me flat out some questions, “What do I need to know? What could I [inaudible 00:20:06] whatever.” I’ll tell you because you need to know the truth. I don’t want you to get into something that you really don’t-

Jack Butala:
That’s right.

Jill DeWit:
This is not for you. I don’t want you to come back 6 months later saying I was supposed to have a million dollars. Hold on a moment that’s not what we talked about or just whatever. We need to be honest, not just for you. It’s the right thing to do and it will pay off.

Jack Butala:
I was talking to somebody recently and they said the vast majority of people that are into real estate space that earn their education for real estate space are trained formally in sales. They’re not … They have not been trained.

Jill DeWit:
They don’t even do deals.

Jack Butala:
Yeah they don’t do deals. Maybe they did 4 or 40 or 400. It’s not 15 or 16 thousand. I didn’t … This guy … I don’t know where he was coming from and it wasn’t a very long conversation, but that’s that. That statistic just stuck in my head, I’m like whoa. Scary man.

Jill DeWit:
You know what? Steven, Jack, whatever your name is. I completely agree with you that really rubs me the wrong way.

Jack Butala:
Me too.

Jill DeWit:
How can you teach me how to do something when you don’t-

Jack Butala:
Never done it.

Jill DeWit:
Even know what it is or you have 3. Okay, laying on a moment. Have you really tested them all? When you’re in the thousands and over 10,000 and over 15,000 like we are I can safely say, goes both ways, I can safely say we know what we’re doing, obviously. Then we are the experts obviously. The flip side is when people come to me and go, “Could this happen?” I go you know what, in the 15,000 deals that we’ve done it hasn’t come up. I don’t think you should worry about that.

Jack Butala:
It could happen, but don’t worry.

Jill DeWit:
Exactly. Let’s not focus on it.

Jack Butala:
It’s probably also why we suck at sales. I don’t know.

Jill DeWit:
You know what, be honest. Be honest, share who you are, share what you’re doing. You’re either in or you’re out. That’s cool.

Jack Butala:
That’s exactly how I feel.

Jill DeWit:
That’s it. I don’t mind. Oh that’s so great I wish you would have asked. Okay.

Jack Butala:
I would rather have less customers, but really happy ones and successful ones versus more customers who are just really, think they made a mistake or something.

Jill DeWit:
No, yeah.

Jack Butala:
Which we don’t have.

Jill DeWit:
If you’re in our group you’re here because you want to be here. We are helping you get there. You couldn’t do it on your own, got it. You didn’t have the time or the energy, or the resources whatever, got it. Here we are.

Jack Butala:
Yeah.

Jill DeWit:
That’s it.

Jack Butala:
Join us in another episode where Jack and Jill discuss how to use information, that’s me.

Jill DeWit:
Inspiration, that’s me!

Jack Butala:
To get just about anything you want. Jill uses it everyday to buy property for half of what it’s worth and sell it immediately. Get there first. Our cue cards got backwards.

Jill DeWit:
They did, sorry. I [inaudible 00:23:08] tripping at each other.

Jack Butala:
Good show anyway.

Jill DeWit:
Yeah, you know it’s funny I do I hope our listeners do. I get more from that ones that aren’t so content heavy. I like the, let’s talk about big picture stuff.

Jack Butala:
You know that ties exactly into what we were just talking about. I’m very, very sorry to you Jill and to our listening audience. Because I think our listening audience could be massively large if we never talked about anything serious or anything technical. The fact is there’s some technical stuff that will help you succeed here and we provide the technical tools to do that. It’s just not all peaches and cream and rose peddles. I’m sorry.

Jill DeWit:
All right.

Jack Butala:
I really am.

Jill DeWit:
Well thanks.

Jack Butala:
These shows are my favorite too.

Jill DeWit:
All right.

Jack Butala:
Maybe eventually that’s what this is all going to be. I don’t know, but right now we have a responsibility to the people who are members, and some new ones who are out there who are thinking, “Maybe I should get involved in this.” To show them how to do this exactly.

Jill DeWit:
Well Steven, Jack. I’m going to cut your name to Steven-Jack now. That is your name, but anyways. I need to call you one of them. I appreciate you being-

Jack Butala:
That is my name.

Jill DeWit:
It is your name. I appreciate you being upfront and honest with me and ethical and telling me that. It is your favorite too and … You know I was just thinking of something funny. You know how there is like Billy Jack, you will be Steven-Jack.

Jack Butala:
Yeah.

Jill DeWit:
I want [inaudible 00:24:42] listen to this and know who Billy Jack is.

Jack Butala:
We started this a week ago this calling me by my middle name thing because Jack and Jill just makes sense.

Jill DeWit:
It does.

Jack Butala:
Jill and I tried an experiment on 2 Uber drivers and 3 REI clubs introducing ourselves as Jack and Jill. They slammed on the car and their jaws dropped and everybody loved it, so.

Jill DeWit:
Yeah, it’s a thing.

Jack Butala:
Then I asked someone about it in the professional life. Somebody that is a professional agent and they said, “Jack you’re an idiot for not doing it 4 years ago.” They’re just looking at me like that’s the greatest thing I’ve ever heard. Okay.

Jill DeWit:
Well there’s another thing that we have learned over the years and we can save you now.

Jack Butala:
Yeah if your middle name is cooler than your first name.

Jill DeWit:
Do it now! Don’t think about it.

Jack Butala:

No need to hire staff - we did it for you.

Land Academy PRO is the brainchild of founders Steven Jack Butala and Jill DeWit. Designed at the request of Land Academy members who are ready for a higher level, we’re excited to continue to provide the tools and support needed by professional investors.

Each level comes with a preset amount of included data, Concierge Mail service, and postage. For example, the Green level includes 6,000 units of completed-for-you mail completely out the door at no extra cost to you.

All levels include a PatLive introduction and preset script (we will set up your phone answering for you), use of Land Academy’s personal Transaction Team to manage your deal flow, an AirTable (CRM) base setup managed by our (and your!) Transaction Coordinator, personal consulting, regular office hours, and includes your Land Academy subscription cost.

If you’re making this a business, Land Academy PRO takes the work off of your plate so you can focus on the things that matter – like running your business.
