Meeting Summary:
- Well the meeting didn't start
out too well because I forgot to bring my "jump drive"
for the slide shows and went all the way back to the
office to retrieve it. When I arrived there were ten
people already there. THANK GOD I had set up
before the meeting started. I like to network before the
meeting starts but I had to get everyone signed in due
to me being late.
Attendance wasn't huge but it was not small either. It was refreshing to see many new faces mixed in with familiar ones. It was good to see Karen Knoblock and Lucio Gomez returning after missing the last two months. They maybe the luckiest couple I ever met. They always seem to win the door prize every month.
I want to welcome our newest corporate member Lee Greer, Advantage Capital Equity Solutions, I love his web site: www.adcapequity.com/leegreer.aspx. On the web site is a picture of Lee holding up a big ole fish. It looks bigger than the Boat! What's that line from JAWS? - "We need a bigger boat!"
- Featured Speaker Charles Petty did
an awesome job by presenting his slide show about
Virtual Wholesaling. Unfortunately, his wife Kim could
not make it due to the fact his wife is pregnant with
their fifth child.
Charles mentioned that they Wholesale 5-10 houses a month and acquires most of them virtually. They outsource everything concerning their business and do a lot of webinars. He recommended several books: The World is Flat, The 4 Hour Work Week, several websites: Craig's List, Backpage.com and several marketing tips like Voice Broadcasting, which was intriguing.
- Our meeting sponsors
Ralph Geronimo from Land Specialties Inc. presented
investment opportunities in
Georgia's Blue Ridge Mountains
After the presentation Ralph invited everyone for a free dinner at a four star restaurant later in the week and a subsidized air trip to the Georgia's Blue Ridge Mountains.
