Foreclosure Cleanout- Do Not Purchase Another Trashout Course Until You Read This

I frequently spend my nights educating myself about running a successful business. I also spend a considerable amount of time testing out new business management software along with other people's coaching programs and training courses, mostly because I am convinced that the right software can make the difference between success and failure, in not just the foreclosure cleaning field but in any business. I have been most disappointed by the courses that my fellow colleagues have been selling. I am referring to the authors writing about the property preservation and mortgage field services industry. I cannot help but to get angry when I see the "wannabe gurus" aka foreclosure cleanup queens and kings screaming about how rich people can get if they just follow the guru's advice. I haven't heard so much BS hype since Don King was promoting Mike Tyson. Being that I am a student and practitioner of the REO contracting business and also a student of the internet and technology , I can clearly see that these people do not know what they are talking about. I mean, if you read through their blogs and online sales advertisements you will find all kinds of contradicting statements. The part that makes me most upset is that I feel like the only people who believe this nonsense are the ones that are most likely to get hurt by the misinformation. As far as I'm concerned, people have to actually EARN the guru status.

Please, please, please if anyone else out here is thinking the same things about these unsavory characters, please let me know by posting a quick comment on this blog. Or if you have purchased one of these bogus courses and are unhappy, please post a comment.


Foreclosures decline, while foreclosure businesses thrive

This morning, I came across an online article that mentions a couple of the really successful property preservation companies that are out there, and have included a link below. Articles like this one are inspiring to me because it provides more evidence of how rapidly an REO business can grow within this little construction niche of ours. I make it a point to read something inspiring first thing in the morning (every day) so that I can begin the day with a feeling of gratitude.

Most people cannot believe that a daily morning routine (as seemingly small as it appears) could have such a profoundly positive effect on one's attitude. Do yourself a favor and force yourself (first thing in the morning, for the next 5 days in a row) to either watch an inspiring video or read an uplifting story instead of polluting your mind with the typical negative craziness (aka your regular daily news). Although this article wasn't designed to be inspiring, it is to those of us working on big things in the property preservation world (aka the trashout business). I forget who said it but if you keep doing the same thing all the time you are going to get the same results. This is a very small change (that is free and most likely will not take you any extra time). But it will return so much more.
