One of the unexpected benefits that I have received from my Probate business is the great feedback I get from many of you.

Yesterday was “We’ve got your back, Ron!” day.

Why do I say that?

Because I got two separate messages telling me about claims some of my competitors are making about the results you will get from buying their “How to Make Bazillions in Probate” material.

One instructor’s marketing copy said he was “making millionaires across the nation with his strategy”.

The other asked if you would like to start earning “$50,000 to $100,000…..(and more) on each and every deal”.

WOW! Where do I sign up? These guys must know something I don’t?????

In my 13 years of working in the Probate field, I’ve never made $100,000 on even one deal, much less many of them.

Now in all fairness, I must tell you I do have one student who made over $100,000 on a deal but even that one had unusual circumstances.

The estate had six houses in it and he was able to get them all and after selling each of them, he netted a total of a little over six figures.

Nice payday!

But I think it would be a little less than honest if I were to put that in my marketing material as an average deal that you too can do each and every month.

Possible……but not probable.

So when you read these extravagant claims, just remember they are made to set the stage for you to make a very large purchase price for their course(s).

Almost always you will find you’ll be asked to spend between $1500 and $10,000 on e-books, courses, membership sites, boot camps, videos, tutorials, coaching programs etc. etc.

They may start you off with a small initial price but they’ll march you up the ladder until you run out of credit card.

I hope you haven’t already been hooked.

I’ll always remember the lady who FedExed me the entire set of notes from a 3 day seminar she had just attended on Probate.

She paid $3000 plus travel expenses to attend and she was so mad about the lack of clear content and the number of “must haves” that were being sold at the seminar that she went out and copied each and every page of the power point presentation and sent it to me.

This was after she had bought my manual, read it in one afternoon and went to work immediately.

She said she was distraught she had not found my book earlier and saved herself the $4500 she had spent on the seminar.

She said she learned more in the 4 hours it took to read my book than she had in the 3 days at the seminar.

So my word of caution to those of you who are considering spending lots of dough with one of these “gurus” is do your homework.

Spend some time Googleing the courses you are thinking about buying. See what others have to say about their experience.

Here’s my final litmus test:

Pick up the phone and try to call them.

See if you can find someone in their office who’ll answer.

If that doesn’t work, send them an email and see if you get a response.

If neither of these works, you might ask yourself how sincere these folks are in training you if you cannot even contact them.

So anyway, thanks to the two of you who mailed me yesterday. Maybe my little rant today will save a few of you folks from credit card purgatory.

By the way, for those of you who would like to learn my Probate strategy and not spend a fortune, here’s where you can check out the various learning tools I offer:

One last thing I almost forgot. My phone number,

Toll Free, 866.879.8893.

Call us and you will probably get The Darling Bride, Sharon.
She’ll be happy to help you with your order.

One thing she won’t do is promise you you’ll be a millionaire in six months. But the upside is you won’t spend the next two years paying off your credit card bill either.

Not our style!

By the way, by tomorrow I should have the final registration details together for my “Private Money Millions” workshop to be held on May 16th.

You’ll be the first to know.

Watch for my email.

And yes, we will record the workshop but it will only be available to those who have signed up.

You won’t want to put off registering as I certainly expect this workshop to fill up quickly based upon the number of emails I have received on this hot topic.

One last thing. I’ve been invited to speak to the Real Estate Investment club of Portland on Thursday night, May 7th. If you can make it by there, stop in and say hello.

I’d love to meet you.
