      PREFACE

      First, I want to thank you for your interest in this book. I am certain that if you read this book you will find at least a few nuggets for you to take with you as you begin to wholesale houses.

      This book is your quick-start guide to marketing a business centered around flipping houses on a wholesale basis. You will learn who your marketing targets are, how to look for the buyers and sellers that will be most responsive to your questions, and how to recognize the best deals for you. Finally, you will learn the actual methods that put you in touch with these people, and keep you in touch with the right people who can help you to take home that check from the closing.

      With this book, my goal is to give you enough information to show you that there is money to be made. There are properties out there waiting for you to discover them and find a better purpose for them. There are people out there waiting for something to happen with a property they don’t want. Learn the concepts I’m giving you and put these ideas into action.

      Remember, I’m only focusing on the basics in this book. I want to give you a summary of what you need to succeed in this business, but it would take a lot more information to truly give you the complete picture of everything you could possibly run into when marketing your wholesaling business.

      So, as my way of saying thank you for taking the time to read this ebook, I’d like to offer you the opportunity to download a free copy of the Fast Cash Wholesaling Houses Fast Start audio CD available at…

      Marketing Goals for Properties and Buyers

      If you’re in the business of wholesaling houses, you’re in the right place and reading the right book. After you organize your business entity, the next step in starting or revitalizing a house-flipping business is marketing!

      Marketing is more than just advertising. It’s a reputation management system. It’s a path for you to follow as you establish yourself as the go-to person in your area for problem property solutions. When you build a marketing plan and follow it through, your business has a customized road map to cash flow and contacts and almost everything else that goes into a series of successful wholesaling deals.

      This book was written to help you successfully market your business with the most widely used tools in the industry. You’ll learn about various marketing methods that can make the most of your talents and your niche market. You’ll learn which tools are more likely to help you create a marketing strategy that’s right for you. And no matter which path you choose for your business, the first step in marketing is setting goals.

      Marketing costs either money or time, so goal number one is to resolve not to waste time and money in your marketing efforts. That means you need a plan. It may sound like a time-waster to analyze your business, decide what to do in each situation, and write everything down, but when you run a business, you need to look before you leap.
