Giving you a shout. Welcoming you to the Zero to Diamond family. And see if there's anything I can do to help you get started. See if you got any questions. Just give me a ring if you get a chance. Man, happy birthday. Talk to you soon. Guess what guys? It's raining again. Who would have guessed that? But it's Monday morning. My favorite day of the week. I love Mondays. Sunday night to get all excited because I get to get back in here. I feel like I'm going to war every week and I love it. So today I have a meeting with the City of Gulf Shores about a lot. It's a Lagoon front lot. They're asking $159. Me and a couple of partners are thinking about buying it and building a spec home. So I'm going to meet the city guy, take him out there. We're going to walk the property because there's a few low places and we're going to see if there's any possible wetlands. Lunch appointment with a client at 11.30. Then I have an appointment with one of my sellers who currently has their house listed. They want to meet me after lunch. So I set up a time for 2 o'clock to meet with them. So I got meetings basically all day. When it gets to the office here in a minute, I'm going to go through all my notes and make sure I don't need to make any quick phone calls or follow up with anything before I go meet the city. Other than that, like I say, meeting is just about all day. But in between I'm going to be taking care of stuff, making calls, trying to put deals together. I'm still negotiating a deal that I started working on over the weekend. So I'm trying to get that hammered out today in a couple other things. Give them a formal introduction and make sure they get everything they need to get started. So that was a good meeting with Mark at the city. Long time friend. We go way back. So we caught up in a lot of stuff. Family, health, business, etc. But one thing I thought was interesting that he said was about social media and how the older generation, you know, they want to do business with face to face and a handshake. But the younger generation doesn't care. You know, they're using social media. They're talking back and forth on messaging apps. I thought that was very interesting. Just the thought of that. I don't know how I feel about it, but I thought it was very interesting. But about the jump in Walmart, get a memory card just so I have some extra memory in case I run out of some memory for the video camera and then off to lunch. Super good meeting with my buddy James. Working on a couple of things catching up. Now for another coaching call. What's up, man? How are you, man? Welcome to the program, man. Welcome to the zero to diamond family, dude. You're in for life. Okay. No, I have all the time in the world. I just use constant contacts and I put everybody in there and then I send a weekly email on the same day every week forever. I'm telling you, man. I'm telling you, dude. That's what that's what this is all about, man, is just is just being close to somebody who is doing it. You know, like I'm doing it and just having that full access to me forever. And yeah, and then having access and then I laid out my entire business plan, you know, for you guys and videos and action plans and jumpstart programs and videos and online course. And we do coaching sessions once or twice a month. We're going to do one on door knocking here in a couple of weeks. Okay. Great. So I'm, you know, I've never really doorknocked, but I just want to expand the content for the coaching program for people that do want to do different things other than circle prospect. So I'm just expanding the content because I know how to do it all. You know, I just, you know, some things to me are more effective than others, but that's me. You know, some, some people may really kill it with door knocking. So I want to give, I want to let everybody know how I would do it if I were to do it. And then you guys can take the information and do what you want. Absolutely, dude. And I want to help you do it. So sounds like you're the man, dude. So go crush it. Let me know if you have any questions. And again, welcome to the program and post your call results in the group. That's how we hold each other accountable. Actually reach out to your clients, me, you know. Yeah, dude. That's awesome, Ricky. I really appreciate that man. Thank you very much. I value your time tremendously. This is my cell phone number. Just put me in and call, you can call me anytime. Okay. You can, dude. Listen to me. I did a video, maybe I did a, I did a Facebook live and the private group, maybe a week ago, a week ago or so. And I literally told everybody in there to quit worrying about bugging me and to just call me if you need something. You know what I'm saying? Because I've got people saying, hey, I don't want to, you know, I'm scared to call or this or that. And like, and it's like they had a problem. They had a question that they needed help with, but they were, they were too shy or timid or scared or thought they'd be bugging me or whatever to call me or message me or whatever. And it's like, guys, that's what this thing's all about. It's Ricky. That's horrible, man. That's a horrible phone strip. You don't even know who you're talking to. You should say, you should say, Mr. Johnson, like it's a question and then let them answer so you know who you're talking to. And then say, hey, you know, this is Ricky Careuth at Remax of Mars Beach. How are you doing today? You don't have to say I'm a local realtor. They know you're a realtor when you say Remax. Okay. And then you don't don't say, okay, the reason for my call is blah, blah, blah, real estate, real estate, real estate. That sounds like every other agent out there. Our job is to sound different than every other agent, right? Thinking about it wrong. It's not about how to get listings. It's not about how to get listings. It's about how to acquire a large list of property owners who know you and like you.
