    Keith Gillispie: Stop Guessing in Your Business and Start Tracking What Matters

    Building a real estate business isn’t about hustle — it’s about repeatable systems and accountability. In this episode, Andrew sits down with Keith Gillispie of REI Automated to break down how disciplined processes, data, and automation create predictable growth. Keith shares how he transitioned from active-duty Marine to real estate investor, software creator, and coach — and why most investors stay stuck without clear KPIs and documented systems. In this episode: Why inconsistent inputs destroy business results How to build SOPs that scale without you The role of automation in investor operations Tracking KPIs that actually drive profit Keith Gillispie went from missing his kids' childhood overseas as an active-duty Marine to building a real estate empire that lets him coach Little League and never miss a family dinner.

A Florida dad of two, Keith combines the discipline of a Marine with the heart of someone who's been exactly where you are - desperate for a better life and willing to do whatever it takes to build it.

    David Richter: Inside the Profit First Playbook for Real Estate Investors

    Most real estate operators don’t fail because of deals — they fail because of cash flow control. In this episode, Andrew sits down with David Richter to break down the Profit First system built specifically for real estate investors. If you’re closing deals but still feeling financial pressure, this conversation will reframe how you run your business. In this episode: Why high deal volume doesn’t guarantee financial freedom How Profit First creates discipline and clarity with money The core accounts every investor should be using How to stop reacting to cash flow and start controlling it David Richter is the author of Profit First for Real Estate Investing. He's the owner of Simple CFO. He has been in Real Estate for over 10 years. He's been a part of 850 closed deals from wholesales, fix and flips, rentals, lease options, creative deals, turnkeys, and any other type of deal you can think of. He was part of an REI company that grew to 25 deals a month, but he learned that it spent 26 worth of deals each month as well. That put him on a road to discover why so many business owners make money but feel broke. This is why he started his company, Simple CFO. He now helps entrepreneurs take the finances off their plate, build the business they've always wanted, and guide them to achieve what financial freedom means to them.
