Let Us Know What You Thought Of The Episode Raising money for real estate deals wears out a lot of good investors. Coffee meetings with people who’ve never heard of you, where you spend the whole time trying to prove they can trust you. Pitching the same deal over and over, hoping someone finally says yes, only to watch it fall flat. Some investors work the other way around. Money partners reach out to them first. By the time that first call happens, the investor already knows their story and how they run their business. That’s a completely different conversation than trying to convince someone to work with you. One of the best ways to start attracting money instead of chasing it is writing a book. Your story ends up in someone’s hands long before you ever meet them. In this episode of the Savvy Investor Podcast, Michael Ponte sits down with Julie Broad, founder of Book Launchers. For the last nine years, Julie has helped nonfiction authors publish books that hold up next to anything from a traditional publisher. Before that, she and her husband built a portfolio of around 40 houses before moving into office and medical buildings. Her first book, More Than Cashflow, was turned down by Wiley. She published it herself and it went to #1 overall on Amazon. A couple of weeks after it came out, a reader she’d never met called her wanting to invest $250,000. In this episode we get into: How to start writing a book, and what to share when you feel like you don’t have a storyWhy money partners want to hear how you handled your worst days, not just your best onesHow to figure out who your book is for before you write a single pageWhy book sales shouldn’t be the goal for real estate investorsWhat it really takes in time and money to publish a quality book, and why real estate readers want the audio versionIf you’re tired of chasing money partners and want them coming to you instead, you’re going to enjoy this one.
