Tomorrow is the big day December 1st we're launching Short Term Rental
University Bachelor's and Masters a lot of you have had some really great
questions thank you for your patience we're about to answer them let's get
into it
first my goal why am i creating short-term rental university look I'm
absolutely thrilled with the impact we've had on the YouTube channel in the
Facebook group and I get comments every single day from people whose lives have
been positively impacted and they're taking chances and growing their
business and it's been amazing however it's also been you know very
superficial at a very top level and I want to get more granular speaking of
granular let's do it so what is it and it really comes down to what we call our
four C's we've got four C's one as content two is coaching three is the
community and four is our buyer Club and let's talk about each of these so let's
talk about the first C content and it really comes down to two things one
we're creating a course well actually two courses one for the bachelors track
and one for the Masters track and that specific content to where you are in
your journey and it's really granular and detail-oriented an action item
oriented we want you to do homework we want you to do things at a certain order
we want you to work on it and work on your business and really get it to the
next level so we're creating a course and I want to be really clear the course
that we're creating isn't the membership it's just one component it's always
gonna be updated it's gonna be released over time so if you buy the course don't
think that's all you're getting is just one element the second C is coaching
we're lining up a world-class list of people that are experts in their field
in their domain in their category whatever it is that they do they're
experts and they're thrilled to work with us these people want to work with
people that want to be helped just like I want to work with people that want to
be like students and help and help others so it's great and things range
from like topics that you would imagine financing analyzing properties mortgages
taxes decorating everything in and around real estate so like we've got
that covered talking about answering questions and
coaching along the way that's where I come in I'm gonna spend all my time and
energy on the page Facebook groups so you're gonna have full access to me
while I'm going to continue to moderate the Facebook group that's free because
that's a thriving community and it's great it's helping a lot of people it's
so broad-based that I can't have the impact that I want
I want to coach people I want specific questions where I can answer specific
action items and I'm gonna do that on the Facebook group that's for bachelor's
and master's so I'm excited about that and that brings us to the third C
community the third C and likely the one that you're discounting the most is
actually counterintuitive I happen to think and Charles agrees that this is
probably the most valuable one which is the community so we're gonna have
segmented groups in Facebook for where you are in your journey if you're just
getting started or you have one listing there's all sorts of questions that are
appropriate for you and we're gonna answer those questions and you're gonna
work with like-minded people in that community however if you're more
advanced and you're scaling and you're really a real estate entrepreneur
already some of these basic questions may not really be relevant to you and
you have more specific questions about triple net leases and 1031 exchanges in
LLC's and you want to be in that community with people that have that
expertise and answering those questions so we're really excited about the
community we did some meetups we plan on doing more meetups and things like that
I think that the community is sort of like the undiscovered Dimond you're
gonna find the real value is in growing your network with these communities and
we have some really cool ideas that we're gonna introduce next year about
how the communities can go even deeper and have like expert forums and things
like that but we're gonna save that for later right now I just want you to
realize that the community is going to be something that I think adds
tremendous value and the more that you participate in the more questions that
you ask and the more questions that you answer the more valuable the community
is I'm one guy you're hundreds of people that have expressed interest in growing
your business and your entrepreneurial endeavors and you all have resources
let's grow this thing together speaking of community let's talk about the fourth
seed the buyers club you know and we know that getting more like-minded
people together and forming a consortium has more buying power than any one of us
out on our own so consequently we're gonna use that to
our advantage we're gonna go out and we're actively discussing with vendors
of products and software and tools and things that we need to grow our business
to get a discount for everybody who's a paid member and at the same time any
products that we introduce that we go out and we source and we create and we
sell you get a lifetime 10% discount because we know these products are
really going to help you whether it's scale more save money whatever it is 10%
discount and that's the fourth C a buyer's club so that's
overview now let's get a little bit more specific we're gonna create two
different tracks we're gonna create the bachelors track and the master's class
let's get started with the bachelors so who's it for it's really comes out to
two different categories it's for people that have never gotten started on Airbnb
and want to get started or for people that have one or two listings and
they've been doing it okay and it's working out okay and they see signs of
like life and they want to get better they want to optimize their listing they
want to generate better results and if I do my job right I'm hoping to inspire
you to say gee this side gig could actually be better and more
opportunistic and richer and a bigger part of my life and then you would go
towards the master's class but let's talk about the specifics in the
bachelors class so here's what you're going to get here's the course that
we've developed right now and realize this is a work in progress it'll be
refined it'll be added there's constant new things that are coming on but here's
what we're starting with we're talking about optimizing your listing things
like your title your photography the thumbnail the description we're gonna
talk about pricing we're gonna talk about operations we're gonna talk about
hospitality we're gonna talk about bookkeeping in taxes so as you know you
also get access to the private Facebook group and that's gonna be people in the
bachelors tract they're gonna have the same sort of questions and the same sort
of ideas and that's gonna be a great tool for us as well now I'm gonna be
there personally answering your questions so our experts so it's gonna
be fantastic for you to grow your business now in order to do this right
we think it's really prudent to limit this to a hundred people a hundred
charter members I happen to think we're gonna open and close on the same like
day because we have many more than a hundred people already like signed up to
be notified so if this is something that sounds like it's interesting to you and
you want to be part of the launch community the Charter membership and
we're gonna talk about some of the benefits later but you want to go ahead
and sign up I just know that in order to help people as best as possible we want
the right people and the right people are gonna be the most eager and most
excited and those are the people that we're gonna have like a real impact on
so we think to start we're gonna limit this to a hundred people and I'd
encourage you if this is something you take seriously to be one of those so
let's turn our attention to the master's program and who this is for this is
custom tailored for people that know they want to be a real estate
entrepreneur maybe you've been on Airbnb at home way for a long period of time
maybe you have multiple listings maybe you aspire to have multiple
listings and have this be like your full gig going from a side gig to a full gig
the master's program and the content that we're developing there is
specific for you now I do want to also mention this in addition to the master's
program you get all of the content that we've created for the bachelor's program
and also access to the Facebook group there as well and the reason we're doing
that is because we know it's super important to have all of your foundation
items like super strong and best practices and so we encourage you to go
ahead and spend the time and energy reviewing all that content making sure
you're completely buttoned up so that when we're building our like high-rise
building the foundation is super strong let's go ahead and turn to the contents
specifically that we're creating for you we're starting with an assessment we
want you to take an inventory of where you are in your business what's your
current revenue what are your expenses where can you save money what's your
credit score taxes and accounting and how you build your team just scale how
you get financing how you research new properties creative strategies to help
you grow your business and go to the next level specific items related to
scale like templates and virtual assistants and how you automate and how
you use multiple platforms and finally if I do my job properly we're gonna get
you to be a full-scale full-blown real estate entrepreneur with multiple
streams of passive income and you're gonna be in a place that you wouldn't be
otherwise so once again because we really want to have the deepest most
meaningful impact on the right people we're gonna limit this master's program
to 50 people we have more than that signed up we think we're gonna open and
close if this is something that you really want to do we encourage you to be
a charter member grow with us we're gonna grow with you we'll reopen at some
point in the future who knows when but right now we want to get the right 50
people on board we want to impact those 50 people we want to change lives so
let's address head-on the question that's on your mind and everyone else is
which is how much is this going to cost and I'm so glad you asked the bachelor's
class is 37 dollars per month if you prepay for an entire year we're going to
give you two months free so that's three hundred and seventy dollars sounds like
a lot but let me tell you something if I'm doing my job right I'm gonna put
five thousand or ten thousand dollars or more in your pocket over the course of
the year and not one year every single year I know I can help you I know you
can grow this business so if you're serious about it it's a small price to
pay commit your time your energy and your money to growing your business and
guess what I will help you and you will get there the master's class is $97 per
month same thing 10 months prepaid you get it
for nine hundred and seventy dollars for the year and if I'm doing my job
properly it's gonna be ten thousand twenty thousand even
$50,000 more in your pocket in year one and every year thereafter but much more
importantly we're gonna help you grow your business and scale and become a
real estate entrepreneur and I know we can do that so I think it's really
important to align the right people with their time with their money with their
energy with this class with me coaching you and experts coaching you to take you
to the next level so where does this all go and it really comes down to three
things and the first is the most important we want short-term rental
university to be a growing sustainable business for the long term so that we
can continue to add value to you like forever and having a steady revenue
stream is really important to help us invest in your future and our future so
we're gonna be doing this for a long time too
we want to make sure that we have the best industry conference ever we're
planning for it right now sometime in q3 q4 in an Airbnb friendly City and we're
also gonna do some really innovative things like I want to have experts tee
up some deals and I'm committed to having a deal closed at the conference
but these conferences if you've never done one are really expensive I'm being
asked to front over fifty thousand dollars in securing space and minimum
food beverage etc so we need some resources to make this reality this
dream become a reality and the third thing is research and development
there's a lot of ideas that I have about tools and and ways to grow our business
that are gonna help save you money and so on and we want to add these products
to you and again you get a discount on those but we need some resources to help
this business grow in perpetuity develop new ideas like conferences and three
develop new products and ways to help you grow your business specifically so
let's turn to the fun stuff and what are you gonna get as a bonus for being a day
one charter member we want to reward you for helping us and we really believe in
this so we want to make sure that your first month is like completely free and
what we're gonna do is we're gonna give you swag to offset your cost so if
you're a bachelor's member you're gonna get thirty seven dollars worth of free
swag the hats and those shirts that we've been designing and so on we've got
other things we're going to include and if you're in the master's program we're
gonna give you ninety seven dollars worth of free swag including check this
thing out brand new $50 bag here canvas tote boat bag I use them for everywhere
I go I travel with them I take them on the weekend but the point is we're gonna
give you your first month's payment in offsetting swag so you can wear with
pride and authority that you're a charter member and we're gonna include
all that we pay for ship it's all on us number two we just talked
about this huge conference we're gonna throw in 2018 we're gonna give you 10%
off the ticket and to celebrate we're gonna host a little party for day one
charter members you're gonna get together I don't know this could be
launch dinner drinks whatever but we're gonna party to celebrate our success and
reward you for being a day one charter member and three don't forget if you're
not thinking like an entrepreneur part of the course is to get you thinking
like an entrepreneur education is tax-deductible speak to your CPA but the
cost of all this 37 a month or 370 a year or 97 a month or 970 a year it's
tax deductible so you're saving almost half depending on your tax bracket so
it's almost a no-brainer lastly friends I really just have to
thank you from the bottom of my heart the time and the energy and the devotion
that you have to growing yourself and growing our community and helping other
people has been incredibly rewarding this is like a monumental step in
short-term rental University and in my professional career I've done a lot of
things in the past this one has so much of personal meaning to see people thrive
and grow and achieve goals has been so rewarding and I appreciate your time
your energy your comments your likes your shares I mean it's just who would
have thought that a free youtube channel would lead to anything like this and
it's just been amazing I'm actually excuse me choking up a little bit but I
really have to thank you and if this sounds like something that you want to
do we encourage you to join us on day one charter membership we're kicking
this thing off at 12:01 a.m. on Friday December 1st first 100 bachelors are
gonna be there the first 50 masters your day one charter members to and I'm just
humbled honored and so appreciative
