How to Find & KEEP the Perfect Virtual Assistant

Working intimately with so many entrepreneurs, I’ve heard a lot of horror stories about virtual assistants.
Tales of mis-hiring, terrible work quality, overbilling, identity theft…
I even heard one story about a new VA taking off to Central America never to be heard from again.
(Okay, that one actually happened to ME!)
I’ve been through it all — good …

David “The Diamond” to Host 2 Full Days of Short Sale Mania THIS WEEKEND!!!
For Immediate Release
“THE DIAMOND” TO HOST 2 DAY SEMINAR THIS WEEKEND - APRIL 19 AND 20th - TWO FULL DAYS OF ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW TO SUCCEED IN SHORT SALES!!!
Become an expert in short sales TODAY!
Real estate investors, those who want to get started and industry professionals…
Somerset, NJ - David “The Diamond” Oswald, Founder of Rivers of Income LLC will be conducting a short sale extravaganza seminar this upcoming Saturday, April 19, 2008 from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PMand April 20 from 12 noon until 6:30 PM at the The Ramada Inn, right off of exit 12 on Rte. 287. The official address for the hotelis 60 Cottontail Lane in Somerset, NJ 08873. The number to the hotel for directions is 732-560-9880.
On the First Day, Oswald and 4 other guest speakers will be discussing everything you need to know to get started in the business of short sales. In addition, there will be topics discussed such as how to get your buyers the money they need through financing (using hard money and other programs), negotiating your deals the RIGHT WAY, strategies to influence the BPO and all the new information needed to keep up in the world of short sales.
In addition to being an investor and public speaker, Oswald offers a one on one mentorship program to teach others how to get involved in real estate on a part time basis with little or no money. Local investors who have gotten involved in his mentorship have already benefited from the business systems that allow them to focus on putting properties under contract and not worry about dealing with banks and marketing.
On Day 2, Oswald will be hosting “Salesmanship, Scripting and the Short Sale,” a class which complements the first day and will concentrate on the art of communicating with everyone in the short sale process. This class is THE MISSING LINK for most people out there who just can’t get over the hump of closing a deal. You see, many of the students who get into the business of becoming short sale and foreclosure investors find that one roadblock in particular continually seems to stretch them….and that roadblock is dealing with all the parties involved in any transaction. And not only dealing with them but also having them see your situation for what it is and agreeing that your solution is the right one.
That’s why this is an art. An art that you MUST LEARN. How you present a situation will determine as to whether or not it happens. Do you believe that? If not, you should. Questions like, how can you tell if they are really motivated or just pulling your chain? When should I go out to the house and when should I just handle an issue over the phone? The biggest one I get is “How should I answer that question?” This might be in response to a spouse who has said that he or she needs to talk to his or her significant other before moving forward. Or how do you respond to a question that you really don’t know the answer to without stopping the forward progress of a phone call or a closing? Or better yet, what if there is a question that really does not have a ?yes’ or ?no’ answer to it. How do you respond to that and still get it going FORWARD. Not at pause, not at “let me get back to you” but FORWARD.
Many of the students have said, “Dave, you seem to handle these situations as if you’ve been prepared weeks in advance for the question, how do you do that?” Well, the answer is that I understand the fundamentals of this game called communication. I understand that there is a RIGHT TIME for everything. The RIGHT TIME to listen, the RIGHT TIME to educate, the RIGHT TIME to inject HUMOR, the RIGHT TIME to CLOSE…you get the picture. Ladies and Gentlemen, this tool has been the NUMBER 1 thing that I’ve been able to utilize not only in business, real estate and short sales but also in the game of LIFE. Just as you are a student RIGHT NOW, I have been a student of this topic before, I’ve worked it, practiced it and made it a part of my life and now I AM WILLING TO TEACH IT TO YOU…but only under certain conditions. You must come ready, willing and with an open mind and willing to practice something that at first will seem a little counter intuitive and strange. But trust your fearless leader, I will take you there.
If you’ve already registered for “SHORT THAT SALE” on April 19 and you want to add “Salesmanship, Scripting and the Short Sale” call Jill now at 207-838-1010. If you’ve already participated in “SHORT THAT SALE” in the past and you want to only attend “Salesmanship, Scripting and the SHORT SALE,” on Sunday, April 20, then simply call Jill and register for only that class. Do you want to take your investing up another notch? Then be there.
As usual, I have the best price points around and will be offering the entire one day seminar for only $397 (per person) for one day and $697 (per person) for the two day. It doesn’t get any better than this, guys and girls. If you come to me at the end of the seminar and tell me that it was not worth every dime, I will refund your money. It’s that simple.
One more bonus, attend “Salesmanship, Scripting and the Short Sale” on April 20 and you can attend that same class for the next calendar year FREE OF CHARGE, over and over again. It doesn’t get any better than this. The venue will be set up auditorium style with tables, so attendance is limited to the first 25 people. With your attendance, you will received 7 bonuses including a one hundred and twenty page workbook, all the contracts needed for success and David’s ebook, “101 Ways to Outsource Your Life and Business.” RSVP NOW to Jill at 207-838-1010. It’s Your World, Your Way!
The real estate market is in a slump, and experts are predicting that this will continue through the rest of the year with only a slow recovery in 2010. The new government is trying to accelerate that process, and seeking to restore value to the housing which many people own.
The cautious will stand back and see how it all shakes out over the coming years. Fervently hoping that their own homes will not become worthless, they warily watch the unfolding of events in a helpless state of disbelief. When the market recovers, and the house prices return to a normal relationship with average incomes, they will congratulate themselves that they were able to hang on.
Meanwhile, those who seized the opportunity and studied the process of real estate investment, including short sales and lease options, will be steadily building their portfolio and accumulating wealth so that the recovery in the housing market will see them positioned as millionaires and able to suit themselves with regard to where they live and how much they work.
Both groups will feel that they have survived the housing crisis, and may congratulate themselves that they lived through the worst financial crisis for 80 years and emerged on the other side. The cautious will think that they did okay, but the real estate investors will know that they did very well.
As you are smart enough to be reading this, you already know how to separate yourself from the also-rans. Money flows to those who do something, and seeps away from those who just think about it, and that is a natural law in every aspect of life. The fear of making mistakes affects us all, and is only overcome by accepting that to make a mistake is a very positive lesson, and advances our knowledge and experience in the direction we are taking, bringing us closer to our goals. The person who wins is the person who has tried just one more time than he has failed. Make a plan, set your sights, and start working towards your success.
