Nicht über unerledigte Pläne reden

0:00I, you know, Shawn and I have done a lot of real estate deals together over the last 5 years. I would say we will buy a few hundred million dollars in real estate this year. I can get the exact number probably in a future video cuz we have a couple deals pending as the as the year ends. But, what was very interesting is that I have a much better understanding of the tax laws around it. So, this was a big W for us. I haven't talked about real estate in general despite having done a lot of deals over the last 5 years with Shawn because I didn't feel like I had the credibility. And so, I will probably and Shawn will probably as well next year we'll probably talk more about ACQRE, so ACQ real estate, because we have now gathered a significant amount of resources there that I think you guys would probably like that. And I certainly have enjoyed it because it was something that I felt like was a deficiency in my skill set in terms of investing that I wanted to rectify. And so, I've talked about it in many, you know, many years ago I've talked about it in some videos of like very tiny deals that I did, $50,000 deals, that, you know, didn't work out as well. I was like, "I don't know what I'm doing." And so, that is when I basically enlisted help. And I got people who are more experienced than I did and what I was doing and just try to learn from them.

1:01And it is incredibly enlightening and I very much understand the appeal of it now. And so, it was a it was a huge deal, huge W for us this year. And look, and I think it'll be a compounding vehicle for us in the future. I mean, this is a a lessons video for the year for me. And so, I'm grateful that we we took all the steps that we did this year in order to do it. Real quick, if you are a business owner and you are not growing as fast as you like, I'd like to give you a free gift. So, my team and I put together the $100 million scaling road map, which is basically 200 hours of us looking over all the portfolios companies we've had and what stages of growth they went through and more importantly where they got stuck and how they got past it. And so, we broke it into these 10 stages and we made this little kind of quiz thing where if you put in your business information, it'll tell you where you're at. And the most important part for you, what to do for each of functions of the business across product, marketing, sales, customer success, recruiting, IT, human resources, and finance. And so, no matter what you're struggling with, someone else has already struggled with it and solved it. And so, I'd like to give you this thing absolutely free. You can go to acquisition.com/roadmap, plug in your business information. And if you want us to actually help you deconstruct the business and you're trying to scale, we'd love to help you out. On the thank you page you can just book a call with my team and we will look at the business, see if we can help. And if we can, we'll invite you out to Vegas and we'll do this in person live.
