Robert Syfert is a real estate investor, mentor, and Founder of USA Portfolio Real Estate, a company focused on creating opportunities for clients to maximize their ROI through turn-key and wholesale investments. He has over a decade of experience in the real estate industry, initially becoming an investment advisor to portfolios valued over $2 million and has handled over 300 estates. Before being heavily involved in the business, he was first a loan officer in the early 2000’s who eventually owned a branch.

 

Today, Robert joins me to describe the essential aspects of marketing and how follow-ups separate the men from boys. He shares how he got started in the industry and why he chose to focus on turn-key investments. He explains why follow-ups are a staple in any industry and why a lot of companies fail to utilize the marketing strategies they use. He also offers advice regarding CRM software - specifically why any expanding business should use one.
