If you're a real estate investor drowning in leads, losing deals in your inbox, or still trying to manage everything with spreadsheets and sticky notes — this episode is your turning point. 🚀
Jason & Ian break down exactly how they’ve automated their entire lead flow using Go High Level — from cold inbound leads to booked appointments and closed deals. After months of testing, failing, rebuilding and finally mastering the platform, they’re sharing the full system so you can plug it into your investing business and scale faster.
🔥 In this episode, you’ll learn:
✔ What makes Go High Level different from other CRMs
✔ How to automate lead follow-ups without losing the personal touch
✔ The exact sequences Jason & Ian use: 7 touches in 7 days + long-term nurture
✔ How websites, funnels, cold calls & inbound leads all feed into one pipeline
✔ Why manual follow-up is killing your conversion rate
✔ How to use automations to run wholesaling, fix & flip, lending, and property management
✔ The fastest way to stop losing deals and start closing more consistently
🧠 Why this matters for real estate investors:
Most leads don’t convert on Day 1 — they convert through consistent follow-up.
If you're not automating email, text, and appointment-setting workflows, you’re leaving opportunities (and profits) on the table. With Go High Level, every lead gets nurtured automatically so nothing falls through the cracks again.
This is the difference between staying busy and scaling a real business.
