REI In Your Car 158: The Phone Is not a Cactus
Isn\u2019t it interesting that we use our phones for so many things these days\u2014except for calling and actually talking to people. I realized this recently when I was trying to make contact, but didn\u2019t have email addresses for a couple of people. Then it struck me (made me feel like a dork, actually) that I had phone numbers, so I called to get the emails.

In this episode, I make the point that this is true of us as investors\u2014we tend to hide behind texts and emails. But we\u2019re missing a big part of business-building when we fail to use the phone to talk to people.

I recently attended an internet marketing event hosted by Russell Brunson of Click Funnels. (A few months ago, I even interviewed Russell on one of my podcasts. Check out the link below.)

While at the event, I also met with Grant Wise who\u2019s doing amazing things for investors regarding Facebook ads. (I\u2019ll be scheduling him for a podcast interview soon.) What I learned from Grant points back to what I said about personal phone contact. Success is more than just a good ad\u2014it has to be backed up by a real live person. (Sorry, I called him Garret Wise, but it\u2019s Grant!)
