Meet Mike Hambright

Mike Hambright, Founder of InvestorFuel and Co-Founder of InvestorMachine, joins the show to share what separates the top investors in his mastermind and how to dial-in your direct mail to make 2022 your best year yet.

Direct Mail with InvestorMachine Episode Outline

0:00 Intro on Mike

Mike started real estate investing in 2007-2008 with his wife after leaving corporate America.

He did 65-75 flips a year in the Dallas market, got a couple of rentals and then started coaching. 

Mike helped build one of the biggest home-buying franchises but out of the business about 5-6 years ago.

This was the beginning of starting the InvestorFuel mastermind, he’s always been a community guy and a connector. That’s a big part of what defines Mike today. He’s been doing a lot of coaching mainly with established investors.

5:15 Investors Main challenge is Lead generation

Mike and team came up with a way to formulate data and provide a done-for-you lead generation service which is mainly direct mail, skip tracing, and list-stacking on steroids.

Texting and Cold Calling are under the microscope right now. Mail is simply not going to go away. Its reliable and allows us to target people.

Cost per deal has increased, so investors need to be more precise and less sloppy. Consistency in marketing and all your systems are crucial.

You can go the cheap route with direct mail or many things in life, but you get what you pay for.

InvestorMachine can also skip trace and provide the list for you to cold call and text.

“Hotsheets” every Monday morning go out to InvestorMachine for the hottest prospects after going through 40+ data points.

14:00 InvestorMachines’ Method

They are completely transparent about their method, it’s just a lot of work to replicate.

They take Base Data, refresh it routinely, and build on top of it…there’s about 40 different lists they go after 

Scoring properties: For example probate leads score higher than code violation.

InvestorMachine operates in about 250 markets and they’re able to update in real-time scores for each property and prospect.

17:00 What separates high volume investors

  • Mindset: Believing they can do it, getting around the right people and seeing whats possible
  • Doing everything just a little bit better

19:00 What is financial freedom to you

For Mike and his network, Financial Freedom is more so about having time than emphasis on money.

21:00 The White Glove approach with InvestorMachine

Real-time people to help with live customer support, account reviews to go through data and performance

Investors by nature are trying to “get things for the cheap”, which can be good to do things in life. When getting Lasik surgery, you shouldn’t opt for just the cheapest option

InvestorMachine clients get a 2-3x return in their direct mail efforts vs cold calling and texting.

25:30 Numbers around Direct Mail and New A.I. system

Rates the call as far as how calls are being handled, can score the call, and put it back into their data to do machine learning. Allow for more reporting on how their members are doing.

28:00 Jason Lewis and Mike becoming business partners

Jason joined InvestorFuel 3 years ago

Summer of 2019 InvestorMachine was first launched as somewhat of a beta service

34:00 Gratitude Journal

He’s always practiced gratitude, but the last 3 weeks has actually put a process to it

Mike has been trying to focus more on the specific things he’s grateful for and why
