In this episode, I’m joined by Michael Bartolomei of Launch Control to talk about why texting isn’t just a marketing tactic—it’s a foundational part of a scalable business strategy. If you’ve been treating SMS as a one-off tool or cutting it when money gets tight, you’re missing out on one of the most powerful ways to create consistent deal flow in real estate investing.

Michael brings deep insight from working with investors at every level—from solo operators to large teams—and he shares what separates those who scale from those who stall. We dive into the systems, mindset shifts, and tactical frameworks that will help you stop chasing leads and start building a real engine for growth.

Avoid cutting marketing during hard times—it’s your business lifeline.
