In this Motivational Monday video, Chris Pre uses a story about Clydesdale horses to illustrate how teamwork can produce outsized results in real‑estate investing. He explains that while a single Clydesdale can pull 2,000‑8,000 lb, two working together can pull 24,000‑32,000 lb—far beyond a simple linear sum—highlighting the power of coordinated effort. He then positions his own coaching business, Smart Real Estate Coach, as the missing “Clydesdales” in the education space, contrasting his hands‑on, results‑focused approach with other coaches who showcase flashy lifestyles. Chris outlines three concrete resources for viewers: (1) free books, strategy calls, and other starter materials at smartrealestatecoach.com/getgoing; (2) the QLS Home Study Course (now version 4.0) at smartrealestatecoach.com/qvspodcast; (3) the In‑the‑Trenches boot camp, a live‑call training experience, at smartrealestatecoach.com/ITTVpodcast; and (4) the free 3‑Paydays virtual event, a three‑hour intensive on deal‑making, at smartrealestatecoach.com/3paydayspodcast. He ends with a call to subscribe, share the video, and let aspiring real‑estate investors know that his team is ready to act as their “Clydesdales” to help them close deals.
Chapters
Okay. Welcome to this week's Motivational Monday. It's Chris Pre again. You know, guys, I was reading in a book lately. I love military books. I'm just drawn to them. So I'll go business, personal development, and then military. And one of the captains in this particular book was telling a story about how his, his senior enlisted, senior title person said to him, hey, how much weight do you think a Clydesdale can pull? And of course, this gentleman goes, I don't know, like 5,000 pounds. And he said, you know, you're pretty close. They actually can pull between 2,000 and 8,000 pounds, but no more than 8,000. So 2 to 8, Clydesdale. And this guy's thinking, why the heck are they asking this? And you're probably saying, why the heck is Chris bringing this up? Now, he said, how much weight can a team Of two Clydesdales pull. So now if I ask you, you probably go, "I don't know if it's two to eight thousand, then it's four to sixteen thousand," right? Which is how he answered him, and he said wrong. When they work together, two Clydesdales can pull twenty-four thousand pounds, and if properly trained, they can actually get up to thirty-two thousand pounds. Now why the heck am I talking about this with you guys? Let us be your Clydesdales, guys. There are no Clydesdales in the education coaching space right now, in my opinion. And I'm not poo-pooing on people I know, and I have friends in the business and I have people on my podcast. I'm not poo-pooing on them. I'm just telling you openly and publicly that the fact is there are no Clydesdales willing to work with you in the trenches. There are plenty of people selling you things online. There are plenty of people showing you their fancy rented castles and Lamborghinis. that they rented for the film shoot. There are a lot of that going on. You won't see that from us. What you'll see from us is we want to apply for the job of being your client's deals. We want to help you, train you, work with you, and get deals done. That's what we do. So I want to share that in this week's Motivational Monday, and then I want to give you some resources. I jotted down a few so that you don't go, okay, now what? So if you're watching these for brand new first timer or you've subscribed, I hope you subscribed anyway.

I want to help you get that. The link for that is smartrealestatecoach.com/qvspodcast. Now, hands-on experiences. I can think of 2 right away. One, we have the In the Trenches boot camp right here. I'm pointing to my conference room where 10 or 15 of you come in and there's 4 of us. We're doing live calls. Some of you will stand right here at my stand-up desk and do live calls with me. I will call your leads for you. When you're in here, or Zach will call them in the conference room, or Rick, one of our coaches, will call. We're going to be calling a few. That experience is by far the most effective thing we've ever done. Talk about being your Clydesdales and getting you trained up. The In the Trenches boot camp is an amazing hands-on training teamwork experience. And again, we want to apply for the job of doing that with you. To learn more about that, it's free for every level and every experience level in our company. But for you to learn about that, go to smartrealestatecoach.com/ ITTV Podcast.

Guys, on that, It's a 3-hour power pack. I'm going to help you get to the deal. I'm going to help you understand how we call, who we call, what we say. I'm going to help you understand how the deals get structured to help the seller out by the 3 ways we buy. Where do they fit? How do you know where they fit? That all goes on in these events. So when I talk about being your client sales and being on your team and getting you trained up, these— those 3 resources will do it. So subscribe to the channel. Make sure you share this with someone in the real estate space or frankly, someone who's trying to get out of the W-2 into the real estate space and let them know that we're applying for the job of being your Clydesdale.
