Eric Siu built $20M in revenue mostly solo through sales and content, but learned the hard way that starting a real estate business alone was painful. He argues you need to grind through the work yourself first so you actually know what to delegate.
I was like, like, man, I've made, you know, $20 million by myself basically. I had one closer like work for me for a couple months. I had a couple people working on my stock community, but for the rest of that time, it was me doing the sales. It was me doing the tweets. I've never had anybody write a script. I've never edited— had anybody edit a video for me besides YouTube. So I was like, I'm so cool. This is me. Total mistake. You know, as I look at my real estate business and my Airbnb business, when I started that and did it all by myself, it fucking sucked. It was horrible. Yeah. I wasted all my time doing it. You know, not to discourage anybody to do it, but that's kind of what it takes. You got to grind your teeth to get started and figure out to— in order to make the system and the operations and figure out what you're hiring for, you have to know what the tasks are people need to do.
