A short YouTube video (Mark Evans DM, uploaded Sept 23, 2022) addressing how to 'land bigger deals' in real estate. The speaker responds to a wholesaler asking how to move from small signing fees ($3k–$10k) to larger, higher-margin projects. Advice in this chunk emphasizes mindset shifts (think bigger; become the 2.0 version of yourself), geographic expansion (do deals beyond your local market), heavier marketing, and using the internet to access opportunities.

Hey, I just had a quick, quick question for anybody out there. I wholesale at Akron. But what's a good way for me to think bigger on something that, you know, I may only get a 3, 5, 10 thousand dollar signing fee? You know, how can I think bigger? Get into bigger projects and make more money? Number one, you know, listen, if you're fishing in the bluegill pond, you can catch bluegills fishing in the minnow pond. You gotta get that. Catch a couple minnows or go out in the fucking ocean, catch that big fish and feed your family for life. Like, dude, you have the Internet. You have online access. I'm sorry, I got to talk about mom and dad. I'm in cuss today, but I am in all seriousness, dude, like, you have opportunity to do deals anywhere. You're an opportunist. We all are opportunists in this room. You're using interesting words. Oh, it's just like, you know, just a little eight foot, dude, that's a game changer. You make 100, 200, 300 GS on those deals. Sometimes you got to get out of your market. You got to, you got to become the person you want to become. And you start doing what the new 2.0 version of you does. You got to market heavier, you got to go bigger, you got to go wider.
