Nathan Payne and his partner started a door-to-door real estate wholesaling business in Utah with minimal financial risk. Both had savings, their spouses kept steady jobs, and they trained a local sales team to scale the operation while earning overrides on commissions.
It's very flexible. We can like knock doors at night and work on real estate during the day, and we can even build up a team here in Utah and have people go sell, and then we'll make overrides on their accounts and we just train them and we'll manage them. He's like, okay, let's do it. So he quit his job. And a lot of you are like, whoa, you guys just went off and started being entrepreneurs. Look, he had some money saved up. I had money saved up from what I did. It wasn't that big of a risk on our end, and we were married and our wives had jobs. So that's the background story. It's a lot of people like, oh, what a risk. Well, not really, because it didn't work out, it'd be fine, right, for door-to-door. So I'm not here to flex and say, oh, you know, I made a big leap of faith. I just want to be an entrepreneur, and I did it.
