Narrator [00:01:24]:
If you’re a real estate investor and are wondering how to raise and leverage Private Money to make more profit on every deal, then you’re in the right place. On Raising Private Money, we’ll speak with new and seasoned investors to dissect their best tips and strategies to help you get the money because the money comes first. Now here’s your host, Jay Conner.
Jay Conner [00:01:52]:
Doctor Gower. Welcome to the show.
Adam Gower [00:01:56]:
Jay, an enormous pleasure to be here. Thanks so much for having me today.
Jay Conner [00:02:00]:
Absolutely. I feel as though with your accent. I should address you as your majesty, but I’ll I’ll try to refrain from that. So it’s so exciting to have you here, Doctor Gower on Raising Private Money. I mean, let’s stop and think about it for a second. You’re the world’s foremost expert on crowdfunding using online systems to attract Private Money. And I’m the guy known for teaching real estate investors, single-family house investors, commercial investors, how to raise Private Money as well, but my expertise is not in syndication. My expertise isn’t what we call one-offs. And when we say one-offs, of course, we’re talking about you’ve raised Private Money, and now that private lender is loaning money on that particular deal and isn’t like necessarily investing in a fund. So first of all, let’s make sure that our listeners know exactly what we’re talking about. So we’ve got 2 different audiences here. Part of our audience is Doctor Gower, our real estate investors looking to raise capital for their real estate deals we have another percentage of our audience that are individuals that would love to be private lenders. So first of all, in your world of being an expert in crowdfunding. And I initially have two questions for you. First of all, what qualifies you to be an expert in crowdfunding? But first of all, explain to all of us What we mean by crowdfunding and what is it.
Adam Gower [00:03:40]:
Okay. Gosh. So good questions both. I’ll start with your second question first. So crowdfunding is the process of raising capital, from more than just yourself. Right? So if you’ve got a deal that you wanna raise capital for, and you don’t I’m sorry. If you’ve got a deal and you don’t have enough capital to finance it yourself, then you have to raise money from other people and that is nothing more than crowdfunding. Use the word syndicating. That’s all you’re doing. It’s syndicating your deal to more than one person. As soon as you do that, you’re you’re syndicating a deal. That is essentially crowdfunding. Now there are some misunderstandings about the term crowd funding. Technically, crowdfunding comes out of what’s called regulation CF for crowdfunding was part of the Jobs Act of 2012. That is a minuscule part of what real estate syndication is or online syndication, and the amount of money that is raised for real estate. It pales into insignificance when compared with another regulation, which was Regulation, 5 regd 506 c. And what regd 506 c did was it allowed you to raise money from anybody anywhere at any time. In other words, it allowed you to advertise. And as soon as you can advertise to raise money you’re crowdfunding, even though technically that might not be exactly the right term for it. Very good. So What got you qualified to be such an expert in this arena? Yes. What a qualification! Oh my goodness. What qualifies me? Well, so when the laws well, first of all, I have a Ph.D. in how banks syndicated the financing of, the railroads or the financing of, American industry and the late 19th century, and early 20th century. So let’s just start with that. Syndication of crowdfunding is nothing new America was built on it. Right? So that’s a starting point. In 2012, when the Jobs Act passed, it opened up syndication again or online online syndication. It opened up crowdfunding to real estate for the first time since 1933. And I won’t get into too much detail. Jay, I don’t want to bore you with too much history, but in 1933 after the great depression, Congress shut down, essentially shut down crowdfunding. Or syndication from people that you don’t already know. And in 2012, it opened it up again. And I was doing some seed and angel investing. I did very well during the global financial crisis when prices collapsed, in 2007 plus. And was doing some investing in small startup companies when the Jobs Act was passed. When the Jobs Act was passed, I realized that there was an overlap between digital marketing for the first time. There was an overlap between digital marketing and capital formation for real estate. So I started interviewing, members of Congress, people in the White House, lobbyists, and early adopters of what we are using, what we’re calling crowdfunding to learn what they were doing. What you’re like, where did it come from? How did it start? And what was the motivation for it? And so I started to track all of the top websites, Crowd Street, real crowd, realty mogul, and others, having gotten to know their founders, after the Jobs Act was passed, and we started to essentially reverse engineer their best practices, bring them in house and start applying those best practices to sponsors or to people that wanted to raise money online. And that’s how we got to the sharp edge of the industry. By learning from how others were adapting to this new environment, this new opportunity, to raise money online and then improving the systems that we saw them developing to to apply those to our clients.
Jay Conner [00:08:33]:
Gotcha. So you dove deep into this. So what are the benefits of using a crowdfunding platform for, you know, the majority of your clients which are, real estate investors wanting to raise money? Why crowdfunding? I’m sure the list is long.
Adam Gower [00:08:55]:
Yes. It is. So there are numerous reasons. And first of all, Although a lot of our clients do use some of the major platforms. What we do is we build platforms for our clients. So we build crowdfunding platforms for them so they can raise money directly. When you go to one of the big platforms like Crowd Street or Realty Mogo, you are essentially the m l it’s like the MLS of commercial real estate capital formation. Right? You go there and you can see a dozen different deals. So you’re on a shelf with other opportunities that investors can come and take a look at. What we do is we build platforms or websites for our clients so that they are the only their deals are on offer. Right? So these are bespoke, tailored, websites and systems for our clients to raise money directly. Now there are all kinds of advantages. First of all, you can raise a lot more money. Right? That’s kind of the number one. You can reach out to people that you don’t know, attract them to your offerings, and raise capital that way. And if you’re doing that all you’re doing is leveraging the internet, right? I mean, the power of the internet to raise capital. Think about what you and I are doing right now, Jay. I mean, we’re on the Internet, right? YouTube and, you know, whatever platform stream yard over here to, you know, to do the broadcasting. It’s gonna be on LinkedIn and Twitter for being my email. Be in your email, etcetera, etcetera. We are leveraging digital resources to project our message out into the world. And when you do that, what you do is you attract people you don’t even know. That’s how it works. For real estate investors who need to raise capital, the higher, the greater your visibility online on social media, on podcasts, or through paid advertising. However you do it, the more chance you have of attracting people to you who will invest with you. And that is, and I forgot your question.
Jay Conner [00:11:19]:
Well, the advantages, you know, the advantages of using a cloud platform versus you know, other ways of Raising Private Money.
Adam Gower [00:11:27]:
Well, look, you know, I’ve raised personally, I’ve raised over half a 1,000,000,000 in equity throughout my career. And the way that I did that, the way that it was always done, Shay, I mean, you’ve got a few gray hairs as well. You’ve been around before 2012 in this So the way that it used to be done was you would have to I mean, please say, though it is, you would have to join a country club. You would join a foundation, you get on a board, you go to conferences, and I haven’t even got any in front of me now. You’d exchange business cards. You’d meet people in person. And then you go back to your office with a stack of business cards and you’d start making phone calls or you might send a letter. Oh my goodness or a fax or, you know, you you give them whatever it was. Right? You would follow up in person. Now the laws require that that’s how you did it. You first had to establish a relationship before you could say to somebody, hey, you want to invest in my deal? It was all done in person. So it was done successfully, but it was a very, very inefficient way of raising capital when the laws were deregulated once what’s called solicitation was deregulated in 2012. It suddenly allowed you to advertise. Oh my goodness. Now you can go online. So what it does for you doesn’t eliminate the need to spend time and effort on raising money. You still have to work at it. All the tactics and techniques and advice that you provide, you know, your students is completely valid you still have to work at it. There’s no shortcut. The difference is when you’re doing it online you are leveraging the internet. And making the time you spend that much more efficient and effective. Instead of talking to one person at a time, like, you know, on your show instead of just talking to me, you’re talking to thousands, tens of thousands of people all at the same time. That’s the fundamental difference.
Jay Conner [00:13:38]:
I love it. I love this. So I want to drill down with you, Doctor Gower on the process and how this works. So first of all, your company builds the platform for your client. So, when we set the platform, am I correct in assuming that you’re your company is building a website for your client, clients that want to raise money? Right?
Adam Gower [00:14:07]:
Correct. Yes. It’s a lead generation website.
Jay Conner [00:14:10]:
Yeah. Got the website. Here’s my first question from an I mean, I’m a marketer. Right? I love I love marketing. Right? And so, that’s why it’s so easy for me to track a lot of Private Money, I suppose. But, anyway, my first question is, okay, you got a website Now, we all know. You can have the best website in the world. But if nobody sees it, it doesn’t do any good. Right? So, how does your client’s website do other people get to find the website and see what’s on the website?
Adam Gower [00:14:49]:
Okay. You are you nailed it so so much on the head there, Jane. You keep disappearing from my screen. I’m not sure. I would like to see you. Somebody behind the scenes is, is doing that. Yeah. I do like to see a reaction.
Adam Gower [00:15:03]:
It makes me think I’m, you know, I’m afraid you might have left I promise not to leave you down in the garage, but I’m just talking to myself.
Adam Gower [00:15:11]:
Anyway, it is good to see your face. Thank you for coming back. Alright. So, yes, you’re right. And you nailed it. If you build a beautiful website, that has, you know, all of all the components that you need to have on it. You gotta have educational content. You have lead generation forms. There’s some technical search engine optimization stuff. I mean, there’s a bunch of stuff that goes into a website. Even then, if you don’t it’s called driving traffic. If you don’t drive traffic to your website, it’s invisible. So the way that we do it is we take all the first thing we do is create massive content. You gotta have content. Like, you’ve written books. You gotta have content, you know, books, You have articles, opinion pieces, videos. It’s a lot of work. Alright? But the nice thing, by the way, is once you’ve done it, you only have to do it once. Once you build it becomes an asset to you and it just keeps on it’s like a flywheel. It just keeps on running in the background. So once you’ve built your website it’s repeated with all the content that you have articles, blogs, videos, etcetera, books, etcetera. What we do then is fragment all that content. So we take small bits of all of that content and we auto-post that to social media. So it automatically is posted. At the moment, I think I’m posting fewer than five or six times a day. And my peak, I’m maybe twelve times a day on, all social media challenge channels that matter. And so what that does is it starts to elevate your visibility. And by the way, the key pro tip here is whenever you do that, whenever you post on social media whether you’re doing it automatically or auto-posting manually. Always leave a way for somebody to follow up with you. Right? So there has to be what’s called a CTA, a call to action. So all of these posts that we put out there might say you know, learn how to, raise money from private investors, alright, or Private Money, Private Money. Click here to learn more, and that click here button redirects somebody to your website where prospects can come to get to and the 3 pillars, as you know, of effective digital marketing where your prospects can come to know, like, and trust you. All on their own without any direct contact with you. Isn’t that an amazing thing? You don’t have to use this device, or a phone to speak to anybody. You have to email them to Zoom calls. If you’ve done it right, they will find you on social media from your automated post or paid advertising. For example, navigate to your website, look at your look at your podcasts, look at your videos, read your book, and they will become predisposed to doing business with you. But the first point of contact that you will have with them will already be sold. All they will want at that point of contact is to be converted. They just want you to take their money at that point. They’re they’re sold. So that’s how it works.
Jay Conner [00:18:30]:
I love it. Now you mentioned paid ads. You mentioned your social media. So are your clients using both, or are they primarily using 1? Are they using just organic social posts on their social platforms? Or are they also using paid Facebook ads or all the above?
Adam Gower [00:18:52]:
Yeah. Okay. So — or pay-per-click
Adam Gower [00:18:56]:
So one of the big advantages I’ve found of having a podcast is that when I don’t know something, Right? If I’m kind of struggling over a concept of Samsung, I’ll give you a good example. DST, Delaware Statutory Trust. I still don’t understand what they are. I invited someone on my podcast to explain it. Right?
Jay Conner [00:19:20]:
And so, do you know, hey, look, that’s another advantage of being a host of a podcast. You get to meet some pretty smart people and learn some stuff yourself.
Adam Gower [00:19:27]:
Right. That’s all I do. The only reason I have people on my show is so that I can learn what they’re doing. Be surprised So please don’t hesitate. Ask me anything. Really? I mean that. So what we’ve found, is first of all, the way that I like to describe it, Jay, that when you’ve built one of these machines as we build, it’s like and you turn the machine on, it’s like cruising down the street in a beautiful car with a big engine, with a gas, a tank full of gas, and a and a great looking body, right, for people are looking at, but you’ve not got your foot on the gas, but you’re in drive. So all you’re doing is you’re just kind of slowly cruising down the street. So that’s what happens when you build one of these systems. You start to get a drip of prospects coming in. Now what you need to do to answer your question, you gotta put your foot on the gas the way you put your foot on the gas in digital marketing is, and this is what we have found works particularly well, paid ads Facebook is a is a very good resource, to, to generate prospects and to to, to build your business. Google is also good when you start using keywords.
Adam Gower [00:20:46]:
A lot harder. With Google, what we’ve found is that Google generally generates a higher quality of prospects. A prospect who is more likely to convert. Again, we’re in a yeah. We’re in the we’re in the world of of raising, you know, 100 of 1,000,000 dollars. So we’re looking for, you know, high-ticket, prospects. So Google works well.
Jay Conner [00:21:11]:
And and not to interrupt you down the ground, but what I love about Google, and I use both in my businesses. Like, I have multiple businesses, a real estate investing business, and a coaching business. I use Facebook ads and Google on all of those businesses. What I love about pay-per-click or paper lead. The difference between paper click and paper lead for our listener, of course, is paper click. You’re doing it yourself. Paper lead. You’re paying a any to do the paper click so you get the lead. But what I love about Google is those prospects are looking for you. They’re looking for you.
Adam Gower [00:21:47]:
Yeah. It’s so the difference is, the difference that you have just described, is what I call the moment of maximum intent. So with Facebook, what people are doing, they’re on their phone and, you know, they’re they’re scanning for funny cat videos. That’s what they’re doing. They’re looking at gossip from their friends, right? So when you advertise on Facebook, you’ve got to break their concentration and distract them from what they’re doing which is entertaining themselves. With Google, what you’re doing is you’re is you are showing up when somebody says how do I invest in real estate? That is the moment of maximum intent. So when you show up when somebody runs a search like that, they’re much more inclined to convert meaning to do what it is ultimately that you want them to do either buy a course or invest in a deal or whatever it is, they’re more inclined to do that. However, the cost per lead on Google. It’s significantly higher.
Jay Conner [00:22:54]:
My cost on Google is about four times more to get a lead on Google than it is on Facebook, but as you say, it’s a higher quality lead. They’re looking for you.
Adam Gower [00:23:08]:
That’s right. The conversion rate is much higher. You’re right. So, those are about the same stats that we have actually. LinkedIn is even more expensive. LinkedIn we find can be, gosh, 8 to 10 times as much to get a lead as it is on Facebook but the quality of the leads is also significantly better. So you’ve got to look at the entire economics of your entire funnels, to know what’s doing the best for you.
Jay Conner [00:23:43]:
So now my audience wants to get a big gold nugget right now. So here’s the golden nugget question. Okay. The lead comes in. Now, what do you do with the lead?
Adam Gower [00:24:01]:
Okay. So, that’s that’s again, so just to contextualize what we do. We are looking for people to invest in syndications. So we’re looking at minimum to bringing leads who are willing to invest 25,000 and up, right, in a specific year.
Jay Conner [00:24:20]:
Well, guess what? That’s a perfect fit for my audience because The minimum investment that we accept from people is typically either 25,000 or 30,000.
Adam Gower [00:24:31]:
Alright. So what we’ve found works the best. And if, you know, it depends on, who you are and your preferred way of doing business. I never try to force any of our clients to do anything that is not that that doesn’t dovetail with how they work and how they work the best. So I’ll give you a couple of examples. We have some clients who will nurture their prospects. So a lead comes in. In other words, a lead has filled out a form said here’s my name. Here’s my email address. Probably said here’s my phone number and then said something else about themself. Maybe I’m an accredited investor. Alright? So let’s consider that a lead. So some of our clients will then trigger, an automated welcome sequence or indoctrination sequence of emails, and they will only communicate by email. So that sequence of email of emails might include here’s an intro video. Here’s a little, you know, here’s the hardest lesson we learned paper, or it’s got a sequence of things that allows your prospect to come to, you know, I can trust you to get to know you better. Mhmm. And then once that initial sequence is over, you switch to a nurturing sequence depending on where you are in your deal cycle. If you got a deal, a live deal, you wanna introduce them to that. Send a link to a webinar. Invite them to a webinar. You want to be hitting them regularly, with the option to engage with you and to learn more. That’s some clients like to do that strictly email only. Mhmm. Then we have clients who like to make phone calls. Oh my goodness. That I don’t like it to do. But some of our clients love it.
Jay Conner [00:26:23]:
But my wife is not the gower. You should because when they hear your voice, you’ve got them captivated.
Adam Gower [00:26:29]:
Oh my goodness. I see. We just spend all the blooming phones all the time. I even switch my phone off during the day. I thought it’s it’s too distracting. Anyway, that’d be but that’s me. If you like to use the phone, then the clients that we have sometimes we will set clients up with a call center. So somebody submits a form on Facebook. They will get a phone call within 30 seconds of how he submitted that call. And that phone call will be from a setter. And the setter will say, hey, thanks so much for your interest in our deal with Conner Walker. Can I connect you with one of our investor relations, professionals? And then they will patch them through straight away that called a warm lead transfer. Or they will set up a time to have a call with one of those investor relations people later. So that is a process of making phone calls. That’s where you follow up with phone calls. What I will tell you is that Unfortunately, for guys like me who don’t like being on the phone, phone calls are the best way to convert people, unfortunately. You gotta get on the phone. I’m serious. You gotta gotta go.
Jay Conner [00:27:44]:
I was going to say you may find it hard to believe that, DeGara, but here in Eastern North Carolina, We still have handsets with cords attached to them.
Adam Gower [00:27:54]:
I have to wind it’s up to you as well.
Jay Conner [00:27:56]:
Yeah. And, you know, it’s like so many of my, listeners in my audience, in my followers. They don’t even know what a handset is, but anyway, I call this I call this device an ATM. So the more time I or any one of my team is on this device, the more money we make.
Adam Gower [00:28:19]:
Yeah. You are a 100% right. If you get on the phone, it’s, you know, when we scale clients, what they do when they’re when we’re scaling and we’re looking at pulling in 10.20 leads a day and it’s that’s a lot of that’s a lot of traffic when it’s all accredited investors. And they’re trying to keep track of that. The only way to do it is with phone calls. Just the only way. However, let me just give you some stats, some of our stats. I’ll be interested in yours. We find that, the number of people who pick up that we did a campaign recently last year. We’ve had 10,000 leads generated in 3 months. Lots of leads, 450,000 in ad spend. So 10,000 leads, 12% picked up on the on the on the phone. 4% book to call and 2% invested. So think about that. That means what my wife says is my superpower. My superpower is the ability to hear no a hundred times before getting one, yes but not being phased by that.
Jay Conner [00:29:31]:
Who’s my land? Do you know one of my favorite books?
Jay Conner [00:29:34]:
I was gonna see if it’s nearby. Anyway, It’s nearby, but I don’t wanna waste time. One of my favorite books is it’s thin. I mean, people can read it literally in one sitting. The power of no. It’s called go for no. Go for no is the name of it. But you know what, Doctor Gower? If you’re getting 2 or 3 conversions out of 100 leads, that’s phenomenal.
Adam Gower [00:29:59]:
Yeah. It’s pretty good. Yeah. It’s, I mean, against it’s how we build businesses. I mean, the nice thing is that those 98 people that say no or aren’t real in the first place, they still drop into your, into your lead gen funnel, right? They’re they’re parts of your ecosystem now. And so as long as you continue to nurture them over time, Eventually, they convert. You just keep working on those additional ones. Your list builds and eventually, they will convert.
Jay Conner [00:30:32]:
I know today can many times be a yes in 3 months, 4 months, 6 months, or even a year. Down the road.
Adam Gower [00:30:40]:
You are so right. Yeah. We’ve even got one client. I want the first thing I wanted to do was to, one of the first ways I learned this was The client came to us there, I don’t know, 40, 50,000 people on their list. And I said, well, how how, like, where did they come from? So I’ve known these people you know, for years years years, he said. So, Solissa, we need to purge this list to increase your open rates because their open rates were very low. He said not. He said, we occasionally, I’ll get we’ll get somebody who has been getting my emails. Please say, recently, it just happened. For the last 4 years, they’ve been getting my emails. And suddenly out of no way, he signs a check for 250,000. Like, there’s no way that I’m purging my list.
Jay Conner [00:31:24]:
Absolutely. I mean, why would you purge your list anyway for goodness’ sake? And I know some people talk about, oh, you don’t wanna hurt your open rate and all that kind of stuff. But you never know who’s gonna who’s gonna I mean, Doctor Gower, I got a couple more very important questions, but we got some folks that might need to jump off and I don’t want them to jump off until they hear how they can connect with you and your team and help them raise a lot of money, and syndication for their deals.
Adam Gower [00:31:53]:
Thank you, Jay. So the best way to find me is a www.GowerCrowd.com. That is my last name, www.GowerCrowd.com. And, I have a newsletter. It’s a free newsletter. It goes out every Wednesday. It covers the whole world of real estate syndication and crowdfunding, and we are focused at the moment on discounted distressed deals, how to find them, and how to invest in them. And, for those who are struggling with how to structure capital calls, that’s going into a little bit more detail. Capital calls and rescue capital. So in this in these tough times, it’s a it’s a really good resource, all that www.GowerCrowd.com.
Jay Conner [00:32:40]:
Oh, them. So be sure and check out www.GowerCrowd.com. So one last question I’ll let you go, Doctor Gower. What about, security concerns, or what about the, you know, SCC concerns how, since, you know, we can legally openly solicit, but, of course, there we can openly solicit unless we follow the rules, of course. And so, how how do you help ensure your clients that they are SEC compliant, with their website out there?
Adam Gower [00:33:25]:
Right. I have a rule for that. I’m glad you asked. My rule is the AA rule. And anything to do with legal questions like that. The AA rule kicks in, ask an attorney. I’ve said before. I don’t give legal advice.
Jay Conner [00:33:44]:
I tell people all the time. I’m not an attorney. I never played an attorney on television. I can teach you what has worked for me and how I have been successful, but you always need to do your due diligence. Absolutely. Doctor. Gaur, what a pleasure.
