Liz,
I have not been to Rick's seminars, sorry I can't help with that.
My own thoughts- from one who has not wrapped.
a. Having talked with people in the last Freestylers meeting, I like a lot of the concepts which I was sceptical about before.
b. Rick Otton has a video available from his site
(http://www.creativerealestate.com.au) which gives you a video "free" (plus $6.95 postage and handling)- it gives you an overview. It's short, but shows the essentials.
c. The seminar is very cheap, so no harm to go to it. It IS called "Wrap Around Australia", but I'd be tempted to call it the "ric KOTTON WRAP" (or the Fine Otton Affair)
d. Obviously, expect the hard sell for the other bits. Don't expect to learn everything for $39- it can't be done.
For me, I'm very close to being convinced to pay for the Wrap Pack (which apparently gives ALL the paperwork you need to start in wraps, plus tapes and presumably instructions. (See
http://www.creativerealestate.com.au/the_wrap_pack.php). But I've just started a deal, and I'm sacrificing a short-term cashflow for (I hope) a long-term one. I cannot spare very much just now.
There's also a weekend coming up in Sydney
(http://www.freestyler.net.au/events/boot_rick.html) which looks to cover a lot. Between the pack and the weekend, I suspect you'd be able to start out.
Now, a question from me to the wrappers.
Just having started a deal (yes, Tibor, cash flow positive) which will not leave much to spare- is it possible to start into wraps without having too much equity? Or do you really need to have enough to buy the property and to wrap it to start in the business?
