7FF 812: The 2 Skills That Helped Me Raise $1.8M This Year

August 20, 2025

About This Episode

I’m not the smartest guy around.

I wasn’t born into money.

And I definitely don’t have some secret “rich friends” club funding my deals.

But this year alone, I raised $1.8M in private money.

In fact, one niche marketing campaign we ran did $700K in revenue from just $21K spend.

That’s a 22:1 ROI.

And I did all of this with just 2 skills.

If you don’t control funding…

…you don’t control the deal.

That’s why most investors are losing to cash buyers.

But when you have these 2 skills… everything flips (pun intended).

Mastering these 2 skills is how I raised $1.8M this year.

And I first sharpened them inside the Flip Funding Challenge.

When I went through it earlier this year, I personally raised $370K in private money (that’s literally 20% of what I’ve raised so far this year).

The next 5-day challenge kicks off on August 25th.

If you’re tired of saying, “I’d do more deals if I had the money,” it’s time to flip that script.

My business partner Bill Allen is even sharing a phone call he had with an investor, so you can hear word-for-word his script and how he handles objections.

And by the end, you’ll have the 2 skills that put you in the top 1% of investors.
