About This Episode

Every entrepreneurial leap begins with taking a risk. In business, big rewards almost never come without big risks. That’s why best selling author Geno Wickman has identified “risk taker” as one of the six essential traits EVERY entrepreneur must have.

Real estate investor Mike Simmons has been taking risks his entire professional life. Mike was the first member of the 7 Figure Flipping mastermind group to reach a 7 figure gross profit in his business in 1 year.

If you’ve been to Flip Hacking LIVE or any of the 7 Figure Flipping mastermind meetings, you know Mike is one of the people that makes the 7FF community special. He is one of the leaders in our mentoring programs, as well as the Director of Fulfillment for the entire organization. Mike continues to flip and wholesale 10 to 15 properties per month in and around his home state of Michigan.
