Click here: https://objectionproofselling.com/millionaire Brent Daniels flew into Phoenix to sit down with Steve Trang on the Disruptors Podcast and deliver one of the most contrarian conversations in wholesaling in 2026 — going from a 385 credit score to over $20 million in real income using a philosophy so simple it sounds wrong at first: just talk to people. Brent is the founder of Talk To People and the face of Wholesaling Inc, has coached over 8000 wholesalers throughout his career, runs a lean three-person acquisition team targeting $3 million in annual revenue, and recently made $102,000 from a deal that his AI bot set on the 4th of July while his team was completely off. In this episode Brent breaks down why 90% of the competition that was in wholesaling in 2021 has already disappeared and why that makes now the easiest time in history to do deals, why your trash can is the most important tool in your business, why motivated sellers love motivated buyers and what that means for how fast you need to call your leads, and why the wholesalers who scaled big between 2020 and 2022 are quietly getting back into home services because they took home far less than the lean operators who stayed small. Brent and Steve cover why building a big team in wholesaling almost always reduces what you take home rather than increasing it and the surgeon versus hospital owner framework for figuring out which type of operator you actually are, why inbound PPC leads from Google outperform every outbound strategy Brent has ever tried and what th

In this episode Rob breaks down how his monk training gave him a psychological advantage that no sales course teaches, why he spent his last $1,000 on skip tracing before his first deal and made it work, how his team locked up $500,000 in equity in the first 30 days of switching to curative investing, why his 10th phone call ever in a new strategy produced a $90,000 net profit deal in North Charlotte, and how the same ego dissolution frameworks he built in the nonprofit — including the Tragic Four and the Four Rs — became the cultural foundation of a seven figure real estate operation.Rob and Steve cover the curative investing model in full — buying properties that cannot be sold due to title issues like co-owner disputes, probate clouds, liens and uninsurable title — and why this strategy has almost no competition because most investors are unwilling

Click here: https://objectionproofselling.com/millionaire Michael Hunter drove up from just down the street to sit down with Steve Trang on the Disruptors Podcast and expose the biggest lie in the personal branding and influencer industry — the belief that more followers equals more money. Michael is the founder of PersonalBrand.com and Spiffy Checkouts, has served as an external CMO for Brendon Bouchard where he helped build his entire internal marketing team and ran his launches from 2015 to 2017, has worked with Jim Kwik, Harvey McKay, Pete Vargas and dozens of other major names, and has powered over one billion dollars in creator revenue through his systems and software. In this episode Michael breaks down why most influencers with massive audiences make almost no money and what separates the creators who actually get rich from the ones who go viral and stay broke, the four stages of a personal brand business from zero to seven figures and the specific mistake most people make that keeps them stuck between stage one and stage two, why the invisible tax is silently driving away your best clients before they ever reach out to you, how his client Eliza went from a $5K keynote she could not raise to a half-million dollar corporate contract in under a year by discovering the single word that connected her entire life story, and why fulfillment and getting clients predictable repeatable results is the only thing that actually builds a brand that lasts. Michael and Steve cover why follower count is the wrong metric to obsess over

In this episode the three hosts break down why most real estate investors have been evaluating tools through affiliate links and guru recommendations instead of sitting down with the actual technology, how Objection Proof AI booked over 9000 appointments with zero human involvement using AI voice agents, why AI made Steve Trang's company hire more people not fewer because output increased so dramatically that they needed more humans to fulfill the new capacity, why Jordan's framework of treating AI as a digital employee rather than a standalone tool is the single biggest shift that separates investors who get leverage from AI versus investors who just buy subscriptions they never use, and why Stephanie built this event out of frustration that over 100000 real estate investors doing serious volume in the United States had no dedicated technology event where they could put their hands on the keyboard and actually build the tools rather than just hear about them.Stephanie Jordan and Steve cover why Meta is sending two senior executives who manage tens of millions of dollars in real estate advertising spend to sit one on one with operators at the event and share exactly what is working inside Facebook and I

Chip spent ten years as a professional online poker player, never held a traditional job, and used the same statistical targeting philosophy he developed at the card tables to build a wholesale real estate operation that went from one man doing 36 deals a year to a lean two-person partnership closing 450 deals across Austin Houston and Dallas. In this episode Chip and Zaman break down exactly how they went from a one man show to 450 wholesale deals, why Chip's poker background gave him a targeting system that most real estate investors have never heard of, how finding the most motivated sellers instead of marketing to everyone is the single biggest competitive advantage in wholesale real estate today, why Chip stopped doing sales the moment Zaman joined and deals immediately doubled, how they pivoted from virtual statewide operations across all of Texas to focused in-person appointments in Austin and why that single decision transformed their closing rate, and what the division of roles between a visionary strategist and an elite closer actually looks like inside a high-volume real estate operation.Chip and Steve cover the bomb hunting strategy Chip developed as a professional poker player and exactly how it applies to finding motivated sellers in real estate, why marketing to everyone is the most ex

Brandon has been one of the most trusted names in real estate PPC since 2017 and his clients have collectively generated over $50 million in wholesale fees through Google Ads, Facebook Ads and SEO. In this episode Brandon breaks down why most real estate investors are wasting their entire PPC budget on the wrong keywords, how his team analyzed over 40,000 search terms and millions of clicks to build a proprietary keyword model that delivers as few as 11 motivated seller leads per contract, why a solo operator spending $10,000 a month on Google Ads is on track to hit seven figures in revenue this year using a single marketing channel, why smaller leaner real estate teams consistently outperform larger ones when the marketing is done right, and why the gap between a good motivated seller lead and a great one is getting wider in 2026 and what that means for how you should be structuring your campaigns right now.Brandon and Steve cover the three jobs of a CEO that cannot be delegated and how Bran
