The Bubble Burst
I transitioned into real estate when the .com bubble burst and all my old business dried up. As soon as I got my license I tried prospecting REDX leads. Even though it was difficult, I couldn’t afford to get discouraged and give up — I had to make a living. I didn’t have any money so I stayed with family until I sold a few houses. Then, about a year into my real estate career, I got a coach who kept me accountable and helped improve my mindset and skills. That changed everything.
Got A New Money Mindset
It took me a few years in the business until I changed my mindset to believe I could and should make more money. I set a new expectation — a new goal for how much money I believed I could make. And then I made it. Since then I’ve continued to set, reach, and reset my expectations even higher.
Bulldozed Old Business
I built a successful business in Memphis, Tennessee before moving into a brand new market in Louisiana. I didn’t have any connections there, but REDX provided me with immediate access to income. They gave me numbers to make calls, get appointments, sell homes, and build a list of happy past clients. Working REDX leads created my Sphere of Influence. They essentially helped me build two streams of income: a past client database for referrals and new business.

David's REDX Setup
“What I love about REDX (for the simple man who’s a technology fool) is they make it easy to pick up the phone and make the calls. If you want something that’s user-friendly, something you can just log in to without being scared to make your first call, just call REDX. They’ll get you set up.”
