    It's not 80/20, it's 80/20 squared.

Real, actionable ways to cut your hours while increasing your income. Want to know how to do it in your own business? Get this and find out! ~ Jonathan Mizel In Work Less, Make More, James proves that keeping your business strategy simple produces far greater success (and happiness) than if you focus only on 'hustling'. ~ John Reese James possesses a 'no-holds barred' approach to business which frees him to think outside ingrained assumptions regarding one's current realities and future opportunities. His candid advice in Work Less, Make More provides bold and practical wisdom for any person, of any vocation, who wants to lift the lid on their creative potential and move into unexplored territories of freedom and opportunity. ~ Ian Freestone I found Work Less, Make More--part memoir, part how-to guide--to be truly extraordinary! James brings his unique analytical insights about how to think regarding complex issues in business. He describes the systems that he has designed to shape both meaningful work and relationships,as well as, a life worth living. Now isn't that what we all want? So many authors attempt to "motivate" you,without giving any real instruction. I find that James provides both. Every page is full of so many principles, wisdom and insights--and I love how James incorporates his history and his life in such a thoughtful way. His book has already changed how I think about making decisions in my life and in my business. It's a must read. Highly recommended. ~ Tim Papadopoulos ---- In 2006, whilst working in a full-time job, James Schramko wrote this in a notebook: MY GOALS … create automated income so that I am independently wealthy and enjoy my life passionately.

Leveraging his knowledge and experience, they were able to make more money while reducing their work hours. Significantly. This freed them up to spend more time living. It’s easy to think working less and making more is something available only to a blessed few. But James has proven over and over again that this is not the case. All you require is: • An open mind, • The ability to focus on what’s important, • An understanding of business models, and • A willingness to challenge your assumptions. Work Less, Make More will break down all the barriers standing between you and the above. It will teach you how to effectively leverage yourself, your team and your business via: • Increasing your personal effectiveness • Planning and goalsetting • Learning focus and the power of 64:4 • Building a team • Creating an offer that converts • Leveraging the Profit Formula to boost cash flow • Understanding the importance of Customer Lifetime V

    The passive investment strategies for wealth building and income generation described in this book have traditionally been used by some of the world’s most sophisticated institutional investors, but are now available to nearly everyone thanks to recent regulatory changes. This handbook will guide you through the process of building your own diversified real estate portfolio by identifying and making investments with established and experienced private real estate operators. This is NOT another get-rich-quick real estate fix & flip scheme. You will NOT be encouraged to sign up for conferences or clubs to learn a no-money-down investment strategy. This IS a practical guide meant to help you avoid common mistakes and navigate more skillfully through an often byzantine industry. You will learn: - What a private real estate investment is; the mechanics of syndicates, funds, and crowdfunding - Fundamentals of basic real estate evaluation - How to evaluate operators and investments - Fees, incentives, and other loads - Common terms and structures - Strategies to evaluate and manage risk - How to create and execute a personalized investment strategy Most people underestimate the time requirements, complexity, risk, and general brain damage involved with buying real estate directly. Thankfully, private real estate investments provide most of the same benefits as direct ownership, while taking advantage of established real estate companies’ years of experience, market knowledge, industry reputation, negotiating leverage, and expertise. Even better, they allow investors to diversify their investment allocation across a range of real estate product types (multifamily, retail, office, self-storage, etc.) and throughout the capital stack (equity, debt, mezzanine, and preferred equity), all while working with specialists in each strategy. Written by an experienced practitioner with over $3 billion in transactional experience, this book challenges conventional wisdom and provides an inside look into how the industry actually works. Using the practical tips and strategies found here, you can build your own unique real estate portfolio, manage risk, avoid common mistakes, hopefully make money, and perhaps even have some fun along the way.
