Give a little bit through 6 Degrees and Buy some GREAT Investor books.

What was the genesis of 6°?
"Accidental business - more me transitioning careers from sports marketing to financial planning.
Not finding much value with the networking groups I was trying."
He has always connected people via email and has gained a great reputation putting people together who mutually benefit and match values. The byproduct, he admits selfishly, was to get more clients for his financial planning business. The group evolved naturally and took on a life of its own.
- Founded 2007 with their first event.
- Started with monthly mixers.
- 600 local paying members.
- 60,000 attendees to their events:
- Events include: mixers, panels, CEO round tables, breakfasts. A lot of different options - not just mixers, but educational.
People are flawed in their thought process if you ONLY use online networking. It's a component, a conduit.
Like-minded professionals: Be out there - network of others to connect with and know a face to a name.
The intent is to make 6° a national organization with chapters.

"Networking is about farming: It's about building relationships and planting seeds."
If you take a tip from BNI or similar and you meet people who only want to network once in a while, it's like a one-night-stand. They're there to get what they can during that one time. Not really building a relationship. It's similar to dating.
It's not about YOU - how are you able to benefit their lives?

There is plenty of business for everyone - need to find alternatives when one person isn't a fit for Bryan - who can he confidently recommend as an alternative? That's why he connects with someone like Michael Wolf.
Time for author and Realtor, Michael Wolf.
He wrote his first book in 2010. Bryan asked what motivated him to do it, he told us, "There was nothing out that was current or not demeaning, '... for dummies...' The investor book is more for the individual who has invested in real estate.
it's for someone who wants investment real estate and doesn't know where to start.
It identifies what kind of investor you want to be: strip mall or condo?
And it gives you guidance regarding buy and hold, vs. buy and flip, this book covers these options and explanations."
If you don't own your primary residence, buy his first book. The first book gives a person a sense - the mom and pop type of investor - of understanding. His guide gives you the steps from the beginning - again, respectfully, but easy to understand.
The most important part of this book, "What kind investor you are. This is the only way to get to the core strategy that would be best for you."

Shout out to Mica and Tim Garland at California Preferred Escrow. EXCEPTIONAL customer service. Bryan is 150% impressed by them.
858-361-5533
And another part of his village: First American Title. Top notch professionalism.
Like Bryan says, "It takes a village for a successful transaction!"
In studio were, well, a LOT of people today - no joke. It was packed, all mics and chairs were filled, people were scooting around each other, it was a blast!
First visitor was Austin from FutureHomePhoto.com. They specialize in HDR photography. HDR photography allows you to capture the image inside the image with different levels of images that are combined into one seamless image.
It's the best way to replicate what our eyes see as a room and angle in a room change lighting levels.
619-417-2135 - text or call.
Zillow recently had an article which showed that using HDR photography gets at least $7,000 more in selling price. Article by Zillow based on their data they analyze - more people interested with good photos, then you get more potential buyers.
We spent most of the show with Joan Marie Whelan. Joan Marie is an accomplished Master Intuitive, Business Strategist and Lifestyle Consultant. She is a World’s leading authority on the teachings of Intuition and how to make your Intuition work for you in your life. Joan Marie has appeared on the Doctors, Ricki Lake, NBC, CBS and countless other media outlets sharing her gifts.
She has the ability to read your energy and share with you exactly when a disease began in your body. What emotions are still lingering in you and around you and affecting your daily life. She's a special lady and we are all so excited to have her on as part of our show.
Joan Marie had her hands full with all of the people in the studio wanting to hear from her and hear her readings. She helped to identify all of the talents waiting to be discovered in Bryan and Angie with music and writing.
She is the best selling author of Soul Discovery and enjoys teaching her many classes. For more information you can go to:

Who knew there were so many ways to smooth wrinkles

Welcome Doc Farnesi of Medical Age Management back to the studio.
Also on our panel we have the beautiful and talented Amy Scruggs who has much to share with us and needs your support at her upcoming Veterans Benefit Event/ and an event 9/17 in Escondido:
Business Salute to Police and Public Safety
September 17, 2014
California Center for the Arts
Escondido, CA
The Third Annual Awards Luncheon will honor those who serve and protect our region. The 2014 Awards showcase the dedicated officers, administrators, and community volunteers who have gone above and beyond in their duties. Learn more here >
Amy and Doc Farnesi are two of the show's favorites All of these great guests and my beautiful co-host Angela Moskovis is sure to make for a great show as always at the new drive time 2:00-3:00PM OR like so many of our listeners tune in while you work for some afternoon entertainment.
Sierra Pacific Mortgage is her "day job." She loves combining her music and job - it's all about helping veterans. And one of their biggest needs is in the area of housing.
One of Bryan's favorite doctors is here - a favorite because he is a firm believer in FUNCTIONAL MEDICINE rather than just patching up ailments with a treatment. He wants to know WHY your body is doing what it's doing. He says this is exhausting and limits his ability to cram a bunch of patients in his day. He focuses on determining the root cause and REALLY LISTENS. Bryan credits him with saving his life and giving him a chance at a great life.
Botox you treat the muscles. Over time, the botox relaxes and the wrinkles relax.
Filler is a physical push up of the wrinkles.
cheek volume, under the eyes, fine lines - thin needle.... there are tons of options that he covered. I'm dizzy just hearing them all. Never knew there were so many options. I'll keep my fluffy cheeks which keeps my wrinkles at bey, but makes it hard to button a shirt sometimes!
Bryan went on a RANT about agents who put offers with VA loans attached to the bottom of the pile. STOP DOING THAT!
We got into some pop-culture and the method of marathoning a series to catch up during off season. Bryan and Angie love The Goodwife.
Me, I'm partial to Grimm marathons. One season or more in one day - good lazy day thing.
We also spent time remembering 9/11, expressing continued anger as to the WHYs it happened. Bryan went on another rant here - deserved. You don't like our country and how we run things and enjoy things here? Get out, and go find a country that better matches you, but leave behind your healthcare, fresh produce, safe streets, clean water, indoor plumbing - just go to your "homeland" and get out. Leave us be, we did nothing to you. It's like television, if you don't like it, change the channel.

First impressions - dress out respect for yourself and your clients.

Keep in mind that it is impossible to UNSEE something that is disturbing online or on the television.
Choose carefully - what you view and what you post.
Our hearts go out to the families of the journalist who have met untimely, violent deaths. Angie talked about forgiveness is NOT forgetting, or condoning. We were talking about betrayal, murder, cheating. Not our typical upbeat conversation, but deep and thoughtful.
How do you feel when you get calls in the middle of the night? Anxiety levels are WAY up.
If my family - my house family - is all in the house, I turn off the ringers. My siblings and I have an agreement, if there is a death - they will still be gone in the morning - get a good night's sleep and we will connect in the morning. Every family does it differently. Most of the time, if I had it on - it was a wrong number or even the dreaded spam sales call - 3 am? Will I want to talk to you - uh NO!
We recapped a conversation about underwear from last week: Calvin Klein, Victoria's Secret. We all want to feel good under it all - need it fitting properly to have a comfy day. Don't forget the Gap - but remove the TAGS.
Personally, I prefer the new style of printed tag info without an actual tag. You can cut a tag off, but you still have the edge, or you an snip a hole in the garment or you don't' get the full thing out and now it's sharper than ever! I'd rather spend a couple of more bucks and get something comfy right away rather than having to make modifications.
Past 20 years - business and evening attire is more casual. This speaks volumes as to your level of professionalism
Agents that show up with shorts and flip flops with a client. Makes the client seem like an afterthought.
Wes talked about a test that was conducted on the street:
one man dressed casually, then he changed into business casual and then into a suit. When he crossed the street no one followed him until he was in the suit. VERY telling - he commanded respect and attention - he was someone to listen to and follow - he looked like a leader.
First impressions. You are showing how much you care about yourself and your clients. As a teen, I remember that the school staff loved dressy dances because kids acted differently when they were dressed nicely rather than costume events, or pajama party themed parties and dances. We usually carry through attitudes that match our attire. It will definitely give that impression whether it is true or not. Know that the first thing we are judged on is our appearance - they see us before they hear us. When you talk on the phone before meeting someone - SMILE - they can hear you smile - really!
Hat tip to Susan Finch (me) and my show on headshots with Yvonne Heimann. I talked about Bryan, Wes and Drew as GREAT examples of a professional image online and in person. When you deal with them, you know you have a committed, professional who respects you showing up!
We talked about the importance of Escrow & Title.
California Preferred Escrow - Tim Garland & Mika the escrow officer. THIS is our preferred company. If you are using a different agent (not sure why you would NOT use Bryan...) make sure to ask for California Preferred Escrow to be your escrow company in the transaction. Your agent should respect your request. BRYAN GARRITY would!
The escrow function - the intermediary - is to help everyone understand - don't go for the unknown, CHOOSE your escrow company carefully. Insist on the best.
