Q&A: Real Estate Scraping, Selling Spreadsheets On Etsy, Bookkeeping Basics & More⏐Ep. #115

The Koerner Office - Business Ideas, Advice & Deep Dives - TKOPOD.COM

I'm back with another Q&A episode! This week, I answer your questions about scraping commercial real estate for leads, selling custom spreadsheets on Etsy, and how to close more deals over the phone. Plus, I share my thoughts on the best type of side hustle to start, whether you should choose e-commerce or a service business, and discuss my framework for starting, holding, and selling businesses. I'll also tackle the question of how to stay motivated when you're already well-off, and offer advice on bookkeeping for all of your new businesses.
Timestamps below. Enjoy!
