Case Study
Brandon Bennett: $10,159
first deal in 21 days — more than 4 months at his day job · Wholesaler · Dallas, TX
Brandon Bennett, in his own words.
Outcome
$10,159
first deal in 21 days — more than 4 months at his day job
Timeline
~21 days from program kickoff to first close.
Before
Two years of books, podcasts, blogs, and courses (~$3k spent). Zero closed deals. A day job that paid less in 4 months than one wholesale check.
The challenge
Brandon had education without execution. Information overload from generic coaching mills, and no clear playbook for the messy parts of a deal — buyer-switching, owner-occupied showings, closing logistics.
What we did
- 01Cohort-style webinar program — small classroom feel instead of a massive faceless coaching list.
- 02Mindset reset first: replace the 'wholesaling doesn't work' loop with a positive, action-oriented frame.
- 03Targeted, market-tested marketing — start, measure, tweak, then pour gas on what's making the phone ring.
- 04Real playbooks for the friction points: cash-buyer management, owner-occupied showings, closing-day curveballs.
The outcome
First deal closed in ~21 days for $10,159 net. Brandon is now doubling marketing spend (without spending more out-of-pocket), running multi-property conversations, and partnering with virtual operators — all from one closed check.
"My name is Brandon Bennett, I'm from the Dallas area and I had zero real estate experience. I found Cory Boatright through Sean Terry's podcast — followed him on Facebook for about a year. I just closed my first deal: $10,159. As soon as I finished the program and implemented everything — got my mindset correct, started marketing — I had my first deal under contract in about three weeks. That check was more than I made in 4 months at my day job. I'd been studying wholesaling for about two years — reading blogs, listening to podcasts — but something wasn't clicking. I'd probably spent close to $3,000 on courses and materials before getting nothing done. I picked Cory's program because it was webinar-based, like a classroom setting — I wasn't just a number in someone's coaching mill with thousands of people watching outdated videos. I learned how to deal with cash buyers, how to show the house when it's owner-occupied, how to handle closing, and how to still get paid when your cash buyer decides to switch to a mortgage at closing — that one alone would have cost me $5,000 if I hadn't known how to handle it. I would have made over $15,000 on that first deal otherwise. Now I have enough money to invest back into more coaching — because the most important investment is investing in yourself. To anyone on the fence: you don't have to get it right, you just have to get it going."
