We hope all of our Ren Menions had a great holiday break. We did…family, friends, fun it was great!
On to today’s subject…What did the Ren Men learn in 2010? We learned starting a used car business may sound easy, but is hard work. Starting a great used car business, must be tremendously hard work (we wouldn’t know).
Here are some of our results from 2010: we purchased 26 houses (just over two per month) compared to 27 in 2009, not a big reduction. We have 15 of our 22 boxer machines placed, compared to all 22 placed in 2009. This is a big reduction, we need to look at our vending business, pronto. We produced zero information products compared to zero information products in 2009, right on pace!
What is upcoming for 2011? We are planning a kick-ass RV trip of some kind (we have had a Ren Menion approach us about being our tour manager and promoting us rock band style, we’ll get you guys some details, very soon). We are shooting for purchasing three homes per month, 36 in total for the year. We plan on finding 10 new, Annie Sorensens, Adam Bakers and Pat Flynns. You will see many more book reviews.
What have we accomplished during the break? Actually a few things. Our Ren Food Service is no longer. Grant sold our eight smoothie machines for nearly $6,000 and we recaptured some money from our initial 30K investment. We learned a valuable lesson, the Ren Men will not be in the beverage business (maybe, you just never know). Alan read two books over the break, the reviews will be coming up shortly. We have Adam Baker, consulting with us, today, on our information products/RV trip/life in general (we are hoping to capture video, but we don’t know if it will work out).
Thanks again, Ren Menions, let us know your New Year’s Resolutions.

Hmm.
I don’t remember any episodes about Ren Food Service.
Besides, it would be great to hear more about info product you are going to create and how far profitable your photo&video studio is.
Stanislav-
The Ren Food Service Group failed miserably. We never pursued placing the smoothie machines in schools so we recently sold the machines.
Info product will be all about our real estate investing techniques, our wheelhouse company.
The photo/video studio is not yet profitable.
