I read Deans book profit from real estate now in a down market. He has a section in the book where he talks about using voicemail and he gave a web adress Dean Grasiosi.com/24 hour script but when I type it in it doesent come up. He also gave out a website for buisiness cards and flyers which dont come up. Where do I need to look to get this information?

We had to get rid of it. Unfortunately, we got our toll free numbers through our local phone service and it was an absolute NIGHTMARE!! Long story, but they told me they could do a 10 minute outgoing, so I signed up for it and then found out they don't have anything longer than 5 minutes. So we tried cutting the script down, but it wasn't the same and so people were still calling to ask us more questions, etc... Sort of defeated the point of having the "sort & screen recorded message"!! So I cancelled it within my 30-day trial.
We are also waiting for our first deal to go with the one we read in Dean's book. Wish we had read the book BEFORE ordering the toll-free numbers!!!!! What a waste of time and money.

Hi jason just saw this post
Thanks for putting up the info I don't have deans second book yet plan on ordering it soon though I like the buisness card examples I'm at that action taking point right now, I reading through his first book a second time and I do have the course.
currently in the list building process so getting some card ideas will definately be helpful
I have it but I am confused about one thing . Dean's book talks about a special promotion that he has with coanetwork.com but I don't think I got any discount. My wife actually ordered the service and it cost $20 to activate and now we pay 29.95 monthly. It's not cheap when you have little money so I wish I was paying less. I was wondering if there was a cheaper alternative like a professional home mail box. I have to dig into that.
As far as the service goes, it works just fine. I have it set up with a general greeting and then I have 5 extensions that go into another greeting.
1- Investors
2- Buyers
3. Sellers
4. Realtors
5. Spanish
I want to add that preforeclosure script in Dean's book and hope that gets me my first deal.
Thanks!

Martin, I don't know if that's a discounted price or not, since we haven't looked into coanetwork yet, but I DO know it's way better than Verizon!! I'm so mad that I didn't read PFRERN first, before ordering our toll free numbers. It was $180/month for 2 lines, but each only had a 5 minute outgoing and 3 minute incoming message capacity. I still can't even figure out how much we paid to activate, as their billing system is awful (probably on purpose so you can't dispute anything).
Thank you for the info on coanetwork. It sounds pretty good to me! I'll let you know if we get it for the same price.
Have you had any calls to your number? I'm curious because in the short time we had our numbers we didn't find any success. (We're not letting that stop us, though! We will definitely order the service you have.)
Thanks again!!
Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. -- Henry David Thoreau
Wow that's a lot. You sure that $180 didn't include any long distances charges? I am not a big Verizon fan either and I think you may one to try mine. I would suggest that when you call to order, ask them about any special promotion through Dean Graziosi and let me know if it exists. I know that it comes with a lot of features because they give you a link that explains all its benefits. Unfortunately; I haven't had much success with it and only received about 3 calls. I probably haven't done enough marketing so I am not ready to give up on it yet.
MARTIN
FAILURE IS NOT AN OPTION!

Yes, it also came with unlimited long distance calls outgoing. But I forgot to mention that we also had to pay 7 cents per minute of incoming calls -- and we had DOZENS of wrong numbers!!!
I will ask for the DG discount when I call to order the coanetwork.com. Thank you for the tip!

Last year I set up my 1-800 number at a seminar here at LAX, it was a joke. $250. start-up and $59.95 a month did include long distance. I finally cancelled it last month. For now I am just using my personal cell phone untill I get my first deal. On a Budget.
LilyfrmL.A
We are in the same boat as you! No more room in the budget until we get that first deal!
Good luck to both of us!!

I had set-up my COA # by reading other's sugestions and the standard rate they have is $35.95. But that was before I got my book PFRERN and read in pg.82 5th paragraph that Dean had made special arrangements for us. So I call COA and tell them that I want to apply Dean's discount and they lower my fee from $35.95 monthly to $29.95. I was like Cool!! Saving money!!
Stop thinking just DO IT!
So the $29.95/mo is the discounted price? That's darn good!!! Do you have to pay for incoming calls or is that included in the monthly fee?
Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. -- Henry David Thoreau
My wife didn't tell me that she mentioned Dean's name but it appears we got that discount anyway. No you don't have to pay for incoming calls but I haven't had many of those unfortunately. I still have to read the instructions on how to use the service to its maximum.

I just ordered the 800 number that Dean recomended through this book, but I am having trouble finding scripts for it. Do we just use the ones about forclosures for everything. I just want to start with assignment. Also where do I find a script for the investers and people with loans already. Do you know how I find this information? I am not getting any help from this web site.
Thank you for your time,
Venus
I got mine pretty cheap@ coaphone solution.com I paid $15 activation and 29.95 a mo. I think thats a great price, it also comes with unlimmited incoming and I dont plan to use it for out going, just to do the siffting for me. It also comes with 10 extentions and a online office with added features. My only problem know is finding scripts for buyers,sellers, and investers. Any help is appreciated.
Venus
If you order the COAPhone, just put this number in as the referrer. 866-510-8060 This is the number for This site and associates you with the discount. Or if you wish you can use my coaphone as the referer. the number is 888-442-2320. I have been using mine for a few days now and it is really nice. Also supports incomming and outgoing fax(Outgoing gets charged 6.7 cents a minute).
You can view/listen to all of your voicemails/faxes online and you can get notifications sent to your e-mail or cellphone(also outgoing charge).

I signed up for the 800# on this sight as well, and noticed they have a strong referral program. You refer 3 people and your monthly charge is completly waived!!
We should all refer each other. Anyone who wants to sign up please reply privately for info to use me as a reference or someone else on this list and we will continue to receive our service for free!

Anybody want to trade web work for a copy of their recorded message (or even voice for me)? LOL I am not excited to do this. I am a perfectionist and this is going to take a few days of work if I don't get it right the first time.

It took me about a week to setup my voicemail script for my 800 number. It's not at all an easy task, but once you get it done(without so many pronounciation mistakes), it's well worth the time and effort you've put into it. Also I think that by us new members here using each other as referals makes alot of sense. I'd love to refer someone to get my monthly fee waived.
My voice is very timid in the recordings. It doesn't sound like it felt. I think I have to yell to get the effect I am looking for. Anyone here want to make $50 to record a buyers message for me? Send me a message. If you have already done it for yourself, it should be simple as pie for you.

I am planning to do the whole COA thing too. I am willing to say that one of you referred me. The first one to reply who is signed up when I get the money together asap will get the hook up from me. Anyone who reads this and doesnt have COA yet, should follow suit. We should just all create one long chain. Every prospective COA user should pick someone to have reffered them from this post. Soon we all could be benefitting from a very cool and free voicemail service. Does anyone agree?

I am fairly new to this site and desperately trying to catch up, but if anyone feels like being a hero and could possibly forward some ideas for 24hr scripts, I would be eternally grateful.(harmony-_-park@****) I have two extensions up and running but, I feel that I have come to some sort of writers block. For those that are willing- please advise! Thanks to all for their time.

I just found out from COAPhone that you can add more extensions if you run out. The cost is $10 more per five extensions.

There is a 5.9c/minute charge for call forwarding.
This is a great feature to make yourself available to incoming calls, you'll just have to decide if that price is worth it or not.
As for the referrals, should be start another thread, perhaps one more obviously titled, and get that referral chain going there?
When someone gets their 3 referrals they should update their original post to that effect so people can use others who haven't hit their 3 yet.
Anyone come across a Dean script for this audience?
And, how many times did it take you all to get the long '7 ways to avoid foreclosure' script just the way you want it?
I just finished my 24 hour message, with some hoops and herdals on the way and thought id talk about it in case anyone els is getting frustrated with the process.
First off(herdle #1) if you use the COA website suggested in Deans new book found here http://www.coatelecenter.com/adtracker.aspx you will find it impossible to upload a message recorded from your PC to COA if you are using Windows Vista. There is a PDF showing exactly how to format the wav file but it can only be done with the Windows XP voice recorder.
ok, so I partitioned my hard drive(I suggest using Partition Magic if your not good at partitioning hard drives) and installed xp on the other partition so I can do it the way it must be done for COA to except the file. Problem salved right, not quite.(always backup you stuff before partitioning a HDD or installing other versions of Windows as it may not let you get back to your pre-existing windows installation if you don't know what your doing. I am not responsible for your lost files)
(Herdle #2)you will find that if you are using Windows XP with more then 2 gigs of ram(I happen 2 have 4 gigs)and would like to pause the recording to catch your breath or take a break or whatever(which will be needed for a 5 to 10 minute recording), it will pop up saying "not enough memory to complete this operation" and there is nothing you can do to fix it short of taking out some memory(to 2 gigs or less)as Microsoft chooses not to fix their legacy software. Fortunately I found a way around that as well. You can download a free third party recorder like the one I used which is found here at http://audacity.sourceforge.net/?lang=en
(Herdle #3) I couldn't seem to change the format to the necessary one which is 8000 hrtz, 8 bit, mono, CCITT u-Law formatt with the third party software recorder. But what you can do is once the recording is complete you click on File, then click on Eport as WAV... to save the file with a WAV file extension(so the XP recorder can recognize it). Then you open your Windows XP voice recorder, and then open the new WAV file with the recorder, then you do as instructed by the PDF offered by COA Telecenter to re-save the file in the necessary format(Format-CCITT u-Law, and attributes-8.000 kHz, 8-bit mono, 7kb/sec) . Then you can upload the new WAV file with the now proper format onto the Telecenter website as your Greeting and within a few minuts you can call your new 800 number and make sure all goes well.....PHEEEW.
If you would like to hear my 24 hour recording, you can go to my site by clicking on the link listed below(which is another freebie from DEAN by the way)and my new 800 # is on that page. Feel free to give me some feedback on how I can improve my message. Well I hope that's helps anyone whom is having issues similar to mine, and sorry again about posting in the wrong section as I could not find one suited for this subject(not that its not here, I was just not able to find it).
Respectfully,

I looked into COA first - because that is where Dean refers you to...When I started REI $29.95/mo - No Way I can't afford that. So I continued to price shop and find the best deal. My results...
First one - I thought was great because price was $15 a month + $10 for a Vanity# which is simply an 800# with a catchy name attached. (ex. 800-Need Help) with X amount of Incoming Minutes & Minimal Phone Features.
While always being focused on cost efficiency - I stumbled upon...
Second company - Who offered no set up fee and all the fun and cool fancy features for $20 a month and no setup fee. That is what made me switch. Price and Features for less, but again X amount of minutes. (I Still didn't understand why the incoming minutes were so important)
Finally back to my first option COA (3rd times a charm I guess)...
Third Company COA (Has been revamped from when I began 3 months ago) - Won't get into all that. What's important is what's offered now, for anyone interested in marketing an 800#.
800# is just 1 out of 4 marketing techniques I use, but this is why I believe COA still referred by Dean is the best:
1.
Those "X" amount of minutes from every other company out there whatever you pay/choose per month. When it's reached you begin to pay "Y" amount of cents PER minute over. Just like cell phones if you went over your minutes, you had a shock when you opened your monthly bill. (Same Concept)
So the true value in the service provide by COA through DG is the "Unlimited Minutes" that comes with the low monthly fee. My quest for cost efficiency as it pertains to my 800# marketing is finally over.
2.
All the "Bells & Whistles" and enough extensions to get a new person up and running are provide. Dedicate a portion of your day to watch and/or listen to the tutorials to unleash the full potential of 800# marketing offered by COA on behalf of Dean Graziosi.
Closing - More Calls + COA Toll Free Number = NO SURPRISE "INCOMING OVER THE LIMIT" MONTHLY CHARGES.
Hope this helps
