E54 - Committing to Self-Education and Leveraging Virtual Assistants with Bob Lachance

Bob Lachance is a nationally recognized speaker, mentor and trainer who specializes in helping customers build their businesses through automation and outsourcing. Bob currently owns four businesses and helped start one of the nation’s largest real estate coaching programs. A Bristol, Connecticut native, Bob played ice hockey at Boston University, playing a vital role in their 1995 National Championship. With only two classes left to graduate, he dropped out of school and signed a professional contract with the St Louis Blues. At 30, with his pro hockey career over, he self-educated himself in real estate and began his career in the trenches as a real estate investor. He acquired his first flip in 2004 and has done over 700 transactions since then. He has also started two very successful real estate coaching programs, three virtual assistant staffing companies and much more. Bob is the owner of REVA Global LLC, which focuses on offering trained real estate virtual assistants to real estate professionals.

In this episode, Tyler and Bob’s discussion focused on self-education and how virtual assistants can be utilized in real estate. Bob shared his experiences of self-education, including lessons learned from losing $150,000 on a knockdown rebuild, learning from podcasts, pivoting from hockey to real estate, finding your purpose and why many athletes experience depression when they’re done playing sports. They also talked about how real estate virtual assistants can provide efficiency, scale and time freedom, with Bob comparing virtual assistants to in-house employees and explaining how his business trains virtual assistants for real estate tasks.

Other topics included servant leadership, overcoming shiny object syndrome, persevering through pain and more! Elevate Nation can learn a lot from Bob’s innovative thinking and his “learn it, live it, gift it” mantra.
