I bought a laptop and Landlord max software. It is very user friendly. It's AWESOME! I was able to add my 50 rental properties, invoices by myself. However, I ran into a license issue and the support was phenomenial. I received prompt responses. I love Landlordmax. I’m 20th century, never used a computer.

Crazy how that principle is soooooo right in almost any situation. I'm working on optimizing some things and we'll hopefully see results climb up for LLM next month like they did this month... I'd be curious to see which dot I am on that affiliate bubble chart ;-). Chat w/ ya soon, - Trevor Hey Steph,

I didn't realize it was so high for your product. I suspected it got great word of mouth, but 25% is still pretty high. We definitely get a much lower same day sales ratio. Which is also why I'm surprised by that metric for our affiliates. The good news is that I know why one of our top affiliates gets so many sales, and why a lot are the same day, but it's not our normal metrics. I always learn something when I analyze metrics.

Often because it had been recommended by a friend/colleague. Last time I surveyed my customers about this it turns out that 25% of them bought the software without trying the free trial.
