  • 525: 20 Deals Per Month—What’s Actually Working
    Apr 20 2026

    Andrew Becker is consistently closing around 20 deals per month, and it’s not by doing more—it’s by doing less, better. In this episode, he walks through how his team shifted to a narrow lead strategy while expanding their exit strategies, allowing them to convert more deals without chasing every opportunity. He breaks down how they track performance across every stage of the pipeline, cut underperforming lead sources, and build simple, repeatable systems that drive consistent volume. You’ll also hear how probate became a key part of their operation, and how focusing on data—not guesswork—is what actually allowed them to scale.
