Feeling like I had a failure day looking for my team, any advice?

[Tanner Foy]

Me and my partner felt as if we did not have a successful day looking for our team. Spent about a total of 8-9 hours making calls today. Between lenders, brokerages, contractors, property managers we just did not feel as if any body was very interested in what we are trying to do. We did have only one win today in a lender who would does an 80% LTV Loan. Maybe our approach is wrong ??

Basically we told everyone we are new investors (don’t know if that is what threw them off), let them know our long term goals, and how we could provide value. You scratch our back we scratch yours. Most people wouldn’t even pick up the phone, the few who did seemed to busy to deal with new investors or just did not want to, and did not get any call backs from any messages.

Is this generally the process of finding good people, or are we doing something wrong...? Advice ??
