Good Afternoon Investors,
I am a new wholesaler and learning how to do business. However, while getting things together and gearing closer to starting my endeavors, I encountered a roadblock concerning advertisement. I've attended local meet-ups and passed out business cards, but I had a question about signs, flyers, and door hangers. Are these physical forms of advertisement still effective or is there a better method of reaching the masses? Also, I read other forums on BP about bandit signs and saw a lot of division and not a lot of constructive feedback about their use. I ask about those signs because I've seen a lot of bandit signs, that aren't real estate related, around the areas I do business and just wonder if should I do the same. Thus, I'd like some advice on advertising effectively and without getting into trouble. Thank you for the advice and happy investing.
I'll give you recommendations but ultimately you'll have to test your market with different types of advertising to see what works best for you. Even 2 investors in the same market could find different results. Bandit signs produced ZERO for me in 2017 (and were a huge pain in the butt), but I had buddies who got deals from them.
