Newbie with access to funding... need advice please.

[Isaac Guzman]

Hey BP, I just started a new position (about two weeks ago) at a fast growing funding company here in San Diego. A buddy recommended me and within a week I had an offer. Great place to work and the people are awesome to work with. I spend most of my day on the phone with small to mid-sized business owners. Then after work I jump in my car for the hour long commute home while listening to the BP podcast. Get home and check out the news and maybe BP forums.

I know this is completely ridiculous, but as a total newbie who has yet to do a deal (plan to do my first deal in early 2015) it took me quite a while to realize that my new position as a funding executive could be of use to Real Estate Investors. To be completely transparent, it wasn’t until a flipper from Texas reached out to me for some capital that this became apparent to me. I guess I was just too focused on learning the products to think outside the box. Since, I have spoken with quite a few flippers and contractors and realized that I could actually provide a solution for some Real Estate Investors.

That being said, I by no means want to troll on the site and fish for business. I would like some tips on how I can make myself available for the select type of REI's that could find some use for my services without being one of "those guys" who just use the site to drum up some sales.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks guys.
