Wholesaling and marketing

Christopher Burns

Hello BP

I have spent months combing over dozens of posts, books and blogs (written and video) on the subject of wholesaling and have began to put into practice the viable information i gleaned. 

I became interested in real estate investing after reading the rich dad book series and after attending a "guru" seminar i joined bp. I quickly learned marketing is key and begun to create an unique approach. I have tried craigslist in search of motivated sellers and only found other wholesalers. I was complemented on my ads but didn't gain any deals. I also did a short and simple bandit sign campaign with similar results. Recently i pound the pavement and use drop cards. My originality seems to be getting attention, just not that of potential sellers. 

Marketing has been a way of life for me for years and while being self employed I'm not seeing any fruit. I know this can work but I'm missing something. Any advice is welcome.
