Attracting a mentor: The conversation
I work in a business where I meet a lot of people, one of whom introduced herself as a property manager and she recommended I speak to a successful real estate investor in Manchester, NH where I am from. She gave me his name and contact info, and I haven't called mostly because I'm not sure what to say and ask. Any advice?

I would have a specific opportunity or narrow topic to discuss with a time limit. Find out what their interests and niches are, be in that world and prepare to offer value.
Do not ask to 'pick their brain'. For the love of ..... do not ask that!
