New Agent Networking

[Austin Allan]

I recently passed my Colorado Brokers exam and am now considering making a career switch into real estate. I currently have a job and am not planning on quitting to pursue real estate full time, just yet. I want to focus on expanding my network and putting marketing pieces together so that when the time is right some of the bricks are already laid out for me. 

I have attended a few local meet ups here in Denver and plan on continuing to frequent those but am curious to any other recommendations that anyone has as methodology to build a network. I am going to be diving deep into the marketing side of the business as well, besides BP is there any other good sites that produce high quality content for real estate agents? I have been working at a small business for the last 4 years and am a proponent of having a well established plan that can be followed and executed it because I have seen its benefits. Is there any recommendations on format for creating such a plan that relates closely to real estate or does a 1-2 page business plan still work well in this industry.

Thanks for any help, insights and, recommendations!
