Team vs Going Solo ? Where to find good team ?

Hello

I'm a new agent that has been having trouble getting his business started. Now part of that is due to me prospecting incorrectly and waiting for business to come to me. Another part is that I'm a part time agent that works 15-20 hours a week.  Over the past 2-3 weeks I learned that I need to actually be active in my prospecting methods ( door knock , cold call , etc). It was also brought to my attention that I need to look into joining a team.I don't want to join a team where the leader is just using me to grow his business but not mine. From what I'm told must teams have leaders that are only in it to use you.

My question is where can I find a good team to join in the Columbus Ohio area ?. Most teams I find through indeed , etc are either supportive teams (AKA a solo brokerage ) or actual revenue sharing teams that want experienced agents. 

Example 

 * 2 years experience 

 * X amount of sales 

Does anyone know where I can find a good team to work with where the leader wants to help a new agent out ?

Or should I just hustle hard and go through the pains using the correct methods to grow an business solo ? 

Thanks
