Experienced investor becoming an agent - Advice?

[Edward Holland]

Hello Everyone, 

I am in the process of obtaining my RE license in DC. I have associated with a broker and will be ready to roll in June. I was hoping other experienced (or new) agents may offer some advice for getting started. Primarily, getting my first client (or two, or three). While I do live in DC, I moved here just three weeks before the Covid shutdown. As you can imagine, this severely impacted the opportunities to network around here. My social circle is not large and I will need to focus heavily on marketing and making connections while I'm working with my assigned mentor. Any advice, words of wisdom, tricks of the trade are greatly appreciated!

Looking forward to hearing everyone's advice!
