Real estate agent contacting lenders for new prospects

[Daniel Johnson]

on a YouTube video I saw a commercial real estate agent who said that he regularly contacts lenders by either email or letters and the purpose is to try to get prospects such as new investors or possibly even sellers he even said he meets with lenders what I want to know is how is this done how do I approach a lender through email or letter and what should I say I'm just not sure if I approach a lender directly and telling them I'm looking for prospects that may not sound right is there a better way to introduce myself
