Time to find a new broker?

Through my current broker I just purchased my first SFH for a long-term rental. She and her partner showed me about 10 homes. In the end, I was the one who found the house I wanted on Zillow and ask them to show it to me.

I ended up buying that house that I found on my own. 

I'm ready to buy another and I'm literally getting no leads from either broker. I'm getting the MLS emails they have me set up on, but it seems like no work is being done for me. I don't hear from them that they're actively searching for my next investment. I actually found a great deal on Facebook and took them to it. They were surprised at how I found the deal.

I guess my question is, what should I expect them to to for me? Am I expecting too much from them to be actively searching for me and sending me deals? I feel like they're getting paid to just fill out the contracts.
