Business name on phone calls

OK, so I'm new to the whole getting the buyers list going buy it is going which is the good news. I was just wondering if anyone had any thoughts on this:

I haven't created a business yet (name/company/anything) and I'm not quite sure what to say when people ask me who I'm with. Should I say I'm an individual real estate professional looking to work with like-minded individuals? Or should I just come up with a name?

The background is that I'm calling for rent ads in the paper and asking the owners of those ads if I can add them to my buyers list. Thank you in advance for any and all information. It's greatly appreciated.

Kim :lol:

What would your expected outcomes be of using your personal name or your business name?

Personally, your business name wouldn't impress me that much. Real Estate is a people business. You are in the business to help solve people's problems. I would rather deal with you than a business name. The business name is just a legal formality. Good luck Kim.
