I’m 17, what can I be doing?

[Pat Rach]

I have been doing a ton of research and talking to people in my city doing some networking. I have also analyzed probably 10-15 deals and feel I have a good grip on that. I have started to create a document for attracting local lenders for when I find a good deal. I have also been reading mindset books and creating spreadsheets to gain a deeper understanding. What else should I be trying to do? How can I make everyone try to take me seriously? Should I be pursuing certain marketing tactics such as door knocking, cold calling, and direct mail? 

Any recommendations are helpful!
