help very discouraged! what else should i do! New Jersey Market

[Tre Beals]

hello BP family my name is tre I'm in the New Jersey market. Have been doing a lot of learning and studying on wholesale real-estate... though i knew it wouldnt be easy I've had very little progress in 3-4 weeks. I've been going hard at this, Just need some knowledge on the new jersey market that can help me! i went hard at door knocking i learned to pick one marketing tool starting off and go hard at it not much success. i signed up with REIPRO and have not had any success with the software.... also trying to find wholesalers to connect and build and work with!! can anyone help? what am i doing wrong. i use whitepages to find numbers some numbers got through but others were just bad numbers...whats the best software to use for leads. i  honestly don't know what else to do very discouraged but I'm passionate about this business just need help to get the ball rolling.. anything helps! thank you

@Tre Beals First off, welcome to BP!

Second off, 3-4 weeks is not even close to enough time to judge practically anything in this business. What I'd like to know is, what are your numbers? You say you went hard door knocking, how many doors did you knock in 3-4 weeks? How many cold calls did you make? Do you have a script? How many handwritten notes did you mail? How many bandit signs did you put up (if legal in your area)? 

I've never used REIPRO so I can't talk on that, but this stuff takes time. Especially since you are in a hot market. If you are committed you'll make it work. I also recommend getting licensed so you don't throw away as many leads. The leads that don't convert to wholesale deals, try and list.
