Better Marketing Route for a beginner
I want to start marketing myself to help find properties for wholesaling and since I'm starting out I don't want to spend money on things that probably won't help.
Should I work more on the online side(BP, Website, SEO, adwords, content marketing) or more print/offline marketing(bandit signs, yellow cards, newsletter, etc)
Of course I would like to do both down the road but starting out what gives you more bang for your buck?

Web developer here, so I have more experience with the online side of things, but from my experience, many of those things that you listed (SEO, content marketing, and even adwords to some extent) take some time to get up and running with. They first require you to have a website (which you may or may not have, if you do feel free to send me a link and I'll take a look) and even then it takes a bit to build up SEO authority and start getting your content shared with a wide enough reach.
All of those online angles are definitely possible, but if you're wanting to start right now, I would go with some of the more direct offline angles.
I would of course suggest that you keep trying to build up your online presence while you pursue deals, but getting a few initial deals right off the bat will also give you more ideas and experience that you can turn into content and leverage for SEO purposes (building your credibility).
Just my 2 cents, feel free to reach out with any questions!
