What do I do for Lead Generation?

Hello!

It's no secret that real estate is tough and it's hard to know a profitable investment when I see one. The flyers, open houses, postcards, email blasts, and multiple websites do not seem to be working, and I'm starting to wonder if working 24/7 will make the cut. It's no picnic, to say the least.

Has anyone else been struggling with this?

Best,

Nicole Newman

How long have you been marketing? I've heard many times that you don't actually see the effects of marketing until after roughly 6 months. Many investors assume their method isn't working so they change it and then they mess up their strategy and it's hard to tell what's working versus not working. Also you have to "hit" prospective leads several times - literally like 5+ times in some cases.
