What new investors should put on their business cards

[Andrew Hypnarowski]

Hello everyone,

 I am looking to get business cards to handout at networking events, but I am not sure what to put on them.

I am a new investor and I do not have a company or anything established. I was thinking of just putting my name, email, phone number and what I currently do for a living on the card.

Is there any other information I can add to the card? I feel like the card will be mostly blank since I do not have much information to put on it.

Thanks for the help!

You need to communicate what TYPE of real estate investor you are.

Development,land, residential,retail, office, warehouse, multifamily, etc.

Within each asset type there is a subset.

So for residential ( SFR ) there is a wholesaler just trying to assign contracts for a fee, a flipper who rehabs properties and sells to an end buyer to own, and a buy and hold investor who purchases for cash flow.

You might do one or all of these things. As a new investor you need to find one path that interests you and make that highly successful. Then move on if you want to adding a second asset class or strategy ONLY after you have mastered the first.

Don't do a little of this or that. When you do that you gain very little traction and are not a specialist in anything. You want when people think of a particular investment strategy to think of (insert name) and give you a call.
