Building Relationships in Real Estate Wholesaling?

I'm a new investor in the Atlanta area. My company is Family Wealth Builders LLC. When it comes to wholesaling and building a relationship with Contractors, Realtors, and Attorneys. What kind of dialogue or approach do I use being new in the industry and low on funds? I know I'm suppose to create a win win situation for me and them, and also add value to them but how do I bring that up in the conversation?

@Terry Bernard Lanier my recommendation for what you are trying to achieving, especially in the beginning is reach out to more seasoned and experienced investors that have already been down the path you are heading down. You can always reach out while you are building your network/learning to help out the young guys. In regards to the contracts, what type of contracts are you needing because there is every imagineable contract posted here on BP in the form section that can save you time/money. Wouldn't worry about contractors as much because they are plentiful, just need to find a good deal and get at minimum 3 quotes with references and always pay on a draw schedule with no money upfront (from my experience). You don't really need a realtor with zillow, redfin, trulia, etc out there to compare and look at comps, but if you need a realtor know a couple I can pass you there number. Like yourself, most realtors in particular don't want to check comps, they want you to be a serious buyer/seller or provide some good leads for their business. Let me know if you have any other questions!
