Newly licensed in GA and looking for different or unique ways to generate new leads.  Things I am doing so far:

Hosing open houses for other agents in the office.

Sponsoring neighborhoods on Nextdoor (much cheaper than the big .coms).

Using my 'sphere' to work with family and friends.

Joining local cambers to source leads

Joining groups on Facebook 

What other cost effective ways would you advise sourcing leads for buyers and sellers?  Thank you in advance for any help or suggestions.

Jim, Thank you for the feedback.  I know that sales in general is an "eat what you kill" career, I'm very familiar with that. I Appreciate the advice.  

 Mitch,

Thank you for the reply.  Ultimately I will be getting in to investing but as of now it's more about being an agent and working with people on buying/selling real estate.  At this point I'm starting new and just looking for advice on how to start on the right path becoming an agent.  

Not putting the cart before the horse but I'll be taking the exam next month and I'm looking for tip or pointers on a few things:

1. Where is the best place to take a cram course?  Online or in person, which is better?

2. What would be the major things to look for in a broker?  Training? Support? Commission %?

Being a newbie I'm hoping to get some advice from the experienced realtors out there.  Things to do/not do when getting your feet wet.  Any advice is very much appreciated.  

Great job and congratulations on your success!  I'm in stage one of what you did.  Have cash, just looking for the property now.  I do some work with the movie studios around GA and I can tell you that Pinewood Studio is adding sound stages at a rapid pace.  I know first hand that Marvel has them booked for at least the next 5-6 years.  So it will only keep growing in that area. 

Thanks for the story and the inspiration.  Best of luck in your future endeavors!

Any news on the next meeting?  Date/Time/Location?

So this event is open to anyone?

I'm interested in getting into real estate but would like to start by getting my license.  What's the best course of action?  Do I pay for "exam prep" courses, just get the material, study and take a shot?

Any advice is very much appreciated.
