In addition, it's not very expensive and provides much education on google ad-words.

Once the phone starts ringing you will find a deal with enough margin to wholesale.A quick mention is that an alternate strategy could be to build a website and start driving traffic to that through SEO and Google AdWords.

Those are Adwords related and are referred as "paid traffic".Adwords, or paid traffic, is another great way to get people to you sites.  

You would have to be able to negotiate a good discount and get the property under contract in order to wholesale and unless you can show proof of funds etc. agents will not work with you.That being said  here are some ways to find motivated sellers. you can purchase lists with different motivations like absentee owners, 60-90-120 days late on mortgage, pre-foreclosure, delinquent taxes, water cutoff, code violation, evictions, probate, divorce, etc. and mail or cold call.Other methods are driving for dollars, door knocking, wholesalers, craigslist, Realtors, FSBO sites, expired listings, put out bandit signs, billboards, newspapers, other offline publications.You can use pay per click/adwords, motivated seller website with SEO, facebook, Linkedin, Youtube, and other forms of online and social media marketing.

I also wanted to use some of our weekly budget that we did not use on the direct mail for either a Google AdWords campaign or a Facebook Ad campaign, but it looks like it may be a waste of money unless you know exactly what you are doing to set up those campaigns.

How about Google PPC and adwords.

SEO work that we do with google AdWords.

I'm also using Google Adwords to drive traffic.

Hi, I was thinking of using Google adwords to attract buyer clients.

There is a gal in Atlanta that lives completely off these - she teaches continuing education credit courses on leasing to agents & pairs up with the top agents in her market netting 10-30 deals a month.Some people buy leads, or pay for marketing (ppc/adwords, content marketing, SEO, - I would avoid this until you have 200-400 doors & even then I'd be very cautious (avoid anything with lengthy contracts).Online reviews trump marketing - create a proactive process to get consistent reviews online from your tenants & owners - the leads you get from review sites will take half the time to close and your close rate will be more like word of mouth.
