Having a company makes you look more professional, as does having a website, and making sure your Linkedin profiles are up to date and show you're an investor.  

I was wondering if it's considered bad practice to connect in a similar way as on LinkedIn, for instance.I also attempted to respond to a few posts and noticed that every time I submitted a post, it would jump to the very bottom of the page.

As per the last three years my best source has been social media, specifically LinkedIn

Call, mail, call again.....connect on linkedin, FB, IG....call again.You have the best list.....they trusted you once, now you just have to build up the relationship again.

Postell, I just sent a message to you on LinkedIn about this since you had mentioned that we could tag you if we had questions or need advice. 

If you have a corporation or llc over 2yrs old, high levels of unsecured lines of credit can be obtained with a strong Dun and Bradstreet Paydex Score, Credit Profile and a "low 5" business bank rating.Here is what you do:1) Establish a strong internet presence for your company by listing it on at least 15 sites-- Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, Scoop It, Bing, Manta, 411, Google+, Google Places, etc.2) In addition to your business checking account, open an expense and savings account in the same bank.

Lastly, you could use social media platforms like Facebook, LinkedIN and of course BiggerPockets to your advantage.

Do you mean social media channels such as Linkedin, FB or Insta?

My own view: the answer is in the linkedin/zip recruiter/monster.com Find city/metro that has largest number of engineer job opening per square miles.So you'll find:San Jose,CA ; Burlingame,Ca ; San Francisco,CA ; San Diego,CA ; Austin,TX ; Raleigh,NC ; Boston,MA, Seattle,WA and maybe even Huntsville,AL.Go follow the trail of money........and split the bet accordingly to those cities.
