I'm putting together a financing presentation in a binder to hand out to local banks.

They are designed to help bring people together, not necessarily for agents to farm, but it never hurts to have some cards ready to hand out should someone ask.

Stop, ask a few questions and hand out a card.I would be interested in any success stories through this type of marketing or view point. 

Additionally, flat out asking for a handout because you're a school teacher is also pretty off-putting (to me) and I doubt many serious investors are going to consider handing off a sweet deal to someone who isn't interested in working to be successful.

This way you aren't just asking for a free handout, instead you are creating a partnership that is mutually beneficial.  

Go to the events including trade shows.

go to your local rei meeting and make contacts with buyers, or hand out flyers on your wholesale deals, if its a real deal you will have plenty of buyers

Not looking for a handout, I am a hard worker with construction experience, a business owner, and have a private money lender who is very interested in working with me. 

Visit your local SBA (small business association) You should be able to find guidance there and they will have up to date information and all the introductory handbooks and handout you can find on all your topics above.

To make things clear I am not looking for handouts.
