Maybe @Rob Drum or @Jason Carter might be able to chime in with some suggestions?  

Do your own marketing to owners of homes to try and drum up a deal for yourself. 

I don't know what, if any, your connection to "The Oracles" is or if you are simply trying to drum up business for your brokerage, but trying to pass off a promotional marketing article as investing advice isn't a good look.

Agree with @Eric Drum. 

@Eric Drum thanks for the reply  i have been to one meet up a couple of times ill keep a look out some other ones as well. and business cards are definitely a great idea im still in the process of branding as well beginning of everything for me.

Have you had success sending mailers to other investors (found through propstream/public records) to drum up interest in private money? 

Don't have to go crazy and rent a drum sander, especially if it is a rental. 

You should be going there anyway to meet, learn, share, and possibly drum up deals.

For one Auction.com utilizes ghost bids to drive the price up, which is there way of drumming up fake interest.

Thank you for the welcome @Rob Drum Jr.!
