I am going to buy some Facebook ads to drive traffic to that event (recommended here: https://www.biggerpockets.com/renewsblog/biggerpoc...) and people will be able to come, meet me, learn about how we can potentially work together, etc relax and have a little wine!

I have an apartment complex with 16 units, 32 parking spaces, and the street is 100 yards away so over-flow traffic has to park on the street and hoof it.
