188: Rookie Reply: Networking Tips That’ll Increase Your Net Worth
Real Estate Rookie06/04/22 • 18 min
Networking tips only matter as long as they work. Everyone knows the classic ones—bring a business card, wear a nametag, and look people in the eye. But, when you’re meeting with investors who have big portfolios, it can be easy to get flustered all of a sudden. Maybe you run into your dream mentor at your next real estate meetup—what do you do?
Both Ashley and Tony were able to buy their first rentals and grow their portfolios thanks to networking. At first, they didn’t know what to do or say, and didn’t have many deals to speak of. But, over time, their net worth grew with their networking skills, allowing them to connect with more investors, find more deals, and build lifelong friendships. They’re testaments that even if you don’t have any deals yet, networking could be what brings you your first!
Not used to networking? Here are some suggestions for your next meetup:
Sign up for a BiggerPockets meetup in your city and get your tickets to BPCon2022!
Don’t stick with your clique, remember that networking is there for you to meet new people
Rehearse the question you want to ask if a mentor, speaker, or inspiring investor is at the event
Take a break from networking to write down names, lessons learned, and takeaways from conversations
Don’t know anyone at the meetup? Join a group (they’ll almost always welcome you openly)
And more in the episode...
