You should also play an active role in local community organizations. This will enable you to meet many local people who could refer leads to you, or even become clients themselves.

Business cards are a very important tool that can give you valuable investor leads provided you use it dexterously. Make it a point to pass on three to four business cards to new people you come across at social gatherings or business meetings.

Business card should have your name, address, and contact information on one side and details of your business with any awards or accolades that you have won recently on the other side. It would do a world of good if you have an accreditation or affiliation with other reputable organizations. Make sure to make mention of this the business card.

Keep track of the obituary ads and classified ads in the newspapers. Though this is an old-fashioned way to find leads, it is still extremely effective.

You can put up bandit signs of your business with your contact details and address. Place them at important thoroughfares in your city. Make sure the signs are colorful, unique, and attractive so that people take notice. The local courthouse is a storehouse of good information. There are free public records you can access that can bring you valuable investor leads. People whose properties are facing foreclosure, people involved in divorce, etc. are all documented in these public records.
