Hi, JRJ!
There are plenty of helpful Forums about building your buyers' list.
Check the "Real Estate Forums" for such. [See: "80 Ways to Build Your Buyers' List"]
Also, "Everything Else" forum from REInvestor42.
Bandit signs, ghost ads, recent cash buyers' list from REAs, REI club meetings or meet-ups, speaking with people you know who have self-directed IRAs/401Ks, calling FRBOs and "We Buy Houses" ads, talking w/landlords, handing every1 you meet your biz card...the methods for building your list are endless! It's an on-going process. Keep the bucket filled.
Happy Prospering! ~Kat, Liberty Residential Investment Acquisitions

Just a NOTE:
"...Win Friends and Influence People in the Digital Age" is the most current version.
It's better than the original copy. It emphasizes how the Internet affects us greatly in our communication with people today.

This is an amazing list! I love it!
My favorite listed there is "Think and Grow Rich". I'm a big Napoleon Hill fan! However, all that are listed here are fantastic books and have incredible advice to offer and contribute to your success. 2013 is around the corner - it's time to reflect on this past year and learn from it, focus and plan for the new year and GET TO WORK!
KEEP MOVING FORWARD
