Networking with agents

[Napoleon T.]

My names Napoleon Titschinger and i’m a 17 year old aspiring agent in the north east Ohio area.

I’ve had trouble attempting to network with successful agents in my area. With the pandemic in place how should I go about networking with local agents, what is the best way to find agents interested in talking to a young mind? I struggle to find personal ways to contact agents through websites. If anyone has any tips I would appreciate it! Thank you.

You don't really need to network with agents, you need to find a great broker/team that's willing to provide you with help. Like @Steven Foster Wilson suggested, find the top agents in your area and see what brokers/teams they're with. Talk to brokers or team leaders, interview them, get a feel for how they treat their team members. I interviewed 7 brokers and team leaders last month before I get my license next month. After that I could tell who really supports their team, a few stood out. Most say they have tons of support but you're really on your own, or used as a grunt worker. Its up to you how successful you are but interviewing a lot of brokers does help. Most will have the same lead gen, Farm your sphere of influence, cold calling, or content marketing. It all comes down to how much action you're willing to take
