Ideas for Raising Private Money?

[Alexis Monroe]

Hi Biggerpockets family!

I've been reading about how raising private money for your deals can be an absolute game changer. So far, in the past 3 months, I've been able to buy and sell 5 properties for a huge profit! The way that I find my deals, I do need to have the cash to purchase them. What are your ideas on finding private investors to raise private money? Once I find them, what is the best way to communicate with them about this matter?  

All ideas and comments are welcome!!
