There have been MANY new posts in the past few days that have to do with live transfers. People pimping that service must be starting new accounts and then answering those threads at one point or another to make it less obvious.

Sounds like you joined a "professional" recruiting-style agency filled with “magical” answers. Did they sell you all that stuff (at a discount)?
Yet, seems like you desire all of the right things so have you also prepared yourself solutions to your other needs? Like do your providers have competitive products that you believe in?
The most successful agent I ever met passed out his business cards to everybody, everywhere all the time when he was just a rookie. He absolutely believed that he could provide some good for anybody! Starting out, though, he did not really have a budget for all that nice stuff you have.
Perhaps he followed the Civil War example of Ulysses S. Grant who could not measure up either to the tactical ability of the noted Southern general and gentleman, Robert E. Lee. Nevertheless, Grant won for the North because of this motto: “Be there the fusest with the mostest.” Grant actually ground down the resources of Lee, yet it was not without high cost to his armies. It took awhile to win.
Making contact with as many people as possible seems to be the pivotal key to success here. This will also take some time. Have you prepared yourself for the long haul?
That rookie I knew had prepared himself for an extended program and after three years became the agency's top producer--all without using any other “magical” prospecting tools. To his credit, he also was young, single, personable and more importantly, possessed the stamina to follow through with his relatively simple and inexpensive game plan.
Can you?
To be successful is not just about knowing what to do. It also requires being in the right time and at the right place. Fortunately, that rookie was in his “comfort zone” and partnered with his own intense desire and drive lasted long enough to reap success.
How about you?
Good hunting.

A GOOD business card is a 3.5 inch billboard about your business.

I just made new business cards I did use both sides. I think I put to much info on my main side and the print is to small. I am used to seeing a basic card with large print. They will really have to read this card plus I put my picture on it, I have heard people will do business with you when they can see who they are doing business with. Any advice?
A picture on the biz card is a good idea. Too much info, small print is not.
Think of it as a billboard.
Billboards have few words, big print. You have to convey your message in seconds as people whiz by.
Same for biz cards. People will glance at your card and make a decision in a matter of seconds as to whether to keep it or toss it.

My old sales mentor would glue a penny(20 years ago) to the back of his business cards with something catchy on it. People would never forget his card and the majority of people aren't going to throw away money so they always kept his card.
