Uncontested Investing Podcast - September 23, 2025
In this episode of Uncontested Investing, we continue our series on marketing and deal sourcing—this time focusing on how investors can use social media as a deal-finding and networking tool. From Facebook groups to LinkedIn connections, from Instagram reels to paid ads, we walk through the strategies that can help investors uncover off-market opportunities, build credibility, and attract both partners and capital. Social media isn’t just about posting pretty pictures—it’s about being authentic, consistent, and intentional with your content so that sellers, buyers, and other investors see you as a trusted resource.
If you’ve been hesitant to lean into social media or you’re not sure how to make it work for your investing goals, this episode will show you practical ways to turn likes and comments into leads and closings.
