Where can I find people who are looking for space?
I'm interested in finding people who are looking for CRE Space. I've tried using twitter but there is not that many. What tools do you guys use to find people who are searching?

In ten years you might be able to get away with internet based canvassing, but today decision makers are still, for the most part, a group of luddites. \"Whats a twitter? I don't care what Lady GaGa had for breakfast\" types.\n\nThe best tools for prospecting is probably CoStar, but my guess is you are not looking to pay for a costly subscription based service.\n\nAre you in a major market? What type of users are you looking for? Are you trying to represent tenants or do you have a building and are looking to attract tenants?\n\nI am a downtown office tenant rep in a major US market and I still prefer to go to buildings, sneak past security (which can prove difficult) and go floor by floor \"stacking\" the entire building. Dig up lease expiration information and proceed to call every last tenant in the building. You're going to get blocked by secretaries during normal hours so call before 8 and after 5.\n\nIf you know of a better way, let me know...dont think it exists.", "replies": [], "depth": 1}]
