January is a really good month to call old contacts and say "Hello, happy new year.”

Every real estate investor in Michigan has a drawer full of business cards somewhere in their home. People they came across in seminars, foreclosure auctions, REIA meetings, chance encounters. All of us have that box full of business cards in our homes. Open that box today. Grab a stack of cards and call them, one by one, to wish them Happy New Year.
You never know which one of them is THE ONE that might just changed 2009 for you.
