    I've gotten some of my best contacts talking with bankers. Not tellers and clerks, mind you, but actual bankers. Bankers know the business scene in an area, and they can give you the names of the people who really make the decisions at the businesses that are hot.

    Take one out for lunch, and say, "Here's what I do for people. Who around here would have need of something like that? Who has an up-and-coming business around here that might need a web site, or some promo materials designed?"

    Plus, the people that the banker turns you on to, can in turn turn you on to a few more people--pretty soon you know everybody, and nobody thinks to do anything without calling you.
