Advice for aspiring biz dev at MM?

Long story but I’m very interested in pursuing biz dev at a podshop. I’ve never worked in finance but have solid knowledge of this world / the risk model, and I’ve exhausted all the big platforms. Anyone have any advice for me on what to do / where to go from here? Would greatly appreciate it 🙏🏽
