I contacted several fund broker, it looked fine during meeting, but when I do follow up, they disappear, do they think I am not the person to work with?
Do I have to make my case 'attractive'? What should I improve?

Well, why mess around with them?
There are two superb alternatives:
1) Invest directly with the mutual fund company. Vanguard and Fidelity, two of the most solid, stalwart, well-regarded fund companies, make it very easy for you to set up a new account and invest in their funds directly without the overhead of a broker. I might also include other good companies like T.Rowe Price and Dodge &Cox on that list as well.

2) Set up an investment account with an inexpensive online broker such as TDAmeritrade or Scottrade and buy ETFs, which are funds that trade on the open market.

How much money are you thinking about investing?? Unless it is enough $$$$$ to make it worth their while, that may well be why they are not interested.
