I am thinking of opening a Home Improvement magazine that would NOT be a direct mail piece. I am certain that in this market where there are so many foreclosures out there that the Home Improvemnet sector might be looking for a positive choice to get their "faces" in front of the consumer.
Have you ever thought about doing a project and didnt know who to call? Yellow pages? to many to choose from and half the time they are not in business anymore. This product would be put at very distintive locations throughout the market, we have done a lot of research and have concluded that the primary decision maker in a home related item is female, between the ages 0f 35-65......so why not target the audience by putting the publications where the product and businesses in it will florish. Wouldn't it be nice to say okay honey I will grab a book next time I am at the spa or nail salon, or better yet the husband or significant other says they will go get it now.
Let me know your thoughts as Realtors and vendors...........
I provide a magazine that has been here for about 35 years, and in over 500 markets. We get that, that there has to be a source to get all these homes viewed. We do this in both print and online, we feed the listings in book automatically to over 35 sites and place the book so consumers can readily get the information that they are looking for.
Thanks for the post and I totally agree.
www.therealestatebook.com will get your listings viewed by more people than any other form of media out there. Thank you Daniel!
La Times Axes Real Estate Section, Banks Flood Market with REOs, Death of A Listing Presentation....
These are just some of the headlines that caught my eye this past week. So lets start with the LA Times ultimatley giving the pink slip to the real estate section of their newspaper. This is not a big surprise to me, and shouldn't be to anybody who has shopped for real estate in the last 12 months. Ok, here's a question. Who in the heck doesn't start their search for their next home on the internet? Actually, here's a better question. Does your realtor's marketing budget include a big percentage on newspaper advertising. If it does, you might want to flush your existing leftover marketing dollars down the toilet and send me next weeks paycheck too.
Now how about REO's. So the banks started this mess. Everybody gets that. But when are banks going to understand what it takes to clear this up. Unload inventory and make it easy for buyer's to shop and purchase their property. In our Denver Real Estate market, every 1 in 4th home listed is a foreclosure. So this market is not just for speculators anymore, real homebuyers need to purchase these homes, because 25% of the time it is their only choice. But no real homebuyer wants to wait 3 weeks for an answer and deal with bank mumbo jumbo in order to purchase. Heck, one of my real estate colleagues said that the banks would paint the neighboring houses of the mentioned foreclosure just to get a house sold in the 80's. Where's the love now Banks?
Death of a listing presentation..... um not so much, just the inputs (data collection, marketing, imaging, MLS,etc) of how we sell their property has changed. Sellers still want to list their property with a reputable brand through agents who have a history of success. In addition, having founded and sold a discount realty shop and now running a traditonal brokerage, excessive discounting of listing fees still has not proven to more valuable than getting someone from point A to point B in complete and utter confidence.
Hello all and good morning to everyone on the West Coast,
As I awoke this morning I was faced with ad copy due for my book, talk about stress. I thought what am I going to do to get three pages in my book so that I could print it as well as throw the listings online, well I thought I would give someone a cover for free.....GOOD IDEA, Huh? Wrong....I have made about 25 calls so far this morning and people are very hesitant about taking a freebie, thinking there is a catch. Well, in this case no catch, just a chance to hopefully build a relationship with a Realtor that I may have not gotten a chance to meet.
I even went so far as to put 10 of these Realtors properties online with all my sites, keep in mind I didn't do just one per Realtor I did several, just so I could show them the power of this product. I shot screen shots to them so forth and so on, and still no response.......Now I need help!
As Realtors, what are you looking for as far as advertising in this market? Any suggestions would be great!
Thanks alot.

I wanted to share with you a list of Real Estate sites that are getting some very good consumer numbers. This is a list I make available to my agents, if you would like a copy of this each month let me know and I will send it.
It really is a great source of information especially where your marketing dollars are spent, and as you know we need to spend them wisely. I wanted to point out that The Real Estate Book currently feeds to over 35 sites and the top ones are highlighted. NCI, Our parent company is ALWAYS ranked in the the top 25 in the World, which means that the consumers are looking to The Real Estate Book for much of their online experience, couple that with unparrelled distribution of the magazine and you have a complete sytem. Not to mention trebstore.com for any flyers, postcards, business cards, brouchures.
Good Luck and happy selling!and by the way I do have Junes numbers as well.
I just wanted to share with you the exciting news we got from NCI our Corporate operator of magazines. We have launched some new websites for all our agents listings, we feed to over 35 sites.
