real estate marketing postcards: Short Sale Marketing - Easier and More Effective Than You May Think
- 08/08/12 03:52 AM
For many Realtors, becoming the "short sale" go to Realtor(R) has kept their businesses alive and kicking for the last several years with the market being like this for a long while now. Many that missed the real estate "short sale" train have been left behind, many of which have left the business where short sales make up for more than 50% of the sales in their markets. There are still so many markets where short sales are still making up a huge percentage of the sales and are the norm.
The good news is....It's never to late to catch that … (1 comments)

- 12/02/11 09:40 AM
As a Realtor trying to flourish in this market, your likely continually mulling ideas over in your mind on how to increase business/revenue and in this economy, how to do it for as little as possible!

Prospects and past clients must like or follow you for those outlets to be effective. That's where some consistent print marketing can make a huge difference in your social marketing results.

real estate marketing postcards: To Include or Not Include the listing price...that is the question
- 11/30/11 11:16 AM
There is such a split on which way is best and I have been asked many times throughout the years about listing fliers. I think if I were to ask 100 Real Estate Agents which is the better approach, I would likely see a 50/50 split on which is best. I myself have an opinion on the matter, and agree with what Ben Kinney has to say.
I have stumbled upon a great blog/video post from Ben Kinney of Keller Williams in Washington. I enjoyed is post so much, I called him directly to learn more. Our quick conversation helped me … (0 comments)

real estate marketing postcards: Update on "Some Guy" who dropped off the postcard at my door
- 11/23/11 07:34 AM
I wanted to do a quick update on my Active Rain post "Some Guy Who''s Name I Can't Remember Postcard Marketing", It's been almost a month since I received his "first"...and I'm still predicting...his "only" postcard.
I kept the postcard (printed at Vista Print...their marketing was on his postcard???) and stumbled upon it recently. Still can't remember the guy's name, and I took a moment to read it again! I'm coming up empty.
I'm still waiting...waiting...waiting to see if he will attempt a second postcard drop. I'm predicting, he won't and has now wasted his investment of time and his "free … (5 comments)

real estate marketing postcards: The fastest way to increase your number of listings
- 11/22/11 08:31 AM
As a Realtor (R), I probably don't have to tell you that you need to "list to last" in the real estate profession. Listings lead to more listings because listings give you exposure. Marketing your listings gives you even more exposure. The big question becomes exactly HOW do you make sure you are always "listing" to make sure you last. I've talked to many people who have been in the business for more than 20 years and they all tell me the same thing. Farming...marketing...farming...and more marketing!
You need a plan, a real estate marketing plan that leads you down the … (2 comments)

real estate marketing postcards: I keep promising myself that I am going to get those just listed postcards out...
- 01/14/11 09:08 AM
And I just can't seem to get around to it every time I get a listing.
How many times I have heard this statement from both my friends that are Realtors and our clients! When my friends are Realtors tell me this, it kind of makes me crazy. After all, they only need request for us to handle it and WE WILL! I'm never really sure what the "real reason" is they aren't moving forward and just "doing it"! What is it that is really standing in their way?
I have come to the conclusion that it is simply overwhelming to most … (0 comments)

real estate marketing postcards: Without Branding, You’re Just another Real Estate Agent
- 12/08/10 11:46 AM
What exactly does it mean to work on “branding” as a real estate agent? It isn’t something you can touch or feel, but we know it is something we have to have to find real success as a Professional Real Estate Agent. Without it, you’re just another real estate agent that “I don’t know from Adam” or a name on a sign that I saw once when I drove by that I don’t remember because I saw it only once. Branding is defined as:A brand is a product, service, or concept that is publicly distinguished from other products, services, or concepts … (2 comments)

real estate marketing postcards: Why postcard marketing and email marketing are here to stay
- 11/09/10 08:31 AM
Social media sites like Active Rain certainly offer great opportunities to find new business through the Internet, there are too many success stories to negate that fact. BUT..."old fashioned" real estate marketing techniques like postcard marketing and email marketing techniques will still do the trick and are absolutely effective ways to market your real estate business.
Web Pro News - Michael McDonald noted, “Social’s great, but not everybody goes to Twitter everyday, and maybe I have Twitter and Facebook, but not LinkedIn…but all of these people have email, and they check that every day.” Every one of your potential clients or … (0 comments)

- 11/03/10 11:59 AM
Eighty-one percent of sellers are likely to use the same agent again....64 percent of sellers choose their agent based on a referral...IF THEY CAN FIND YOU. These are very interesting facts and based on a study done by the National Association of Realtors.

real estate marketing postcards: What about when your REO/Short Sale Real Estate Business Dries Up? Then What?
- 10/20/10 07:01 AM
What will REO Agents do once the banks stop giving them bank owned homes? i know...I know...I know! They will starve if they don't have a real estate marketing plan of some kind to keep their business going should the banks stop providing listings. Who is in control of your real estate career, You???? or The Bank????

real estate marketing postcards: When did your past clients last refer you? Do they know your still in THE business?
- 10/18/10 08:54 AM
When is the last time your past clients heard from you? Do they even know if you are still in this crazy and difficult real estate business? Chances are that if you aren't mailing to them or doing something to stay in touch, they will forget you! Maybe they think you "threw in the towel" like so many agents have/did as the market became more and more difficult.
Now if your agent is your mom, dad, brother, sister, aunt, cousin, son, daughter or any other person that you are in REGULAR contact with on a personal basis chances are they MIGHT … (2 comments)

real estate marketing postcards: Marketing Consistency - Does Coca Cola change their look...logo...branding?
- 09/01/10 08:25 AM
I just hung up the phone with a real estate group from Florida that "GETS IT" and I felt compelled to share. She is having us design Short Sale door hangers, short sale postcards, car door magnets and lawn signs that all have the same design on them. Wanna know why? BECAUSE IT'S CONSISTENT.
She explained to me that they are sticking with the same look and feel on everything they do right now for their short sale marketing. They want people to recognize their marketing materials as being consistent.
Yesterday we received a great phone call from "The Bald … (0 comments)
