Constant Contact Goes Social (and some tips from me to you)

By
Education & Training with the Positive MOM

 

constant contact email archive share buttonConstant Contact's new features make it easier to build your list on Social Networks.

When you prepare your newsletter (which could be information on that new listing you picked up), Constant Contact allows you to archive it so it is available to you in the form of a URL (address on the World Wide Web people can go directly to view it).

What this means in terms of Real Estate is that, you can create a custom URL to advertise that listing, while adding contacts to your database.

If you are farming a particular community, you could also register a domain such as "bestdealincommunityname.com" and "gorgeousvillaincitystate.com to which you can point that URL to (through domain forwarding).  These you can use anytime you have a listing there and you can easily change the URL to which they are pointed to.

Through Constant Contact e-mail archiving, you extend the life of your communications and, by adding a Join My Mailing List box, you can grow your list, as well.

They have now also added a share button so you can make it easy for your customers to share your archived e-mails. The share button links to more than 20 social networking sites!  That’s what I’m talking about!

An auto-responder to welcome your new sign-ups would be ideal and don’t forget to include “follow me” and “friend me” statements and on your newsletter content so people can connect with you on Twitter, Facebook, and other social networks.  If you are blogging for consumers, make sure your Active | Rain link is on there as well!

Now THIS is truly Constant Contact!

I agree that how we position ourselves and our product/services makes a real difference to the success of the business.  Being good at what you do is not enough.  It's important to help people see how your service truly benefits them.  You have to believe that it does and will benefit them as well.
