Penny wise and pound foolish? How do you spend your marketing budget?

By
Real Estate Agent with Interactive-Mobile

If you had the choice between

1) Saving a little money now and making some later

and

2) Spending a little money now and making a lot later

 

Which would you pick? Its obvious right?  Well, if you aren’t using any kind of lead capture technology, you’re likely doing the former.

So what kind of lead generation technology am I talking about?  I’d like to introduce Interactive Mobile Flyers.  In short, a mobile flyer is a set of text and picture messages (or a mobile enhanced website for smart-phone users) that a prospective buyer can request using his or her phone. That's kind of a mouthful, but its pretty simple:

By sending a simple text message, a buyer can receive a virtual flyer about a property.  Try it!  Text “HOUSE” without the quotes to 222888.

“But I already have paper flyers.  Why would I use virtual ones?”

Do your paper flyers text you instantly with warm leads of potential buyers?  Ours do.  These warm leads... the most important element of your personal sales pipeline.. are presented in an easy to use, sortable dashboard, where you get the phone number, the property they texted about, and more.  You can generate an unlimited number of leads at no additional cost beyond the basic monthly package.

I’m still not getting rid of my paper flyers.

You don’t have to.. Our system works along side paper flyers.  In fact, it will even generate easy to print paper flyers for you.  With.. get ready for it.... QR Codes!  We’ll put a QR code on your flyers that can point to your website, your mobile website, or anywhere you like.  Take a tour!

That's neat, but what else can it do?

Well, among other things, our Interactive Flyer system can update your Facebook,  your Twitter...  and it can even send a second lead to your mortgage guy, your co-agent, your managing broker or anyone you want to share leads with.

Leads cost $30-$300 apiece from most sources... so it must be expensive, right?

Actually, our system runs between $9.95 a month for one property, to 99.95 for 25 properties.  We also offer brokerage and company-wide discounts.  We even throw in signs, shipping and your first month of service for free if you use our code “GOGREEN”.  And you can cancel at any time.

Lets face it... Real Estate is sales, plain and simple.  Sure, its law.. and math.. and customer service... and these days its social media too.  Ok, real estate is a little bit of everything... but if you want to increase your income as a real estate agent, you need to increase the amount of leads coming into your pipeline. 

For many people, friends, family, and former business acquaintances are a source of “leads”.. and if you are good at what you do, and spend lots of money on traditional advertising, then you’ll develop a bigger pipeline, repeat business and over time somehow people in your network will become your leads.  And that is one way to build... but as a great business man once told me: “Marketing is the only money you spend that comes back to you.”

And that’s where the value in Interactive Mobile Flyers is:  “Turning more listings into leads”. Selling more properties in the same amount of time.  One sale from one lead will pay for your service two hundred times over... We think its worth a try.

Looks like a good system. I'm using someone else right now, but your rates do look very good!

If I was to test your system with three codes, can I add my other listings to the dashboard?  Will they appear or be available via the mobile website created for the lead texing my code(s)?

You can manage as many listings as you like with the dashboard... You simply assign which code is associated to which property.  We can also modify your account, so if your business grows, we can give you extra codes.

We get this question a lot.  Signs and codes ARE reusable.  Once a property sells, you can simply move that sign and code to another property.
