a spin off fromproperty biz cards for sellers...
Here's something
your buyers
can
While
buyers are busy packing and making moving
arrangements....
You might boost
your congratulatory show of appreciation and get in on the fun of
helping to announce their new home and your services to their family
and friends - it's personalized, inexpensive, and practical
Expand
on “Just Moved” postcards
- with a bite-size edition to broadcast the home, the move or
the new address on a biz card:
Enhance
the staying power potential by fashioning a
dozen or so into biz card size refrigerator magnets for your buyers to
use in their new abode and to distribute among their sphere –
help keep your name and services in view on a handy useable magnet!
Pre-cut, self adhesive, card
size magnets - can be purchased at many office supply stores
with
your card design - it's as easy as peel and stick
Design
with a focus on the home,
new homeowner(s) or something identifiable with them. Some ideas are to:
Highlight
the “New Address”
Splash
some color with a photo of the
property, family, garden, or something associated with the new
homeowner
Include
your contact info via light branding
I’ve had great
feedback on biz card magnets using:
A wedding photo of
newlywed clients
Photo of a blown glass piece created
by an artistic client
Family photo for
first time homebuyers
New home photo
for move up buyers
This
is one you can have some fun with!
Card magnet examples below: ok! maybe Champaign would be a
better choice than “tootsies” for a refrigerator
magnet but you get the idea :)
If direct
mail
is part of your promotions–
a “Just Sold” biz card with your
newsletter or other direct marketing might be advantageous
- These miniatures can
convey much the same message as your "Just Sold" postcard but may
have a longer shelf life because of their
easy to
KEEP size - ideal for a card file, rolodex, or wallet.
These are great! Certainly customers must appreciate your clever approach an dthoughtfullness. I make up business cards of the sellers home with bullets points and my contact info and give the seller 50 in a nice case and ask them to give them to EVERYBODY. I carry assorted homes cards with me and pass then everywhere also, like in the bank, at meetings, restauraunts, hair salons, It is such a WIN-WIN. Thanks for your great ideas.
Hi Doreen it sounds like you're on top of it with home cards. Always amazed at how much info can fit in such a small space and how receptive people are to holding onto them. Being a saver of other peoples cards, I can appreciate the value and handiness. Thanks for sharing your ideas!
Hi Jacqueline - the answer is - I've used the ideas over time so the challenge is more in how to effectively communicate them and thank you for the compliments! Have a terrific holiday week-end and I'll be thinking of you on that beautiful property by the water!
Thank you Michael! and have a great 4th of July :)
Ara that's a great idea with the labels also! great add that buyers can Love!
Teresa: Like the idea, I also found the bit about carrying a few "sellers" card on hand helpful as well. I enjoy reading your ideas and advice. Keep up the great sharing.
