Old Fashioned Marketing

By
Real Estate Agent with Edina Realty

I love gadgets and technology. I enjoy spending time on my website, blogging and producing my own virtual tours. I enjoy going to listing presentations and telling prospective clients I have an internet marketing STRATEGY not just a website. Our regional MLS in the Twin Cities allows 10 pictures on the internet, Edina Realty allows up to 30 pictures, but my website, www.TwinCitySeller.com has the maximum amount of customization with unlimited pictures, a customizable brochure and virtual tour...and it's where I spend a lot of my marketing time.

I'm always looking for ways to get people to my website because it's one of the best ways I have to show off my clients home. 

Despite all of the technology, I still get calls off of yard signs. A lot of them. People are still intriqued by the big white post and the "for sale" banner that hangs from it.

So, I thought I'd try this yard sign that will go next to the big for sale sign:

Are you using some old fashioned marketing to drive traffic to your listings?

Lisa--I too use signs and flyers but also ads in the suburban papers. Their real estate section is less crowded and people love to read the small town news. This is much more effective than the big, expensive Sunday ads...for me atleast!
