Marketing in the new economy

By
Real Estate Agent with Stone Mountain Realty and Building Co.

I started putting my listings on their own business card and now when I pass out my card I tell them about the listing as well. This works well  when you run into someone who is looking for the type of home you may be marketing.  I also hang these up on local bulletin boards.  How many of you are using this idea? 

Another thing my husband and I are doing with our spec homes this summer is planting a garden for the new homeowner along with a rainbarrel to water.  We are building green and this does get points.

Reinventing ourselves and being more creative marketing ourselves as a real estate professional is something this economy has caused many of us to do. This is a very nice idea Cheri. Thanks for sharing. Great post.

Cheri--some agents are using their facebook,myspace and twitter to promote their listings.  Creativity.

I am doing that also Mary, along with Linked in Realtor.com and craigslist.  I also use vflyer for those of you that don't know about vflyer you should check it out.  It is a great tool.

Way to think outside the box!!!

Market yourself as if you are in a "streetfight"!!   When you "fight" fight to WIN!
