Goodbye Phone Book - I'll Miss You - Or Not

By
Real Estate Agent with Realty Associates 0529267

I have tried everything when it comes to advertising.  Real estate books, phone books, newspaper ads and so on and so on.  The last phone book ad I used was 2 years ago.  Don't get me wrong.  The ad looked fantastic--and my photo was not bad:)  But, I truly believe that I was the only one who really appreciated my ad.   Did I really think that when someone needed a Realtor they go get their local phone book out and look up "Real Estate Agents"?  I guess I was hoping for the best.  Even one client off of this ad would have paid for the ad.  Sometimes it takes me awhile to "see the light", but I think I've got it now.  I know that when I get a new phone book I throw it into the trash immediately and I do my research on google.  Are you still holding onto your phone book ad?  My question would be "Why?".   I am watching every advertising dollar and am holding these dollars accountable!  They better produce out Out They Go!  Bye-Bye Phone Book.

Pam I agree with you! If the phone book or what ever vehicle you are using as a marketing tool is not bringing in the clients then it is time to move on!  Coming to you from Texas ...
