Super hot? Well, that's what a company I received an email from today said I could do - create a video that would be super hot. I have an open mind and am ready to learn new things so I went to their site. Hmm...It appears being super hot costs a pretty penny.
How About Super Hot and Free?
I'm always attending classes; a must if I'm going to stay current with the latest tips, tricks and techniques for marketing, blogging, designing, etc. One of the things covered in last night's class was about adding video to your posts. Many free and upgraded products were discussed. Adding video to your blog posts does, indeed, add interest but I wanted to take it a step further. I wanted to think about how Realtors® could use video for their business.
How Can Realtors® Use Video that Keeps on Selling?
We live in a different business world now. Gone are the days of sell, sell, sell. Today, it's important to cultivate relationships, share our knowledge freely and show our clients that we are there for them before, during and after the sale. So, I came up with a short list of video opportunities that can be used to set you apart.
Here's one way to give your buyers something that they will not only appreciate and keep, but will share with their family and friends.
Welcome to Your New Home
The length of the video is up to you. This 24-second video was created using the free version of Animoto. It took literally 10 minutes to create. Take a few photos, add your own sentiments and, of course, your own little piece of "Remember Me" real estate at the end.
Other Ideas to Add Value with Video
- Introduce Yourself - Create a short video about you and your background.
- Promote Your Communities - Create a video with shots of local attractions, events and scenery. Add why you love living there.
- Promote Your Listings - Put together photos and information.
- Testimonials - Show photos of people who have given you testimonials and add a sentence from the testimonials on each slide.
Promote Your Videos
- Contact List
- Website
- Blog Site
- Tons of other online outlets
This is just a taste of how you can quickly and easily use video to promote yourself all over the web. If you are already using video or if you have some creative ideas you'd like to share, we'd love to hear them.
