Facebook Ad For Realtors: Case Study - 149 Leads For $82

By
Real Estate Agent

We are seeing a lot of success with lead generation on Facebook.  Not just the initial lead but with lead qualifying and follow up.

In this case study, we ran an ad for one week.  Generated 149 leads.  Total cost?  $82.

 

 

We created a how-to video that explains everything you need to know about this campaign and how you can do the same.  See the video & a detailed case study report on the campaign here: CLICK FOR VIDEO

 

With this campaign we used a "Facebook Integrated Landing Page" for the initial lead capture.  Example here:

 

 

This landing page is integrated with Facebook for easy lead capture (no forms to complete.  Just click and lead capture).  Click here for a live page example and see how it works.

 

 

 

After lead capture, we send an instant email to the new lead and send them directly to a quiz page for qualifying. This setup qualifies the lead and really improves the quality of the lead.

 

 

All of it is automated and easy to setup. 

 

To generate traffic we post the landing page on our Facebook page, in some Facebook groups, and setup a Facebook ad specifically for the page.

 

Here is a Facebook Ad example for a listing...

 

 

For more on using this campaign, including Facebook ad setup and targeting, simply watch the video here: Click For How To Video 

 

One of the key aspects of effective online real estate lead generation is your follow up.  Some agents?  They ignore this critical aspect and miss far too many opportunities.

 

Time?  That can be the reason you fail to follow up.  This is why the quiz page follow up is what you want to use after your initial lead capture.  This qualifies your lead for you.  It cleans your database of warm leads and delivers hot leads for you.

 

And best of all...they are "long form" leads with detailed information on your prospect. 

 

 

One last note...think about co-marketing and bring in your loan officer and work together on both your lead generation and your lead qualifying.  Your loan officer can be a great resource for Realtors.  They will take a long form lead like you see above and deliver a prequalified buyer to you.

 

All you have to do is contact your loan officer and explain what you're doing.  Show them the long form leads that you will deliver.  And then tell them to split the ad costs with you.  They will do it.  They will pay for 1/2 your ad costs and with that phone call,  you just doubled your marketing budget on Facebook!

 

There we go...

 

You should have enough to get rolling...

Chris, congrats! I've been a believer in FB, because it simply works. I use a third party for management of non real estate related FB ads.

Bill Dandridge - When does the listing go live?  Can you do "Coming Soon" marketing in your area?  If you can, run a coming soon campaign on Facebook.  Then flip to "Just Listed".  Easy to do.  Here is the "Coming Soon" lead capture page to use with countdown to the live listing: https://soon18.prophosting.com/ 


Signup over the weekend and we can have the entire thing created for you within 1 day after signup with the promo on the page here: https://2018.postAprop.com

Thank you Chris Locke . This is a good case study. Thanks for sharing. We do FB ads for clients and get good results with different ads. You are smart to stay inside of FB for ads,  people will choose the path of least resistance. Keeping them in FB and just a click and then a quiz works great in my book!

Hugh Thomas Lorch -  Best option is the annual plan with the promo code on the site.  Saves 38% and would include a complete lead funnel created for you at no extra cost.  Any questions? Please go to the site and use the contact form here: https://postaprop.com/#footer4-sl -

Aloha Chris Locke It's been over 8 months since this posted article. Did those 149 leads turn into any sales and how many? If you have had success, then will try your plan and see if I can get results for less than $200.
