Almost Wordless Marketing # 2: Just a Dream in a Few Words!

By
Services for Real Estate Pros with Napa Consultants DRE00893924

Pictured above is the back cover of the same Vanity Fair that I refer to in our earlier post this morning.  This ad lauds the dream of owning that particular bag.  The bag is the star in the dream!

 

Again, very few words, 5 to be exact in the message!  This type of marketing ad is applicable to real estate.  For some owning a home is achieving their dream! 

 

“He hath heard that men/women of few words are the best men/women.”

William Shakespeare King Henry V, 1599

 

I added the words (women) to Shakespeare's quote, because I am sure that he would have done the same, had this play been written in recent times.

Keep it simple, keep it brief.  Happy Wednesday!

So, in that ad they are giving the impression that if one owns their bag, it would be like walking on the clouds?  Neat picture, but I surely would not purchase that bag, haha.

great ad (although I must admit, I HATE today's fashions that are being forced upon men). Kind of says it all without saying much!

Alexander/Ron, This is just what is needed... only a few words, but the message is there!

As you know, Alexandra... I'm all about handbags... especially colored ones! This one is definitely calling me name (with very few words!).

Now you have me thinking of how this very simple message could be motivating to those dreaming of buying ... and financing, of course, Ron and Alexandra Seigel ... my mind is going at about 110 mph!

The dream of home ownership is usually even stronger than the dream of owning a bag.

You've captured it again. This does say it all - and it's simply perfect in its simplicity.

Roy Kelley It is just an analogy and a way to market a home, and an example of KISS or keep it simple  A

Gene Mundt, IL/WI Mortgage Originator - FHA/VA/Conv/Jumbo/Portfolio/Refi So happy you got it!  We are all tired of 1000 word posts that say nothing but talk to the Google bots.  This ad is an example of using one's imagination and creativity!  A

Jeffrey DiMuria 321.223.6253 Waves Realty  I know what you mean, and when Ron needed a new suit (rarely wears one) we had quite a time finding one that was not trendy, with skinny short legs and tight top.  Now the bag may appeal to some men as it is a classic, but not all.  The idea of my posting was to illustrate the simplicity that I feel real estate ads should focus more on than wordiness.  A

Brian England Look at it as an analogy of substituting a home for the bag...My intent was to spark the imagination for simplicity rather than words galore!  A

Hi Alexandra... I was carrying my pink bag this spring until July... then switched over to my white bag. I have bags in many colors, but not one in orange... I might need to rectify that soon.

Hi Alexandra... I had two pink bags that I wore to death. And then didn't have any for a couple of years until I bought one this past spring... and was so happy that I did.
