Does SMS Marketing Work for Real Estate Industry??

By
Real Estate Broker/Owner with Hartsock Realty

I am considering using a SMS marketing technique in my 2009 marketing plan.  Has anyone had success with this medium?  Also, I am having a difficult time narrowing the choices of what SMS marketing systems work best and are the most cost effective long-term.  Please advise if anyone has good or bad experiences with any of the providers out there (cellahouse, goomzee, cellsigns, etc).  It is a bit overwhelming to try to weed thru all of the choices that are cropping up.  I am located in Ohio, so would appreciate knowing if someone has anything that has worked particularly well in this area.  Thanks for your help!

I don't think it's going to sell a house, but like all the other gadgets out there should be impressive to the seller when you are trying to get a listing.  At the very least, it's considered cutting edge marketing.

Be sure to price it out.  I've seen it run $20 a month per listing.  It should be cheaper than that IMO.
