Consider Ringless Voicemail Marketing

Various marketing methods exist to cater to different property-selling businesses. But consider dropping ringless voicemail messages as part of your real-estate marketing campaign.

Ringless voicemail allows you to send voice messages directly to a phone’s voicemail server. But this service doesn’t interrupt the recipient. Standard voicemails will make the recipient’s phone ring first, thereby interrupting them from essential meetings or tasks.

Ringless voicemail services, on the other hand, won’t let the phone ring before you can drop a voice message. This marketing technique helps promote different benefits like:

• Cost-per-message payment schemes
• Potential of to bring high conversion rates from real-estate leads
• This non-intrusive marketing technique allows customers to reply at their preferred time
• Consumers won’t gain additional fees from receiving the messages
• Compliant to the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) and the Do Not Call (DNC) list

Direct-to-voicemail messages can also help reduce complaints from leads and customers who don’t want to receive telemarketing calls. Thus, your property-selling services may reach your target audiences at their best times.

Know Your Target Market

Many real estate agents like to target different audiences at the same time. The allure of gaining more profit can be too tempting. But that might end up as a disastrous situation.

Consider targeting a specific audience first before distributing your products and services to a broader market. Focus on a niche market and understand its ins-and-outs. Find out the risks involved, and make sure to study current and past trends of that sector.

That way, you’ll know how to catch the interests of potential homebuyers. You can also build trusting relationships among your clientele by understanding different developments and personalities. For example, you’re targeting people who are fresh out of college. You can target your marketing strategies accordingly based on their current employment status.

Here are four quick tips to help define your target market:

• Don’t aim to please everyone
• Target a specific age group
• Use market segmentation creatively
• Consider your personality

Also, don’t be afraid to revise your target market. If you think your current relationship with your target audience isn’t working out, consider changing your niche. The move might make you take a step back, but you might need it to gain further growth.

Use the Internet to Your Advantage

The Internet isn’t only for browsing social media feeds and laughing at funny pet videos. Use the fact that many people log into the Internet every day to fuel your real-estate selling interests. You have various options to choose from for your digital marketing campaign. Here are a few examples:

• Develop and Optimize a Website

Many large corporations target their audiences, and entice business leads by using their websites. But, owning an online presence doesn’t mean people will start flocking to seek your properties and real estate services.

Optimize your site to follow correct Search Engine Optimization (SEO) practices. Here are a few tips to help you get started with excellent on- and off-site SEO:

• Follow the right formats for meta titles and descriptions
• Optimize site speed
• Improve website user-interface
• Post links to your pages on other websites
• Start and build an on-site blog

• Create a Social Media Following

Many people spend a significant amount of time scrolling through their social media feeds. Take this opportunity to make sure your target audience sees knows your online presence.

Don’t forget to share relevant content from your on-site blog to your business social media page. Also, engage with your potential homebuyers by replying to their comments and queries. Various individuals don’t like following companies that leave their customers in the dark. Otherwise, your leads might find your competitors more interesting to engage with than you.

• Build an Online Network

Consider following other like-minded folks online. Like and Follow the pages of other property-selling professionals. Comment on their social media posts or reply to their topics on online forums.

Networking in businesses allows you to share ideas and cooperate when needed. For example, another real-estate agent has a lead that’s looking for a property in your area. So, that professional might refer that potential customer to you.

But don’t forget you’re also building relationships with other humans in the same field, so treat them with friendliness and respect, and you might find yourself talking to a potential business partner.

Another way to help build and maintain interest in selling properties is to write about relevant subject matters. You should type news and useful information about real estate for your site viewers to read. Then, you can post your articles on your on-site blog, or you can submit those documents to guest blogs. Choosing the latter may also help bring more visitors to your property-selling website.

 

Attend Conferences

Talking about shared interests with like-minded individuals can also take place offline. You can meet other real-estate business owners and agents in conferences and seminars.

Here, you can meet and greet your peers, along with staying at the top of trends and technologies. Aim to gather ideas from other professionals to help boost your interests and marketing efforts. You might even find a potential client or two while strolling down the event hall.

You might also get the chance to explore a new venue. Specific real estate conferences might not always happen locally. Individual seminars might require you to travel far before you can reach these events. Take this time to spend a few more days in the new city by exploring the sights and sounds.

While you’re here, consider reminiscing about the first time you decided to sell properties for a living. It’s an excellent chance to catch yourself from getting anxious. Traveling to other regions can help clear the mind of worries as the activity can promote feelings of zen from within. Take this chance to renew lost interests. This way, you’re going to be primed and ready to take on new challenges once you return to your real estate job.

 

Practice Photography

It might sound like an unlikely tip to practice photography to increase your interest in selling properties. But take note that many homebuyers like to view high-resolution images of the properties they plan on purchasing. Taking photos with your low-quality smartphone camera and posting it on social media might not be the best course of action to gain consumer interest.

Instead, consider taking up a photography course. Also, invest in a high-quality camera to take different pictures of the properties you sell. The learning experience allows you to understand relevant subjects like:

• The Exposure Triangle
• Proper lighting
• Correct composition
• The various lenses to use
• Aperture and depth of field

If you don’t have the extra funds to pay for an in-depth course, you can start learning by watching online videos. Video-streaming websites with free content let viewers learn about different topics like real estate selling and proper photography techniques.

Consider spending a few hours per day to watch these videos. Otherwise, you can also save relevant blogs to your smartphone so you can catch up on reading appropriate content while you’re traveling.

 

Take Your Customers to a Live Preview of the Properties

You can go about this method using two techniques: live videos or 3D tours. For the former, you can use your smartphone’s camera and connect it with popular streaming services. Tell your followers to stay tuned for the live telecast of your stream. Then, show your leads and potential clients the homes they might plan on buying.

You can also develop a 3D model of the properties you’re selling. However, this method might need technical expertise as you need to create the 3D model from scratch and by using reliable software. Otherwise, you can hire a professional to create the model for you. But that might not be a suitable choice for startups since the business might not have enough financial resources to invest in the services of a 3D developer.

These methods allow your customers to view the properties you sell without leaving the comforts of their homes. Your viewers can also look at particular upgrades in old properties like remodeled kitchens. So, when you meet your clients personally, you can direct their attention to more meaningful conversations like contract signings.
