Download or read book Real Estate Marketing Playbook written by Brandon Doyle and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-09-12 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Countless marketing books have been written for real estate agents, and for a good reason: to survive in today's challenging economic climate, real estate agents must wear so many hats at once to have a chance at success, and thus need as much help as they can get. While many real-estate marketing books offer a whole-life plan to achieving your goals or attempt to impress you with far-out tactics that may have worked for one person, one time, in a market unlike any other, this book is different. The Real Estate Marketing Playbook was inspired by observations and experiences over many years in the real estate business. Concise chapters get right to the point and offer actionable advice. You'll receive a brief overview of each tactic, learn about best practices, and in most chapters, you'll hear from experts as they chime in on their struggles and successes. This is not to say that the book is merely short; it is merely respectful of your time. Each chapter is its own contained unit. Feel free to flip to any section that intrigues you, or that addresses a situation applicable to you. Keep in mind that it is not humanly possible to implement every idea in this book. Neither is it possible that every concept applies to every real estate agent. Just like your real estate business, every situation is unique. Use common sense to determine if a plan is right for you, your market, and your business. This book is meant to be kept within reach throughout your business day - in the car, in your bag or briefcase, etc. It's a perfect companion when waiting for open houses to begin or for clients to arrive. It's a helpful lunchtime read to keep you in the mindset of innovation and forward movement for your business. Anytime you need a helpful hint or a compelling idea to help boost your current or next marketing project, crack it open; even just flipping it open and reading a chapter at random could spark an idea that skyrockets your real estate business. This book is not for those seeking a shortcut, but for those who are willing to challenge themselves to take advantage of every opportunity to grow their real estate business.

Download or read book Dominate the Real Estate Market written by Rob W. Davidson and published by Rob W. Davidson. This book was released on 2021-01-15 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As you set out to become the go-to real estate agent, and dominate the market, you will need a solid plan to achieve this goal. The world of real estate agents is saturated with many different types of people; from the young go-getters to the middle-aged retirees looking for something fun to do in their spare time. In most neighborhoods or communities, there will be only a few go-to agents who are well-known, trusted household names. Becoming well-known involves full time work and takes time. In order to dominate a real estate market, the goal is to be visible everywhere, and be willing to do what others won’t. This could mean taking an extra hour per day to engage on social media or it could mean spending extra hours shooting and editing videos promoting yourself in the community. It could also mean organizing virtual events or partnering with other businesses. To dominate in your real estate marketing efforts, you need to know what you bring to the table. What skills do you have, what are your strengths, what do you excel at? Furthermore, what niche are you going to cater to? You need to hone in on a particular target market and become an expert at the things your niche is interested in. Find out what your potential customers are looking for in a home. Baby boomers and millennials have different priorities when it comes to home buying. Some are looking for more space while young millennials might not want to spend time to clean a bigger house and prefer something with less maintenance closer to the city center. After you identify your niche, you are going to want to get their attention in all the platforms they pay attention to and engage with. For example, podcasts are becoming more popular and people are spending less time reading newspapers and watching tv. Being the go-to real estate agent on podcasts that your audience listens to will begin to create awareness for you. Slowly, as you build an audience, you will build trust with clients. When people realize that you know a lot about the area and that you have a track record for getting your clients what they want, they will trust you to find their next dream home. These happy customers will tell their friends and your greatest marketing asset will begin working for you – word of mouth. When you become a part of social media conversations, when you begin giving back, when you begin delivering a positive experience, you will become part of your community. You will be instrumental in shaping and building your community by helping people and what they want. You will help both buyers and sellers and their next place and build their next home and community. It all begins with a positive attitude, steady work, and executing on your marketing plans. This guide covers everything you will need to build a real estate marketing plan and begin implementing it. You will learn how to create a marketing budget, how to create a multi-channel marketing campaign, how to effectively promote your listings, your personal brand, and more. Continue reading for in-depth tips and strategies for dominating your real estate market.

Download or read book Sell 100 Homes a Year written by Krista Lynn Mashore and published by Community Market Leader. This book was released on 2017-12-27 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Whether you've been in real estate for 18 days or 18 years, if you haven't achieved the success you really want, you need to read this book. You entered real estate for the upside: interesting work, flexible hours, and the potential to make good money, right? But the median gross income for the 1.2 million REALTORS(R) in the United States is just over $42,000 per year! That's about $21 per hour (if you only work 40 hours per week) with no paid vacation, no paid sick leave, and rarely any company health insurance plan. Is this what you signed up for? You're a goal-setter and a go-getter. You work hard and you're smart. You've learned the business and put long hours into it. Yet, it still seems like a struggle. Always chasing your next client, listing, or commission check. Spending weekends and evenings on work, not with family. Getting tossed around by a market you can't control. You've done everything you've been taught, but it's still not enough. What's the secret? Doing things differently than you've ever been taught. Krista Mashore says, "I've been in the Top 1% of all Realtors nationally for 15 years, not because I'm smarter or work harder than everyone else. It's because I research and implement specific techniques that catapult me to where I am." In this book, Krista Mashore will give you step by step instructions and show you how to: - Close over 90% of your listing presentations before you even walk in the door. - Generate legitimate leads while you sleep. - Use the secrets of Fortune 500 companies to build an active and loyal client base. - Use socialized marketing to gain your community's respect and become the go-to Community Market Leader(R) in your area. - Make over 100 deals per year (or whatever your goal is) using the power of social media and technology. - Create a business model that fits your desired lifestyle and gives you true time flexibility. - Build a sustainable business with a consistent, reliable income stream- no matter what the market is doing! "If you implement even 50% of what I recommend in this book, I know your business will at least double within the first eighteen months." - Krista Mashore Based in Northern California, Realtor(R) Krista Mashore sold 69 homes in her first year and has personally sold over 100 homes every year since. On track to sell 200 homes this year, Krista now also coaches and trains brokers and agents throughout the U.S. on cutting edge real estate techniques and technologies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I have been in the real estate business for 23 years AND have been marketing products online, including real estate, since 1992 - BEFORE there was even an "internet" as we know it today. For the first time ever... Here's the "back story" behind 312 real estate agents who learned the Free Internet strategies that immediately boosted their incomes by over 100%....even in THIS market Now - and I'm going to be brutally honest with you - there are literally thousands of so called "internet marketing" companies out there whose sole goal is to TAKE YOUR MONEY. All of them offer websites and different methods and they all promise to generate customers and leads for you. I know you've been called, emailed, harassed, and begged to buy this junk. I have too and I am sick of it. Here's what you will discover: * How to set up your own free Blog * How to use a simple tool to get to the first page of Google * How to get EVERY listing you have on Google's first page * How to "capture leads" online - FREE * How to add video and virtual tours to your Blog * How to get traffic to your pages from your local MLS - without violating IDX rules * How to get FREE traffic from realtor.com * How to Dominate and Own Google's first page for ANY listing * How to use "Social Media" * How to get FREE traffic from Facebook * How to turn traffic into real leads, and then turn them into customers * How to TARGET Twitter users and only "follow" homebuyers and sellers * How to set up Multiple FREE Traffic funnels that send traffic to YOUR pages * How to create an "irresistable offer" so people want your advice * and lots more.... And that's not all - you see - this is a COMPLETE system.... * How to EXACTLY measure the effectiveness of an ad, a sign, or even a webpage to see if it is getting results * How to set up an AUTOMATIC follow-up system * How to turn a first name and e-mail address into a real live buying customer * How to broadcast your video to 12 video distribution sites with one click! * How to "control" social bookmarking sites * How to create multiple "links" to your site with just one click You will learn free marketing strategies, how to set up free traffic funnels, and how to capture your own leads for free. Agents began leaving the business in 2008 due to the so-called "market downturn". Why? They had NOT CHANGED their marketing as the consumers changed their behavior. The few agents who had at least some internet presence continued to get leads and business. Those that had always relied upon print advertising saw that their business was going down so what did they do? Spent MORE money on ads. It took me about 9 months of researching, writing, and experimenting and I developed two 3 hour training classes on "How to Use Free Internet Tools to Generate Traffic and Leads". I even sent the two classes to our State Real Estate Commission and they were APPROVED as CE classes (imagine a course on how to make more money being approved!). I started offering them as CE classes - and guess what happened? The Agents That took the classes and USED the techniques began to get ONLINE leads and Business. The local Board Scheduled a full day for me to teach these 2 classes on March 4th, 2009. The Course Sold out a FULL WEEK before it was scheduled to take place That had NEVER happened before I called a professional film production crew and scheduled for them to be there. It was a tense and exciting day - and the agents that attended absolutely gobbled up the information. And That's how the "Real Estate Rocket Fuel" Training Course was born
