Long & Foster Associate Implements 2-Step Approach For Better Advertising Results
Background
Long and Foster alone has over 11,000 sales associates who are experts in home buying and selling. They help home buyers and sellers search through all of the real estate listings, from purchase to financing to connecting with utilities to remodeling and beyond.
The Problem
Long & Foster associate was tired of chasing down leads that didn’t really want what she had listed. She decided to rev up her marketing efforts with direct mail advertising and consulted Indispensable Marketing on how to use this tool more effectively to generate leads, educate prospective home buyers/sellers and sell more listings.
Solution
Lead Generation – Advertising Strategy
Key Result: Client now has a simple creative strategy for making any form of advertising more effective.
After an initial audit of reviewing and refining outgoing direct mail material, researching market conditions and prospective home buyers/sellers interest Indispensable Marketing recommended using a 2 step advertising approach that generates qualified, permission based leads.
The basic idea behind this 2 step approach was to create one or more valuable home buyers/sellers articles, reports, evaluations, checklists or tip sheet.
Then, give this that educational material a catchy title, something like, “How To Tell If Your Real Estate Agent Is Lying To You” or “What Every First-Time Home Buyer Must Know About Mortgage Changes” or “3 Things You Can Do to Sell Your Home for Top Dollar.”
With her value packed educational material, we then implemented direct mail advertising that focused on getting prospective home buyers/sellers to pick up, request or download that educational material. There was no effort to do anything else with the advertising, the goal was to let the educational material sell the Long and Foster associate.
Results
Long & Foster associate was allowed to demonstrate her expertise in a non-threatening, on the prospect’s own terms, way and by focusing on gathering the lead into the educational funnel, her sales conversion became more effective. – Long & Foster Assocaite
