It takes skill to get marketing right as realtors/agents. When done correctly, it may be incredibly profitable and bring in repeat customers. However, if done incorrectly, it may result in a continuous stream of expired listings and a waste of time and money. Therefore, it’s critical to know the dos and don’t of marketing for realtors/agents, in order to develop a plan as a real estate marketer that enables you to maximise the most sales in the quickest amount of time.
The ‘appropriate’ marketing approach varies from real estate agent to real estate agent and from market segment to market segment. However, there are some things that everyone has in common.
Here are some important dos and don’t of marketing for realtors/agents which you must pay attention to in order to achieve or maintain the top of your profession.
#1. Do: Add Value
