Welcome back to our 116th episode of the Launch Your Farm Show where I interview Patti Sampson who is a CRM and Drip Campaign specialist.

Today Patti shares how she started nearly 20 years ago and was an early adopter of internet leads in real estate. She was on a mission to create as much value as she could for her clients and build something that could run automatically. 

After becoming obsessed with automation and follow up, Patti cracked the code and did 42 sales in her first year of real estate, proving she had what it takes to build a long term successful business.

In this episode, Patti and I talk about:

• Why it’s critical for agents to track their business so they can get the most from their leads and their time.

• Patti shares how agents make major mistakes when not using a CRM and how the right systems and tools not only make your business easier, they make you more money!

• What Patti has learned about why segmenting your database is one of the most powerful things you can do in your business, and how you can set it up effectively.

• A SUPER easy way to stay top of mind and relevant to your leads to ensure that they are calling YOU when they are ready!

• How to make more money nurturing leads and following up by creating long term follow up systems that do the heavy lifting for you.

• Plus a ton of other ideas that you can use to grow your geographic farm!


Last Piece Of Advice:

“Your goal before you do any more lead generation is to get yourself set up with systems. You have to plan to spend time learning your CRM. It’s worth taking the time.“

Patti Sampson – CRM and Drip Campaign Specialist

HI, I’M PATTI SAMPSON – CRM & DRIP CAMPAIGN STRATEGIST

Hi Agent friend… it’s Patti here and I am a real estate Real Estate Agent too.

In 2004, when I got my license, I got stuck in the the up-and-down cycle of agent life… showing homes, taking listings, running to my desk to write contracts, taking care of kids as a single mom, and then… at the end of the day (when I was exhausted), I still had to call/prospect my leads so they would not forget about me so I could keep my pipeline constantly  full.  Sound familiar?

I was fortunate to have generated thousands of leads in a competitive market, but I also had to learn how to efficiently and consistently prospect those leads so I could stay top-of-mind and convert those leads to closings fast (’cause feeding my kids was kind of important, if you know what I mean).

It was then my REAL ESTATE DRIP MAIL was born and my engagement system quickly soared me to the top of the leader board! 

Today, as one of the top real estate marketing companies, I am seriously passionate about sharing my system (within any CRM).

If you are struggling, it’s time to make a change and I can help you! On this page are several options to help you get a grip on the unforgiving-real-estate-agent-cycle once and for all. 

Remember… leads alone won’t grow your bank account!  THE MONEY IS IN THE FOLLOW-UP!

About Our Guest

Beatty Carmichael - Launch Your Farm - Beyond Self-Promotion: Effective Marketing that Generates Real Leads

Beatty Carmichael from AgentDominator.com

In 2012 Beatty Carmichael focused his company’s efforts exclusively on the real estate industry, and the beginning of Agent Dominator was birthed.  Starting with geographic farming using postcard marketing, the objective was to help agents get more listings.  In that pursuit, he mailed over 2 million postcards, conducted 21 split marketing tests, plus tested an additional 37 message variations, to determine what message, fonts, headlines and layouts actually worked best to get the most listings. By applying the results from these tests, many of his Realtor clients have earned around $100K or more in their first 12 months with postcard marketing alone.

Since the early days of geographic farming, Agent Dominator has expanded into other areas, developing its own cutting edge technologies that further increase more listings for its clients.  Agent Dominator has also expanded from being focused solely on geographic farming to now helping agents increase sales and referrals from past clients and sphere of influence, to helping commercial brokers acquire new properties to sell … and able to offer a money back guarantee on the results it produces.

Beatty and his company have worked with some of the top Realtors in the country — individuals earning over $1 million a year GCI from personal production, to leaders of teams who do 100-300 transactions a year, and other teams that range from 800 to over 2,100 transactions a year.  In addition to being the chief marketing expert, Beatty also publishes a blog and podcast named GetSellersCallingYou.com that is committed to helping agents get more listings by teaching them simple, best practices in marketing to do it.

About Our Guest

Albie Vas - Launch Your Farm Podcast

Albie Vas from Keller Williams in Las Vegas

I have been a licensed real estate agent in Las Vegas for 15 years( 14 with KW) but have been involved in different aspects of real estate since 2004 when my wife became a licensed agent. I’m a BOLD Grad and Tech Ambassador for our office.

I’ve worked in the best conditions (when it felt as though everyone was handed a house), to the worse and toughest economic downfall that hit our market. These times enabled me to adjust my strategies in order to help my clients but also remain a successful agent, where I saw many of my colleagues leave the business.

All these obstacles I overcame have made me the successful agent I am today. Throughout my real estate career, I’ve also spoken on several panels regarding using the internet and other technology for real estate. My last speaking engagement was for the Oklahoma Association of Realtors, which encompassed the entire state.

In the past, I had the opportunity to assist in co-writing a book that’s on Amazon’s best sellers for Real Estate books. The book is called “Luxury Homes Selling Mastery” and I was honored to have been asked by the author for my input.

Create Buzz-Worthy Content for Your Farm http://launchyourfarm.com/buzz-worthy-conte/ Thu, 13 Apr 2023 09:00:00 +0000 https://launchyourfarm.com/?p=2741 Meta description:
Learn how to create buzz-worthy content for your farm to generate interest, engagement, and leads. Discover tips and strategies for choosing relevant topics, engaging formats, and effective promotion channels.

The post <strong>Create Buzz-Worthy Content for Your Farm</strong> appeared first on Launch Your Farm.

]]>
When it comes to modern geographic farming strategies, one of your main goals is to establish yourself as an expert in your farming area. There are multiple ways you can position yourself as an expert. One of our favourite ways is by creating buzz-worthy content! When you learn to master this strategy you can generate consistent interest and engagement among potential buyers and sellers, while also building your brand and reputation in your community. In this article, we’ll explore some tips and strategies you can use to create content that will get people talking about you and your real estate business while also generating leads to fill your pipeline.

Create Buzz-Worthy Content for Your Farm - Launch Your Farm

Why Buzz-Worthy Content Matters

In today’s digital age, it’s more important than ever to create content that stands out from the crowd. Gone are the days of writing boring, mundane and cookie cutter content. With so much noise and competition online, it can be difficult to capture people’s attention and get them to engage with your brand. The great news is this is still how most agents operate. (if they even create content at all!) 

Buzz-worthy content, on the other hand, is content that generates excitement, interest, and discussion among your target audience. By creating buzz-worthy content, you’ll be able to:

  • Increase brand awareness and visibility
  • Build a loyal following of fans and followers in your farm and beyond
  • Attract new leads and potential clients with ease
  • Establish yourself as an expert and ambassador in your farm
  • Drive traffic to your website and social media pages that convert

Understanding Your Audience

Before you start creating buzz-worthy content, it’s important to understand your target audience. Start with thinking about who lives in your farm? Who are they? What are their interests, pain points, and motivations? What kind of content do they like to consume, and where do they go to find it? What things affect their day to day life? What local information and content would be relevant to them?

By answering these questions, you can begin to tailor your content to meet the needs and preferences of the people living in your farm, which will then increase the chances of it being shared and talked about.

Choosing Topics and Themes

When it comes to creating buzz-worthy content, it’s important to choose topics and themes that are relevant, timely, and interesting to your farm. Some ideas to consider include:

  • Local real estate market trends and data
  • Neighborhood profiles and guides
  • Home staging and decorating tips
  • Things to do in the community
  • News and hot topics
  • Local businesses
  • Q&A sessions with local experts and influencers
  • Touching and impactful local stories

Creating Engaging Formats

Once you’ve decided on the types of topics you will want to create, it’s important to present your content in engaging and attention-grabbing formats. Some formats to consider include:

  • Infographics and data visualisations
  • Videos and virtual tours
  • Podcasts and webinars
  • Blog posts and articles
  • Social media posts and stories
  • Interactive quizzes and surveys
  • Print vs Digital

Which formats you decide to work with will be determined by the platforms you are sharing on, your audience, your skillset, your time and what gets the best response.

Promoting Your Content

Once you’ve created some buzz-worthy content, it’s important to promote it through the right channels to ensure it reaches your target audience. It’s one thing to create the content, but if no one finds out about it, it’s all for nothing. So don’t miss this crucial step. Some strategies to consider include:

  • Sharing on social media platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn
  • Using paid advertising to boost visibility and reach
  • Partnering with local businesses and influencers to share your content
  • Including your content in email newsletters and marketing campaigns
  • Repurposing your content for different platforms and formats

Measuring Success

Finally, it’s important to measure the success of your buzz-worthy content to determine what’s working and what’s not. Some metrics you are going to want to track include:

  • Website traffic and engagement
  • Social media likes, comments, and shares
  • Lead generation and conversion rates
  • Brand awareness and recognition

By tracking these metrics, you’ll be able to identify areas for improvement and refine your content strategy over time. This will help you create even better content that further gets spread and builds even more awareness.

Conclusion

Creating buzz-worthy content is an essential part of any successful real estate marketing strategy. The great news is that by focusing on  hyperlocal content, you will be able to reach people who resonate with it and increase the chances of your content being shared by members of your community. By understanding your audience, choosing the right topics and formats, and promoting your content through the right channels, you can generate interest and engagement among potential clients and establish yourself as an expert in your farm. 

And the great news is that most agents aren’t willing to put the time in to become the hyper local expert. This leaves room for you to become the big fish in the small pond, and carve out your own niche.

By now, we all know that video is an important part of the real estate industry. Especially live video! Whether you like it or not, it’s not going away, so if you want to stay relevant long term, it’s important that you embrace it in some form or another.

No one is saying you need to start your own online show or become the next celebrity agent on HGTV, but you should be making it a bigger part of your marketing plan in your farm if you haven’t already.

One of the best and easiest ways to incorporate video into your farm is through live video.

Live Video - Geographic Farming - Launch Your Farm

Why You Need Live Video

I know, I know… Thinking about doing live video may seem worse than getting a tooth pulled for some. The reality is that the only person you are hurting is yourself! You owe it to you and your farm to capitalize on the power of video.

Here are 3 ways you can use live video to crush the competition and take top spot.

Community Events

If you are active and engaged in your community, (which you should be!) then you are probably out and about at events and things happening in your farm. This is a perfect opportunity to be using live video. You can show your followers what you are up to, what exciting things are going on and invite people out.

The great news with this type of video is you don’t even need to be in front of the camera. For the camera shy folks, you can just do a voice over while you record. This way you can still let people know what’s going on and let the event do the work!

Interviews

Interviews are another great opportunity to use live video. You can interview local businesses, organisations, people in the community and even clients. This allows you to position yourself as the community expert, share valuable information and help bring attention to businesses, causes and people that your farm should know about.

This can take some upfront scheduling, but these types of live video could be repurposed into other awesome content. Plus it’s also more likely to be shared by the people being interviewed. This will drastically increase your reach in the community, and very quickly!

Q&A’s

If you want to be more informational, you could do a regular Q&A segment where you answer things about real estate, the community, the town or anything relevant to your farm. People can type in questions and you can answer them live and they can feel a more sense of connectedness as they are also part of the process.

This can also be repurposed into more content again which will give you even more opportunities to share your message. (See last months LYF Elite Theme) These types of Q&A’s can also help you come up with ideas for creating other content like blogs, other videos, newsletter content, reports and guides.

Conclusion

There are a ton of ways you can use live video in your farm, but the first step is to start. You may have to step out of your comfort zone and get started, but it’s worth every minute of it if you are committed to long term success!

Happy Farming!

About Our Guest

Chelsea Peitz - Launch Your Farm

Chelsea Peitz

I’m an internationally recognized real estate keynote speaker whose superpower is breaking down complex concepts into actionable, easy-to-execute social media strategies.

For over 7 years, I’ve taught the real estate community how to leverage social media and technology to build a powerful personal brand and develop content that generates real leads without feeling ‘salesy.’

I became a licensed real estate agent in 2001 B.F. (Before Facebook) and did business the “old fashioned” way for over a decade. While I’m no longer an active agent, I’ve continued to work within this niche and merge old-school strategies with new-school technology to teach others how to become more human by using tech.

I’m a frequent industry conference presenter and podcast guest whose signature style is to share actionable insights and tactical how-to’s rather than high-level fluff. Offering digestible step-by-step plans that empower agents develop a powerful personal brand that attracts their ideal audience.

For over two years, I’ve been producing The Voice of Social Sales podcast and launched my first book called Talking in Pictures, one of the few books about how camera-first platforms like Snapchat changed the way we build community through screens and how we communicate out brand. My latest book What to Post: How to Create Engaging Content That Builds Your Brand & Gets Results launched in February 2020 and is a #1 best seller in 6 different categories.

My most important role is being mom to Mason, wife to husband Brian and rescue-dog-mama to as many chihuahuas as possible.

Welcome back to our 83rd episode of the Launch Your Farm Show where I interview Melinda Kruse DiPerna with Keller Williams in San Diego.

Today Melinda shares how she went from working in marketing for Fortune 100 firms, to being a chemist, a stay a home mom, a consultant and got into real estate because she was investing  in short term rentals before they were a thing and wanted to help others do the same.

In the last few years, Melinda has learned to be much more purposeful and intentional with building her real estate business and has mastered what she calls “Lead gen from the couch” where she leverages a communication and relationship building strategy using social media platforms like Facebook.

In this episode Melinda and I talk about:

  • Why relationships skills trump sales skills all day long!
  • Melinda shares how she shifted from old school networking, to focusing on building relationships by being intentional with the follow up.
  • What system she uses to tackle her 3500 person database to convert more leads and build better connections.
