Get ready for an engaging podcast interview with Stuart, a real estate agent who broke free from the traditional mold. Instead of following the crowd, Stuart focused on expireds, FSBOs, cold calling, and door knocking, building a thriving business. However, it was a heartfelt moment with his son that made him realize the importance of work-life balance. Since then, he has created a business that allows him to enjoy quality time with his family, never working weekends or evenings.

Stuart’s expertise lies in “niche marketing,” where he has honed his skills in 1+ acre homes. By developing unique systems and tools, he has separated himself from the competition and created a business base that actively seeks him out. In this interview, Stuart shares his inspiring journey, filled with captivating stories and valuable insights.

About Our Guest

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 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.

How to Use Video Marketing to Supercharge Your Real Estate Farming Efforts

FarmerRyan — Tue, 18 Apr 2023 09:00:00 +0000

If you’re in the real estate business, you probably know how important farming is to your long term success. And if you’ve been following us here at Launch Your Farm, you totally get it! But with so many agents out there vying for the same prospects, it can be tough to stand out from the crowd. One way to differentiate yourself is by using video marketing to supercharge your geo farming efforts. Today, we’re going to dive into how to create a winning video marketing strategy that will help you attract more clients and close more deals in your farm.

What is real estate farming?

Before we dive into video marketing, let’s define real estate farming or “Geographic farming”. Farming is the process of targeting a specific geographic area and becoming the go-to agent for that area. This can include sending out mailers, hosting events, and engaging with the community and so many other strategies we teach here at Launch Your Farm. The goal is to become a trusted resource for buyers and sellers in that area, so they think of you when they’re ready to make a move.

Why use video marketing for real estate farming?

Video marketing is one of the most powerful tools for real estate agents for several reasons. First, it’s a great way to showcase your personality and expertise. By creating engaging videos, you can build trust with potential clients before even meeting them in person. Second, video is more memorable than text-based content, so prospects are more likely to remember you and your message. Third, you can reach more people with less effort. Imagine having the same conversation one on one to 500 people. Now imagine having that conversation once, and showing that video to 500 people. Think of the time, effort and energy you’d save. Finally, video is highly shareable, so you can extend your reach beyond your immediate sphere of influence and reach people that aren’t even in your sphere or farm.

How to create a video marketing strategy for real estate farming

Now that we’ve established why video marketing is important,it’s time to start planning our world domination with video. Let’s dive into how to create a winning video marketing strategy for real estate farming.

Define your target audience

The first step in creating any marketing strategy is to define your target audience. Who are you trying to reach with your videos? Are you targeting first-time homebuyers or luxury home sellers? Are you going to make videos for people already living in your farm or people thinking of moving to your farm? Are you trying to connect with people you already know, or people you’ve never met? There are a number of factors you want to consider at this stage. Understanding your target audience will help you create even better videos that resonate with them and get you results.

Choose your topics

Once you know who you’re targeting, it’s time to choose your topics. Your videos should be informative and engaging. They should be value adding and entertaining. They also should be videos that your audience can connect with. That is why it’s important to figure out who you are making the videos for FIRST. You need to think about what your target audience wants to know. You could create videos about the home buying process, local market trends, or tips for staging a home for sale, community based videos, things to do in the area, educational videos around real estate or around the home. It really is going to depend on your audience as well as your expertise and interests.

Plan your production

Before you start filming, you’ll need to plan your production. Think about what equipment you’ll need, where you’ll film, and who will be on camera. The great news is you don’t need a full movie studio to get started. A simple high quality smartphone and a tripod is all you need to get started. After you know the type of equipment and where you want to film, you’ll also need to plan your script and any visuals you want to include.

Film and edit your videos

Once you’ve planned your production, it’s time to film and edit your videos. Make sure your videos are well-lit and the sound quality is good. One tip that I’ve learned over the years is that while you may want to write out the perfect script, it usually doesn’t translate well on camera if you are trying to memorise it word for word. That’s why I strongly suggest creating an outline with bullet points of what you want to cover and just go with it after that.

When it comes to editing your videos, it really is going to depend on your budget, your timing and the amount of effort you want to put into it. While many people will say you must have fully professionally edited videos, we’ve seen a shift back to more “boot strapped” video production as many people don’t like the over-polished look. If you are going to do editing, it’s important that your videos have a similar look and feel to them so be sure your branding is on point.

You’ll need to decide if you want to become a video editor or have someone else do it. We’ll save that conversation for another day, as it can get pretty heated! 🙂

Promote your videos

Finally, you’ll need to promote your videos. It’s one thing to create great content, but the world needs to find out about it. An awesome video will just sit there in the internet space time continuum if no one knows about it. That’s why it’s important to share your videos on social media, include them in your email marketing campaigns, and post them on your website. Share them in local community groups, or get local businesses to help promote them. Promoting your videos should take more time and effort than it does creating them. I once read a blog a few years ago that suggested an 20/80 split. You should be spending 80% of your time promoting your videos and 20% of the time creating them. The magic happens in the promotion, not just the creation. The more exposure your videos get, the more likely they are to attract new clients and the more likely the members in your farm will know, like and trust you.

Best practices for real estate video marketing

Here are some best practices to keep in mind when creating your videos for your farm:

Keep it short

Attention spans are short, so keep your videos short and to the point. Aim for videos that are no longer than two to three minutes. (You can create long form videos as well, but be sure you have plenty of shorter videos that people can consume quickly.)

Be authentic

Your videos should showcase your personality and expertise. Don’t try to be someone you’re not. People want to work with people they can connect with, so don’t be fake, people can smell it a mile away.

Use a call to action

Include a call to action in your videos to encourage viewers to take the next step, whether that’s contacting you for more information or visiting your website, liking and subscribing or checking out other resources. Whatever you do, make sure your video has a “next step” for them to take. If you don’t tell them to take it, most likely they won’t.

Optimize for SEO

Make sure your videos are optimised for SEO by including relevant keywords in your titles, descriptions, and tags. This will help your videos rank higher in search engine results. The great news is this becomes super easy when we are hyper locally focused. Most agents and marketers are trying to catch a larger audience and aren’t touching any hyper local keywords, so we have a ton of opportunity here to become the go to agent in our farm.

Include captions

Adding captions to your videos is important for accessibility, as well as for viewers who may be watching without sound. Captions can also improve your SEO by providing more text for search engines to crawl.

Add value

Your videos should provide value to your viewers. Whether it’s educational or entertaining, your videos should leave your viewers feeling like they’ve learned something or been entertained. If there is no value, your videos won’t be watched and definitely won’t be shared. You need to create a reason for people to WANT to come back and watch more.

Conclusion

Video marketing is a powerful tool for real estate agents looking to supercharge their farming efforts. By creating engaging and informative videos, you can build trust with potential clients and extend your reach beyond your immediate sphere of influence and position you as the trusted source in your neighbourhood. Follow these best practices to create a winning video marketing strategy and watch as your real estate business takes off. You’ll be happy you did, and so will your audience!

FAQs

Do I need professional equipment to create real estate videos?

While professional equipment can certainly help, you can create effective videos using just a smartphone and a tripod.

How often should I create and share videos?

It’s important to be consistent with your video content, but the frequency will depend on your available resources and target audience. At a bare minimum, aim for at least one video per month.

What kind of videos should I create?

Your videos should be informative and engaging. Consider creating videos about the home buying process, local market trends, or tips for staging a home for sale and more importantly, local community content that everyone can resonate with.

How can I measure the success of my video marketing efforts?

You can track metrics such as views, engagement, and conversions to measure the success of your video marketing efforts.

How To Become A Local Leader And Connect With Your Community – Grant Findlay-Shirras

FarmerRyan — Thu, 19 Jan 2023 09:00:00 +0000

Episode 102 – Grant Findlay-Shirras – Parkbench.com

Listen On The Podcast

Welcome back to our 102^nd episode of the Launch Your Farm Show where I interview Grant Findlay-Shirras with Parkbench and the Become A Local Leader Podcast.

Today Grant shares how he got into the real estate marketing world, kind of by accident after working in the fitness space. Grant ended up building a marketing machine with his wife for her real estate business and quickly realized that other agents could benefit.

That led Grant to build Parkbench, which has quickly become one of the top marketing platforms for real estate agents by building a platform for hyper local content and helping agents become local leaders in their community.

In this episode Grant and I talk about:

Why he focused his attention on helping agents help local businesses make more money and how that translates into more transactions for the agents.
Grant shares how taking a community first approach can lead you to become the local leader very quickly and build relationships you never thought possible.
What type of content drives consumers and how you can leverage content to position you as the local expert and ambassador in your farm.
A SUPER easy way to add value to local businesses in your farm that helps separate you from the competition which makes it even easier to book more appointments.
How being a local expert can help you convert more appointments and gets buyers and sellers chasing YOU rather than the other way around.
Plus a ton of other ideas that you can use to grow geographic farm!

Connect with Grant Findlay-Shirras on their site at www.Parkbench.com and be sure to find them on social media as well. You can check out their reviews online as well to find out more what other agents think about them too.
