You won a new listing! …Now what? It’s time to start marketing. With two goals (selling the home and showing the client you put forth a satisfactory marketing effort), listing promotion can be a challenge. Here are six tips for listing promotion, using the tools you already have.
1. Segment your CRM
Start with who you know. Would the listing be a good investment property? Filter and reach out to the investors in your sphere. Is it a great family home? Segment your sphere based on families and look for the people you haven’t touched base with in a while. Is the property right on a golf course? Look at your contacts who golf and reach out. If they aren’t looking to move, they might have friends who are.
One of the perks of having a well-organized, up-to-date CRM is that performing these searches becomes incredibly quick and easy.
2. Make it easy to share
Once you’ve identified who the property would go a great fit for, dive into your presentation builder. Put together a presentation deck that features the relevant property highlights and use that in your listing promotion efforts. Showcase your personal brand alongside the property and send it out to those in your sphere via email or social media.
By creating property overviews that are professional and engaging, people will be likely to forward them along to people they know, generating a word-of-mouth buzz.
3. Create a video
Leverage video to get people’s attention. Create a short walk-through video showing off the property. Video marketing is effective because it’s intriguing, easy to consume, and gets people to engage with it. Listing promotion using video can be much stronger than your typical content. Also, there’s no need for fancy equipment. For these short videos, your smart phone quality should be just fine.
4. Post through your social channels
The truth is that social media is a great way to quickly reach a large number of people. If you have a following on any of your social media platforms and frequently engage with people, this is the strategy for you. Facebook and Instagram are great places for listing promotion because they’re both heavily visual. Make sure you showcase the best images, add a catchy description, and post away.
5. Advertise on Facebook
Ready to really show your clients you’re willing to go the extra mile? Try promoting your listing on Facebook. It’s a great platform for your listing promotion because it generates a lot of engagement and is easy to target certain areas or income levels. Facebook advertising can be a pain, but using Advertise Your Listing, it only takes 5-10 minutes. By following three easy steps right there in your Moxi Engage CRM, you can have a listing promoted on Facebook quickly and easily. You can even select your reporting parameters to have automated reports sent directly to the client.

6. Post on your agent website
This one may sound like a ‘no duh’ but it’s also easy to overlook. Make sure your latest listings are not only listed on your website, but that your website is always up to date. The vast majority of people go straight to the internet to search for agents and listings when they begin the home buying process, so make sure you put your best foot forward when it comes to your personal agent website.
