Lead capture = value creation

OK here’s the deal, everyone wants to get leads online for their business, especially Real Estate agents or Realtors, but who understands what needs to happen to be able to do so.

The majority of people are under the impression that they can throw up a website online and their sales/business will skyrocket. You also have the crowd that believes that if they have enough social media accounts, fan pages, profiles ect that they will be flooded with business. This couldn’t be farther from the truth.

Yes there was a point in time that you could simply slap up a website or social media profile online and traffic would just come your way some how. What I just described was possible maybe in the mid to late 90’s but is and now its long gone. The game has changed.

Internet users are allot more savvy than they once were. They have become hip to pop ups, PPC ads, sponsored links and all the rest. What is one to do in this day and age to get themselves a lead or two? I am glad you asked. It’s back to basics.

Simply put, the jest of commerce is, person 1 gives something of value to person 2 for something person 1 deems valuable. Easy right? Wrong.

This simple way of conducting business is totally screwed up by the majority of business owners for many reasons. The most common way people screw this process up is they think they know what person 1 finds valuable when they don’t have a clue. Don’t make this mistake, ask your target market what they want before attempting to give it to them.

So in conclusion do not assume you know what your market wants ask them and then deliver it. Now when you are generating leads online you know you need to find out what your leads are looking for online and then give it to them in exchange for their contact info. Each target market will want something different so do not generalize whom you will be targeting, do your homework.

If it ain't broke don't fix it

If you are into Flashy, super hyped up new and exciting breakthroughs that have just been discovered and now are being told to you, then you may not like this blog post. Leave now or forever hold your peace.

Weird way of starting off a blog post wouldn’t ya say? Well despite the dramatic language it was a basic headline. Anyone familiar with copy writing knows that the job of the headline is to get people to read the first line of copy and the first line of copies job is, you guessed it, get the reader to read the second line of copy. Simple basic principals that have worked from the beginning and will continue to work till the end of time. And that’s what I wanna talk about. Basic principals.

I know everyone likes new exciting stuff whether in marketing or in life period, humans are just wired that way.  The key to being successful in today’s world of high tech gadgets and gizmos is to utilize new technologies while implementing basic marketing principals. Sounds simple right?

Yes my philosophy is simple but how many of you actually understand it? Here is a simple example of what I am talking about. The internet would be considered a new flashy gadget in my opinion, especially when you consider RE as a profession, so lets apply the philosophy I just described to it.

Traditional RE marketing would say publish a couple of ads in a local classified paper using direct response strategies. Why not do the same exact things online? So many people do not use Craigslist to post classified ads to generate leads, huge mistake. I would like to invite you to a special online workshop I will be holding on September 28.
