Even though there are several
industries such as real estate, petrochemicals, aviation, fast food, toys. But
there is only one business. Lead generation. Devoid of leads and consumers, you
have no business. It is a trouble every business must resolve,
and the central problem of any business. You need to make out where
you are going to get your real estate leads before you even begin your realtor
business. And where you get them depends on the kinds of leads you want to
target.
The Types of Real Estate Leads
for Realtors
Here are the types of real estate
leads in descending order of quality:
- Referrals
The most essential thing to do to
get referrals is to do a good job. No one is going to refer an agent with whom
they had a bad experience. Go above and beyond, with customer appreciation
gifts, great communication, and lots of follow up even after your commission
check is cashed. Stay top-of-mind for your clients, both past and present! Business
referrals and agent can also be a perfect source. You can also join referral
networks.
- Organic
Organic leads is usually related
with SEO and ranking on Google. But your audience is a form of organic lead, as
well. Your Facebook likes, Twitter followers, Instagram friends, anyone who
sees your content without you having to pay to get it in their face is an
organic lead. That said, mixing organic traffic with endorsed traffic is often
a needed combo, particularly when scaling. But organic leads are the eventual
goal. Most agents will liable want to target some form of organic leads. After
you have built the foundation, they are free leads! No monthly fee. No
competing with other agents. They are your audience and your lead gen system.
- Portals
The portals are giant home search
websites from which you can purchase leads. Due to their vast resources and
digital savvy, they rank for most of the most cutthroat keywords on Google. You
cannot contend with them there. Advertising with one, or numerous, of the
portals is a completely lawful way of keeping your channel full of business.
- PPC
You can run campaigns
in Google AdWords. Just about every digital marketing company is eager to
run your Google AdWords campaigns. Several real estate
platforms offer PPC marketing at an added cost. It is not just Google.
Bing has an advertising program, too. These highly optimized paid results, if
capable answers to their requirements, will get clicks and earn you business!
- Social Media
You can operate your own Facebook
Ads fairly easily. Similar to PPC, there are some best practices when it comes
to optimizing a campaign, and it can get quite costly. It is also one to think
about outsourcing. There are companies like BoldLeads that contentedly will
hunt down leads for you.
Understanding where your leads
are coming from is helpful in evaluating the quality of them, what you should
expect, and how to handle leads as they come in. It also should give you
insight into which lead sources you should cc.
