Effective marketing is more than just putting out ads and hoping for calls—it’s a strategic process of drawing in prospects with messages that resonate. Great marketing is built on principles and frameworks that ensure each piece captures attention, evokes emotion, and prompts action. Let’s dive into the essential components of marketing that drives real engagement and results.
Step 1: Grab Their Attention
To get noticed, your marketing has to stand out. Here are some ways to grab people’s attention:
-
Start with a Surprising Fact – A fact or statistic can make people stop and think. For example: “Did you know that most homes in this area sell within 10 days? Find out how!”
-
Ask a Question – Questions like, “Would you sell your home if you received a great offer?” get people thinking about what they want.
-
Create Urgency – Show that time is limited. For instance: “Be the first to know about new listings in your area.”
-
Show Value – Tell people why it matters to them. For example: “We sell homes faster than the average—ask us how we can help you.”
These techniques help your message stand out from the many other ads people see each day.
Step 2: Create an Emotional Connection
Once you have their attention, make them feel understood. When you connect with people’s emotions, they feel more confident working with you.
Imagine this scenario: A homeowner wants to sell their home but is unsure because of past bad experiences. You could say:
“Selling a home can be stressful, but with the right agent, it doesn’t have to be. Our team knows how to make the process smooth and successful.”
This shows the prospect that you understand their feelings and their desired outcome: a smooth, successful sale.
Step 3: Encourage Action
To get results, tell people what to do next. A clear, simple call to action works best. Here are some examples:
- “Call us today to learn more.”
- “Want to know what your home is worth? Contact us now!”
- “Get early access to listings—sign up now.”
Each of these calls to action tells prospects exactly what to do and gives them a reason to take the next step.
Step 4: Share Across Channels
To reach more people, share your message on multiple platforms. For example, you can turn one message into:
- A social media post
- An email to clients
- A postcard for your neighborhood
- A text to your contact list
