3 Social Post Techniques to Highlight Your Business

May 7, 2021

When it comes to standing out in the real estate industry, social media is an absolute must. From eye-catching listings to personality-filled stories, how an agent manages their social content is as crucial to their business as their closing process. The problem is with so many social channels to juggle, and so much clutter to cut through, some agents don’t even know where to start. Below are some helpful tips on what to share, when to share it, and how to say it.

Hyperlocal Information

If there’s one thing clients love, it’s hyperlocal information. Keeping current and potential customers aware of the latest market trends in their neck of the woods is a surefire way for agents to position themselves as experts while providing valuable information to their audience. And for agents with a Command account, the hard part (finding the stats and insights) is already done for them.

What to share:

  • Stats that change on a regular basis (number of houses for sale, average home price, average days on market, etc.)
  • Local lifestyle insights (hobbies, interests, popular dining and shopping establishments)

When to share it:

  • Whenever something in the neighborhood changes

How to share it:

  • Create a weekly, monthly, or seasonal roundup to keep your followers informed of the latest changes
    • Things are heating up this spring, including [insert neighborhood or ZIP code] real estate🔥! Take a look at the latest market stats.
  • Highlight a popular activity in a specific area
    • It doesn’t get much better than the coffee scene in [insert neighborhood or ZIP code]☕. Browse the fresh-brewed listings in the area!
  • If you have a Command login, make a Neighborhood SmartVideo
    • [Insert neighborhood] has never looked lovelier! Watch my video for all of the latest market stats and local insights.

Client Testimonials

Word-of-mouth recommendations in real estate carry the same weight as they do in any industry. Highlighting a quote from a happy customer is a great way for agents to establish credibility while allowing their brand to shine.

What to share:

  • Quotes and images from happy clients
  • Stats about how many people you’ve helped buy or sell a home

When to share it:

  • Interspersed between listings and other lead-generating announcements

How to share it:

  • When a customer thanks you for going above and beyond for them.
    • From answering 3 AM phone calls 📞 to knocking on doors 🚪, there’s nothing I won’t do to make sure my clients are happy.
  • When a client has a positive and unique memory about working with you
    • Working with people like [insert client] is why I love real estate. Shoot me a message if you’re looking for an agent and a friend 🤝.
  • When you help a significant number of people find the home of their dreams
    • I’m humbled to have earned the trust of [insert number] customers, and if you’re looking to buy or sell a home, I always have room for one more.

    When will the neighborhood snapshot info start working? I have reached out to support, and they said they are aware it is down but not sure when it will be fixed. I am a new agent and really wanting to start marketing my neighborhood. I was excited for this feature, but it is only helpful if it works.

    • Ada Ciuca says:

      Hi Milly! Thank you for your comment. Our tech team tested the product and it seems like everything should be working normally. They are recommending that you open a support ticket for one-on-one help, which can be done through Command (agent.kw.com) and clicking the question mark in the upper right hand corner to chat with them. Hope that helps!
