While relationship building is super critical in real estate, it’s important to keep in mind that there are only a finite number of leads in your personal network to leverage as a real estate agent. Ensuring you leverage your online presence to boost sales is a tactic every agent needs to learn to employ.

Understanding your Audience

Who are your typical buyers in your community?

Understanding your target audience is the foundation of any successful marketing strategy. Identify the demographics of your community, such as age, income level, family size, and preferences. Are you catering to first-time homebuyers, families looking for larger homes, or retirees searching for downsizing options? Tailor your marketing efforts to resonate with your community's specific needs.

What do your buyers care about?

Once you've identified your typical buyers, delve deeper into their priorities and concerns. Do they prioritize school districts, proximity to amenities, or a sense of community? Understanding their needs allows you to highlight the features of each property that matter most to them, increasing the chances of conversion.

What are the hot areas in your local market?

Stay informed about the trends and developments in your local real estate market. Know which neighborhoods are gaining popularity and why. This knowledge will help you target your marketing efforts towards these hot areas, making your listings more appealing to potential buyers.

Camphor provides an internal datalake on transaction histories and home sales for information in local markets.

Build your Online Presence

What social media channels do your buyers use?

Establishing a strong online presence is crucial in today's digital age. Identify the social media platforms popular among your target audience. For example, if you are catering to tech workers as homebuyers in the Bay Area, CA, you will likely want to focus more on LinkedIn Ads.

Whether it's Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, or others, tailor your content to each platform to maximize engagement. Share visually appealing photos, virtual tours, and neighborhood highlights to capture your audience's attention. Learn more about our tips for increasing your online presence in this article.

Have you checked out an IDX Website Builder like Camphor?

When building your online presence as a buyer’s agent, it is absolutely critical to build your website with an integration with your MLS’s real time IDX feed to make sure you are sharing fresh listings with buyers. While Placester, IDXBoost, and Luxury Presence all offer IDX website building service, Camphor has a unique set of product features.

Camphor leverages AI in our technology stack to help you generate warm lead conversions off of your website through our high quality, luxury website designs. Our AI search engine will be integrated into your website to allow any prospective buyer to ask a personalized question to filter properties in an area such as whether a specific neighborhood is good for parents with small kids, which areas are more prone to earthquakes or wildfires, which properties are waterfront properties as an example, and so much more! We also generate reports leveraging our proprietary datalake as well as offer your prospective homebuyers an AI assistant to answer more questions about specific properties. Only once a prospective buyer has asked questions indicating their personal preferences does Camphor upsell the homebuyer on your behalf to contact you as an agent, thereby providing a higher quality lead.

Have you set up a budget for online advertising?

Allocate a budget for online advertising to expand your reach and visibility. If you have a core client profile you are targeting, including those keywords can really help with generating high quality leads to your website and encourage prospective homebuyers to engage with you. Once you have a customer profile, experiment with platforms like Google Ads, Facebook Ads, and more to see which campaigns perform the best.
