Comments on: What Did You Do in 2009 That Made A Huge Difference? http://www.geekestateblog.com/what-did-you-do-in-2009-that-made-a-huge-difference/ Thu, 09 Feb 2012 21:53:00 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: Marissa Myers http://www.geekestateblog.com/what-did-you-do-in-2009-that-made-a-huge-difference/#comment-152831 Marissa Myers Sat, 02 Jan 2010 10:09:41 +0000 http://www.geekestateblog.com/?p=3437#comment-152831 2009 was a great year for helping clients put together online lead generation tactics that actually work. You know how sometimes you post your listings online, or blog, or tweet, or pay for traffic and hold your breath, just hoping it gets results? Sometimes it doesn’t. And because you’re so close to it, it’s hard to know why. It doesn’t matter whether you’re a broker or an agent, you have to figure out what’s going on so you can start getting better results. In 2009, it really made a difference for my clients and me to take it, analyze it, and tell you exactly where to focus so it starts generating more leads and sales. 2009 was a great year for helping clients put together online lead generation tactics that actually work.

</b><br>A client and I created a house that tweets as a way for the house to tell its story. There's now a stream of tweets from coming from the house we’re selling on its single property website. Check out the house tweets: <a href="http://www.355santarita.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.355santarita.com</a> <br>"I'm three blocks from Starbucks." <br>
"There's some great tennis courts around the corner." 
<br>"I'm open today from 1:30 PM to 4:30. Come see me!" <br>

People follow the house, and tune in to its story over time. And it's fun to do! 

<br><br><b>Agent recruiting campaign</b><br>A client is growing his real estate brokerage and wants to recruit the right agents to his firm, but there aren’t enough hours in the day to meet and follow up with his long list of topnotch candidates. So we’re extending his reach with a lead-generating website and email campaign to help him cultivate relationships with agents he’d like to hire.

<br><br><b>Buyer lead generation campaign
</b><br>I'm now working with a broker on a lead generation system that delivers homebuyer leads to agents. The goal is an Internet marketing system that’s scalable and automates follow up to generate Internet leads and help agents manage leads more effectively. We plan to buy PPC traffic from Homegain, paired with a backend contact management system that works with our IDX. Jeff, hats off to you for implementing your CRM system in 2009!
