will offer. Your home will be marketed on every online real estate website,

Realtor.com, Craigslist, Facebook, YouTube, and more! You will be presented

with a Marketing Plan showing you every action I will take to get your home sold.

Your home will also be marketed via the tope social media and online blog

channels as well.

100% Happiness Guarantee J

I am so confident that you will be thrilled with my marketing results and choosing

me as your Realtor, that you can cancel your listing agreement at any time –

that’s my 100% Happiness Guarantee! Most brokers will hold you to the length

of time of the listing agreement you signed. I will never do that because I know

that I will deliver results. You can be sure that I will market your home effectively

and negotiate for the highest price between you and the buyer. That’s my

promise and service commitment to you as my valued client. No strings attached!

Over 90% of buyers look for a home on the Internet first before

MARKETING STRATEGIES UTILIZED TO GET YOU THE BEST PRICE

Page 8: For Sale By Owner Smart Seller Marketing Program

Professional Wide-angle Photography

According to data from the National Association of Realtors, 89 percent of buyers

use online tools in their home searches. “A Picture is Worth A Thousand Words”.

Your first home showing is online, so your home has to win the beauty contest.

Great photographs are probably the single most important piece of any online

listing. Wide-angle Lense Photography of your home is important to make the right

first impression.. It is imperative that your home shows better than others The wide angle lens gives a better view of your rooms (like they would see in person).

All my listings get interior & exterior pictures taken with a wide-angle lenseprofessional camera producing “magazine quality” pictures which showcase your home in the best way possible. Your home needs to win the beauty contest compared to the other homes on the market! The first showing of your home is online, it is imperative that your home shows better than others!

High Quality Sharp Photos

Overall, when viewing an online real-estate listing, home buyers spend

about 60% of their time on photos, 20% on the property description and

20% on the real-estate agents' remarks section. Therefore – the

pictures are the most important.

The likelihood of your home selling at or above list price is 31% higher

when you use professionally taken photos. For sale is not a destination,

sold is. Sharp photos put SOLD signs in front yards.

Page 10: For Sale By Owner Smart Seller Marketing Program

Video Marketing

A professional video of your home will be taken as a buyer would see your home

when walking thru is the latest tool in real estate home marketing. Buyers are

attracted to video and are much more likely to view the video as opposed to

scroll through screens of pictures of your home. Also, when a buyer calls to see

your home after seeing the video, they are already “pre-sold” and are more likely

to be a qualified buyer for your home. The video will include music and great

photography highlighting your home’s best features. Video really allows

homebuyers to create that emotional connection.

The video will be also promoted on all online sites, Facebook, and Blog posts.

Video Marketing of your Home Online

Ain addition to YouTube, your home’s video will be also promoted on all

online sites (Realtor.com, Zillow, Trulia, etc),the MLS, Facebook,

Google+, Blog posts, and your home’s unique website.

Interested homebuyers can preview your home online and are often

already “pre-sold” before arranging a showing for your home. The

video gives you a virtual 24x7 Online “Open House” everyday for buyers

to see your home!

Page 12: For Sale By Owner Smart Seller Marketing Program

A dedicated website for our home will allow your video, pictures, description,

and tons of other info to be showcased in one place. Your home should have its

own web address (URL) which buyers can use to search for your home directly

on the internet, i.e. http://123YourAddress.com.

These advanced marketing and home presentation strategies will bring more

buyers in the door and, as a result, a higher sales price. It is imperative that

these are incorporated into a professional home marketing plan.

YOUR HOME’S OWN WEBSITE – YourAddress.com

Your Address

Social Media Marketing

To expand the reach of your home marketing, I utliize social media sites like

Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and Instagram. Paid social media promotion is

a important element of a successful marketing plan. Facebook is

approaching Google as having the highest internet traffic.

Sample promotions include:

- Facebook Fan Page and Realtor Group promotion

Facebook “Promoted Posts” of your home’s listing and Video to targeted

home buyers

- “Just Listed” Anouncement on agent’s Blog, Fan Page, and LinkedIn

- Posts to community SunNews webpages

- Twitter tweet of new listing

- Instagram photos shared on the web

Social proof and sharing by local homeowners and buyers creates a “BUZZ”

around your new listing and home video and can be a magnet to potential

buyers.

Mobile/Smartphone Marketing

Your home’s visual presentation on mobile is more important than ever.

Sellers need to make sure their listing looks great on a smartphone. Photos

will be taken with a high-resolution camera, because that’s what looks best

on mobile. Zillow reported that in January, nearly 600 million homes were

viewed on Zillow’s mobile app. That’s 223 homes per second.

Recently Realtor.com predicted that mobile search is most likely going to

surpass traditional online search for volume of buyer searches in the

coming year. It is imperative that a seller make sure their home is marketed

effectively to mobile users to increase your likelihood of a sale!

Mobile marketing on Realtor.com, REMAX.com, Zillow, Trulia, & more with

instant home buyer access to me via their smartphone to schedule

showings and see pictures. This allows all smartphone and tablet home

shoppers to have “anywhere” access to your home’s listing and to easily

arrange a showing.
