Event Experiences: Building Community and Deepening Relationships
Events are a powerful way to get face-to-face time with your database contacts and build community. These events can include client parties, holiday events, and community gatherings. By organizing events, you can establish a stronger bond with your contacts and position yourself as a trusted advisor. Events also provide social proof, showing that you are well-connected and trusted by a large gathering. Even if you're not the most outgoing person, there are ways to leverage events, such as partnering with local vendors or organizing smaller, more intimate gatherings like happy hours or coffee meetings.
Email Newsletters: Repurposing Content for Maximum Reach

By repurposing the same content you're publishing on social media or blogs, you can deliver snippets of that content in your email newsletters. This approach helps position you as an expert and trusted advisor, building trust and establishing yourself as the go-to real estate professional. Email marketing has a higher conversion rate and ROI, making it a valuable medium for nurturing your database and staying top of mind.
