Quick Tips to Expand Your Real Estate Social Media Reach

In the real estate industry, time is at a premium. These social media tips for real estate will help you make more connections, nurture them, and turn them into leads and clients. Try these tips for 15 minutes at lunch to expand your social media reach.

1. Connect and Engage with Potential Leads

As you network, host open houses, or attend events, you'll meet lots of potential new clients. Look them up on Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn and invite them to connect with your business pages. This is a great start to building a relationship. After you connect, continue to engage with them. As your business page, like or comment on any relevant updates, or even share a link to an article about something of mutual interest. You're building trust and staying top-of-mind with potential new clients.

2. Like and Follow Other Pages

Do a Facebook or Twitter search for the businesses you respect in the real estate industry, as well as colleagues or other pages in your target market, then "like" and "follow" them. This will help you measure what similar pages are doing and develop new strategies. It can also be a great way to find quality content to share with your audience.

3. Use Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn to Search for Leads

Have you ever seen someone post on Facebook, "Moving to Springfield, what are the best neighborhoods to live in?" You can answer these types of questions! All three of these social media sites have "Search" functions that are underutilized. Search for the name of your city and keywords such as "moving" "buying" "selling" or "where to live" and chime in with your best advice. Give your name and credentials and a link to your website, and you've made a new contact and established your expertise.
