Real Estate Marketing Plan: Sample “Simple” Strategic Template for Real Estat...greenvisions
Real Estate Marketing Plan: Sample “Simple” Strategic Template for Real Estate Investors
https://oncarrot.com/real-estate-marketing-plan-template-for-market-domination/
Looking for an example of a template or sample real estate marketing plan, totally free?
We’ve got you covered.
real estate marketing plan sample template example strategy
Looking for a sample real estate marketing plan to create your strategy? We can help.
If you’re already a Carrot Member, you can download the sample 4 page document here (just make sure you’re logged in) – and tomorrow I’ll be going through this planning in detail on our Live Mastermind Call, so make sure you sign up now in case it fills up.
If you’re not a current member, keep reading and I’ll tell you how to get this valuable planning tool totally free.
First things first: a warning. Since this plan is for Carrot members, it assumes that you’ve got a website that has been proven to convert leads. If you’re trying to scrape together a bunch of tips to save a few bucks on building your website, you’re doing it wrong. It’s gonna cost you a lot more than the price of the monthly membership to build what we’ve built (we know, ’cause we built it)…. so just go sign up now and save yourself a ton of hassle.
There’s a few things you should do first to get that website up and running, and these only take a few minutes:
Get your testimonials up on the site, because social proof and credibility is key to conversions.
Get your bio up for the same reasons.
Make sure the copy on the site reflects your business and is in line with local laws (for example, if you or your team have a real estate license, you’ll need to change the copy to make sure you’re properly disclosing your license… but you should make that into a benefit, since a license gives you more options for sellers than someone operating without one).
Ok, so that last one might be complicated, if you’re totally new to the business… but you need to be making sure you’re aware of the laws around you, since being ignorant isn’t an excuse if you’re trying to get out of a five-figure fine for operating without a license (in some states)…. which reminds me that I need to mention we’re not attorneys or financial advisors, all of this stuff is just general advice and you need to get specific, professional advice on your real estate investment business… it’s a really good idea to have a competent lawyer make sure you’re not offering something illegal without knowing it.
Sample “Simple” Real Estate Marketing Plan
At its most basic level, a good marketing plan is answering a series of questions that helps you define your ideal targets, craft your business’s most compelling offers into a cohesive story, and uses good distribution channels to reach your ideal targets.

The New Journalist in the Age of Social MediaJD Lasica
In the age of social media, what should be the role of the New Journalist -- not one who works for a traditional news organization but a social entrepreneur launching a media project for a nonprofit?
The New Journalist at a nonprofit or startup will be a storyteller and multimedia producer but will also have to take on additional roles:
• entrepreneur
• conversation facilitator
• social marketer
• futurist
• metrics & research nerd
Here's my presentation for the New Media Lab on Nov. 23, 2009, in San Francisco, bringing together new media innovators to kick off a year-long project covering nonprofits, journalism and social media.
The focus is on how to leverage social media for Doing Good 2.0
Welcome to the Program Your Destiny course. In this course, we will be learning the technology of personal transformation, neuroassociative conditioning (NAC) as pioneered by Tony Robbins. NAC is used to deprogram negative neuroassociations that are causing approach avoidance and instead reprogram yourself with positive neuroassociations that lead to being approach automatic. In doing so, you change your destiny, moving towards unlocking the hypersocial self within, the true self free from fear and operating from a place of personal power and love.
https://bit.ly/BabeSideDoll4u Babeside is a company that specializes in creating handcrafted reborn dolls. These dolls are designed to be incredibly lifelike, with realistic skin tones and hair, and they have become increasingly popular among collectors and those who use them for therapeutic purposes. At Babeside, we believe that our reborn dolls can provide comfort and healing to anyone who needs it.
The Healing Power of Babeside's Handcrafted Creations
Our reborn dolls are more than just beautiful pieces of art - they can also help alleviate stress, anxiety, depression, and other mental health conditions. Studies have shown that holding or cuddling a soft object like a stuffed animal or a reborn doll can release oxytocin, which is often referred to as the "love hormone." This hormone helps us feel calm and relaxed, reducing feelings of stress and anxiety.
In addition to their physical benefits, reborn dolls can also offer emotional support. For many people, having something to care for and nurture can bring a sense of purpose and fulfillment. Reborn dolls can also serve as a reminder of happy memories or loved ones who have passed away.

10. L AY T H E G R O U N D W O R K
Big picture reality check
Before we talk tools, technology or campaigns, do a
self-assessment with your team.
Why are you doing this?
What core values drive your
organization?
What change would you like
to see in the world?
Is there clarity about what your
organization is trying to achieve?
Why should people care?
Do you have an idea worth spreading?
11. Before you plunge in ...
Understand that social media is a series of stages: crawl,
walk, run, fly
Do you have buy-in from top management? Cultural shift to
sharing & transparency?
Do you have a social media policy or guidelines?
Do you have a Strategic Social Media Plan in place?
Are you listening to your constituents & community?
Have you built a program before you turn to a campaign?
Have you identified and trained your team members?
12. Have you defined a clear theme?
Boil down your cause to a strong, single sentence
Vittana:
Help anyone go to college
Alter Eco:
Support fair trade
ActBlue:
Elect progressive candidates
DonorsChoose:
Support public classrooms in need

15. E S TA B L I S H B U S I N E S S G O A L S
How can you use social media?
1. Raise public awareness of your mission or cause
2. Raise funds for a cause or campaign
3. Reach new constituents or supporters
4. Build a community of champions
5. Recruit volunteers
6. Get people to take real-world actions
7. Enhance existing communications programs
8. Involve the community in decision-making
9. Advance your organization’s mission
16. Map metrics to goals
Business goals Things to measure
• Grow email list # newsletter subscribers
• Online visibility, branding increase in traffic or linkback #s
• Increase comments on blog avg. # comments/post
• Increase positive mentions of mentions or pick-ups in blogs
organization or program & social networks
• Have visitors stick around stick rate, bounce rate
• Make our content more viral # of shares
• Get people to take action # of petition signatures
• Get people to attend event # of registrants, year over year
17. Best practices for the social Web
Think of social media as a way to
talk with your constituents,
supporters and stakeholders.
Build relationships. Good
relationships take time.
It’s not all about you. Offer value.
Give more than you take.
Be a connector. Reciprocate.
Follow back.
Empower supporters, don’t market
to consumers.
18. Best practices for the social Web
Be authentic and transparent about who
you are. Disclose your relationship to the
nonprofit/products/services you promote.
Trust each other. Learn as you go. Make
mistakes. Dare to fail.
Don’t be defensive — be open to critical feedback.
Successful campaigns engender authentic enthusiasm.
Social media still comes down to the cause or product.
Conversations can’t be controlled or “managed.” But they
can be engaged, informed and elevated.
Remember: Audience is not the same as community.
19. Build community, not eyeballs
here’s an amazing
difference between building
an audience and building a
community. An audience
will watch you fall on a
sword. A community will fall
on a sword for you.
— Chris Brogan
Author, “Trust Agents”
20. Create a listening post
Set up a listening post
(monitoring dashboard)
to track what’s being
said about your
organization or cause.
Listen before engaging.
Deputize folks to do this.
Supplement with a social
media dashboard.
Engage before an Ask.
Monitoring resources: socialbrite.org/wfn
22. TWITTER
Make Twitter work for you
Staff should be trained on how to use Twitter.
Not a broadcasting medium to just distribute press releases or
your headlines.
Start by listening & observing.
Be yourself, be conversational, lose
the marketing jargon.
Use it for outreach, soliciting ideas,
customer support, to announce events,
to recommend articles, to identify experts.
#1 traffic driver: retweets. Use ‘Please RT’ strategically.
Tweets with a URL are 3x more likely to be retweeted.
Twitter drives 4%+ of traffic to NY Times, Facebook, etc.
23. JD’s 60-30-10 Twitter rule
60% retweets, pointing to
value, sharing other voices
30% responding, connecting
10% promoting, announcing
25. Use hashtags to join conversations
Find relevant hashtags through
Twitter Search or tagdef.com
Join (but don’t spam)
conversation threads
Start your own hashtag
Some hashtags to latch on to:
#women #health #latino
#education #democracy #politics
#Obama #news #media

Scope out Twitter Lists that intersect with your organization
or social cause.
Connect with other social media influencers through their
blogs and other networks.
50. Remove barriers to participation

not with the tools.
Listen & measure! Evaluate,
iterate, relaunch.
Tell your wonderful stories
Use your community — your
biggest resource: your supporters!
61. Don’t settle for the status quo
If you do not change
direction, you may
end up where you
are heading.
— Lao Tse
