Challenge: Uncertainty about how to brand real estate digital advertising campaign

Jessica Lirette, a 30-​year media sales vet from Midco, was looking for a way to help a local business create a real estate digital advertising campaign.

“The business owner is a local real estate broker who is now looking to brand her business and add new agents,” said Lirette. “They had an idea [as to] what they wanted as an image and a brand but didn’t know how to get there.”

Solution: Share research from local account, digital audit, and AudienceSCAN reports

Lirette ended up using a well-​rounded approach, using AdMall's many reports, to create a real estate digital advertising campaign for the company.

“I [like to] share statistics from the digital audit and local account information to support what I am suggesting for branding and marketing by incorporating it into my proposals,” said Lirette.

Specifically, Lirette used the B2C advertising response section from the AudienceSCAN report to shape the real estate digital advertising campaign.

“Where people see ads [is what] made them move forward,” said Lirette.

Result: A brand new real estate digital advertising campaign

Lirette sold the company on a multi-​product campaign of TV, display, SEM, and social media. The real estate digital advertising campaign was an annual sale that closed for $45,600.

“I would recommend AdMall [because of all of its tools,]” said Lirette. “[From] co-​op, digital audit, local account info, all have helped my clients grow their business and make more money. "

It is the baseline report a rep should run before their first sales call that will put them on a level playing field with a potential client.

More About: Real Estate Agents/​Agencies

Real estate agents broker the deal between buyers and sellers during ownership transfer of land, housing, or commercial properties. Agents receive a percentage of the value of the deal as their fee. Agents may work solely on behalf of the buyer or the seller.

Real estate agents face increased competition from discount vendors including those who operate solely via the internet. Traditional agents must become savvy about the internet to maintain their market share and convince consumers that they offer a valuable service.

The industry is closely linked to the general health of the housing market. The Bureau of Labor Statistics predicts an industry outlook that is about equal to the general economy. There are approximately 977,014 businesses in this industry and revenue is approximately $222 billion.

Note that there is a difference between realtors and real estate agents. A real estate agent is anyone who is licensed to help people buy and sell commercial or residential property. The agent may do so as a sales professional, an associate broker or a broker. A Realtor is a trademarked term that refers to a real estate agent who is an active member of the National Association of Realtors.
