Compare My Marketing Plan

If you are thinking about selling your home, you should take a moment to read about my plan.  I have learned how to expertly market homes and other companies and individual agents just do not do what I do. I will do all the things that other Realtors do, the conventional things, but I also will perform state of the art techniques that will allow your listing to soar in market exposure.  My advanced understanding of marketing will set your listing apart.

Since 2008, I have attended weekly classes on marketing and search engine optimization. You will be amazed at the depth of my internet marketing and you will see results. I can help you list and sell your home in the Austin Texas area, Lake Travis areas, Round Rock, Cedar Park, Leander, Lago Vista and Georgetown. I know how to list your home professionally.

With the Austin MLS and my expertly designed website, I can assure you that your home will get maximum exposure on the internet by using a wide variety of web-based marketing tools such as videos, podcasts, virtual tours, syndication to 100′s of Real Estate websites and more. When selling your home, it is important that you have this exposure on the web. Remember 87% of people looking to buy a home use the internet. I utilize Search Engine Optimization….because it works.

Read this article that helps to explain where the buyers are, and I go to where the buyers are to best market your home.

Conventional Marketing

I believe in open houses and we have 80+ Realtors in our office who like to hold open houses. This method of marketing has been popular with Realtors and homeowners for years.

• Placing your listing in our local multiple listing services makes your listing available to all the local Realtors in the Austin area.
• I use professional photographers to photograph your home and I also utilize virtual tours since a majority of buyers look at homes on the internet and they enjoy seeing the inside of the home.
• Of course, I will place a “For Sale” sign in your yard and, for tech savvy buyers, there will be a sign rider where they can text for information.
• Flyers with photos of your home placed inside the home.

My Technology Marketing

Featured Listings

When you list with me, your listing will be posted on the featured listings section of my web site, Sky Realty featured listings section, a highly optimized website and local Sky Realty agent ‘s websites. Our websites are optimized for specific areas to gain maximum exposure of our inventory for people relocating in and to the Central Texas area.

Social Networks

Yes, we can also post your listing on Twitter for folks that follow our Twitter feed for the latest in real estate updates. It will also be posted on Facebook, LinkedIn, etc.

Virtual Tours and Slide Presentations

Virtual tours and slide presentations are all part of my visual strategy. If you can visit the home via your computer, you are apt to get a better feel of the home. Seeing is believing.

Text Messaging for Real Estate

My listings are available to potential buyers via text messaging. By texting a code displayed on my signs, information on the property (including photos) and links to our websites are immediately texted back to the user. It is instant gratification via their smart phones, no more waiting for flyer boxes to be filled anymore and it is totally green. All residential listings will show up on our mobile website for best exposure.

If you would like to see a sample of our mobile website, text the message “sky” to the number 88000. Standard rates apply, we do not charge for it. Our mobile website is provided by Drivebuytech.com.

Austin Area Real Estate Listings Blogs

For all residential listings that are listed with Sky Realty, a seller will automatically get an individual blog that highlights and capitalizes the listing to many Real Estate communities such as Active Rain. These blogs, often times, will show up in the natural search for a town or subdivision specific just like the podcasts. These blogs are customized by SKY Realtors and give consumers a human touch that tells what that community, neighborhood or home is all about.

E-flyers for New Listings to Austin REALTORS

I offer e-flyers that are distributed to other real estate agents in Austin and the surrounding areas to help bring your property to the attention of other agents. I do this because 80% of the time, a Buyer’s agent will bring the buyer. In addition, we use a flyer program that broadcasts your home out to Google, Trulia, Zillow, Craig’s List, Bing, Yahoo, MSN and many more real estate focused sites.

Open Houses

Sky agents are passionate about Open Houses. We are dedicated to showing off your home to as many able bodies as possible… whether it be on-line or in person. We also use various programs to help our open houses gain maximum exposure.
