Social Media for Real Estate Agents

[Andrew Casal]

Hello everyone!

I'm starting out with my real estate agent journey and am looking for some guidance with my social media. Does anyone have a guide or some tips.

Current plan is to use Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn. This will not be my main strategy but a supplement to finding clients. I am trying to figure out how often I should be posting, what kind of copy I should be posting, and where I can get some of that copy.

I will be automating a lot of these postings so I'm not sure if a timely posts makes sense but looking for any feedback.

Appreciate the help in advance!

@Jonathan Greene I do agree with you that I see way too many agents just blindly posting listings on social media.

Personally I am only looking to provide value with things like market insight and investing education, similar to @Justin Phillips' point. 

I am also looking to automate a fair amount of it so that I find the materials that I want to post and just put them in my CRM's scheduler so it goes between all the platforms and puts out the content. Only looking to maybe spend 1-2 hours a month on social media as a whole.

 Dude listen to me carefully... because this is something most of you are severely lacking.

It doesn't matter what you do and how you do it and what you use to do it (linked in Facebook smoke signals...)

It is about:

1. omni presence, 
2. credibility, 
3. and value.

If you have these 3 elements in place you will dominate and in the process destroy your competition big time.

Anyone that says that social media is no good or that too many people are using it or... blaa blaa BLAAHHH they don't know CRAP.

It is about those 3 things and that is what you use for EVERYTHING and ANY business... 

Omni presence..

You need to be EVERYWHERE>.. any of you that have ever landed on my website will see me EVERYWHERE, I will stalk your Assbutt everywhere you go until you can't stand it anymore and click on my post.

Credibility

You need to be credible. This should be intuitively so. One look and without a doubt they need to see you as an authoritative credible entity in your space.

Value..

You need to present value to your ideal audience. How? Think! Come up with something. This is what sets you apart from the lameasses that cant use their friggin brains even if their lives depended on it.

That is ALL you need! Period!

PERIOD!

Automation is easy. Just a lot of initial legwork but then... done..

Here is  just a small part of my automation system. 

It keeps growing and evolving covering more and more scenarios and situations.

It is has become an obsession, it is fun and addicting. My system is simply a living breathing entity that does it all for me.

 Going to generally agree with Jerryl here. Im a top 1% agent. I derive like 95% of my business from social media. When you read **** I post on social media, it is typically value driven (and comedy driven) and very much is about building my credibility. Im not everywhere though. Im on BP, Instagram, and Facebook primarily. I focus on the ones that it is easiest for me do, so I dont waste time doing the ones Im not as good at like Linkedin or Tik Tok. 

 I am going to have to agree with you agreeing with me because I really agree with what you agreed with , agreeing with me. I am a very agreeable person and anyone that disagrees is agreeably wrong and a douchebag for not agreeing with me agreeing with you agreeing with me!

Get that?
