Facebook marketing strategies

Ronald Cooperman
Posted

BP nation

I am a buy and hold SFR investor in zip code 08030. I am looking for strategies to market for off market deals thru Facebook or other social media platforms. I am willing to outsource this on a fee basis.

Any advise is appreciated.

I am not very tech literate.

Thanks

Ron

Jerryl has a point if;;;;  

1) you have the time to ramp up and learn some complicated technology and system

2) your brain can actually do this (mine couldn't).

3)you actually want to learn FB marketing.  Although as a (past) engineer and currently agree and practice what Jerryl says, know to the expert level everything that your business depends on,  there are limits especially with these technology areas.

I had the good fortune of a freelancer FB marketing knowledgeable guy contact me via my BP contact info (in my post footer below) and offered to set up and run a FB PPC (pay per click) ad campaign.  I pay for the FB ad costs, running about $500/mo and i pay him $1k for every deal I close.  Heck!   That is a great deal for me.  Sadly no deals closed.  Lots of dead leads that I suspect (just me guessing) are fake leads FB is sending through to make me feel like I'm getting something for my $500/mo.   No need to hyjack this thread on FB returning fake leads, please don't.   

I'll give you this guys contact info via PM. I like him, competent re setting up an REI campaign. Is an investor himself...

To be open,  no deals so far.  I'm targeting subject to, low equity, but due to FB or ?? constraints on your wording, we are just saying contact ... for a cash offer.   FWIW there may be smarter ways, I'm just saying, I'm not able to ramp up to learn the best ways, nor am I willing to sign up for the you tube FB marketing guru (Chico ???)  Nice guy, good videos....   Just no time or energy.   

I feel that in time, leads will start flowing here in my Atlanta / chattanooga market.  Could be the big guys's are also advertising on FB and my less sophisticated ads are being out competeted by better ads.  Only guessing.  Its always better to be a small fish in a small pond, then a small fish in a big pond (Atlanta).   FB ads may work very well in smaller markerts.  Maybe Jerryl can comment and offer helps?
