I am sometimes asked what type of social media do we use to help promote our team, sell our real estate, and help our friends and clients achieve everything that they want to achieve. The truth of the matter is that without social media in today's society, most communication would come to a screeching halt. Sure, we use email and text messaging and smart phones, but ultimately most large mass messages are passed through social media. Without social media we would not get the updates on day-to-day life or the important notifications that tend to shape not only our days, but our weeks, months, and even our futures.
What type of social
media is important to you? As far as we here at the Simonson team are
concerned, using such standards as Facebook and Twitter and even Instagram help
drive business to our website and to our phones to create conversations for
clientele. These are just three of the social media outlets that we use and do
not even include the likes of LinkedIn and active rain, both of which are more
professional bass as opposed to social-based. When we post on Facebook a new
listing that we may have or a buyers need, we are truly reaching out not just
to the people we know but also the people that they know and it becomes
multiple layers of information being transferred through a lot of different
sources almost immediately. We are able to track down help for roofing issues
or electrical issues or whatever else may come about. We're able to let people
know nationwide if not worldwide about a fabulous new property in the Denver
metro area. These are all vitally important to keep you, the consumer, informed
and updated!
Another new source
that we are using this year is called BombBomb. It is a video email/video blog
that we have started using to truly keep in contact with each and everyone of
our clientele so that we can pass along information that is pertinent as
quickly as possible. We are still learning the ins and outs on that, but are
very excited for the potential that it brings to our real estate experience.
While some people
feel that too much social media can be a detriment, we find that keeping in
touch with people on many levels and not just a business side, but a personal
side as well helps truly let people know that we do care about what is going on
in their lives and it's not just us presenting information to them. I always
want to know what you are up to and what trips you've taken and what issues you
may be running into and how we can help or root for you or just send kind
words. Always looking to start a conversation, social media allows for a
continual flow of ideas that are beneficial across the board.
In 2017 we are
looking to reach out and be in contact with each and everyone of you! If you
know of another great source for staying in contact, we are always looking for
better ways to keep in touch. Let us know, and we will investigate it and use
it as best we can!
