Facts On Passive And Active Mortgage Realtor Marketing
By Vic Hurlstorm | July 20, 2010
“Strategies are very important in todays world especially in the real estate industry. When competition is high, there is all the more a need for one to use the best proven techniques while vying for sales. The market may seem to have a difficulty, it will continue to exist and everything will be in the hands of those who play an important role. It is the survival of the fittest. Brokers are, of course, a significant portion of this whole dynamo that makes the industry survive. To have an edge over others, they need to think of effective ways. And getting ahead means using the marketing techniques that can make all the difference.
In terms of mortgage marketing, a broker can only be two things – active or passive. There is, of course, a great disparity between what each of these two can do individually and as one. Promoting one’s services by means of a generalized scheme is called passive marketing. This kind of technique does not include direct pursuance of potential clients. An example is an ad in the paper or a website. On the other hand, active or direct marketing involves smart prospecting, whether the campaign is to be launched online or off. Call capture systems, email marketing and other specially designed software are a few techniques that can be included in active marketing. This kind of marketing tends to be more beneficial on its own because a realtor’s efforts are targeted and, thus, have greater chances of success than any passive approach. In an online active marketing, SEO can be employed.
Active or direct marketing can stand on its own but it is more effective if its combined with passive technique. Direct marketing can be the final push for people to positively respond to the subliminal credibility-building effects of passive marketing. Consistent visibility in the market creates for the advertiser a subconscious level of awareness of the realtor’s credibility among potential clients. When direct marketing techniques are employed, there is a greater chance of potential buyers to actively seek out this realtor.
A disadvantage of passive marketing is its huge cost which is just another reason why more real estate sellers have been proactive in pursuing probable clients. Despite the fact that the one-time reach of a newspaper ad can cover more than what a simple targeted email campaign can, statistics will prove that an email campaign that thrives on smart prospecting is still the best way to get the best out of mortgage realtor marketing. “
If you’re trying to build your credibility in the real estate market, it is best to study all your options. Realtor marketing is not a game that anyone can play without a viable lead generator or without employing call capture systems
