We’ve been going back to basics by selling homes the old fashioned way, hard work. Creative sign campaigns and some print advertising are bring scores of people through our open houses.
We have using some old fashioned flyers and some drop cards displayed in coffee shops, gas stations, and grocery stores to advertise our open houses a few days before the open. I check on them often and have noticed the flyer tabs have been ripped off and cards are being pulled, having me replace them.
We also have made some basic signs with different messages on them. We usually put out between 25 -50 signs to almost create a spectacle. These signs are placed to create a traffic funnel to the open house. The results have been outstanding. We have been averaging between 16-40 people per open house. But that’s not the good part, the good part is that we have been finding the buyers for these properties.
We have also been using some high tech methods like internet advertising, MLS, text messages, traffic reports, blogging, tweeting, and lots of other social networks, but those methods alone have not been driving the traffic we create for our sellers at their open houses.
