Agent Amnesia – Why Clients Forget Their Real Estate Heroes

Agent Amnesia – Why Clients Forget Their Real Estate Heroes – Did you know that 90% of buyers intend to use the same real estate agent for future transactions? And 75% of sellers plan to do the same. Why? Buyers are satisfied after buying a home, but sellers, though content, might feel slightly less due to commission deductions.

Surprisingly, only 14% of buyers and sellers end up working with the same agent again. The reason? They often forget whom they previously worked with despite agents investing significant time and effort in them before and during transactions.

(WOW!! How much would that have increased your business??)

One of the most common complaints about REALTORS(R) is the lack of post-closing communication from agents. This is a missed opportunity, as maintaining connections with past clients helps generate organic referrals and builds a strong reputation and trust in the real estate community. While agents often have good intentions, the demands of securing new clients and closing deals can overshadow this crucial aspect of their business.

Could your commission check be the last communication you have with your clients?

By leveraging my expertise, you can transform this crucial area into a competitive advantage, positioning yourself as the top agent in your area through consistent and meaningful connections.

Here are a few areas I can help:

Organize and update your database, ensuring you’re not paying for inactive or outdated contacts.
Establish a personalized marketing calendar, and I’ll keep you in continual contact through consistent emails, calls, and postcards.
My specialty lies in crafting monthly newsletters that are not just informative, but also deeply personalized to your brand and your clients’ needs. This unique blend of local insights, real estate market updates, and engaging content will set you apart from agents relying on generic content.
Develop nurturing email sequences tailored for buyers and sellers, providing valuable tips on navigating the home buying, selling, and homeownership journey.
Assist in managing your social media and suggesting content ideas.
Provide website content and blog articles for comprehensive online engagement.

Together, we can implement strategies to ensure your clients remember you long after the deal is closed. This will foster lasting relationships and, most importantly, generate organic referrals, solidifying your position as a trusted and successful agent.

As a copywriter and designer with a real estate license in Iowa and a proud member of the REALTORS® Association, I offer a unique blend of creativity and industry expertise. This combination allows me to bring a fresh perspective to real estate marketing, ensuring your strategies are both innovative and effective. My commitment to staying current with my license is evident in my regular attendance of courses like the recent Ethics class, which I found particularly enlightening.
