Key Takeaways

✦

Prioritize quality visual content and video (reels, stories) on social media, adapting to platform-specific formats and expectations.

✦

Don't try to be everywhere; pick one or two key social media platforms (e.g., Facebook and LinkedIn) and focus on doing them exceptionally well.

✦

Develop a content strategy by brainstorming diverse ideas from across your company (e.g., construction stages, promotions, agent achievements) to ensure a steady flow of engaging posts.

✦

Leverage LinkedIn as an often-untapped resource for reaching high-net-worth individuals, even for B2C home sales, through thoughtful, targeted posts.

✦

Ensure all social media accounts are accessible by the company owner and provide agencies with necessary access, avoiding reliance on former employees or third parties.

✦

Avoid generic, 'home and garden' content; focus on creating unique, branded, and helpful content that provides value to your audience and differentiates your company.

✦

Actively engage with your audience by responding to comments and questions; social media is a two-way conversation, and neglecting interaction can alienate potential buyers.
