Social Media for Business Survival in 2010 for the West Palm Beach & Miami Area
Buyers and sellers are gun shy. They are unsure of this market and what it holds for them. They don’t know if it’s a good time to buy. They are wary of what they’re hearing on the news about less than ethical behavior in the mortgage industry. Many sellers are still in denial holding on to prices that are not reflective of the current market. How do you not only stand out from the pack, but also gain their confidence and trust, so that they will pick you and trust your advice?
You do it by branding yourself with a unique story presented in a quality format. That’s how you stand out, get noticed and get called. It’s how you get consumers to connect with you and WANT to do business with you. So if you’re pondering what you should write in your bio or profile, make sure you tell your unique emotional story, don’t copy anyone,
When it comes to Your Bio or Profile, Make Sure You Go for the Gold!
Your personal story can be a powerful thing.
Put Your Best Foot Forward & Write Something Unique. For many agents, a bio is “how many years they’ve been in the business,” or “what their service philosophy is,” or the “infamous real estate designations.” That is NOT your bio. You need to tell Your Story. That’s how you differentiate yourself. Your unique set of life experiences that forged your character that are different from all others’ life experiences. Learning about these unique stories forms an emotional connection with the readers.
Your unique story will make prospects notice you, care about you and connect with you. It will make them feel comfortable picking up the phone and dialing your number instead of one of the agents from the office across the street.
