Marketing and Sales Services for Home Sellers
Marketing Your Houston Home for Sale
Effectively marketing a property requires timely, expertly honed marketing communications campaigns that maximize exposure until the property sells. During the first few weeks, intense business-to-business and direct marketing promotions to both the real estate community and buying public are initiated—enhanced with “Just Listed” announcements and “Open House” listings.
Strategic advertising buys and placements online and in print publications such as the Houston Chronicle, Houston Business Journal and PaperCity are then added to the marketing mix to create another layer to the campaign.
When feasible, public relations components are also incorporated. The goal is to define an overall marketing communications campaign that drives buyer inquiries, activity and, subsequently, sales; this, in turn, dictates specific media outlets and scheduling.
