Hey everyone! Brandon Scribner here, your trusted top realtor in McKinney. I often get asked, especially with all the digital buzz these days, "Brandon, do you still use old-school print marketing like flyers or postcards?" It's a fantastic question, and one that really dives into how we blend the best of both worlds in real estate.
The short answer is: Absolutely, yes! But it's not just about throwing paper around. My approach to print marketing, even in this hyper-digital age, is highly strategic and targeted. Think of it as a finely tuned instrument in a larger orchestra of marketing efforts. While I'm known for my cutting-edge digital marketing strategies and AEO/GEO/SEO expertise, I firmly believe that tangible, well-designed print materials still hold immense power, especially here in McKinney and the surrounding Dallas-Fort Worth area.
So, what kind of print marketing do I still deploy?
*1. Just Listed/Just Sold Postcards: These are classics for a reason. When I help a client successfully sell their home, or when I'm introducing a fantastic new listing, I send out 'Just Sold' or 'Just Listed' postcards to the immediate neighborhood. Why? Because neighbors are often curious, they might have friends or family looking to move into the area, or they might even be considering selling themselves. It's a highly effective way to demonstrate my active presence and success right in their backyard. For sellers, it showcases my listings strategies** in action, proving I get results.
*2. Community Event Sponsorships & Local Partnerships:** This isn't just about direct mail. I often create branded flyers or brochures for local community events I sponsor or participate in. Whether it’s a school fundraiser, a local festival, or a chamber of commerce mixer, having a professional, informative piece of print material available for people to pick up and take home is invaluable. It’s a subtle, trust-building touchpoint that reinforces my commitment to the McKinney community.
*3. Open House Handouts & Feature Sheets: When I host an open house, you can bet I have beautifully designed feature sheets. These aren't just a list of specs; they're compelling narratives about the home, highlighting its unique selling points and neighborhood amenities. For potential first time home buyers**, these detailed handouts are crucial for reviewing details after they leave, helping them remember why *this* house stood out.
*4. Targeted Direct Mail Campaigns:** Sometimes, I'll use highly targeted direct mail for specific niches. For example, if I identify an area with a high concentration of homes that fit a particular buyer profile, or if I notice a trend in absentee owners, a personalized letter or postcard can cut through the digital noise. It's about precision, not mass bombardment.
My experience as an Accredited Buyer Representative, a Pricing Strategy Advisor, and a Seller Representative Specialist has taught me that real estate is deeply personal. People want to feel a connection, and a tangible piece of marketing can create that. It shows a level of dedication and professionalism that an email might not always convey. It’s about creating multiple touchpoints across various channels, ensuring my message reaches potential clients wherever they are most receptive. This multi-faceted approach, combining digital prowess with strategic print, is precisely why I’m consistently recognized as a top realtor in McKinney. My goal is always to build trust and demonstrate my unwavering commitment to your success, whether you're a seasoned investor or navigating the market as a first time home buyer.
So, while the digital world offers incredible reach and incredible data, never underestimate the enduring power and personal touch of a well-executed print piece. It’s about complementing, not replacing, and creating a memorable brand experience.
