The majority of our daily lives is not run through ink and paper, but through emails and online news tickers. There is just no reason to spend good money on a stack of different newspapers, when one can find everything they need to by way of a simple web search. In fact, thanks to modern online revolutions, one is able to get the opinions from multiple sites and multiple publications directly delivered to their reading tablets, or iPads. There is little reason to be weighted down by stacks of books and magazines. However, this method does have a particular down side, and that is its lack of character. Some time ago, people used to spend time delivering telegrams or hand writing personal letters. Nowadays, we just send out texts and emails, not letters. However, simply looking at the loss of character in a business position, what would be so wrong about getting back to the mailbox? In fact, doesn't it sound like a solid idea to put the character back into advertising with real estate postcards ?
For most people, when they take a vacation, they are looking to not only get away from their everyday life, but to attract people to the magical sentiment they feel when they leave home. When one is not texting pictures of where they are, one is often sending out postcards to get the point across: picturesque vacation spots. Well, not everyone can simply travel around, but what some can do is see a different side of where they live. With real estate postcards, one might be able to deliver a vacation dream to someone in their home town.
For starters, there are plenty of reasons why postcards are the way to go.
First, they are something one has to receive. They are not just another junk email that one can delete without opening. They come already open.
Moving on, the use of a postcard illustrates a place that seems out of reach, but is not in this case. It can give the base facts you could not find online.
Thirdly, postcards can be made up as invitations to actual open houses.
Fourth, the price of a postcard, while more than an email, is less than anything else.
After everything is said and done, one must keep in mind that real estate postcards, while a novel idea, are more important in what they represent, and that is a return to customer care. The use of the internet and online selling and advertising has surely allowed for a greater access and a greater convenience, but it has torn apart the part of a business so intent on relationship building. If one really wants to emerge inside an economic crisis, they must remember to be a friend first, and a profiteer second. This does not mean sacrifice your principles, but use friendliness to build your business. After all, in real estate, you need to sell houses to really turn a good profit, and to sell houses you are going to need people to fill them.
