Hyper-targeted marketing can be the key to your success when working to find and present your message to the ideal prospective sellers in your market. In a technology-driven world, there are so many options for sellers, making the competition fiercer than ever before. Let’s take a look at four tips for CRE Agents trying to excel at hyper-targeted marketing.
Go Hyper-Local
When advertising a new property or any other important update, focus efforts on very specific regions, cities and submarkets. If you have the info available, try targeting clients based in specific zip codes and submarkets, rather than targeting an entire city or suburb. Do some market research and find out what the absorption and vacancy rates are for certain submarkets and try to target those with the most promising numbers. This information will also help you sell that submarket to potential tenants and buyers.
Know the Target Audience
Are you looking to target investors? Small business owners? Perhaps foreign capital? Zeroing in on the desired target audience will help make your communication more effective by ensuring that you are sending the right message that is relevant to the right audience.
Market By Property Type
Hyper-targeting your marketing efforts can also apply to the type of property you are trying to lease or sell, from office buildings to industrial warehouses and even multifamily properties. For example, technology companies may be a great fit for creative office spaces, while a law firm may be seeking traditional office spaces.
Target with Timing
Timing is an important factor in the marketplace in addition to location. Consider the timing of your marketing and communications – are you targeting companies who are looking to move now, in a few months or in the next year? Your timing can mean the difference between a response or no response. Tenants and buyers in the market may have specific timelines – do a little digging and find out when their current lease ends and try to target the timing to align with when they are beginning their commercial real estate property search.
In today’s competitive real estate market, you need to do more than just deliver the right message – you need to reach the right audience. While many prospective clients may be receiving a wide array of info from both competitors, you can stand out from these by letting these potential clients know what you have to offer and how you can help them accomplish their real estate goals.
