agents of change: real estate marketing and branding

Slowly but surely the predominant online classified portal, Craigslist.org, has become an important part of many agent’s marketing plans. According to the site, it is home to local classifieds for over 567 cities and more than 50 countries worldwide. The site produces over 40 million users per month and the number of people joining the Craigslist craze just keeps growing.

Realtors® can particularly benefit from Craigslist because they are able to reach such a broad and diverse audience with just a few clicks of the mouse. Listing homes for sale or even featuring ‘wanted’ ads for your buyers makes Craigslist a must-have resource for any Realtor® who wants to be competitive in today’s marketplace.

Another resource that compliments the many features of Craigslist while adding a more colorful and descriptive posting is vFlyer.com. vFlyer is an online source where people can create wide-ranging flyers selling everything from real estate to services. vFlyer is truly an answer to everyone’s prayers who wanted to jazz up their Craigslist listing. With vFlyer, you are able to post your listing in one of their many attractive templates, brand yourself with full contact information and add up to 15 photos for display instead of the ordinary four as supported by Craigslist.

What’s better is that vFlyer automatically distributes your published flyers to Zillow, Trulia, Google Base, Oodle, Backpage, Lycos, Vast, Hotpads, Olx, Geebo, Yahoo! and DotHome. If your Broker does not already feed to these sites, vFlyer is a must-have for your online marketing strategies.

If you choose to upgrade to the paid package through vFlyer, you can use premium templates that brand the most reputable brokerages in the industry - plus you enjoy added features like the capability of embedding video into your flyer… a bonus for Prudential Connecticut Realty agents who utilize the company’s Home Suite technology.

Powered with the prominence of Craigslist and the great features of vFlyer - Realtors® are able to distribute their listings to a broad range of web sites and in a customized, agent centric display.
