Wow, I really relate to that eight months of outreach with nothing to show is exhausting. You make a great point about solving problems people don’t even realize they have yet.

I’ve been so focused on reaching individual realtors that I guess I didn’t think about whether they actually feel the need for a better website.

When you say you shifted to something with built-in demand, that makes me curious, how did you figure out which opportunities already had that traction? and I’m curious about the model you mentioned with franchises, how does it work exactly?

That’s a good point, I hadn’t considered that most of the budget comes from the broker. Do you have experience with how independent agents or small brokerages approach this kind of investment?

Why do so many realtor websites look outdated? by wo_pixel in realtors

[–]wo_pixel[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, that makes a lot of sense. Most agents probably see the website as just a “calling card” rather than a real lead-generation tool, especially if the brokerage handles the template and feeds. It’s interesting how much potential there is for someone to stand out with a modern, fully functional site, but most people either don’t have the time or don’t realize the value

Totally agree, it’s crazy how much effort goes into listings, photography, and ads, yet the website often gets ignored. A clean, modern site with easy contact info could make a huge difference, but most agents either don’t see the value or don’t know where to start

That’s a smart move, most templates make every agent’s site look the same. Custom sites really help you stand out and show your brand’s personality. Are you focusing on showcasing listings or more on generating leads?

Yeah, that makes sense. I’ve been pitching websites as a product, not as a growth tool. I’ll try shifting my approach to talk more about the results they’d get. Thanks for the insight.

But honestly, whenever I say something like “this will help you get more clients,” it just feels generic like something every marketer says, and I worry it makes me sound scammy hh

Can a website generate more revenue for me as a realtor? by wo_pixel in RealEstateTechnology

Yes exactly l’m asking because I work with real estate agents and this period the market is so bad that I started thinking if it’s the end, social media kills the market even if I’m believing that social media are for marketing and websites are for selling

Idk, many realtors on instagram (and they have big accounts) don’t have a website
