SOCIAL + NETWORK GET DISCOVERED

Visual+Social+Media (VSM) Social media is hugely pervasive and growing daily, it can propel your property marketing and brand in exciting ways. The Campaigntrack Visual Social Media (VSM) team has created a unique product range that is almost effortless on your part, at the same time it’s a powerful and effective way to market your properties and your brand. We see it as an essential component in our Advanced Internet Marketing ecosystem. Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and other platforms connect your listings with people in the community. Our job is to make those connections more appealing, relevant and memorable. To do this your content needs to be regular, reliable and impressive. Our Qantium enabled expert targeting capabilities means your listings and brand connect with more relevance. In forming our VSM team, we brought together experts from a range of disciplines to create more effective engagement. Many months were spent researching and developing technologies, methods and industry know-how so that we could create content, posts and ads that not only look better, but deliver better results. Effective social media marketing is harder than it looks, which is why our solution is so compelling. We make you look like the consummate professional and deliver significant value for money. When you’re ready to embrace social media as a marketing channel – we’d love to connect.



GOOGLE + SEARCH YOU’RE THE ANSWER TO MY QUESTION

Google + Advertising One of the world’s biggest companies is ubiquitous for a reason: its products work beautifully. Google is where the world starts searching for information - and so it’s hardly surprisingly buyers and sellers use it everywhere for real estate. A significant percentage of property searches start in Google and mobile search is even more pervasive. Advertising on Google is extremely effective – but until now, nobody had developed an effective way to market individual properties, selling agents and agencies using this form of advertising. Our solution includes both search advertising as well as highly visual display ads - placing your brand, your listings & agents in front of users as they surf the net. Our search ads work better and cover more search terms - meaning you’re more likely to be found. Campaigntrack has always led the way in property marketing - and likely for this reason we were appointed by Google as a Premier Partner specialising in real estate. This strategic partnership has given us the inside track on the most exciting developments and expert training – so we can deliver even more advantageous results. The cornerstone of our Advanced Internet Marketing ecosystem, Google advertising is not only effective, it helps free you from an overt dependence on traditional property portals for your online presence. Google search engine marketing, display and retargeted advertising elevate your brand exposure – which means you can market specific properties to the right audience. Your brand and your listings will be found where people look for information, and Campaigntrack makes it effortless. Sounds like the future... and it’s here now.


H O M E + PAG E OPEN ALL HOURS

Our website design has inbuilt SEO benefits for your brand, as well as technology that enables retargeted advertising across Google and Facebook. Links to your agent and agency websites allow you to extend user engagement and build your all-important database.

E + MAIL C O N N E C T + C O M M U N I C AT E

ActivePipe electrifies email Email is passé - right? If you said ‘yes’ then you’d be wrong. Email is powerful and highly engaging when done right. Doing it right is the hard part. Every agency has an email platform, some have multiple. Staff often wrestle with the time, expertise and deadlines required to get regular content broadcasts out. Achieving consistency, frequency, brand alignment and ‘content relevance’ can be extremely difficult. Sending relevant emails that have high open rates is critical. Campaigntrack has had an Electronic Direct Mail (EDM) road-map for some time, and when we came across ActivePipe’s impressive product, we decided to partner rather than build. Simply put, ActivePipe is the best EDM platform for real estate – bar none. Let’s talk engagement and trackability; ActivePipe emails have higher open rates and collect more information, which will enrich your database. Their ‘Auto’ product provides significant long-term engagement with your customer base and automates appropriate response and engagement throughout the customer journey. Buyers, sellers and lookers alike – short and long term – all have a place in the ActivePipe ecosystem. Campaigntrack‘s strategic partnership with ActivePipe facilitates a premium and expert turn-key solution with deep integration into our VSM (Visual Social Media) and Google advertising products. The ROI is a no brainer... Together the solution is revolutionary. Do we have your @ttention yet?


P O R TA L + P U S H A BETTER MOUSETRAP

Po r tal Push with a twist Pushing content to traditional property portals is an essential component of every marketing campaign. As a type of online ad it makes sense to manage create and deploy these ads from the same place you manage your other property marketing. When we created our Portal Pushing solution we wanted to do it better than anyone else. We wanted to make it easier of course, and we wanted our solution to improve your whole marketing campaign performance. Of course Campaigntrack is integrated with every major real estate portal in Australia and New Zealand. All your content from OFIs to images, property details, prices, dates and more... flow automatically to your portal advertising, just as they would any other marketing product. Conveniently, you can view the status and links to all your portals in one location within the Campaigntrack system. Combine this with our superior customer support and that is one big tick in the peace-of-mind box. But we didn’t just stop there. Our technology makes your listings work harder too. Take ActiveContent for example, this handy feature rotates your pre-selected hero shots daily, that way your portal listings have more chance of engaging and counteracting ‘ad fade’ (it’s a thing.. Google it!). Our ActiveSchedule technology means you can set and forget timed campaigns so your own website listing, Social Media, Google, EDM and other direct marketing efforts can have a chance to reach buyers before traditional portals. Your digital marketing journey is about to get interesting, trust in Campaigntrack to seamlessly deliver all your requirements now and in the future.

WORD + DIMENSION READ BETWEEN THE LINES

Copywriting On brand and on point, property copy must evoke emotion in the buyer and impart the integral details. Our talented scribes know it’s as much about what you leave out as what you put in. We offer both on-site and off-site copywriting options for property, agents and agencies. Consummate professionals, Campaigntrack’s copywriting team will represent you and the property in the best possible light.

Floorplans Buyers commonly rate the floorplan as the most useful advertising element, after photography. Whilst floorplans are an established product, Campaigntrack streamlines the process with an efficient workflow and outstanding on-site staff support and service. This detailed marketing tool is an essential campaign ingredient that requires exemplary attention to detail. Our floorplanners use cutting­-edge measurement technology, are highly trained and benefit from an architectural understanding.




CHINA + CONNECT REACH OUT

AC Prop er ty. co m .au & China help desk solution Every vendor, agent and principal knows how important the Chinese-speaking market is today. Campaigntrack has entered into a unique partnership with Australia’s most popular Chinese language property portal – to connect properties with buyers who prefer to search in their own language. Together, we have crafted a package that allows agents to extend their reach into this market, without the prerequisite language skills: charged at a highly affordable per-property rate, or on a supply contract for volume clients. Our solution includes copy translation, a property listing on the high-traffic ACProperty.com.au portal, your own agency page with current listings and a Chinese-speaking enquiry line and email. These enquiry channels are accessible to Chinese-speaking Australian and New Zealand residents, as well as residents of mainland China. There is also an option to have a dedicated phone number for your agency. Enquiries to the help desk are translated and forwarded to your team for response, and responses are in turn sent back translated to the enquirer. Any questions that can be answered upfront are done so by the help desk. For convenience, an emailable PDF and optional printed versions of your property’s brochure in Chinese are included in this service. A turn-key solution that is immediately scalable, this product places your listings, agents and agency in the bestpractice category for the Chinese-speaking market. Ready to reach out? We’d love to talk... in Chinese.

Translation of your brand into the many shapes, sizes and mediums that comprise the modern marketing landscape – is a skill that underpins our success as brand custodian for many successful agencies. We can work with you to create, amplify, protect and reboot your brand. Whether that be in conjunction with your chosen design agency, an agency we recommend or via our design services directly – it’s up to you.

LOCAL + PRESS LAWS OF AT T R A C T I O N

Newspaper Advertising You can’t ignore the stats, CoreLogic RP Data tells us that by combining traditional print advertising with online advertising, you will achieve a higher sale price on average.Further to this, News Corp research found up to 87 per cent of people interviewed nominated their local real estate section as the most trusted source of information, and 80 per cent of buyers take action based on their local paper. Print advertising, along with social media and Google advertising, presents an opportunity to engage passive buyers – something traditional property portals can’t do effectively. Our online design technology, composite and page planning combined with booking technology come standard with the Campaigntrack platform. By managing all your marketing elements in one place you can reap the productivity and ‘brand consistency’ benefits. Incorporating print advertising asserts your brand’s prestige and elevates a property’s status. Nothing engages passive buyers like a stunning, full­-colour layout that propels a property’s lifestyle story and highlights an agency’s unique messaging.

C a mp a i gnAdvance for Vendors A revolutionary new product that gives vendors the power to maximise their property campaign without upfront financial burden. After decades in real estate we know how crucial vendor paid advertising (VPA) is to the final sale price. Vendors can take full advantage of your and our marketing capabilities, and optimise their return on investment, while we manage the funds in the interim. The pressure on you to obtain upfront VPA is removed entirely. Effectively marketing a property can be costly, but with CampaignAdvance your vendors can relax – payment is not due until after settlement or within 120 days from agreement.
