LEAD RESOURCE CRM: The Lead REsource CRM offers our affiliates and agents some of the deepest lead management, incubation and marketing capabilities available in the industry. It provides the affiliate with the capability to decide when and under what conditions leads will be sent to an agent as determined by a comprehensive set of leadrouting rules. Whether the lead is assigned immediately or incubated at the company level, Lead REsource ensures that agents and affiliates will stay informed about their potential clients’ online activity.

The CRM solution is built around the idea that not every client is ready to purchase immediately and by providing the agent with important information - properties a client is saving, where they have set up saved searches, how frequently the customer is logging in, and more the agent can tailor their marketing efforts to match the client’ s readiness to engage with the agent. The system offers a fully customizable marketing tool that allows the agent to provide customers with personalized “Action Plans” that helps the agent stay in constant communication.

If the agent wants to set up a personal phone call with the customer, this is easily accomplished via the system’s calendaring capability and can even be done automatically with an “Action Plan.” Regardless of the agent or company’s methodology for incubating and marketing to prospects and customers, the Lead REsource system has the ability to satisfy everyone’s requirement.

Our Listing Presentation Report will show you exactly how many potential buyers are searching a specific neighborhood for homes similar to theirs.

LISTING ACTIVITY REPORT Further, once a homeowner has listed a home with you - a Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices agent he/she will receive our Listing Activity Report detailing how many times their home has appeared in potential buyers’ search results and how many times their listing has been viewed.

MARKET ACTIVITY REPORT Perhaps a homeowner is not ready to sell, but would like a sense of buyer interest in their neighborhood and in homes like theirs. Regularly, the Market Activity Report will show them just how many people are searching in their neighborhood for a home like theirs. They’ll also gain specific market updates including new listings, price changes and status changes.

Such comprehensive information, combined with the guidance of you, as their Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices agent, gives them unmatched advantages as they list and sell their home.

Social Moments #2 INSTAGRAM A popular photo-sharing app to post and view images on the go.

Did you know? Instagram was created in 2010 as a small project by two San Francisco-based developers.

The name “Instagram” is a combination of “instant camera” and “telegram.”

To begin … Download the app on your mobile device and register using your email or Facebook account. Choose a username, add a default picture, write a description – remember to include your website – and you’re ready to start posting!

Where your photos can go … Be sure to set up your additional social media accounts (Profile > Settings > Share Settings) so you can share photos on other platforms. Instagram allows sharing to Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, Flickr and foursquare.

What you can’t do … Although you will have a website – www.instagram.com/USERNAME – you won’t be able to upload photos from your desktop. Instagram only allows users to upload from their mobile devices.

Best Practices • Follow relevant accounts to appear in their “Explore” tab.

• Tag, tag, tag! The more accounts you tag in your photos, the more likely your photo will be seen by a wide range of Instagram users. Also, there’s a chance the account you tag will “regram” your photo, much like a retweet on Twitter.

• Never upload blurry photos. Especially if you’re using Instagram to post a photo of your listing, make sure the photo is crisp and clear.

• Try to use hashtags in your caption and limit the number of hashtags you use after your description. Hashtags on Instagram are a great way to increase the audience of your post but use them sparingly. Limit yourself to using no more than five hashtags per post.

• Like and comment on others’ photos to increase the exposure of your Instagram account.

• Always ask permission before uploading a photo your client may deem private or personal.

• Remember that Instagram is a public forum, just like a Facebook business page, and photos should be appropriate and professional.

• Be creative. Creativity on Instagram wins!

How to Use Instagram in Your Business • Post behind-the-scenes images of your business.

• Post listings or just-sold homes.

• Post 15-second property tours.

• Engage with local businesses, clients and consumers.

• Add your location to a listing post to send those who view the photo to a map of the home.

• Celebrate holidays, milestones and awards.

Social Moments #3 TWITTER A popular micro-blogging social media platform used to share messages in 140 characters or less.

To begin ... Visit twitter.com/signup to register for an account.

Did you know? Twitter was originally named “Twttr.”

TWITTER TERMS: Tweet: A message sent via Twitter containing 140 characters or less.

Retweet (or RT): A “retweet” is when you copy a given tweet sent by another user and tweet it again on your timeline. You can either do it by copying and pasting the tweet and adding RT before it or else by using the two arrows underneath each tweet, the “retweet button.” This button will send the tweet to your timeline.

Hashtags: You can think of Twitter hashtags as discovery tools that play an incredibly important role in helping users find relevant information that matters to them. Search #realestate and you’ll see tweets that show what users are saying about real estate right now.

Trending Topics: These are the most tweeted-about topics at this very moment. If news breaks while you’re on Twitter, you’ll see the hashtag or topic skyrocket to the top of your trending topics. You can localize your trending topics to reflect the most popular topics being tweeted about in your market.

Direct Messages: Using this Twitter feature, you can directly message another user. Note that the user must follow him or her and you must follow them in order to send a direct message.

Favorites: Think of favorites as the “Like” button on Facebook. The favorite button is the star below each tweet.

A list of all tweets you’ve favorited will appear at the top of your profile.

Follow: You can follow accounts using the Follow button on each user’s profile.

Twitter Lists: Twitter lists are a great way to separate your followers. For instance, you can create a list of your clients (and see only their tweets when you click on this list). Or, you can create a list of real estate news accounts. The possibilities for Twitter lists are endless!

Pinned Tweet: This relatively new feature of Twitter allows you to pin a tweet to the top of your timeline and it will stay there until you pin it or pin another tweet above. Pin a great message about your business and watch engagement on your tweet climb!

Promoted Accounts, Tweets and Trends: Twitter offers several ad products to boost followers and engagement. When you see an account, tweet or trend listed as “promoted,” this means the user paid money to have their content seen.

Mentions: Use the “@” symbol” to mention a user in a tweet.

This user will get a notification that you’ve tweeted about him or her. Users can mention your account by using the same symbol in their tweet.

If your property is currently listed with a broker, this is not intended as a solicitation. Equal Housing Opportunity.

Social Moments #3 TWITTER BEST PRACTICES: Keep your Twitter account fresh by tweeting at least a few times each week.

• Make sure to take advantage of all the personal marketing possibilities within a Twitter profile. Update your default photo with your latest headshot, include a great cover photo and write an engaging bio with information about your business and a link to your website.

• Retweet and respond to tweets to engage other users.

• Use a program like Google URL Shortener or Tiny URL to shorten long links into a few characters so you don’t use all of your character count by posting a long link.

• Follow national and local media publications and real estate reporters.

Many of these accounts will follow you back. Also, reporters and publications tend to ask for pitches or look for sources on Twitter, so be ready with a great story about your business you can share!

• Share articles of interest to your Twitter page by using the share icons above or below most online stories.

• Try not to use too many hashtags in one tweet. They’ll take away from your character count and could annoy readers of your tweet.

• However, do include one, two or even three hashtags to expand the potential reach of your tweet and help interested users discover your content.

• Be sure to check with your clients before mentioning them in a tweet.

• Favorite others’ tweets as a way to show them you liked the information shared.

• Unlike Facebook, Twitter does not have the capability to split your account into a personal profile and a business page. Remember, your Twitter page is a reflection of who you are as a real estate professional.

• Try to limit any automatic feeds tweeting out your listings. Instead, post your listings individually and include a nice, short description and attach a great photo.

• Photos take up about 23 characters in your tweet, so whenever you’re including one be aware that your message will have to be shorter.

• Tweet a link to information about a new listing. Include a description of the property and a photo with each tweet.

• Post your properties in all phases of the transaction; just-sold homes, properties in escrow and just-listed houses, to name a few examples.

• Engage with local businesses, potential consumers and media publications.

• Be creative and show your personality in your tweets. Potential clients will visit your Twitter page to find out more about you beyond your website, so make sure your tweets reflect exactly who you are.

• Make sure your Twitter presence complies with all state and local laws regarding advertising.

Homes for the Holidays

Many sellers feel that they should wait until after the holidays to list their homes. This program educates these clients that there are some advantages to selling your home during the holidays. Because even during the holiday season, serious buyers continue to look for their dream home. Don’t miss out on any listings.

Advantages

Holiday Marketing Considerations

Twinkling with holiday lights, your house will shine bright to eager buyers looking for their perfect home.

Approve all showings of your home (qualified buyers) and work with you on availability (no lock box)

Temperature isn’t the only thing dropping this winter; mortgage rates are near historic lows.

Yard sign, coming soon/or exclusive listing rider (upon request)

Homes are new beginnings for buyers and sellers.

When the clock strikes midnight on New Year’s Eve, sellers will want to start fresh and buyers will want to be all settled into their new home.

Tax benefits are the ultimate holiday gifts for both buyers and sellers who close before the end of the year. (See your tax advisor for more details and the best advice to take advantage of a transaction that takes place before Dec. 31.)

No open house, unless requested No print advertising Address of home will be withheld from online marketing

Serious buyers are out. Your home won’t be subject to casual window shoppers, (they’re too busy at the mall or on their computer searching for holiday gifts).

Buyers have extra time off from work, which means more hours in their day to search for a home.

You can increase your relocation business. January is typically the month when employees are transferred to new positions. To capture these buyers, your home must be on the market now because they often can’t wait until spring.

Special ecards and a Homes for the Holidays flyer have been created in the Marketing REsource to promote this program. You can send the ecards over the next couple of weeks. You can distribute the flyer at Open House and Holiday parties – use it as a door hanger. Win these listings now to start your new year off right.

Print this page Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Military REsource: Always On Duty

In appreciation for all they do to protect our freedoms, Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices has designed a program to market specifically to our military families and individuals. It is called Always on Duty. If you market in an area with a large population of military (and government employees), we hope you will use this program to help our service men and women buy and sell their homes.

Many times a military family is relocated to a new area of the United States and then the active service person is deployed. What a great feeling to know that they have not left their family with a new home that may “have issues.”

To assure these families that they are buying homes that meet their needs, we provide peace of mind by requiring all properties marketed with the Always on Duty program carry three assurances: 1. Home is located within 25 miles of an active military installation 2. Home is priced within 5% of Fair Market Value* as determined by a local Comparative Market Analysis 3. Home carries a 1­year home warranty

A broker can enhance this program with additional assurances from his company as s/he deems appropriate.

Always on Duty also allows you to attract buyers and sellers as Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices will facilitate a cash rebate**. Visit http://hc.hsfaffiliates.com/military for more information.

Marketing materials for this program are available in the Marketing REsource area on REsource Center. Just search for 'military' to find eCards, postcards, web banners, ads, flyers, PowerPoint template, doorhangers and an overview brochure of all the marketing pieces. All pieces are editable, affiliate­branded and customizable.

Files for large posters, and banners are also in the Marketing REsource for downloading to take to a local copy/print shop.

Billboard artwork is provided for your local Out­of­Home provider.

XpressDocs will have letterhead, folders and notecards that complement the Always on Duty marketing materials.

Specs for the Always on Duty sign rider have been provided to the Berkshire Hathaway HomeService preferred sign companies.

Have Questions? / Need help setting up your program?

Contact Home Connections at 866­224­8895 or the Affiliate Assistance Hotline. *A Comparative Market Analysis is based on comparable property sales but does not constitute an appraisal. The actual fair market value of any property is the price agreed on by a willing buyer and a willing seller.

** Cash rebates and/or commission discounts are subject to individual state law. Go to http://hc.hsfaffiliates.com/military to review full terms and conditions.
