OLD MEDIA + NEW MEDIA For 74% of Advertisers, It's a Package Deal

Use Digital & Traditional Media Together 74%

Use Traditional Media Only 22%

Use Digital Media Only 3%

Borrell's Take

Use Another Method 1%

Only 3% of 3,039 local advertisers surveyed in the past 3 months said they're buying only digital media. The market is coalescing around digital and traditional media packages– and having a point person to manage it.

LOCAL SATURATION

PRINT DISTRIBUTION STRATEGY

Consumers today are bombarded with advertising that is forced upon them, whether they choose to receive it or not – on radio and television, in print, on billboards and outdoor signs, in their mailboxes, and especially online. At The Real Estate Book, we believe in a different approach. Every copy of our magazine is picked up VOLUNTARILY by somebody interested in real estate and homes for sale in their local area. In the digital world, this is the equivalent of a person OPTING IN to receive email or online marketing. And it drives up the ROI on advertising investment exponentially. In order to provide sufficient opportunities for consumers to pick up our magazines in their local area, we SATURATE the retail landscape with our racks and distribution outlets. You will find The Real Estate Book in grocery stores, banks, pharmacies, restaurants, coffee shops, deli’s, community centres, hospitals, salons & spas, car dealerships … you see us everywhere! In addition, where it is considered necessary or desirable to SUPPLEMENT our free distribution, we deliver a portion of our press run directly to the home, either using Canada Post or other third party door-to-door delivery companies.


NATIONAL

SOCIAL MEDIA FOOTPRINT

Our social media strategy revolves around real-time engagement with both agents and consumers. Our content is informative and timely and is meant to drive conversations about the real estate industry. It is also intended to provide insider information for consumers navigating their home buying journey.

ENGAGED AUDIENCE METRICS Twitter 74,900+ Followers Facebook 8,500+ Followers Instagram 300+ (New Channel!) LinkedIn 500+ (New Channel!)

POSTING FREQUENCIES Daily activity on social media during peak times and weekly blog posts on real estate topics of interest. Facebook drove 3.16 million website visits in 2017. 34% of Facebook followers are between the ages of 34 & 54.
