We love beautiful real estate SOLD signs that show off our professionalism and sense of style. But we also need them to drive traffic and boost our marketing efforts. Real estate SOLD signs are an easy and effective way to do that.
How do you get more referral business with SOLD signs, you ask? Simple. Have your buyers pose holding your custom sign. Then post those pics on social media, your website, on postcards for your farming, and even send them out to your email list. You can use that one closing to generate enough referral business to keep you working for the next several months.
Social proof goes a long way to ease your potential clients’ reservations. So, show your clients smiling and excited with your sign. The best part is you can do it with buyers and sellers. Show up on closing day with your sign and simply ask them to flash those smiles in a quick picture to mark the occasion to bump your social proof score on social media.
