Create Winter-Themed Digital Materials<\/h3>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In the marketing world, a common secret we use as experts is called a \u201clead magnet.\u201d This is a freebie of some sort that you can give out digitally in exchange for contact information (usually a name and email address).<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>This simple concept is an amazingly powerful tool to grow your contact list so you can continually market to leads via email. This process \u201cwarms up\u201d your leads and helps them to get to know you, so when they are in the market to buy or sell a home, they think of you.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>People work with people that they know, like, and trust, winter lead magnets open the door for that connection to begin! Some ideas include:<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<ul>\n<li>Holiday Home Buyer Guide (this is our lead magnet we\u2019ve designed for <a href=\"https:\/\/restatesocial.com\/become-a-member\/\" data-ms-handler-added=\"true\">Restate Social members<\/a> to use this month!)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<ul>\n<li>Staging Guide<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<ul>\n<li>FSBO Guide<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<ul>\n<li>Winter Home Maintenance Checklist<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<ul>\n<li>Winter Moving Checklist<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<ul>\n<li>Guide to the best locations to take family holiday pictures<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<ul>\n<li>Free consultation<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Anything can be a lead magnet!

Offer Winter Open House Attendance Incentives<\/h3>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Open houses in the winter can be challenging to get traffic to because buyers are busy with the holidays and reluctant to leave their homes in the cold, dreary weather. To combat this, offer open house incentives to encourage potential buyers to get out the door and into your listing.
