Letters Leads Website Content Expired Listing System Real Estate Business Letter
Every real estate business letter you send to prospects, or customers, should have a clear purpose. Before sitting down to write one make sure you are clear about the product or service you are offering, the price, any bonus offers, whether there is a time limit, etc. A good business letter provides all of this and more. Think from the point of view of the customer. What will make them interested in your listings and services? Your sales letters should not be about you or your company. You will not make sales by telling customers about the latest events in your office, or the history of your company's expansion. Your letter should always be about the customer, their problems, and how you can solve them. It should be razor sharp focused, direct and to the point. Everything else is a potential distraction that could negate the effectiveness of your campaigns.Headlines are the most important part of a real estate business letter. Try to come up with at least twenty different headlines and select the best one. Generally headlines should be longer than 3 or 4 words, but less than 17 words. Take a look at newspaper headlines and other sales headlines for inspiration. I routinely read sunday ads for ideas for my letters, brochures, flyers and email campaigns. Of course, your headlines must be believable. Don't exaggerate to get attention. If it cannot be believed readers will not bother to read further. When you first sit down to write the main body of the letter do not edit it as you write. Just write what you think is the main, important message and do not stop to correct spelling mistakes, or grammatical errors. If necessary stare determinedly at the keyboard as you write, or better still turn the monitor off on your PC. If you continually stop to make corrections the words will not flow and the message may become confused. Once your first draft is complete then go through it and make corrections. Avoid long sentences in your real estate business letter. You want to make it as easy to read as possible. Break the letter up with subheadings that refer to the contents of the next section. Your subheadings should give enough information for someone skimming down the page to understand the content of your letter.. Summarily, once you feel your letter is complete put it aside for a while before reading through it again. You may spot mistakes or areas of confusion. If you cannot leave it for a period of time give it to someone to read. Ask them to skim through it to see if they get the main points of the message. If they do they can then read each sentence and give you their impression of the letter.Below are a couple of sample real estate business letters Sample Real Estate Business Letter #1 Sample Real Estate Business Letter #2
