How a Real Estate Direct Mail Postcards software gets (and keep) MORE business referrals.

Staying top of mind is vital in business. Especially in these days of online activity. The use of real estate direct mail postcards is popular, but I think a lot of the agents are doing it incorrectly.

This is just my opinion.

Just mailing out a postcard, is not enough. There needs to be a series of mailings, and they can NOT be “salesy” or they will just be thrown in the trash.

Use fun graphics and be entertaining.

Also, doing these mailings consistently is also vital. However it can be time consuming, unless you know how to leverage automation.

I have a software called MailBoxPower, that I use a lot. I call it my Magic Marketing Tool, because of the features for purchasing super targeted lists, and the automation and print merge functions.

I also use this Platform and the United States Postal Service to send invitations for my Minnesota event planners expo coming in March.

If you are local to the Twin Cities, and want to learn more about Event Marketing, you can register to attend this event at MinnesotaEventExpo.com

As usual, if you have any questions, ideas or suggestions please feel free to contact me.

Your search for Minnesota Vikings Star Tribune will give you the winning team

When you do a search for Minnesota Vikings Star Tribune and the Pioneer Press comes up, you know you’re on the wrong search engine.

But at least you found what you were looking for. You found the Minneapolis newspaper that has a opinion about the Minnesota Vikings.

No let’s get down to the reason that you are searching for the Minnesota Vikings and the Star Tribune newspaper.

You are either looking for the next upcoming game event are you are looking to find out who won the last game.

If you are looking for the next upcoming game, you must not be a serious fan. In my opinion, a serious Viking fan would know these things almost by heart.

The Pioneer press has got both Minneapolis and St. Paul covered because the name Twin Cities is in their website domain.

I am NOT a Network Marketing Pro like Eric

I am not even going to pretend to be a network marketing pro because I have a love-hate relationship with MLM.

What I love about the multi level marketing also called network marketing industry is the community of people seem to be very excited, passionate and have a positive Mindset.

What I hate about multi level marketing or network marketing is the pretentious attitude of success. The business model is usually flawed. There is not enough margin to make money on the product. And the majority of the organizations are focused on recruiting, recruiting, recruiting.

Ironically, the same thing that makes MLM work, is the same thing that makes it not work. And that is the multiple levels.

As soon as an organization gets past the second level, it begins to fall apart.

For this reason, I prefer the Affiliate Marketing Model where the focus is on the product, and once in a while you might recruit someone into the promotion of the product.

From what I have seen in comparison of affiliate marketing versus network marketing, as with affiliate marketing the passion is about the product, whereas multi level marketing and network marketing, the passion is about the money, money, money.

Also, in network marketing, it seems like there is never ending training and this is what keeps people in. They are constantly learning how to recruit. Recruit, recruit, recruit. The products are often times overpriced.

By the way, this is my personal opinion. I could be wrong, but I’ve never had much success myself with network marketing.

Online Traffic Issue

The biggest issue for getting traffic online is saturation and suppression.

There’s too much noise online, so the probability of getting the multiple exposures that are necessary to build the relationship are rare.

There is also the censoring of content that might have a certain word that is forbidden by the platform so the content is never seen by a human.

I’ve been stepping off the internet using Direct Mail Postcards sent to my prospective clients with a message and QR code that by passes the censorship control of the online social media platforms.

Its only $.37 per postcard, and a postcard last a lot longer than an email or a post on social media.
