found right on the home page of Facebook and is front of you almost every day.

see trending:

2. Click the x to the right of the topic.

3. Select the reason you're hiding that topic.

HASHTAGS

Hashtags are valuable because they:

your network.

• Expands your reach to anyone interested in your expertise by letting them

connect with you.

______________________________________________________________________________

ACTIVITY: WHICH HASHTAG IS USED MOST?

Place these in order (1,2,3,4)

(Which do you think has the most posts associated with it?)

__ #house: __ #realestate:

__#homes: __#realtor:

______________________________________________________________________________

HASHTAG BEST PRACTICES

• Understand #’s use on different sites for maximum engagement.

• The best hashtags are easy to spell, easy to remember and specific.

• Incorporating hashtags into the words of your post instead of adding them to the

end saves space and makes your posts look more fluent.

sure to monitor these hashtags in Hootsuite!

COMMONLY USED TYPES OF CONTENT

Don’t just stick to one type of media – a

mix of videos, guides, infographics and

other styles will engage your potential

customers more effectively.

The content needs to align with your overall messaging and be appropriate for the channels you’re using. This is more than just product information – think about how you can deliver real value to your audience.

In general, people remember:

80% of what they see

20% of what they read

10% of what they hear

You need to have an ongoing presence on social media, and that includes delivering ‘evergreen’ content. Fresh content on a regular basis that is timeless.

out 1 to 2 times/day 1 to 2 times/day

Twitter users will check during

their work lunch breaks and

during their commute, around

GENERATE HIGH QUALITY LEADS WITH FACEBOOK ADS

Facebook ads can either be cost per click (CPC) or cost per 1000 impressions (CPM). Facebook, also offers an optimized CPM (oCPM) that uses their algorithm to maximize exposure to your ad.

Determining you budget: o Look at your current ad budget o Use the tool to see estimated

reach and clicks these are generally quite accurate

o Start with what you are comfortable spending either daily or lifetime! Most expert marketers will have dozens of ads running that target various

audiences instead of one big campaign. Don’t be afraid to get specific!

Facebook Ad Types that best benefit REALTORS®

1. Boosted post

2. Click to website

3. Carousal Ad

4. Lead Ad

_____________________________________________________________________________

CONTENT FUNNEL – NURTURING TARGET AUDIENCES

AWARENESS MARKETING

These ads will link to blog posts, videos or podcasts. Anything that entices a ton of clicks but that does not require registering.

CONSIDERATION MARKETING

Offering things like a guide, e-book, video to download can work nicely. These ads should link to an offer/capture page.

CONVERSION MARKETING

Get them to read reviews, sign up for a webinar, schedule a time to talk about a sale, call now to learn more about this property ect…

THE ESSENTIALS OF A GREAT AD ON FACEBOOK

THREE AD FORMATS

1. Image is everything

2. Text on the image: 20% of space of your image can be

covered by an image

3. Clever copy: Make it fun!

4. Specific call to action

5. Mobile optimized

_____________________________________________________________________________

CUSTOM AND LOOKALIKE AUDIENCES

Custom Audiences: Facebook lets you serve ads to specific targets. You can use a contact list, website visitors or page likes to generate a custom audience on Facebook ads.

Lookalike Audiences: From the custom audiences, Facebook can find others who share similar tastes and interests to help your ad reach beyond your database!

Media

Choose the image or video you’d like to use in your ads.

_____________________________________________________________________________

FACEBOOK DARK POSTS

Dark posts are a good way to advertise without alienating or annoying your followers as dark posts will not appear in your feed. Dark posts offer four major benefits:

1. You can get hyper-targeted: With the ability to create as many ads as you want without spamming your followers, you can create hyper-targeted ads for every segment.

2. You can do A/B testing: For example, you might change the image, headline, body copy or call-to-action button, or change several of these components for more variety. Use this to determine which variations have the highest click-through rates (CTR). The higher the CTR, the more money you’ll save on cost-per-click (CPC) campaigns.

3. You guide your organic traffic better. Because you can see if certain images or headlines work better, A/B testing enables you to use paid social ads to guide your organic social strategy. Once you’ve determined which combinations perform the best, apply them to your organic posts for better reach and engagement.

4. You avoid ad-only streams. Ad-only Facebook streams are not only aggressive, but they tend to push away your audience. Facebook dark posts are not blasted to everyone on your feed!

_____________________________________________________________________________

GETTING STARTED WITH INSTAGRAM

As with any social media site, start by listening. Study your target market and industry on Instagram:

Who has an account and what are they following? What hashtags are they using? What are the most popular hashtags in your niche?

Don’t be shy! Get involved:

Join Instagram engagement communities where you exchange comments with each other.

This alone can increase your engagement rate 10x.

Choose a theme for your Instagram:

Pick a specific color palette that matches your brand image. Stick to the same type of filter style for every picture. This creates a beautiful and professional looking account which increases the

likelihood that someone will follow you.

UNDERSTANDING INSTAGRAM’S 5 TABS

Unlike other networks, Instragram focuses on mobile

usage. The mobile app includes 5 tabs at the bottom:

Home: Your feed of photos from people you follow.

Search: Look up people, places, things, hashtags.

You’ll also see photos that others have liked.

Camera: Tap here to start sharing!

Notifications: See new followers, favourites and

comments.

Profile: Your account, including all your posts and

account settings.

Connect your business page: In the settings,

you have an option to connect your Facebook

business page. Doing so will give you greater

promotional options in the app!

_____________________________________________________________________________

YOUR INSTAGRAM MARKETING STRATEGY

1. Market yourself with consistency:

Post once a day

Crop your images a similar way

Use the same filters

2. Study and load up on quality hashtags: When you type a hashtag into Instagram it will tell you how often it’s used and give you suggestions for others. Remember: you want to use ELEVEN hashtags on Instagram!

3. Follow, comment and like similar accounts to cross promote. 4. Leverage call-to-actions in posts and profile: ‘tag a friend’ or ‘follow for daily

updates on…’ 5. Plan prior to posting (does your image fit your theme?)

BEST PRACTICES FOR THEMES ON YOUR FEED

24 filters. The top 5:

1. Normal

Where no effect is applied to the image at all.

2. Clarendon

The filter that adds light to lighter areas and dark to darker areas. Colours really stand

out when using “Clarendon” which makes it the perfect filter for #sunset posts.

3. Juno

This filter intensifies red and yellow hues in your pictures, making them stand out more

than the blues. It’s the perfect filter for creating a feeling of depth.

4. Lark

Good for your #nature shots. It brightens and intensifies colours but not red hues,

keeping a cool feel but not washed out.

5. Ludwig

Suggested for #architecture as it brings light and dark to all the right places, whilst

intensifying the warmest colours
