When you work with buyers and sellers during the holidays, not only are you working in a market with reduced competition, but your clients are usually fairly motivated. Internet searches for real estate peak during the holiday months, which means any marketing you do could bring more interested prospects to your website.

Here are some marketing ideas for real estate agents that can help you prospect and get great leads to make your holiday season oh so jolly:

IDEA: Season Of Giving
The holidays are a great time of year for people to do some extra service for those in need. It’s a great idea for you as an Agent to host some sort of community service project. Start a toy or food drive with a local shelter, or create a community angel tree.

Make sure you have real estate marketing materials available, post some sort of announcement in your social media pages and even in your website, so you are transparent about who you are, what you do and people will get to know you a lot better. Remember that doing some sort of service is a great way to get your name out there and show that you care about the local individuals in your community.

IDEA: Holiday Party
Everybody loves free holiday parties! Whether it’s a place to entertain the kids while they’re out of school, or just an opportunity to feel the seasonal spirit, a holiday party is sure to get a lot of community members out and about.

Host the party as an open house for a home that you’ve listed; just make sure to get the seller’s permission first! When you host the holiday party, have snacks, cookie decorating, crafts, and holiday music playing in the background. This is a great way to get potential buyers to your open house, as well as connect and get leads in the neighborhood.

If you don’t have a home on the market that is available for a holiday party, host a party at your brokerage!

IDEA: Send Holiday Cards
Send holiday cards to your potential buyers and sellers! Consider creating a unique holiday greeting card design close to your real estate branding, and also pair it with a handwritten note from you on the card. When you provide a personal touch to your prospects, you make people feel important and closer to you.
