How To Create Lead Generating Real Estate Craig’s List Ads
The Steps
- Take some video of the property! Or, use a service like Animoto to generate a video from your property pictures. Then Upload The Video To Youtube.
- Create A Blog Post For The Property and Embed the Youtube Video.
- (Optional) Set The Video To Autoplay
- Take a screenshot of the video.
- Use FTP or upload an image of the video using wordpress.
- Be sure to have a lead capture offer on the page next to the listing blog post. Something like “Receive Future Videos By Email” works well.
- Create your Craig’s List Post with the words “With Video” in the Title.
- In the body of the post, use html to display an image of the Youtube video that links back to your blog post when it is clicked on.
- When the visitor lands on your site, the video will autoplay, and if your website is structured right, there’s a good chance you’ll generate opt ins to your offer.
- Do this consistently and your list of potential buyers and sellers will grow quickly!
