Getting ready to launch a real estate brand? This is an exciting time, but it’s also one that requires you to carefully follow the right steps. Before you start getting the word out about your brand, make sure you’re completely ready for your launch.

When launching your new brand in the real estate world, do the following first:

  • Know who your customers are. This is a straightforward step for many real estate agents. Learn about your local market and know who your marketing is aimed at. What types of clients are looking to buy and sell property in your area? Do you specialize in a certain market, such as vacation properties or retirement condos? Taking these factors into consideration will help you figure out the best ways to reach out to potential clients.
  • Think about your first impression. Consider how you want your brand to appear to clients. If you mainly sell modest-sized homes in a suburban environment near good schools, focus on providing a family-friendly impression. If you sell luxury homes to wealthy clients, you’ll want your brand to have an upscale appearance.
  • Consider what sets you apart. Determine what makes you stand out from the competition, and draw attention to these factors. Point them out in brochures, or show images that reflect these factors on your website.
  • Focus on anticipation. Build excitement before launching your new brand. Find clever ways to do so through print media, TV or online sites. The more anticipation you build, the more clients you’ll end up attracting right from the start.

Once you’ve launched your real estate brand, it’s important to do occasional checks to make sure it’s still as effective as it was on its launch day.
