Video summary
The vast majority of real estate agents struggle to generate local leads because their social media strategies rely too heavily on organic posting without considering where their audience actually lives. Even with thousands of followers across platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube, most subscribers are not located in the agent's specific service area or planning to move there, meaning posts about open houses or listings reach an irrelevant demographic that cannot physically attend events. To overcome this limitation, agents must shift from relying on organic reach alone to running paid advertisements that target specific local demographics, ensuring their content is seen by people who can realistically view properties or visit neighborhoods in the immediate area.
Once a potential client clicks through an ad, the strategy requires replacing generic calls-to-action like phone numbers with links to dedicated one-page landing pages designed specifically for lead capture. This process involves guiding users from an initial opt-in page where they provide their contact information in exchange for valuable resources such as buyer or seller guides, directly into a second "money" or thank-you page optimized for conversion. On this subsequent page, agents can create urgency by highlighting that properties are selling quickly and open houses are fully booked, while simultaneously offering video walkthroughs formatted horizontally for mobile viewing to enhance the user experience before encouraging them to schedule private showings through an integrated calendar.
Beyond simply capturing contact details, it is crucial to manage leads immediately after they opt in by sending automated emails containing high-value assets like drone videos and educational content about pocket listings. The entire funnel should be tailored to a specific avatar, whether targeting buyers or sellers, using pre-made templates that allow agents to run effective local Facebook ads without needing advanced technical skills. By mastering these two core tactics—targeted advertising combined with simple yet strategic landing page funnels—agents can scale their lead generation significantly beyond the limits of cold calling and organic social media posts.
Ultimately, success in real estate marketing depends on defining a clear target audience and utilizing paid tools to ensure content reaches only those who are geographically capable of engaging with listings or attending events. Agents should focus on building these straightforward funnels that guide users from an initial interest through immediate value delivery to a final call-to-action for scheduling appointments, thereby capturing more qualified leads than they can possibly handle. This approach not only solves the problem of posting to non-local audiences but also provides a sustainable system for growing a business by leveraging local demographics and automated follow-up sequences rather than relying on luck or outdated methods.

what is up everybody welcome back to the
channel you guys in the past several
years SE six seven years now all day
every day speaking to real estate agents
on the topic of social media marketing
right what they're doing to capture
leads how they're putting out their post
how they're marketing their listings and
open houses I've questioned as far as
like a questionnaire right every time I
speak to someone I'll shoot them a
questionnaire where I'm just asking
basic questions on on their current
marketing how many leads they're
capturing um how many are their links on
social media branded um how many likes
do they have on their Facebook business
page right basic questions that I that I
ask before I jump on a call um with a
real estate agent and when I tell you
this number you guys I if if you've been
following me for a while whether here on
Facebook or or on YouTube shout out to
every single one of you who's been
following me for years now but I keep I
in many many of my videos I'll always
use the number 99% I keep saying
99% it's literally
99.9 okay but 99% you guys 99% of real
estate agents will always say zero when
it comes to how many local leads are
they capturing on social media now if
you're that agent and every now and then
I'll speak to an agent that's that's
really trying to build Nationwide right
typically it's investors that I speak to
that that are building Nation actually
not even investors even even investors
are just marketing to either just their
local area maybe their state maybe a
couple States if that wholesalers and
and and and um long-term holders but the
typical real estate agent 99% of the
time they're not capturing local leads
and 99% of the time they'll tell me
their their dream location is in their
backyard like if they can just focus in
on their backyard if they can get the
entire city to know who they are you
know that's their that's their dream
area of doing business right your
typical buyer that you can pick up your
seller that you can drive down and list
their property right it's literally 99%
of the time where an agent will tell me
David I'd rather take over my so I'd
rather take over my local area but the
problem is you guys you have to you have
to you have to keep this in mind like
you have to know this right this is
marketing this is where you're posting
your listings you're you're putting out
your business over here on these
platforms right and and and and they're
all the same so pick your platform pick
your poison it's all the same Instagram
Tik Tok LinkedIn YouTube Facebook here
the personal page the business page it's
damn near all the same you have to keep
in mind that when you grow your
following and you're out there posting
posting posting what you'll end up
finding out is that is that is that 99%
so 99% of agents are doing this and then
also when it comes to your friend count
it's 99% 99% of the people that will end
up following us on any platform do not
live in our area and they're never
planning on it and that's why I always
always always say use me as an example
like ask yourself if I'm out here in San
Diego marketing my business let's say
I'm in I'm in the real estate space and
I'm showing you my open house here in
San Diego how many of you guys on my
personal friend list on my Instagram
follower list on my YouTube on my
YouTube subscribers on my hundreds of
LinkedIn connections on the thousands of
people who follow me on my business page
on my Facebook business page how many of
you would actually care about my
openhouse coming up this weekend in San
Diego none of you would and and again
flip the script it's the same exact
thing so as you're putting out organic
post right I'm going to show you the
problem and the and the solution to why
the majority of real estate agents are
not capturing leads online um and and if
you are capturing a few here and there
I'm not talking to the few here and
there I'm talking about like at scale
I'm talking about consistent I'm talking
about actually building a brand in your
local area right I'm actually talking
about taking these posts and letting
people down the street see it by the
thousands right I I I want to put up a
listing and get thousands of people in
San Diego to see that listing right if
that's where the property is is listed
right I'm talking to that real estate
agent that says David yeah that's me if
if if I can just snap my finger and if I
could take over a few zip codes I'm all
in I'm telling you guys it happens well
there's two there there I'm going to
show you I'm going to show you two
problems and then I'm going to show you
the two solutions but as I always say on
all my videos especially here on YouTube
hundreds of videos I always say it
happens it has to happen and it only
happens with an actual ad so pick your
platform they're all the same if you
spend the majority of your time on
LinkedIn but here's another thing that
you got to also keep in mind you have to
know where your avatar is at so it's not
about you it's not about you it's not
about what platforms your your act on
but at the same time I would think that
majority of you guys are pretty smart
right you're professionals real estate
agent local business owner you you own a
gym down the street right I would for
sure know that you guys are smart and
and and and and and and you know where
your avatar is at right so as I speak to
my audience Facebook YouTube this is who
I'm speaking to majority of you guys are
seen this are real estate agents so as
you put out content you want to make
sure you know who you're putting in
front of so all I'm saying is that as
you look at your friend list on any
platform 99% of the people will not live
in your area and are not planning to
move to your area 99% of the people that
follow us even on our personal Facebook
page you got 3,400 friends on your on
your personal Facebook friend list and
you're telling me you know all of them
not at all like not at all you don't
know all of them at all at all at all
it's damn near
99.5% right so so a person that has
3,400 Facebook friends it's about it's
about damnn I don't even know what the
exact percentage
is I could yeah but just do the damn
math it's pretty damn basic out of the
3,400 friends you have how many of those
are actual people you know friends and
family people you do business with
co-workers your broker your appraiser
your inspector right your your lender
your title rep your esro officer other
agents of the business your past clients
how many out of the 3,400 friends on
your personal Facebook page how many are
people you actually know right and and
people that live in your area or maybe
maybe maybe maybe plan on moving to your
area I'm telling you man the average the
average person with 3,400 friends and
this could be 3,400 followers on
Instagram it could be 3,400 followers on
Tik Tok it could be 3,400 subscribers on
YouTube I think I'm like at I think I'm
like at 6,700 on YouTube not one of them
lives in San Diego right so it's like as
I'm putting out content again I know who
I'm talking to as you're putting out
content you have to know who you're
talking to just don't put it out you
can't like that's not I know your broker
might be telling you that or your social
media coach might be saying that and the
Gary Vees of the world but dude it's not
like that like if you're a local
business owner you got to be showing
that that your content you got to be
showing that post to your local area
especially in the real estate in the
real estate space as we're putting out
listings and open houses like because
again when you look at that 3,400 friend
list I'm willing to to bet I'm willing
to bet and you guys take the challenge
okay I challenge every single one of you
guys I challenge you I challenge you
challenge you challenge you look at your
personal Facebook friend list okay the
2200 the 3,400 if you're like me the
4,900 look at that ju Just Facebook
alone how many of those people do you
actually know okay I'm just saying out
of 3,400 typically you'll know about
you'll know and and this is with you
being super popular and and super let me
let me make sure this is not pausing
okay sorry about that this is with
someone that's super popular right
you've been in your town forever you
went to school there you went to college
there you went to ele there your grade
school friends are there your mom your
dad let's say you've been in your town
I've literally been in San Diego my
entire life I know a lot of people right
but here's the big butt the big booty
what or what here here's the big booty
butt but when you look at that personal
Facebook friend list I'm willing to bet
it's no more than 200 people I'm willing
to bet it's no more than 200 people that
you actually have a personal
relationship with not some random that
requested you from Kentucky and you live
in Florida no not not these randoms and
that's what I'm trying to that's my
point within the point is that the
majority of our friend list Instagram
followers Tik Tok followers LinkedIn
connections YouTube subscribers 99 plus%
of every single one of them will not
live in your area and never plan on
moving there you're not moving a San
Diego so if I keep showing you my open
house if I keep showing you my listings
in San Diego California not one of you
would give a damn not one of you so it's
like that when you're sharing content
you guys it it's like that so the two
problems there's two problems on two
problems two reasons why the majority of
real estate agents do not capture a ton
of leads for their listings and open
open houses okay there's two reasons
here there's two reasons and and you
know what I'm going to actually share my
screen let's just go into it cuz I have
I have shout out to Sher I have I have
and this is where I got the 3,400 from
right shout out to Cheryl shout out to
Cheryl I was randomly going through my
my newsfeed just a few minutes ago
that's why I'm cutting this video again
those of you that think you need to set
aside set aside time to go and produce
and go create and go record a damn video
dude I'm telling you it's it's it's so
far that's so far from the truth it's
not even funny that's got to be the
biggest myth ever um and I learned this
years ago years ago when I started
putting out content don't think you got
to do that don't think it has to be all
perfect don't think you got to set aside
a bunch of time to to to record these
videos you don't necessarily have to do
it at all hundreds of videos for me
personally on my YouTube channel alone
hundreds of them even this one today is
literally just day in the life of me
just documenting what the hell I'm doing
but keeping it on topic right so in your
case if you're a real estate agent
document what you're doing you're
putting together an agreement you're
putting together a contract you're
putting together you know you're setting
up an inspection you're you're calling
your inspector you're you're you're
you're you have a 10-minute call with
your lender to go over a client's um um
um VA loan everything and anything that
you're doing you guys start documenting
it but but but also also what you want
to start doing also which is super super
important is start focusing on one
person so before I show you the two
problems and the two solutions that's a
little side a little side uh uh
statement focus in on one person you
guys as you're bringing your content to
social media you want to focus in on one
person your avatar that's marketing
that's marketing 101 right not even just
internet or social media marketing
that's literally marketing 101 you have
to pick a Target pick an avatar who are
you trying to serve who are you speaking
to right now now I know real estate
because I come from mortgages I come
from marketing but I also spent six
years as a licensed loan originator in
the state of California and in the state
of Washington I had both my licenses at
the same time while I'm doing loans here
over the phone in San Diego crushing it
right but that was a six-year run from
2010 to 2016 and then it was in 2017
when I started teaching and coaching and
Consulting real estate agents on social
media marketing right so so so that was
the niche that was my avatar is to focus
in on the real estate agent focus in on
the local business owner right so in
your case with with real estate
specifically and you again you could
pick pick any Niche it's all the same
but with real estate specifically the
majority of of of Agents think they got
to set aside time to produce video when
you don't just document and throw it out
I'm literally documenting what I just
saw right now shout out to Cheryl but
I'm literally in my newsfeed I had a
couple minutes and I'm like dude I see a
couple problems with this post let me
share and let me teach and let me show
them the solution to to Really
skyrocketing your your buyer leads in
this case when it comes to a listing or
when it comes to an open house a
physical property in a physical location
we have to Target that area so so the
Golden Nugget the Golden Nugget before I
show you the two the two problems the
two solutions the Golden Nugget is that
you want to focus it on one person now a
lot of times that's hard for a real
estate agent because they're so
knowledgeable you guys are so passionate
you guys are so fired up or or and and
and even in the last few months last
year or so a lot of you guys have even
been down right you guys even been you
know out of it not closing right what
you want to be closing and I'm telling
you here's one reason why yes the market
shifts and yes the market has been doing
has been funky in the past year two
years but as you try to build on social
media that's what I'm trying to help you
with is just the tweaks that are
necessary if you guys plan on building
on social media okay you want to you
want to make sure you you you you
implement these two solutions that I'm
going to give you right away but before
that real quick again the Golden Nugget
the golden the Golden Nugget the golden
s uh statement is you want to focus it
on one person so although you may want
to bring all this knowledge and all this
passion and and all your education to
social media one day you're talking
about VA loans in that Facebook post the
next day you're putting out an Instagram
on interest rates right the next day
you're putting up a Tik Tok and you're
showing someone you know a walkth
through you're just kind of all over the
place with your one day you're putting
out a monthly newslet monthly newsletter
for for for Phoenix Arizona and you're
sharing it to your 3,400 friends who
don't even live in Phoenix Arizona right
so so all over the place with your
content my biggest recommendation when
it comes to Marketing in general when it
comes to marketing 101 is pick an avatar
ask yourself what who fires you up more
is it the buyer is it the seller is it
the investor is it the person going
through probate like is it the person
that's going through a divorce and and
they need a seller their property like
is it an expired listing like who are
you guys focused on right that's that's
number one because one one and and and
and not only do I know that because of
marketing you guys but I also know that
because that's all I see in my news feed
so if we're if we're friends here for
the first time you guys and we just
connected here on Facebook this is where
I try to put out the majority of my of
my videos because a lot of it is for
real estate agents these friends that I
have here every single one of them a lot
of you guys have been following me you
already know this I've said this a
million times every single friend the
4900 to be exact every single friend is
a real estate
agent and it's been this way since 2017
so since I left mortgages jumped into
all of this stuff my whole strategy was
to request real estate agents and start
teaching them how to Market on social
media that was my number one strategy to
this day
um it's how I connected with so many
agents it's how I have you know over a
100 reviews on my Facebook business page
alone hundreds of of agents that i' that
I've worked with when it comes to this
stuff um but the reason why I'm even
showing you this the reason why I'm even
bringing this up is because I see by the
thousands how everyone post that's why
shout out to Cheryl shout out to Cheryl
but I see by the thousands how everyone
post and then when I speak to you guys
and I ask you how much leads came in
it's always goose egg it's always zero
right and here are the reasons so side
note was pick an avatar is it is it the
buyer is it the seller now in this case
with a listing today's video I'm going
to be focused on a listing right how to
really Skyrocket your buyer leads for
this listing and how to post it on
social media the right way right to to
generate a shitload Elites okay I'm
sorry there's no other way to say it but
you got to get fired up because this is
so basic you guys have 99% of it and
again I'm using that number again I'm
using that number again it's 99% both
both sides positive and negative 99% of
you guys post the most amazing stuff
right you guys know what to write you
know what to put down the copy which is
what we call Copy the ad copy which is
the text the copy you guys have all that
part right right so so so 99% of you
guys are are are putting out the right
content
okay now when it comes to a list
as I'm saying the side note pick your
avatar the buyer the seller or the
investor right and I would think most of
you guys are after listings I would
think most of you guys are after sellers
if you're a typical residential single
family home licensed real estate agent I
would assume that your dream client is a
listing your dream client is a seller
right and that's why I'm focusing today
this video on
this so if that's the case start putting
when it's not a listing when you don't
have a listing start putting out content
regarding selling okay that's the side
note I I'll make a whole another video
on that subscribe to my YouTube channel
I have a whole new video on how to
actually capture listing leads how to
capture seller leads I'll put out a
video on that but but that's what you
want to do that's the side note okay
that's the side the side statement the
side the side just piece of gold that I
want to want to share with you before I
actually go into these two problems here
with this actual listing post but but
find your avatar okay find your avatar
and then just plug in here on on YouTube
or Facebook and reach out to me let me
help you with this stuff let me set all
this stuff up to you once you have why
don't you do that comment below or DM me
who's your avatar that's what I want you
to do comment below or DM me who is your
guys' avatar okay is it the buyer or is
it the seller I'm willing to bet the
majority of real estate agents that are
watching this right now it's it's it's
damn near one of those it's one it's not
really anyone else most of you are
focused on on one of those and I'm even
willing to bet the majority are focused
on just sellers just listings right but
but let me me know either comment below
subscribe on YouTube comment below on my
on the video or DM me here on Facebook
let me know who is your buyer or seller
because now all it comes down to is
putting together a simple PDF putting
together a simple buyer guide and a
seller guide and start putting that on
on social media I'll make a whole
another video on that you guys that's
how you would absolutely crush it okay
so so now now let's go into the two
problems let's go into the two
problems with the
way 99.5
5% of real estate
agents post on social media okay this is
what
99.5% this is what what what what ends
up put getting put out and again you
guys this could be on Facebook Instagram
LinkedIn it's all the same you could
have put this on X whatever this post
exact post the image and everything it's
the same on every platform right she did
this the same in groups in the Facebook
groups she did this she she put the same
damn copy and paste on LinkedIn it's the
same thing okay so here's problem number
one problem number one is the fact that
as we're posting organically we're
posting it to the 3400 friends where 99
plus% of them don't live in the area so
they're not coming to the open house
okay they're physically not there and so
again if this was an open house in in
San Diego how many of you guys just on
my personal Facebook friend list alone
how many of you guys would be down to
meet me Saturday and Sunday at my open
house in San Diego how many of you guys
raise your hand comment below DM me
shoot me an email send me a letter let
me know how many of you guys would
physically come to my open house this
Saturday and Sunday now keep in mind I'd
be posting that and I'd be posting it to
my 4900
friends right where I know for a fact
let's go down to the real number I know
for a for a fact
fact is that out of the 4
4983 only one of them lives in San Diego
shout out to Betty and it's actually my
client with I don't think no she's not
with no I don't I don't want to say the
wrong brokerage but she's out here in
San Diego
crushing it and she is literally my only
friend so again I'm giving you guys I'm
saying okay if you if you're super
popular and you've been in your in your
NEC of woods forever and you have 3,400
friends okay I'm giving you 200 I'm
saying you you personally know you shook
their hand you gave them a kiss you
probably even messed around with them in
high school whatever I'm giving you 200
and I'm not saying Cheryl specifically
I'm speaking in general cuz this is the
same for every one of you and for every
damn platform these people do not live
in our area and the 200 people that we
actually do know that's on that list
they're already people that know us in
the business anyways and they're
probably already other PE they're
probably people the 200 friends that she
actually knows friends and family
they're people that know other realtors
in the area as well so it's like dude
like how do we really sep how do we
really do this two problems you guys the
two problems problem number one
is that when we post organically we're
posting it to the wrong audience not one
of these people live in the area now
maybe again maybe a few of them maybe a
few of them which is her husband her
uncle her kids the kids parents the
friends from the PTA meeting the friends
that we met at lunch in last week when
our broker had an event for lunch right
these colleagues are co-workers are
circle of influence that know that know
we do real estate in our local area that
consists of the
200 and they ain't
coming the other
3200 friends I'm one of them and again
this is not Cheryl specifically I'm not
picking on cherl shout out to Cheryl
reach out to me let me help you once I
tell you these two solutions and once I
show you the simple tweak it I'm telling
you guys all of you can do this this is
basic stuff so I'm say all I'm saying is
that if you're if you're really trying
to scale on social media you're a real
estate agent you're a local business
owner here's what it is man as you post
this organically it's being seen to the
wrong audience that's problem number one
solution to problem number one is what I
was mentioning earlier you have to run
an ad this has to be a Facebook and
Instagram ad and back to what I was
saying earlier as well knowing your
avatar and knowing where your avatar
hangs out when it comes to list when it
comes to to to just the
demographics the demographics in fact
let's Google it together the age
group of Facebook
users you have to know where your avatar
hangs out right so if you're posting on
on on Tik Tok okay that I I would assume
if you're a real estate if you're a real
estate agent and you're posting on Tik
Tock I would assume that you love
working with Buyers right I would assume
that your avatar is probably a firsttime
home buyer someone who's young 18 19 20
21 they've been on Tik Tok since they
were 17 and now they're 20 now they're
21 right and you're putting out real
estate content for the firsttime home
buyer Tik Tok would be your place but
again even if these were 3,400 people
following you on Tik Tok 99 plus% of
those followers on Tik Tok won't be
living in your area and they don't plan
on moving to your area just like you
don't plan on moving to San Diego right
so pick your platform I always say
Facebook because again a lot of my
content is for the real estate agent who
has that client that happens to be a
little older that happens to know that
homeowner who may be thinking of selling
down the line and and lives two miles
away from them and they're a local real
estate agent they know that that person
may may want to sell someday and that
person's 39 okay you have to know your
where your demographic where your avatar
is hanging out and I'm telling you right
now if you're a typical traditional
local business owner your person's on
Facebook they're on Facebook right here
Facebook users span a a wide range of
Ages with the largest groups being 25 to
34 right 35 this is where I'm at I'm in
the 35 to 44 range 16% of Facebook users
with interest including family updates
local news and group activities so 55
plus increasingly active on Facebook and
often spend more time on Facebook than
any other group right 55 plus there's
your
listings there are your listings right
there that age group is hanging out on
Facebook so the problem and then the
solution problem number one is that our
open houses our listings our real estate
related content is going to the wrong
person the solution to that is you have
to run an ad you already have the right
text you already even have the right
image here is all that's missing you
guys here is all that's missing and and
I'm GNA and I'm going to just go
straight into into into into problem and
solution number two right away as I
share solution number one on on this one
problem number one is you're not
targeting the post of where the property
is located it's a physical property we
have to let everybody know and their
mother know about that property that
that lives in that area Okay so posting
organically on any damn platform is not
going to do it it's not going to do it I
have to show this property and and it's
exactly what you would do offline
anyways God knows that Cheryl if she's
super active and and and super out there
she's obviously on the phone calling
everybody and their mother but she's
probably out there around the around the
property as well going to the going to
the neighbor's house door knocking the
neighbors hey my name's Cheryl poell
Powell with JLA realy I'm going to be
having an open house just thought I'd
invite you guys make sure come come
along bring your
friends God knows that Cheryl is out
there shaking hands and kissing babies
in her local area promoting her open
house it's a there's there's an easier
way you guys it's a Facebook ad it's a
Facebook ad problem number one is we're
not targeting the local area with a
Facebook ad the solution is a Facebook
ad Cheryl needs to crush that local area
Canyon Lake you can literally have
thousands tens of thousands of people in
can Lake Texas know about this open
house by
tonight all with the same post you don't
got to change actually there is there is
one one tweak at the bottom right here
there's one tweak which is problem
number two so we're going to go straight
into problem number
two it's just one tweak at the end the
call to action that needs to be that
needs to be needs to change and I'm
going to show you that that's problem
number two so problem number one we're
posting to the wrong people the solution
to problem number one is run a Facebook
ad you can run this ad you and and again
nothing changes the text everything
there use the same text use the same
image all that all you do is go into
your back end into the ads manager and
run an ad on it run an ad on it 10 bucks
a day 15 bucks a day run it for five
days run it for 10 days spend $10 a day
and run it for 10
days and get everyone and their mother
to see that property in Canyon Lake you
would crush it you would crush it and
back to what I was saying earlier in the
video your avatar if you're to focus in
on one Avatar the buyer or the seller
and then get your hands on a PDF a
simple seller guide a five pager
teaching people what it takes to sell
and you start to use that as bait as you
run ads to your local area and you get
people to download it they click they
enter their name and email they download
your seller guide you just capture the
lead if you were to do do that you guys
and and I'm talking about spending maybe
10 bucks a day for 10 days maybe you'll
run two a month you would absolutely
crush it okay now with this one problem
number one solution number one it's a
Facebook ad problem number two is the
call to action and you guys again shout
out to Cheryl this is not a shot at her
at all because I'm speaking to every
single real estate agent in the United
States of America America I've seen
everyone's post and this is what it
looks like this is damn near
99.999% of every single
openhouse call to
action post okay it's always it's always
a phone number it's always it's always a
phone
number it's always an email or it's
always a phone number did I say that one
it's always a phone number it's always
an email or it's always a text me right
same same as phone
number but but another big booty
but but if this property is being seen
to thou is being seen and shown if this
property is being shown to thousands of
people who don't live in that area they
call to action is not even going to
matter but at the same time no one's
calling and again Cheryl flip the script
if this was me and you saw a 619 Sand
Diego located open house and we were
just random friends on Facebook or we
were just random followers on Instagram
or I just randomly followed you on Tik
Tok you don't even follow me back or I
just randomly subscribed to you on
YouTube you don't subscribe to me back
but I just randomly found you online
dude that's what's going on right
problem number one wrong people but
again because it's such wrong people no
one's calling right no one's calling so
problem number two you guys is the call
to action problem number two is the call
to action this is not the call to action
it's not your phone number it's not text
me it's not email me it's not and for
those that of you that actually have a
link right those of you that actually
have a link that's the solution the
solution is a landing page but see again
I I hope I'm trying to I hope I'm really
trying to prove a point when I when I
use the percentage 99.9 you guys I'm
really trying to prove a point because
it's literally that number and if you
want to watch this video and say David
none of your none of that shit's making
sense I capture leads all damn day
they're all local I get them from social
media I'm a top producing real estate
agent and I've been doing this for years
if you're that person shout out to you
you're the 0. one I'm speaking to
99.9% of you other ones
that that that are posting like this and
just wondering why you're not doing it
online wondering why leads are not
coming in from this openhouse post okay
so it's not a click to your website it's
not a click to your to your cookie
cutter replicated beautiful Keller
Williams website it's not that link
problem number two is that the majority
of you are not sending people to what we
call a simple landing page okay it's not
a website it's a web page it is one page
okay this is where we've been on social
media for God knows how many years past
six years seven years I know when I came
into the business at 7 years 7 years ago
that's when I was learning sales funnels
I still thought we were in the website
days I still thought a fancy website
prior when I was doing mortgages I was a
phone guy I didn't need social media I
didn't need marketing I need to shake
hands with real estate agents and try to
win you over cuz I'm the lender I didn't
have to do any of that we were literally
cold calling leads all damn day as a
mortgage loan originator so I didn't I
didn't need any of this stuff but as I
leave mortgages and I jump into into
into social media wanting to help agents
I started learning all this stuff for
the first time and it was in 2017 when
sales funnels landing pages that's what
we call this this is this is a sales
funnel it's a simple landing page that's
when it really started to to blow up and
that's when I that's that's when I
started learning about it for the first
time a basic page this is what it takes
to capture leads so if you guys are not
capturing leads on on on on social media
it's because the post is going to the
wrong person it's going out organically
it's not an ad the moment you turn this
bad boy into an ad it is literally
designed to capture leads it is a
Facebook ad so I'm just
saying it's it's it's going to capture
ad a lot of people ask Dave well Dave
what if my what if my ad doesn't work
what if I don't capture any leads dude
I'm telling you it's a Facebook ad it's
going to work as long as you put out the
right offer right and in this case it's
a listing as long as we're putting out
the right link which is the solution to
problem number two problem number two is
that every single one of you guys have
the wrong call to action the wrong call
to action this right here for more
information click here that's the call
to action okay that's what this the call
to action should have been for more
information click here and it would have
been a simple landing page where it took
me here now again I keep banging on
organic because let's say for example I
did opt in let's say she did have that
link shout out to Cheryl out there in
Canyon Lake Texas I'm in San Diego
California even if I did mess around
clicked on your landing page cuz we're
Facebook friends and I opted in let's
say it was a listing an open house and I
opt in I wasn't I'm just I'm opting for
the hell of it like I'm not really
moving to Canyon Lake right so I have to
really hold my breath you guys for any
of these organic followers to ever want
to come to my open house right so
problem number one solution number one I
would have been running a Facebook ad
number two click here for all the
details and this is where I'm going to
end it this is solution to problem
number two is that your call to actions
you guys your call to actions are just
the wrong one no one's calling no one's
texting no one's emailing you no one's
commenting below no one's entering their
information when they click on your
beautiful fancy Keller Williams website
that you put at the bottom of your
openhouse post no one's clicking on it
right and so you have to be running an
ad if I was running an ad on this open
house I would be getting thousands of
people in that local area to see it it's
designed to get people to capture leads
as long is I'm sending people to the
right
link okay it's all about the link you
guys that is the solution to problem
number two that the majority of you guys
are not sending the click so as you're
posting on social media there's no click
to get me to give up my
information this is a basic landing page
every single one misses it this could be
the same for an open house it could be
the same for a listing it's one page two
problems no one's running Facebook ads
targeting where that property is located
and no one's sending people to a simple
landing page to capture the lead those
are the two things you guys when you can
really dive in and say okay ask yourself
am I really trying to take social media
to the next level am I really trying to
build my real estate business or my
local business on social media I'm
telling you right now you guys from a
mark marketer perspective and just a
marketer recommendation this is my
personal
professional
recommendation there's only two things
that one should be learning if they are
a local business owner if they are
trying to take over a local
community there's only two things that
I'd be diving in
1,000% and learning now there is no 2026
it is now you said what you're going to
do today you said that back in 2024 and
and and you still haven't done it right
shout out to some of you clients right
you still haven't done it we're in the
damn next year already still haven't
done it it's like dude this is something
you have to do now two things learn how
to run a Facebook ad the right way and
learn how to put together these simple
landing pages to capture openhouse leads
listing leads buyer guide leads seller
guide leads any type of lead you could
possibly want want to catch in your
local area learn how to put together
these simple pages to make it happen if
this was a Facebook ad I'd have
thousands of people in that local area
see the post they would have
clicked the ones that were super
interested would have raised their hand
and they would have came to this one
page one pager and they would have opted
in and because it's a listing an open
house I always go for the phone number
obviously on a listing or an open house
if I was given away a buyer guide or a
seller guide I wouldn't be offering I
wouldn't be asking for the phone number
but in this case yes so so look again
that was page one right as I opt in as
that person in my local area someone
down the street who saw my ad again you
guys it's the same post all I did was
click the button and rent it as an ad
pick the location rent it as an ad and
all I also did problem number two is
that the solution was to get rid of the
phone number
get them to click on a simple link that
takes them to a simple landing page
where they can opt in all about the
property and look same thing as they opt
in name email phone number as they opt
in this is the ice and on the cake they
then land on this second page shout out
to one of my clients Emma she showed me
her landing page and these web pages you
guys that you have from your broker you
can't use it the KV cores you can't use
it because they're not basic these a lot
of them are too damn overwhelming and
complicated there's two pages there is
two pages this is page
two shot yeah shout out to my client
Emma this isn't Emma this is Andrea but
the reason why I brought up Emma is
because on her landing page you just
want to make sure that when people opt
in and they land on the second page so
whatever landing page software you guys
are using when they opt in and land on
your second page so if you put are
putting out a KV core if you are putting
out a Coldwell if you are putting out a
real T1 website and you think that that
website's going to generate leads and
that's the website that you have in your
intro and that's the website that You'
be sharing on social media okay if
that's the website that's getting people
to opt in for something listing
openhouse whatever if you're getting
people to opt in when they enter their
information name email or name email and
phone number and they land on the second
page here is another Golden
Nugget just make sure that you can put a
video on this second page there's only
two pages right I showed you page one
that was the listing I showed you page
one right page one they opted in they
then landed on page two just make sure
whatever landing page software you're
using you can put a video on page two
okay super super important and this is
this is the icing on the cake and this
is where I'm going to wrap wrap up this
video on this video you guys in this
video there's four bullet points to hit
