Realtors are always looking for a way to stand out and get buyers to come to them. Premium services offer a way to entice buyers to utilize your own services, but it can be difficult to find the right touch. Think outside your industry to get new ideas. Take a page from the travel market. To increase their bottom line, they began offering a personal photographer for travelers during their vacation.<\/p>\n

When you think about social media, pictures are one of the first things that come to mind. With smartphones, they\u2019re easy to post and are always there as a memory. Photos make great shareable content, and let others quickly see what you\u2019re doing. Travel photos get the lion\u2019s share of images. In June, 3.8 million images on Instagram were travel-related. Tourist companies around the world are providing local photographers<\/a> to take pictures for tourists.<\/p>\n

How does this relate to real estate marketing?<\/h2>\n

One of the most important moments in anyone\u2019s life is when they purchase a home. Providing a personal photographer to commemorate this event would be a premium service that homeowners would love, but probably wouldn\u2019t think about themselves. They could use this service anytime within a year. It might be on move-in day, from opening the door to their home the first time to unloading the moving van. Maybe they\u2019d take advantage of the service after they were moved in and set up.<\/p>\n

With families more mobile than ever, being able to post pictures of their new place on social media would allow their loved ones to see where they\u2019re living.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Photos have always held a fascination for people, but today\u2019s generation loves digital pictures as part of their memory box. <\/p>\n

A professional photographer can seem like a luxury that most people wouldn\u2019t hire on their own. If your office provided this service as part of your buyer\u2019s package, you would stand out. Perhaps even pay your photographer to gently watermark your logo on the images prepared for the homeowner. You’ve got this!<\/p>\n
