Neighborhood farming is still one of the most effective strategies for real estate prospecting. Unfortunately, despite advances in technology, most agents farm with traditional "one-size-fits-all" techniques, notably direct mail postcards, flyers and door-to-door canvassing.
If you’re looking for a more advanced way to farm neighborhoods, you should check out IPing (edit: also check out GeoSearch and EverybodyAnswers). IPing offers a simple, but powerful way to connect with prospects across channels and devices-reaching then with one-to-one messages at scale.
IPing can best be described as “digital door knocking.”
IPing works off of a unique series of technologies, designed to connect a prospects street address with at least one IP address in that home. The program then targets consumers online using banners ads with calls-to-action designed to secure leads. For an agent, IPing provides targeting accuracy and brand value at a fraction of the costs of traditional farming methods such as postcard mailers.
IPing is a simple, user-friendly platform designed with your busy schedule in mind. Here’s how it works:
Agents can use standard creative templates or work with RAD’s content team to develop customized creative units with a variety of calls-to-action.
The minimum investment for IPIng is $1,947, which delivers:
IPing agents receive weekly reports, tracking the following data by ad unit:
Here’s what’s notable about IPing: dollar for dollar, it will connect you to 30 homes for the cost of sending a single farming postcard.
If you're looking to build your personal brand and enhance your real estate prospecting efforts at the same time, check out IPing.
