Charles McMillan ~ Internet Marketing
Does the New NAR President Get Internet Marketing ? Folks, internet marketing is the MOST important thing in Real Estate. the Realtors Want Sellers to Believe that they NEED to be on the MLS even though it is in NO WAY true. Realtors, NAR want buyers to believe that the MLS - Realtor.com is the Best place to shop for real estate even though this is in No Way True.
NAR wants the Buyers to go to those Mega-Sites so that they can sell the buyer "other stuff" and charge advertisers millions of dollars based on the Buyers Eyes that come to their sites.
But the Truth is that Sellers who Sell without a Realtor can put more photos out, put out videos and lots of information and even use blogs to sell real estate and Do It All For FREE.. save the commission - have LESS liability (I can Prove it) and find a buyer quicker.
The buyers are looking online for Real Estate, whether it is listed with a Realtor or Not is irrelevant to them, the Point is, Can I find What is For Sale - What Can I find out about what is for Sale - is there pictures and videos ... the Realtors Gets in Your Way folks.. so Yes .. Internet Marketing is VERY important. ONE true sign that your Realtor Does NOT get Internet Marketing is that they do not Own their Own Online Identity, they know nothing about Search Engine Marketing or Reputation management and don't even know how to promote themselves well online .. how are they to Promote your Real Estate for Sale.
