Ep. 96: Why You Should Create a Real Estate Podcast

Published: July 30, 2019, noon

b'Have you ever considered starting a podcast for your real estate business? You may protest, thinking it\\u2019s too hard. \\n\\nAlmost a hundred episodes into my podcasting journey, I\\u2019m here to tell you that you can do it!\\n\\nBut what can you talk about?\\n\\nEverything! Talk to people who help show the local flavor of your area, former clients, the major, home inspectors - these are all ideas of people who will have great things to share with your listeners!\\n\\nEven better, I sit down and record multiple episodes at a time (have you ever seen me in the same shirt in some of my YouTube videos? That\\u2019s why!). That way, I can sit down, and get it done!\\n\\nNow, from my podcast, I am able to get those episodes turned into blog posts, email content for my newsletter, social media content - I have so much content now to share!\\n\\nHaving a podcast has helped me connect with many unserved second home agents who needed support, training, and inspiration on how they can be even better! Thinking about adding a podcast to your money wheel? Listen to this week\\u2019s Tip Tuesday episode of the Selling the Dream podcast to be inspired\\n\\nHighlights of this episode:\\n\\n\\n\\nOne of the spokes on my money wheel is a podcast! But why a podcast? A podcast creates an opportunity for you to reach your market in a new way!\\n\\n\\nCreating a podcast is actually quite simple: just get a microphone and get in front of some video and talk! Interview anyone who has good information for your community; whether it be local government officials, school officials, the mayor. They all have important information for your listeners!\\n\\n\\nYou can help capture the flavor of your area, so that potential buyers get to learn about life in the area, and what they are getting themselves into. They get a taste of the local flavor.\\n\\n\\nGet past clients on the show: they can talk about their experience, and what it was like working with you!\\n\\n\\nOnce you have your podcast, you can repurpose it - turn it into a blog, share bits of it on your social media, send it in an email. It will give you so much content!\\n\\n\\nAll you need is your phone and a small mic.\\n\\n\\nWant to know how to start a podcast? Go find episodes 49 and 51, and I\\u2019ll tell you exactly what you need to do!\\n\\n\\nBe consistent with releasing episodes: people subscribe, and they do get used to you sharing new content when you\\u2019re consistent. If you miss one, don\\u2019t freak out - just make sure you have one the next week!\\n\\n\\nIf you\\u2019re not comfortable with video, that\\u2019s ok! Just do an audio episode.\\n\\n\\n\\nHey everybody, thank you so much for spending time with us today: would you do me a giant favor and share this podcast with fellow realtors, and leave a review.
