IG Poll: A deal that’s hard to find in [City]

You already know the power of Deal of the Week. This version is built for Stories.

We start with the hook, then layer in the details, then highlight the features that make this one stand out. Only after the curiosity builds do you invite them to raise their hand. In recent tests, that structure alone delivered 6x more engagement.

The hook itself? We pulled it from one of the 1,200 top‑performing Instagram posts we track at Listing Leads, and built the rest so you can execute fast.

Not sure which listing to feature?

Start here:

  • Filter for new listings (within the last 7 days)
  • Focus on your target price point
  • Stay in your ideal neighborhood or farm area

That should give you a pool of 50–70 listings.

From there, zero in on the one with the highest saves or views—that’s the listing with heat behind it.

Use this format to test urgency, stay visible with buyers, and stay top of mind.

IG Poll: Stuck?

The data says it all: many buyers aren’t stuck because they’ve lost interest—they’re stuck because they’re not sure what to do next.

Cotality’s latest research found that only 7% described the buying process as straightforward. The rest hit moments of doubt, kept questions to themselves, and moved forward without full clarity. Sometimes they didn’t know who to ask. Sometimes they felt they should already know.

That’s why this poll works. It gives buyers a low‑pressure way to say, “Yep, I’m unsure.” And once they do, you have an open door to guide them—turning uncertainty into momentum, and curiosity into conversations.

How to avoid buyer’s remorse

The housing market runs on speed. But buyers? They run on timing.

That’s the gap we uncovered digging into Cotality’s latest research on “Who (really) owns the homebuyer?” The process is faster than ever: instant alerts, same‑day offers, mounting competition, but most buyers say they still feel overwhelmed. Readiness hasn’t caught up with market velocity.

And here’s the problem: most agents respond by pushing harder. More urgency. More “act now.” That may get an offer written, but it doesn’t build trust.

This campaign flips that script. It positions you as the agent who slows the process down just enough for buyers to feel informed, prepared, and confident. That’s how you stand apart—and how you turn first‑time conversations into long‑term clients.

A deal that’s hard to find in [City]

The Deal of the Week strategy isn’t a nice‑to‑have, it’s a weekly marketing habit worth locking into your SOPs. Simple. Repeatable. Highly effective.

This style of email has helped generate thousands of conversations within our community. Why? Because it’s built to get a response. It sparks curiosity, creates urgency, and makes it easy for people to raise their hand.

But the real win? This email is just the starting point. Repurpose it into an Instagram poll. Turn it into a quick SOI text. Now you’re taking one proven campaign and multiplying its reach, its impressions, and its opportunities.

This and…

“This and…” works because it pulls people straight into a dreamstate. Two words are all it takes for them to picture a life they want: morning coffee in the sunroom, golden‑hour dinners on the deck, a run through the park. It’s not about selling a feature; it’s about letting them feel it.

That’s why this viral hook stops the scroll. It’s simple, fast, and ridiculously flexible, perfect for highlighting a listing, showcasing a neighborhood, or sharing a lifestyle moment. Below, you’ll find a list of ready‑made hooks to spark ideas, or use them as inspiration to create your own. Pair one with a short clip or photo, and you’re inviting people into a feeling they’ll want to step into.

TOTW: Cold Lead Activation Text

Engaging cold leads requires a concise, curiosity-driven approach that’s authentic and non-intrusive.

Localize the data—make it specific to your market so it feels more relevant and demonstrates your expertise. 

By asking a simple, low-pressure question, you’ll spark engagement and create a natural opening to reconnect with leads who might be ready to explore their options.

Why 2025 Might Be the Year to Buy A Home (CA)

“If you are considering buying, it is time to get busy.” Those are the words of Ted Rechtshaffen, President of TriDelta Financial, in a recent Financial Post article. His perspective highlights a key opportunity: today’s market conditions may offer buyers significant advantages that won’t last.

This email pulls data from The Canadian Real Estate Association (CREA) to explain why 2025 could be the year to make a move—and that’s where you come in.

As their trusted advisor, your expertise can guide them through every step of the process, from understanding the market to securing their dream home. This campaign emphasizes how your role is vital in helping buyers navigate the market and succeed this spring.

Spring Housing Demand

Is spring housing demand already starting?

According to HousingWire lead analyst Logan Mohtashami, the answer is yes.

In a recent article and interview with Yahoo Finance, Mohtashami highlighted a 2.2% rise in U.S. pending home sales in November—a strong signal that buyers are beginning to adapt to current market conditions and act earlier than usual.

While the traditional spring market may still feel a few months away, this trend underscores how critical it is for buyers to prepare now. Being ready with financing, pre-approval, and a solid strategy ensures they can act quickly when the perfect home comes along—and that’s where you come in.

1:1 Market Update

Here’s how you generate more listings: Have more relevant conversations—consistently.

Most agents study the market daily. But few take that insight and share it directly with the people who care most: the homeowners in their sphere.

That’s what this text is for. It’s a simple 1:1 market update. Easy to digest. Personalized. Timely. And best of all—it gives you a natural reason to reach out at the start of each month.

Need a hook? Here are 5 ways to open the conversation:

  1. “I just saw 123 Main Street sold in your neighborhood.”

  2. “I noticed 123 Main Street had a price reduction recently.”

  3. “Looks like 3 homes near you hit the market last week.”

  4. “I saw inventory in your neighborhood is up 32% compared to this time last year.”

  5. “A home down the street just went under contract after sitting for 60 days.”

Each one flows naturally into: “Would it be helpful if I sent over a quick market update from May?”

You’re already reviewing the May data. So while it’s fresh, send 5 of these texts today.

This just happened…but buyer demand still grew?

When you see a stat like this—

Mortgage demand is up 18% year-over-year, even with rates at their highest since January—that’s your green light to hit send. (Source: CNBC)

Because now, you’re not just emailing to stay in touch.

You’re emailing with relevance and value.

And if you imagine sitting across from a thoughtful, financially savvy client—the kind who tracks headlines but appreciates real context—this is exactly the kind of timely information they’re counting on you to deliver.

This campaign gives you the perfect entry point to re-engage your buyers, reframe the opportunity for sellers, and remind your database that you’re the one watching the trends—and making sense of what they actually mean.

Reasons Why People Are Selling This Summer

This letter is built for one purpose: to help you start meaningful conversations with homeowners as we head into the summer season.

It’s an updated variation of Reasons Why People Are Selling This Summer—the campaign Gretchen Coley used to generate a $2.1M listing that sold in just two weeks.

The message is timely, relevant, and direct. It speaks to what sellers are actually thinking about right now: rates, timing, uncertainty, and whether it’s still a good time to sell.

Use this version to establish a new farm—or re-engage an existing one.
Just don’t forget to personalize:

  • Include your local days on market
  • Add real data about home values or recent activity
  • Keep the call to action clear and simple

Direct mail doesn’t need 12 months to work. It just needs the right message at the right time.

Lead Activation Text (Summer Edition)

Every season is a reason to touch base with your database.

This simple text not only allows you to nurture these relationships, it also positions you as a proactive advisor in their real estate plans.

Don't overthink it—send this text today. 👇

“I started to think about selling but stopped because…”

Most agents overthink lead generation.

They build funnels. Hire videographers. Try to automate trust.

But sometimes? The highest-converting strategy is just… asking a smart question.

That’s what this campaign does.

It worked on social—because it’s personal. Disarming.

So we brought it to email, too.

Here’s why it works:

  • It meets sellers where they are—in hesitation, not decision.
  • It’s frictionless—easy to answer.
  • It starts a conversation you can actually convert.
