Call All Real Agents! Need Ideas For Your Next Super Star Video?

Having is a great way to market your business. YouTube, Facebook Live and Instagram all offer the ability for you to post videos. These can generate leads, develop a brand and attract buyers and sellers. There are many ideas out there for videos. But, before you start posting videos of random lcisted houses, you have to develop a vision for what you want to produce. You don't need to book a video production company to get started. You can shoot from your own phone and edit in programs such as Windows Movie Maker or Mac's iMovie. You won't need to spend thousands of dollars to get the results that you want. Most people enjoy watching quick videos that they can relate to and are extensions of their own reality and lives. You can produce that with your phone on the "steady" mode.

Next, you have to figure out what kind of video you want to shoot. Will it be a simple tour of a home you have just listed or will it be a teaching video? Do you want a theme, a plot, a storyline? There are so many variations for a short film for your business that the idea list is endless! Here are a few ideas for you to think about while writing the story line.

Real estate marketing videos, whether you are a buyers agent or a listing agent (or both), can create a strong brand and body of work.
