"Hello, I'm Frank Klesitz with Vyral Real Estate and I'd like to show you a few examples of homes which were listed on the MLS with another agent, expired, then I took the listing and sold. For example here I am in front of 123 Elm Street who was listed with a local broker for 6 months, then I took the listing and sold it in 3 weeks for 97% of the list price. And here I am in front of another home, etc, etc, etc (try to get yourself in front of 5-6 homes OR just talk about the homes and we'll cut to B-Roll of pictures of the properties you describe). So, as you can see I have experience selling homes which did not sell with other agents. I invite you to call me as I can do the same for you.

Step #3 - Day 6 Email Subject: Why Even Hire a Real Estate Agent? Video Title: How do top agents find buyers for sellers? (example) Attachment: How Do Agents Find Buyers and Sell Homes (Mike Ferry) Dear FNAME:, That's right; why hire a real estate agent to sell your home? I'm sure you've thought about selling your home by owner (FSBO). And why not? There's no commission to pay! The fact is, your next real estate agent must be highly skilled at finding QUALIFIED buyers for your property; and with more buyers (and offers), the higher your selling price. But how does an agent find these buyers? Why pay a commission? Click Here To See How Top Agents Find Buyers Give me a call and I'll introduce you to my happy past clients. I'd appreciate the opportunity to sell your home - may we schedule an appointment to meet?
Agent Name "Hey there again, it's been about a week since my first video. Now, I'd be as skeptical as you - before I started in real estate I only saw real estate agents stick signs in the yard and list a home on the MLS. I would never pay a commission for that, and sadly, that's what most real estate agents do. Very few are educated or skilled in the art and science of buyer lead generation. But what exactly does a real estate agent do to generate these buyer leads? Well, there are two types of real estate agents - passive and active. Passive agents sit back and wait for buyers to come to them (you know, stick that sign in the yard), while active agents perform very specific activities. So, below I've included an article about this written by my real estate coach Mike Ferry, and in case you don't know who he is, he's arguably the most influential person in real estate who has the best track record of getting homes sold. So check out the report and you'll learn exactly what active agents, such as myself, do to proactively find buyers for listings. And of course, if you'd like me to actively market for you, just give me a call."

(example) Attachment: Link to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sifypqjyhv8
Dear FNAME:, Social media video marketing is the future of marketing real estate. Buyers go online to research homes - video is 53x more likely to show up in your buyer's search results. So, I'll make a video tour of your home and put it online. I'll email your home video to everyone I know; but here's my powerful secret - we'll post my home video on your Facebook for double exposure! Click Here To Learn How I'll Market Your Home with Video These strategies produce quick results - call me and I'll show you how I'll use the latest technology to find qualified buyers for your property. Agent Name "That's right - you can see I LOVE video for marketing. Here's why - as I said in my email, very few people have made videos optimized for local real estate keywords, so video is more likely to show up in buyer search results. There are countless webpages competing for buyer traffic, however with YouTube being the second largest search engine in the world, I'm making videos to build an audience of buyers who visit my website for up to date information. Why is that important to you? We'll that's where I put your listing, right on my website that buyers frequent for this latest information. Now that's not all, I send emails to my entire database of contacts frequently - all the friends, family, past clients, and movers and shakers who can afford to make a generous offer on your home. Oh, but there is more. If I really like your listing, I'll even make a video tour of it. Here's why - buyers type in your address into Google for research, and I can
virtually GUARANTEE my video of your listing will be #1 in Google search results because no one else is competing on the keyword term of your specific address (did you know video shows up in Google searches now?) Anyway, that's only the tip of the iceberg, so I want to pass along a video about the explosion of social media and a video that opened my eyes to the POWER of digital marketing to magnetically attract buyers to your listing, so check out the video link below. And of course, if you want to learn more about how I'll use video to sell your home, call me. What I do with video is unique, and no other agent has the ability to offer you this power.

(example) Attachment: Link to http://www.wikihow.com/stage-your-home-for-a-sale Dear FNAME, Is your home 'staged' for buyer psychology? If there's one reason your home hasn't sold, it's because your past agent did not stage your home properly for current buyer preferences. Staging includes furniture, lighting, landscaping, colors - and yes, even aromas.
I know how to manipulate the environment to make buyers fall in love with your home - and make a higher-priced emotional offer.

Agent Name "Alright I'm going to let you in on a little real estate secret - top agents can find buyers to get showings for your listing, however it takes a real estate marketing ninja to get that buyer to make a high offer. Let me explain, it's one thing to show your property, yet it's another to get your buyer to fall emotionally in love with your home so they make an emotional, higher priced offer. Yes, there is a sneaky way to do this, and it's called 'staging' - it's the lingo we use in real estate to prepare a home for showing. In short, we're selling a lifestyle - do not forget that. Some people expect an urban, hip feel while others want a traditional, majestic feel to their home. Either way, top agents know how to sell a lifestyle by manipulating the paint, furniture, decoration, pictures, and just about anything else to project an aspirational image. Below I have an article for you on how to stage a property, but I also have some tricks up my sleeve to sell the lifestyle buyers want in your local neighborhood. I know what motivates local buyers!

But that's okay, you're busy and I fully understand. I'd be skeptical, too! You may want to take your home off the market and wait to sell it again.

Here's the deal - no one can predict the future, but over the years of being in real estate I can put my poker chips on making an educated bet on future trends. What trends? Our local MLS and a few appraisal firms put out regular reports of what's happening in the market, such as if home sales are up or down, how many homes are on the market, how long homes stay on the market, etc. Now, I'd like to pass along this information for you - simply click the link below and I'll redirect you to find these updated statistics.

But that's not always the case and there are exceptions. So if you're not sure, call me. I'll help you make a decision that's right for you because I NEVER want to take your listing knowing in hindsight if we waited we may have sold it for more!
