Custom Headers Create Brand Recognition!

Not only do headers help your ad to look visually appealing and professional, but they also create brand recognition.

The same or similar header should be used on all your web-based advertising vehicles such as your website, your monthly e-mails, and your Craigslist ads.

Icon can help create individual headers, but we can also use pre-existing headers from your website or otherwise if the agent chooses to do so. A few made up examples can be seen below.

Attract More Clients with High Quality Service Ads!

Icon has solutions for Agents looking to advertise their listing/buyer representation services on Craigslist!

Craigslist is a FANTASTIC way to attract new clients whether an agent is looking for properties to list, or buyers to represent.

Every client wants to work with a knowledgeable, reputable, and ambitious realtor, and Icon has solutions that can communicate these attributes to perspective clients.

The service advertisements that Icon generates are customizable and can include anything from pictures of recently sold houses (below), to monthly housing statistics, interest rates news, or any other insider knowledge that can be used to sell the realtor as knowledgeable and reputable.

Service advertisements are a great way to find leads and should be used by every realtor!

We Have Many Different Levels of Service!

Icon Marketing has a number of different solutions for creating Real Estate Craigslist advertisements. Since different realtors have different practices, preferences, and procedures when making advertisements, Icon has developed flexible services to cater to these differences.

When considering photos, Icon is available to come on site and take all the pictures necessary to make a descriptive and visually appealing advertisement. However, some realtors prefer to take their own pictures or use those of a specialist in advertisements, which is absolutely fine because these photos can just as easily be used in the Craigslist ad. Icon is prepared to gather all relevant information and visuals for a site (full service), but is also prepared to work out custom and individual procedures with each realtor who may have unique preferences. Also note that Icon has a large picture bank of local amenities including malls, parks, beaches, and schools located throughout the South Surrey region.

Not only will each advertisement contain an abundance of photographs, but there will also be written descriptions accompanying these galleries. We have a number of ways to efficiently create written descriptions to the liking of the realtor.

Icon knows that many Realtors are very adamant about using certain adjectives and nouns when describing a listing in an advertisement. Icon provides a full range of options when considering this scenario. Firstly, in the situation that the Realtor does not feel the need to be involved in the ad generation process, Icon is able to generate full written descriptions of all necessary areas of the area and property. On the other side of the spectrum, if the Realtor has high preferences for certain descriptive words, one of the options available is the use of a voice recorder, which would be used as follows: The Realtor does a walk through of the property, verbally describing the listing using all their favourite selling words, and Icon will incorporate these phrases or statements directly into the advertisement. There are also other options to facilitate this descriptive process, flexible to any and all personal preferences.

Four Pictures Just isn't Enough!

Craigslist allows only four pictures to be uploaded per advertisment, which is obviously insufficient when listing any sort of property. By designing each ad like a web page, we can construct the type of picture galleries that are necessary to show the viewer the full benefits of the property.

Icon Marketing does everything possible to provide quality advertisments, which includes coming to each property site and taking all the photos necassary to make an extensive ad. Here we see an advertisment for a large home in Ocean Park, which is organized into different sections based on each functional area of the property.

Use the Location to Sell the Property!

Many properties in the White Rock/South Surrey/Surrey area in close proximity to beaches, parks, schools, and retail shopping centers. These features are valuable to home owners and should be used as selling points when listing a property on Craigslist.

Here we see an advertisment for an apartment located in the Grandview Corners area of South Surrey. The advertisment has an entire section dedicated to highlighting the surrounding area, complete with written descripton and extensive visuals. Presenting in-depth information about the most desirable features of a property helps us create more interest for the listing and helps attract more leads.
