Back in 2006 I used a web site to help the agent sell a rural property. Now I’m doing it again, picking up on what these guys have done, to help sell a Mount Eliza unit using both a web site and social media. See http://www.mountelizaunit.com.au It will be interesting to see what happens.

We’ve only had the web site http://www.mountelizaunit.com.au and the Twitter, Facebook and YouTube social media campaign running for a week, but have had encouraging results already. Today’s open for inspection had three times the number of groups through as earlier ones.
Social media done right will help real estate agents sell for their clients. But the danger is that most agents will do a very ordinary job of it and turn people away. And that could ruin it for everyone.

On Friday, we added a QR Code to the display board in front of the Mount Eliza unit, linking through to the blog. The results have been well beyond my expectations. See http://www.mountelizaunit.com.au/mount-eliza-unit-qr-code/
