7 Clever Postcard Ideas For Halloween

Question: Have you seen the postcards most agents send out?

BOOOR-ING!

I’m pretty sure they make the prospects sleep-walk on their way back inside the house.

It’s not your fault, though. There’s simply not much to choose from if you’re an agent…

…at least not if you want to give your prospects a punch of personality (and actually keep them awake and attentive to your message).

Until now.

Now’s the time to separate yourself from the competition. Just check out this collection of Halloween postcards we’re now offering…

1.

Postcard Marketing Tip #1: Don’t be boring. Ever notice how the vast majority of postcards look exactly like advertisements? Some work, some don’t, but if you want to dramatically increase your response rate you should incorporate some levity! Which is exactly where we come in. 🙂

Postcard Marketing Tip #2: Intrigue, don’t close. Your postcard should create interest to motivate your prospects to take the next step in the process (which is to call you)… not try to close a sale right away. In other words: Don’t get too wordy and / or promotional. It’s still a postcard, after all, not a novel.

Postcard Marketing Tip #3: Keep it light. For these postcards, you might want to say something like: “Buying or selling a home might seem scary, but don’t get spooked! I’m batty about real estate, and I can help you! Call me if you’re ready to buy a boo-tiful new home (or to sell your current one)! Happy Halloween!”

4.

Postcard Marketing Tip #4: Postcards are great for carrying timely messages, so think in timely terms. For this reason, Halloween is the perfect time to send a postcard!

5.

Postcard Marketing Tip #5: Go for high-quality, full-color, glossy printing. These have the most impact. All postcard marketing services offer this, and improved technology has brought down costs.

Postcard Marketing Tip #6: Avoid Monday deliveries. It’s usually the biggest mail delivery day of the week, and you might get lost in the shuffle. Don’t even think about sending postcards between Friday and Sunday because people are in “weekend mode.” Delivery between Tuesday and Thursday is optimum.

7.

Postcard Marketing Tip #7: Size matters. Your oversized postcard will help to differentiate itself from the crowd for about a 10th of a second. This 10th of a second is a vital key to the success of your mailing campaign.
