Marketing Advertising Program
Unless we rent our vacancies, they not only fail to produce an
income, but represent an expense and liability. So, we've developed a marketing
program that produces results. Here's what we do....
- Newspaper - We have lots of other means to advertise, but the
newspaper is still read by much of the house-hunting population. So, we use it, but
sparingly. Like any business, we operate on a budget. If we spend it all on
the newspaper, there's less to go around to other, more productive media. But, by
adding a single line to all of our newspaper ads, we've greatly increased
results...."see this and other homes at www.mmirentals.com". Most
of our newspaper advertising is in the Washington Post.
- MRIS® - The Metropolitan Regional Information
System is a Multiple List System serving in
some 30 counties and 4 states. This system takes sales and rental listings. Listings are placed on the National Association of REALTORS
website. Through MRIS, our listings are promoted on several other Internet
homes sites.
- MMIRENTALS.COM - Our pride and joy! We
believe this site is one of the best in the area.. and getting better every day. And
the public thinks so too. Already this year, we've had more than twice as many hits
as in the previous year, and the number is growing rapidly. And, they're not just
hits, we get responses, lots of them. Web responses are treated as call-ins and are
given to duty agents for reply. We invite you to browse our site.. see what it has
to offer.. come back frequently!
- MMI Real Estate Investors Society (REIS) - REIS is a membership
organization founded by MMI in 2006 for the purposes of educating investors
and potential investors, forming a network of investors, Realtors and
service providers and developing an vehicle for investors to pool money for
the purchase of investment real estate. MMI associates are encouraged to
attend the these meetings to meet the movers and shakers of the local rental
real estate market. Find-out more at mmirentals.com/reis.
- RentalHomes.com - All of our rental listings are promoted on the
Rental Homes national search site where calls are directed to the listing agent.
The
company pays for this service.
- YELLOW PAGES - Our highly productive yellow pages ad draws the
non-Internet client
- Maryland Association of REALTORS Conference in Ocean City - In
2006, MMI became the first property management company to ever take a booth
at this show. It was such a smash hit that we have already signed-up for
2008--see us at booth 96!
- GOOGLE - We advertise on Google and pay for each click to cause our
name to come-up near the front of each search.
- REFERRALS - Our highly successful Listings in the Bank Program draw
agent to us as their "Partner for Better Client Service."
Agent refer clients for property management and we have now added an extra
incentive: a trip for two to Mexico!
