Email Marketing Templates For The Real Estate Industry

Email Marketing Templates For The Real Estate Industry

Email marketing is a tried and trusted channel for real estate agents, like in so many other industries. It offers a measurable return on investment with the right approach. As a cost-effective means to reach more clients and potential clients, you too can use email to convert leads and keep client communications running smoothly. These templates will help you do just that.

Real estate agents would be making a mistake not to utilize email for marketing and client communication at every stage of the sales funnel, from first contact to a post-sales follow-up.

Consider the fact that real estate enjoys an email open rate of 28.33%, according to stats from Constant Contact, which is much higher than many other industries, and means that nearly one in three recipients, on average, will be receptive to your email marketing efforts.

The beauty of email is the ability to scale up your marketing and communication using automation, and the ability to segment your database to ensure every client receives messages tailored to their stage in the sales journey, both for homebuyers and sellers.
