Staying top-of-mind in 2025 means showing up—online and in person. Build authentic relationships and keep your brand front and center with consistent, multi-channel engagement.

 

In 2025, visibility alone won't keep you competitive. With the average consumer bombarded by thousands of marketing messages per day, Realtors® must go beyond simply being seen. You need to be remembered. Whether you work in a booming metro market or a smaller town, the agents who consistently win listings and referrals are those who stay top-of-mind all year long.

Let’s start building your brand, growing your pipeline, and generating more high-quality leads with the full-service support of AmericasBestMarketing.com.

Why Staying Top-of-Mind Is a Competitive Advantage in 2025

Your Competition Isn’t Waiting, and Neither Should You

According to the National Association of Realtors®, the majority of buyers and sellers—often upwards of 70%—choose to work with the first real estate agent they speak with. If you aren’t consistently visible across your database, community, and digital platforms, your competitors will be.

Realtors® Relying on Repeat and Referral Business Win More Often

The most successful real estate agents don’t spend their days cold-calling or buying leads. They build a brand that people remember. They cultivate client relationships and foster word-of-mouth referrals.

The Foundation of a Top-of-Mind Real Estate Marketing Strategy

Consistency Is the Engine. Multi-Channel Marketing Is the Vehicle.

A strategic real estate marketing plan in 2025 should include:

  • Branded, platform-optimized social media content

  • Targeted email marketing campaigns

  • Direct mail postcards and neighborhood newsletters

  • Local event marketing and business collaborations

  • Retargeting ads and digital remarketing

  • IDX-integrated real estate websites

  • Ongoing strategic coaching and review

Each channel should support and reinforce the others, creating a seamless, omnipresent brand.

1. Social Media Posting That Keeps You Visible

Weekly Branded Content Builds Recognition and Familiarity

Your Sphere of Influence (SOI) and followers need regular, relevant reminders that you’re in the business. Inconsistent or off-brand posts weaken your credibility.

What to post:

  • Just Listed / Just Sold graphics

  • Market updates and local stats

  • Homeowner tips

  • Community events and partnerships

  • Personal milestones and testimonials

Expert Tip: Use animated graphics and platform-specific formats to capture more attention in busy feeds.

2. Email Marketing That Nurtures and Converts

Email Is Still the Most Direct Line to Your Clients

Unlike social media, you own your email list. Use it to provide real value and remind your database that you're here to help.

What to send:

  • Monthly eNewsletters

  • Personalized SOI check-ins

  • Holiday and home maintenance reminders

  • Market recaps and listing announcements

PRO TIP: Segment your database by past clients, hot leads, and sphere. Tailored messages convert better and keep you relevant.

3. Direct Mail That Delivers Local Impact

Print Is Tangible, Targeted, and Trusted

Direct mail continues to outperform many digital channels for geographic farming and brand reinforcement. People read what arrives in their mailbox—especially when it’s relevant to their neighborhood.

Best Practices:

  • Send monthly postcards with market insights

  • Include branding and contact info on every piece

  • Rotate between Just Listed/Just Sold, home tips, and neighborhood data

Expert Tip: Consistency is key. Mailing quarterly or monthly builds recognition over time.

4. Local Events and Community Presence

Real Connection Happens in Real Life

Attending or hosting events puts your face to the brand. It humanizes your business and creates memorable experiences.

Ideas:

  • Host first-time homebuyer workshops

  • Sponsor local school events or sports teams

  • Co-host events with local lenders or vendors

  • Organize community clean-up days

Callout Box: INLINE STRATEGY TIP: Post photos and videos from events on social media and tag attendees. It increases visibility and gives people a reason to engage with you online afterward.

5. Digital Retargeting Ads That Keep You in Front of Prospects

Stay Present Long After They Visit Your Website or Click Your Emails

Digital retargeting helps ensure you're always top-of-mind—even after they leave your site. Done right, it keeps your brand in view without being intrusive.

What to include in your ad strategy:

  • Website visitor retargeting

  • Custom audience targeting (e.g., past clients)

  • Visual consistency across all ads

  • IDX-powered listing search

  • Blog with local real estate insights
