The Situation
Owner Kim Hodgskin is a real estate agent in Apollo, FL where the market is very competitive. She needed to list more homes, so she came to PostcardMania for assistance.
The Solution
PostcardMania designers created a postcard for Kim with the following features:
- Pictures of beautiful homes that Kim sold in the area, which increases the prospect’s trust in the business
- A fun and bright spring theme that attracts the recipient’s eye to the central message — real estate opportunities
- Market statistics that show the realtor is informed and experienced
Over the course of 2021, we mailed 2,000 6” x 8.5” postcards to all residents within a specific radius of Apollo Beach. One design (as shown above) was sent out in March and had an Easter theme, while the other postcard went out in July and had a 4th of July theme.
The Results
She was able to list 7 houses because of the postcards!
Kim listed 7 houses because of the postcards! On average, the homes she lists sell between $600,000 and $1,000,000. Since realtors in Florida make an average of 5% commission on home sales, that amounts to a profit of roughly $30,000 on the low end, and $50,000 on the high end.
With 7 home sales, that equals a total of $210,000 or more! Since Kim spent only $669 on the mailers, that amounts to a potential ROI of about 31,290%!
