The day and age of ametuer videographers has arrived. No, I am not talking about celebrity videos, ick....I am talking about creating a video to help sell your house. With the advent of the smartphone, if you are not taking videos with any of the apps available to you, there is a hole in your sales strategy.
I know of Vine, an app owned by Twitter, that allows you to take a 6 second video. What can be captured in 6 seconds, A LOT! If you need more time for your video, Instagram, owned by Facebook, allows up to 15 seconds of video. Still if you need more time, want some cool background music, you can go with Videolicious who will allow you to edit, add licensed music, and create great videos.
You may be asking, "This sounds great Liz, but what do I do with my videos after I create them?" Well, you go to YouTube, create an account there and start adding your videos. You can then link to them on Facebook, Linkedin, Twitter and any of the sites that you use for sales, Zillow, Trulia, Movoto, Yelp, anywhere that you get impressions.
Video is another bullet in your gun. You need video to help you get through to people who watch TV shows on their smartphones or who watch more video than they look at static pictures. Video is the new way of selling. Get out there, take some videos, and start getting better with your sales program in Real Estate.
