If your business is focused on ready-made or used real estate, you can measure how many people ask for information through ads on social media networks. Apart from this, anything can be measured: how many brokers are acting, how many returns and indications are there, how many spontaneous visitsare there. Anything that generates number can be measured in a real estate, which can be presented to increase the credibility and reputation of your real estate property.

With data and information collected daily through digital tools, you will be able to know each broker in detail and thus have reasons to hold meetings with the team as well as individuals if you deem it necessary.
Thus, it will be easy to understand how many visits and how many sales your brokers have performed in a given period. This data can in turn help you to make necessary decisions for improving customer service and your business reputation.

Even so, there are still real estate agents or even freelance brokers who believe that the disclosure process ends after a website gets ready, an email marketing campaign is triggered or the advertisement is published.
But on the contrary, you will only reap the rewards of your effort when you can interpret the behavior of your customers by browsing your social media andwebsite. It is possible to understand the number of visits daily, weekly and even real-time visitors, the average number of pages visited, which is the most viewed property, the city where the greatest number of hits comes from and more.
You can use all this data to improve your processes and response rates on social media platforms along with targeted postings and content publishing. This will enhance your reputation in terms of managing the business effectively and efficiently online.

By targeting your investment to digital media, you will be able to understand and measure the outcome of each of your ads, understand the return on the value invested, and thus conduct more targeted campaigns as well.
