From Data to Decisions: Using Real Estate Analytics to Guide Strategic Marketing Investments
Are you making informed decisions with your real estate marketing investment? Real estate analytics are essential to marketing success on every level and should be among your most powerful tools to ensure that you're investing wisely. Reporting analytics allow you to understand what's working more deeply, what could be working better, and which marketing tactics resonate most with your audience, all backed by dependable, actionable data.
If you want to extract maximum value from real estate analytics in a seamless way, you need to have the right tools for the job. This starts with a real estate CRM like DeltaNET, which both gathers the data you need from all of your marketing activities and presents detailed, easy-to-digest data on which to base your decisions. What you learn from analytics can help you decide which marketing tactics to prioritize, choose how much to invest in each, and optimize your marketing to suit your target audience.
Essential Marketing Tools to Consider
Some marketing tactics fit naturally with analytics, both in terms of providing ample data and being customizable based on what you learn. These marketing tools and tactics are especially good fits for real estate analytics:
-
Search Engine Optimization (SEO)
The success of any search engine optimization (SEO) strategy depends on data. Which keywords are your audience using to search for homes and real estate advice in your area? How often are they using those terms, and how does search engine use evolve over time? Integrating SEO into your website and content is essential for marketing success. In addition to helping you understand the results of your SEO efforts, analytics are key to the planning process. Search engine data is readily available, and diving into popular keywords can help you tailor your content to maximize your audience while driving more traffic to your real estate website. -
Targeted Ads and PPC Marketing
Digital advertising is another natural fit for analytics and data-based decision making. When you invest in advertising, don't you want to know who's clicking, which ads are working best, and how to tailor your advertising to suit your desired audience? Whether you're creating targeted ads through our AdWizard or integrating PPC marketing, analytics are sure to be a huge help. Advertising is also a great example of how analytics can help you see when something's not working as well as you'd like, and allow you to more quickly pivot your investment toward the best strategies based on actionable data. -
Social Media Marketing
Some of your digital advertising is probably taking place on social media, but that's likely far from your only marketing activity on social platforms. Given the time investment that's often required for successful social media marketing, any tool that saves time and enhances results is a must-have. Analytics can tell you more about which of your social marketing tactics are working, and in which areas you may be able to invest your time more wisely. You don't need to be a practiced influencer for social media success – you just need the right tools and the right data.
Making Practical Use of Real Estate Analytics Data
While you can absolutely drill down to minute details with analytics, diving in that deep can make the whole process feel overwhelming when you're first getting started. So it helps to start with some key, easy-to-digest data points that shed more light on the overall success of individual marketing tactics.
For any marketing tactic, one of the first questions you'll want answered is: How many leads is it generating? With an understanding of how many leads a tactic is generating as well as the cost, you can get a strong idea of the cost per lead of any marketing tactic or tool. This data fits naturally with conversion rates, or how effectively your marketing is converting leads into clients.
There's also different data to dive into, depending on the marketing tactic. Tracking engagement is essential for social media marketing. Click-through and conversion rates can shed light on your email marketing success. The same goes for digital ads. In the end, whichever marketing tools you're using, you want those tools backed by analytics in order to maximize your ROI.
