As a real estate agent, your relationships are the heart of your business and maintaining meaningful connections with clients can be the difference between a one-time transaction and a lifelong partnership. This is where the handwritten note comes to the forefront.
5 Ways Personalized Notes Make a Difference
You know the importance of follow-up and closing gifts with your clients; but do you realize the power of handwritten notes throughout the client journey can truly set you apart. Before you roll your eyes, and make a heavy sigh about snail mail, take a moment to consider the 5 ways handwritten notes matter more than ever:
1. It’s Personal: Popping by to visit a client at home or work is a nice gesture, but a handwritten note after the “pop-by” makes it personal. It shows that you’ve taken the time to think specifically about your client, setting you apart from the impersonal touch of mass marketing.
2. How Deep Is Your Love: Clients appreciate the extra effort of a handwritten note. It conveys authenticity and thoughtfulness, reminding them that you’re not just their agent—you’re someone who cares about their well-being and success.
3. Stay Above the Fray: A handwritten note is often cherished and kept, unlike a generic promotional item or a piece of swag. When your clients see your note on their desk or refrigerator, it’s a subtle reminder of the positive experiences they’ve had with you.
4. Creates Emotional Connection: A well-crafted message can evoke positive emotions, creating a sense of warmth and connection. These feelings can be powerful drivers of client loyalty and advocacy.
5. Differentiates You From the Competition: In an industry where many agents rely on digital communications, a handwritten note stands out. It’s a tangible reminder of your commitment to personalized service.
