Harnessing Viral Real Estate Marketing with MySpace

by Dr. Matthew Loop

Alright, some of you are probably wondering, “What the heck is viral marketing?” Let me clear something up fast. “Viral marketing” is in no way related to a computer virus. On the contrary, this term is referring to a marketing plan which propagates like a virus. Simply put, from one person to the next at high speed.

It’s also known as buzz marketing, using its smart tactics to create a huge “buzz” among social networks online. Real estate investors especially, like agents, brokers, and the like, have harnessed the power of viral marketing. It’s time for you to be in on the secret.

Let me give you a clear example. Picture sending an email, message or bulletin about one aspect of real estate to 100 people, and 15 of those 100 send it to 100 more, and 15 of those folks send it to 100 more and so on and so forth, until you have reached hundreds of thousands.

This is the very genius behind viral marketing. It’s about getting your message out to exponentially more people than you ever could have by conventional means. It seems sneaky, but you can basically target prospects that will then be converted to your message and begin to promote it.

The key way of doing this is by tapping into the massive popularity of online games, videos, graphics, and the like on social media powerhouse sites like MySpace to create a huge base of online friends and members.

Take advantage of this viral approach when you send out any messages, bulletins, comments and blogs into the market. My training series is comprised of 30 easy-to-follow videos that will take you step by step to your own success in real estate, chiropractic practice, network marketers and so many more.

I can’t stand to see another real estate marketer make another whopping mistake on MySpace, but it happens more than you can imagine. This can greatly hinder your future growth. Don’t make your profile look like a big promo ad, glaring in everyone’s face. Not only will it look like Spam and people will be turned off by it, but MySpace might just pull your profile for unregulated solicitation.

And not only that, but MySpace will erase your account so that you can’t participate in the network at all if you just look like a cheap solicitor. You simply want your profile to draw a huge friend list, in the easiest, timeliest way possible. Then you can market to your friends softly.
