The estate agency brand and marketing problem

Most estate agents are competing in a local market where their brand and digital presence do not match the quality of their service.

Vendors and landlords evaluating estate agents in a local market form their first impression digitally - from your website, your social media, your portal presence and the visual quality of your property marketing. If your brand and digital presence do not reflect the quality of your service, you are losing instructions before the conversation starts.

A website that was last updated before mobile browsing was standard

A website that does not perform well on mobile, does not load quickly and does not communicate your brand credibly is producing a negative first impression for a significant proportion of your potential clients.

Social media presence that is inconsistent and rarely generates enquiries

Property businesses that post sporadically, with mixed visual quality and no clear brand voice, are missing the consistent local market presence that builds recognition and generates inbound enquiry.

Brand materials that look like they were designed ten years ago

For sale boards, stationery, email signatures, brochures - materials that look dated reduce the perceived quality of your service before a client has spoken to you. Brand investment pays back in every impression you make.

No marketing strategy, just reactive activity

Estate agencies that do not have a clear marketing strategy produce activity without results. Knowing what you want marketing to achieve, and building a plan that delivers it, is what separates agencies that grow from those that stay the same.

How Root Fifty Two works for property businesses

Six service areas that build the brand and digital presence your estate agency needs to compete.

Root Fifty Two combines brand, digital and creative expertise with an understanding of what property businesses need from their marketing - generating instructions, not just impressions.

1

Brand identity and design

Logo, colour palette, typography and the brand standards that ensure every touchpoint - from your for sale boards to your email footer - communicates the same professional identity consistently.

2

Website design and build

A website that performs on mobile, loads quickly, represents your brand credibly and is designed to convert visitors into valuations, viewings and management enquiries.

3

Digital marketing campaigns

Paid social, search and display advertising campaigns targeted at vendors and landlords in your geographic market - with creative that reflects your brand and targeting that reaches people at the right point in their property decision.

4

Social media content and management

Consistent, on-brand social media content that builds your local market presence and generates the recognition and trust that produces inbound enquiries from people who already know your brand.

5

Creative services and copywriting

Photography direction, brochure design, property description copywriting and the full range of creative services that present your properties and your agency at their best.

6

Marketing strategy and planning

A structured marketing plan built around your agency's growth objectives - deciding what you are trying to achieve and building a programme that delivers it consistently.
