Don't fool yourself. Even if you are a single agent, working for yourself, you still have a brand. Your brand is more than just your image – it is people's perception of your image, of you, of your business, your credentials, your reputation – you get the idea. As social media takes a stronghold on the world of branding and marketing, we are learning newer and better ways to use it to our advantage. Let's talk about how you can use Twitter to build your brand recognition.
You may want to sit down and map out a brand strategy. Do a bit of Google research or play around on HootSuite (after setting up a free account, of course), and work out ways other people are building brand awareness through social media. See what catches your eye and what you personally find attractive, endearing or smart. Twitter can also be a great platform to promote open houses and other home events.
Twitter can be instrumental in building brand recognition, because it operates in real time and has tremendous reach. You don't have to be someone's "friend" or "connection" to start a conversation. Using hashtags and Twitter Chat gives you – and anyone – the chance to be in on the conversation. This is where the real connections get made.
Make sure others will want to know you by updating your Twitter photo and bio. Be approachable, include an interesting fact or two about yourself or your business, say what you like to talk about, and use a great picture (don't be the egg!).
