Open House Events Experience: Drive Attendance and Close More Deals

Introduction

David and Sharon, both multifamily marketers, met at a multifamily conference where they delved into a discussion about the hurdles of their profession.

Just as they were really getting deep into the topic, a look of panic washed over David’s face. He suddenly remembered that he had to put together an open house event for a new construction.

Let’s take a closer look at the common roadblocks faced by David and other marketers:

Burdened by Busy Schedules

As a busy marketer, David struggled to find the time to effectively plan and execute open house events while juggling multiple clients and appointments. This challenge is not unique to David, as many real estate marketers have jam-packed schedules that can make it difficult to allocate the necessary time and resources to a successful open house event.

Low Attendance Blues

Despite David’s best efforts to market the open house event, attendance remains low, leaving him feeling demotivated and questioning the effectiveness of his marketing strategy. This is a common challenge faced by marketers where even a well-planned and marketed open house event may struggle to attract a substantial number of prospects. In this case, a Humans + AI approach to event marketing can boost attendance and attract ideal prospects.

Lack of Proper Tools

During their conversation, David expressed his concerns about the challenges of managing guest lists and following up with prospects after the open house event. These tasks can be time-consuming and inefficient without proper tools.

Empathizing with David’s distress, Sharon shared a solution – Journey AI Events’ Open House Experience, that helped her overcome similar challenges in the past.

Sharon continues to explain how Journey AI Events benefits marketers, agents, and prospects and helps to host a successful open house.
