Episode 599: From ‘Find Me on Zillow’ to ‘Find Me on Reels’: The 2 Game-Changing Social Hacks That Put Agents on the Map

Social media isn’t just a place to scroll anymore—it’s where buyers, sellers and future referrals discover you. In this quick-hit episode I break down the two biggest shifts reshaping real-estate marketing online and how to turn them into listings: Social as the new discovery engine Home shoppers now type their questions into Instagram Reels, TikTok, YouTube and—even more often—ChatGPT before they ever Google an agent. I show you how to meet them with 60-second, search-friendly videos that answer “How much down payment do I need?” or “Is 2025 a good year to sell in Temecula?” and why a consistent series builds algorithm trust. Social as a community magnet Platforms reward creators who talk with their audience, not at them. Learn how to turn a micro-Facebook group, weekly polls and DMs into a living “digital farm,” then bridge that online rapport to offline events, pop-bys and handwritten notes that seal the relationship. You’ll leave with a four-step playbook: • Pick one discovery format (Reels, Shorts, TikTok) and post weekly • Launch a niche Facebook group around your market or specialty • Engage daily—answer comments, run polls, shout out members • Connect IRL through events, market updates and personal touches Ready to future-proof your brand and get found where clients actually search?
