Emotional connections: Steve Carroll on marketing that captures and holds attention, stands out in the crowd and creates credibility


Listen Later

Effective online marketing doesn’t just stop traffic, it transforms sightseers into sellers and browsers into buyers.

That’s the view of The Agency General Manager of Queensland, Steve Carroll, who is today’s guest on the Elevate podcast, hosted by Samantha McLean.

A digital marketing guru with decades of experience liaising with tech giants such as Google, LinkedIn and Facebook, in this episode, Steve reveals why Boxing Day isn’t just for retail sales but could be a real estate goldmine with your name on it.

He also delves into the art of digital magnetism, explaining his best tips on capturing and maintaining client attention in a world where seconds count.

Steve and Samantha also turn the spotlight on the power of storytelling and how creating an emotional connection can create an unforgettable experience for sellers and buyers alike.

Beyond the marketing mastery, Steve reveals the challenges and victories he’s encountered in 2023, the industry titans he’ll be keeping his eye on in 2024, and why there’s never been a better time than right now for agents to revolutionise their real estate impact.

“Thirty times a week, the average agent gets looked at through their digital assets… That’s 30 opportunities to make a cracking great impression. So what I’d say to the real estate community is, don’t waste that opportunity to make a great first impression. Look at how you display yourself online, and if you just make three or four adjustments as a result of this podcast, then that’s great.” – Steve Carroll
