If you're a real estate agent and you're not showing up consistently on social media, you're invisible to a large portion of your potential clients before they ever have a chance to meet you. Most of them research online first — they scroll, they follow, they form impressions of agents long before they're ready to make a call.

In Part 1 of this two-part series on social media for realtors, AI Decoded covers the strategy and execution that makes a profile actually work:

- The 50/30/20 content mix: educational, trust, and property content — and why most agents have it backwards

- Instagram's four formats (feed posts, Reels, Stories, Highlights) and what each one does

- How to use Claude to build a monthly content calendar in 15 minutes instead of a few hours

The blank-page problem is the real obstacle to consistency. This episode solves it.
