Animate Your Relocating Buyers’ Interest with Animoto
I specialize in relocation, as a niche market, in part because I enjoy it, but also because I’ve made 4 major moves (over 1000 miles) with kids, cars, cats, dogs, and 2 jobs, so I know how to do it well.
I’ve also worked on relocation from a corporate perspective – setting up relocation programs, relocating employees in and out, and have used a couple of corporate relocation programs through my wife’s former companies when we moved to and from Minnesota. I get it.
But the point of my thinking here is generating interest and enthusiasm with your buyers who are relocating to your area. And using Animoto to create that enthusiasm and interest.
I’ve shared a recent slide show about Cardiff-by-the-Sea that I created in Animoto below. There are several great uses of this “video”.

Share it via email or send the link to a buyer who is relocating to give them an overall visual perspective on the area. This will say far more than you can ever say in words in just 20 – 30 photos, and if they know little or nothing of the area, this will tell the story they want to hear. And it demonstrates your knowledge of the area.
If you don’t already have photos in your database for the community or neighborhood, spend 30 minutes one day taking a bunch of photos. I now have about 10,000 photos of various communities, neighborhoods, complexes and so much more that I can use for creating slide shows, and of course using in Localism posts.
But don’t just think of this Animoto slide show as unique to that buyer. Once you have the slide show (it acts sorta like a video but isn’t) you can use it for others who are relocating without making any changes. But if you want to add or delete some pics, or add more text, it’s simple to do in just a few minutes.
Post your slide shows on community pages on your Wordpress website. And be sure to put them on YouTube, with keyword descriptions and an appropriate website you want viewers to visit.
Use your community Animoto shows for your listings, and be sure to show a prospective seller the show that you will use to help market their home!
Use your slideshows in your posts about the larger community, and in any Localism posts that relate to the community that you create (a restaurant, things to do, market reports).
I expect you can think of some other uses, as can I. Animoto gives you the option to include a clickable URL link (button) at the end (for the Pro version) – I suggest you do so.
Have fun and be creative!
