Perform a Digital Marketing Audit for Your Real Estate Business

One of the most important pieces in analyzing your digital marketing performance is to conduct a quarterly or yearly audit. But what numbers should you be looking at, and how do you successfully perform a digital marketing audit for your real estate business? Keep reading, friends!

Getting Started with a Digital Marketing Audit for Your Real Estate Business

To start, it’s important to go back to the goals you set at the beginning of the year and remind yourself of what you were hoping to achieve. Too often, we just look at the numbers, but in reality, what you should be assessing are the goals you started out with and any additional bonuses that happened along the way.

What were your digital marketing goals for 2020? They were likely a combo of these:

• Grow your audience
• Engage more of your audience
• Increase website traffic
• Sell more product
• Increase your email open rate
• Build your email list
• Generate leads for your business
• Increase website opt-ins
• Increase blog traffic

From here, you’ll need to dissect the numbers to see if you achieved your goals. A digital marketing audit for your real estate business can help you determine where you went right and where you can do better next year. If you’re not running ads, it’s really about evaluating what you get out of your efforts versus the time you put into running your marketing or the money you spend to have someone running it for you.
