If you’ve ever thought creating a standout social media profile was all too hard and required time you don’t have, this is the podcast for you.

Our guest on this Elevate episode is Katie Lance - one of the industry’s best known social media experts, who also happens to be considered one of the most influential people in real estate by Inman News.

Specialising in social media for real estate, Katie works with agents to define and create their social media strategy. 

She shares a wealth of great tips on doing just that in a podcast that’s packed full of tools and ideas you can use right now to build and maintain a standout profile.

From content ideas, to building communities, using video and finding ways to provide real value to your audience, Katie covers it all in a way that’s easy to understand, actionable and remains cognisant of the fact your real job is real estate but social media is an invaluable tool.

She also addresses those big social media questions like what platform, how often, and what content while providing some awesome advice on overcoming common fears like going live with video.

“As an agent, you shouldn't be spending all your time on Facebook or anywhere on social media. You know, you’re a real estate professional. So how can you make the most of your time and avoid the time suck and just be really efficient and be really intentional?” Katie Lance.
