Day 2 – Build a Local Community on Facebook (to get more Real Estate Business)

This is Day 2 of my quest to use real estate social media to build a local community on Facebook that I can later leverage to drive more real estate business.

One Day 1 I set up the Niwot Fan Page on Facebook. One of the main features of the page is video so I decided to use video to promote the Fan Page and encourage the local community to join and participate in the site. Every visitor to the site is encouraged to submit a 12 second video about “Why I Love Niwot…” At the end of each week I’ll award a prize to the best videos. The prizes will all be donated by local business owners and are each worth about $25.

Here’s the sample video that I shot:

    I really like how at the bottom of the video screens you have a snap shot of other videos and a title. This would really help to get people to look at more of the videos. Would love to know how to do it. Have you posted anything as to how this is done?
