Where should I use these words in my apartment marketing?
Here’s a few ideas – Craigslist ad titles, ILS descriptions, descriptions of your actual units, describing your amenities, Google and Facebook Ad copy, brochures, postcards, social media posts, construction banners, email blast campaigns – anywhere that you need to replace 1 – 2 dull words with something more powerful.
Example #1: You’re writing a Craigslist ad for a one bedroom corner unit. Your ad title could be something like this:
“Visually Stunning 1 Bedroom Corner Unit Available Now” (I pulled the words “Visually Stunning” and “Now” from the list above)
Example #2: Instead of saying “Luxury Amenities” (which has been overused in the last few years, I doubt it carries much meaning anymore). Let’s replace the word “Luxury” with something new and powerful, “Must Have.” Just a quick word swap spices it up, “Must Have Amenities.”
Example #3: The word “Today” is useful in a call to action: Apply Today, Sign a Lease Today & Get $200 Off.
Example #4: Let’s say you have a community in a hot restaurant district and you want to spice up your web copy. You could have text like this: You’ll love our prime location. Mouth-watering restaurants within walking distance of your doorstep. (Bold words are from the list above).
Anytime you have a boring, generic, non-emotional word describing your apartments – feel free to use the list above to replace them with something more spicy. A good exercise would be to review your collateral and website. Are their generic words that can be replaced with something more powerful?
