How about a brief rundown of the cost of marketing a $750,000 home in a good community, good schools, low crime...etc.

[Vision]

The marketing cost of any listing should be 10%. How can that money be spent?

TV ads
Home buyer ads
News paper ads
Open Houses
Fliers in community and top agents in area
Economically based marketing(mass faxing, contacts to those who are in that market)
Appraisals
Nationwide advertising(for high end homes)
Internet sites(can be very expensive)
Direct mail
Professional virtual tour
Professional staging

Basically if there is a way I can find to get the message out in an effective manner, I'm gonna do it. That's a major part of the job, getting the home in front of as many eyes as possible, driving up the interest.
