FAQs

Why aren't my real estate ads generating leads?

Usually it’s not the ads, it’s what happens after the click. The most common culprits are a website that doesn’t convert, no conversion tracking, or targeting that’s bringing in the wrong people. Ads can be doing their job, delivering high-intent traffic at a good cost, while a broken site or missing follow-up quietly loses every lead. The fix starts with finding where the leak actually is.

Should real estate agents hire a marketing agency or a consultant?

It depends on whether you want activity or accountability. Agencies typically sell you a team and assign a junior to run a standard playbook. A consultant gives you one senior strategist who owns your results and tells you the truth about your numbers, usually with fewer clients and more attention. If you’ve been burned by an agency that overspent or went quiet, a hands-on consultant is often the better fit.

How much does real estate marketing cost?

Most real estate marketing engagements run between $1,500 and $5,000+ per month, depending on whether you need strategy, ad management, SEO, or a full system with website rebuild. The bigger question isn’t the price, it’s whether you can see what that spend is actually earning you. A good partner (Like Elysian Launch) ties every dollar to a measurable outcome, so you’re investing, not gambling.

What's a good return on real estate marketing spend?

A healthy real estate marketing return means every dollar you spend is traceable to leads, appointments, or closings, not just clicks and impressions. The exact ratio varies, but the real benchmark is visibility: can you actually see what your marketing earned? Most agents don’t have a return problem so much as a measurement problem, they’re spending without knowing what’s working.
