Strategy #9 - Growing Your Rent Roll with Letterbox Flyers and Door Hangers (8 minutes)

A well-crafted ‘call to action’ (CTA) is key to converting interest into leads. Your CTA should invite people to engage without making them feel pressured. Here are two effective CTAs:

1. “Do you know anyone looking to move?” – This question encourages neighbours to think about friends or family who may be seeking a rental, potentially generating tenant leads.

2. “Would you like a free rental appraisal?” – This is designed to attract property owners who may be curious about the rental potential of their property.

These prompts encourage curiosity, enabling potential clients to reach out with confidence.

Adding a personal touch through door-to-door distribution can make your flyer distribution even more effective in certain areas.

This approach allows you to connect face-to-face with local residents. Here’s a sample script to use:

[Script] “Hi there! I’m [Your Name] from [Your Agency]. We wanted to let you know that we’ve recently listed a property nearby, and you may notice increased traffic as people come to view it.

If you’re interested, I’d be happy to update you on rental trends in the area.”

This personal outreach demonstrates genuine interest and helps keep your agency at the forefront of your clients' minds.

Always gauge whether door-knocking suits your area based on local customs and laws.​

Once you’ve rented a property, notify the same neighbours. This consistent update on your progress helps build brand recognition and showcases your ability to deliver results.

There’s always that one person in the street who knows everybody, and they’re always watching everything that’s going on.

This person is your ideal target to turn into a BDM and raving fan for you.

You are showcasing that your company is a proactive one in finding the best suitable tenants for the area, and inviting them to view how you market the properties to attract the best possible tenants.

Here’s how you might approach it:

Example Follow-Up Flyer

[Script] “This property was leased in [X] days, saving our clients $[Amount]. Contact us to learn how we can help you get the best return on your investment.”

These updates position your agency as reliable and effective, establishing trust with potential future clients.

To get these statistics right, I showed you how to do this in Strategy #6.

For this strategy to work, it must be applied consistently.

Distributing one flyer or door hangers won’t build the brand recognition you need; it’s a strategy that requires repetition.

Studies suggest people need to see a brand nine to fifteen times before recognising it as a marketplace leader.

Consistent outreach makes your agency the go-to name for property management in the neighbourhood, instilling trust and familiarity.

Consider the branding your office is receiving in a short period of time. ‘For Lease’ signs, just listed flyers/door hangers, door knocking, branded vehicles on multiple occasions and ‘Just Leased’ flyers.

This steady, proactive approach can help property managers stand out and make meaningful connections with local property owners and neighbours, ultimately growing your rent roll through a highly targeted outreach.
