“Your Woodlands Connection”—Official
Newspaper of Bruce & Diane Kink and The KinkTeam (Keller Williams
Realty). Find out what makes this publication so effective!
The best custom newspapers execute the perfect balance
of generalized local content that appeals to a larger community
audience, along with real estate content that positions the Realtor
as an informed professional leader. “Your Woodlands Connection”
is an exemplary publication that executes this winning formula.
The masthead enhances the community feel of its paper
by complementing the title with a photograph of a recognizable local
site. Consider incorporating a local landmark or popular
site into the masthead to connect to community members
with greater effectiveness.
Teasers are strategically placed above and below
the newspaper’s fold line. The masthead includes teasers that
provide an overview of content located in the inside pages (Woodlands
Homes, Travel, Interior Design, Sports Trivia, Health) to appeal
to the widest possible local audience. The teasers located below
the fold line direct readers to specific articles and serve as an
invitation to look inside.
Real estate content is mixed evenly with generalized
local content on the front cover to showcase industry-related content
while maintaining the appeal of a community newspaper.
The back cover takes the popular approach of showcasing
current homes on the market, but goes the extra step of making an
effective call to action. The copy at the top of the page encourages
potential sellers to consider selling with The Kink Team to provide
similar newspaper exposure when the time to sell one’s home
arrives (“If you see your home here, so do thousands of potential
buyers…”).
In addition to the “Featured Home of the Month”
on the front cover, the publication utilizes the inside center spread
to showcase its most valuable properties in “Homes of Distinction.”
The professional layout provides interior and exterior shots of
homes, complemented with detailed descriptions and home specifications.
This approach is a highly effective way to spotlight the homes you
most want to sell.
The publication also includes
a monthly marketing report, team member introductions and Web site
and Referral Program promotions on the inside pages.
