How Real Estate Pros Grow Business with Social Media
In this episode of The Community Table, Sophie and Peterson discuss the role of social media in growing their real-estate related businesses, especially how authenticity and consistency drive visibility and client engagement. Peterson shares his journey from healthcare and fitness into real estate, explaining how his early use of social media in fitness helped build confidence in content creation. They talk through practical strategies—like embracing video, being comfortable on camera, balancing personal and business content, and using tools like professional videography—that have translated into business growth (with about one-third of Peterson’s clients coming from Instagram). They also reflect on posting strategies (frequency, timing, calendars), trending sounds and hashtag relevancy, how to interpret social metrics versus business outcomes, authenticity in personal branding, and how to navigate creative motivation and burnout. Sophie and Peterson emphasize that social media is long-term brand work that increases top-of-mind visibility and trust, even if not every post directly generates a lead. Insights from other real-estate pros also highlight that authenticity, variety, and consistency in short-form video are key to engagement and business growth.https://www.communitymtg.com/
