How to Use Retargeting Strategies to Re-Engage Visitors and Skyrocket Your Mortgage Business: A Guide for Mortgage Brokers and Advisers

Hey you, awesome mortgage brokers and advisers! 🙌

Today, we're diving into something exciting: Retargeting. No, it's not just another buzzword; it's a potent tool that can turn 'almost clients' into actual ones. So, let's dig in and see how retargeting can supercharge your lead generation and brand growth efforts.

What is Retargeting and Why Should You Care?

In a nutshell, retargeting is all about reaching out to people who've interacted with your online content but didn't convert (yet!). Ever wondered what happens to that 90% of site visitors who don't fill out your 'Contact Me' form? Retargeting lets you remind them, "Hey, I'm still here to help you with your mortgage needs!"

So, why does retargeting matter for mortgage brokers and advisers? Because it's all about relationship-building. This strategy keeps you at the forefront of potential clients' minds, transforming you from just another mortgage broker to their go-to mortgage expert.

Types of Retargeting for Mortgage Brokers

1. Pixel-Based Retargeting

This is the most common type. A pixel is a tiny piece of code you add to your website. It tracks user behaviour, which allows you to retarget those visitors with specific ads.

2. List-Based Retargeting

If you have a list of email addresses from potential clients, you can use this to retarget on various platforms. Simply upload the list, and your retargeting ads will appear when those individuals are online.

3. Social Media Retargeting

Platforms like Facebook and LinkedIn offer robust retargeting options. These are fantastic places to show your expertise and offer content that solves problems.

How to Start Your Retargeting Campaign

Step 1: Identify Your Audience

Not all visitors are created equal. Some are just browsing; others are serious about finding a mortgage adviser. Tailor your retargeting ads to suit different visitor intents.

Step 2: Create Engaging Content

Retargeting is not about spamming; it's about offering value. Think e-books, webinars, or handy mortgage calculators. Offer content that educates and elevates your brand.
