Altos Research is the leader in providing consumer friendly market statistics for your website or blog. We are fortunate to get Mike’s perspective on how to use this data to attract, engage and convert visitors to your site.

 

Together, we will be discussing Mike Simonsen's 3 Question Philosophy

 

The consumer shows up on your site and they only have 3 questions:

 

  What's for sale?
  How much is the house worth?
  How's the market?

 

…and therefore your site needs to answer those three questions immediately. How does clear market data help accomplish this?

 

 

We will also be getting Mike’s take on:

 

  What makes a good blog post?
  What do real estate consumers need to know?
  How do people respond to and understand data?
  How do you use data for lead conversion?
  How effective are the PDF data reports?

 

I know it all sounds a bit boring (now that I type it out) but trust me, we’ll make market statistics and data seem sexy by the time we’re done!
