Commercial Real Estate Marketing Updates for Q2 2014

Commercial property marketing is constantly evolving, and wise marketers always aim to stay ahead of new developments. That’s why, with the first half of 2014 beginning to come to a close, we decided it was an opportune moment to share some of the new ideas we’ve come across.

1. Drones take real estate marketing upwards
One of the most surprising trends of late is the use of drones to create flyover videos for marketing real estate properties. The ability to offer potential clients panoramic views of your office space, shopping center or residential block is clearly valuable, but whether or not this feature will gain mainstream demand has yet to be seen.

2. CRE // Tech Intersect gains a foothold
New conference and demonstration event CRE // Tech Intersect, now in its second year of running, is growing in importance and received a growing quantity of visitors this year. A sign of the times, perhaps? You can find out in New York in November, when the next event takes place. Won’t be able to make it? Take a look at our commercial real estate events calendar for a list of other important sector events.
