Market yourself, your business, and your listings this month with these festive real estate marketing ideas for St. Patrick’s Day!
Social Media and Content Marketing
Social media is a cost-effective way to promote your real estate business and listings.
Engage your followers with these fun and festive St. Patrick’s Day post ideas:
🍀 “Lucky Listings” Spotlight. Showcase your most desirable listings with stories about lucky events that happened to the sellers while living there.
🍀 “Are You Feeling Lucky?” Poll. Ask your audience what makes them feel like they’ve struck gold: a lower purchase price or a lower interest rate.
🍀 “Would You Live Here?” Challenge. Share unique or over-the-top homes (green-painted homes, Irish-style cottages, etc.) and ask, “Would this be lucky for you or too much?”
🍀 “Lucky Homebuyer Stories.” Share success stories from past buyers who found their dream homes at just the right time.
🍀 St. Patrick’s Day Local Business Spotlight. Feature Irish pubs, bakeries, or coffee shops in your area. If you can, partner with them for a giveaway!
🍀 “What Your Favorite Irish Food Says About Your Home” Quiz. Create a fun quiz that matches Irish foods to home styles (Irish soda bread = a cozy cottage, corned beef and cabbage = a rustic farmhouse, etc.).
🍀 “Lucky Home Buyer Tips.” Share quick real estate tips, like how to make a winning offer or improve credit scores to qualify for a mortgage.
Email and Direct Mail Campaigns
Your mailing list is one of your most valuable marketing assets. Stay top-of-mind with a St. Patrick’s Day-themed email campaign (btw, if you need templates to present a more polished format, check out our newsletter templates):
🍀 “Find Your Four-Leaf Clover” Home Picks. Curate a list of homes for sale that fit specific buyer needs, positioning them as “lucky finds.”
🍀 “Pot of Gold Savings.” Share special mortgage rate promotions, first-time buyer grants, or homebuyer incentives.
🍀 “Are You Ready to Get Lucky in Real Estate?” Use a playful subject line to invite clients to schedule a consultation.
🍀 “A Lucky Letter to Our Clients.” Send a heartfelt thank-you email (or handwritten note) to past clients, expressing gratitude for their trust and referrals.
🍀 “Spring Market Luck—Are You Ready?” Educate buyers and sellers on why spring is a great time to make a move.
Events and Community Engagement
Take your St. Patrick’s Day real estate campaign offline with these fun event ideas:
🍀 “Lucky Open House.” Decorate an open house with green balloons, shamrocks, and festive treats like Irish soda bread or green cupcakes.
🍀 “Shamrock Homebuyer Workshop.” Host a first-time buyer seminar with an “Irish pub” theme: cozy vibes, warm drinks, and financial insights.
🍀 “Gold Hunt in the Neighborhood.” Organize a family-friendly scavenger hunt in a local community, leading participants to landmarks near homes for sale.
🍀 “St. Patrick’s Day Pub Tour.” If your target audience includes young professionals, lead a networking event at local Irish pubs.
Promotions and Giveaways
Giveaways are a great way to boost engagement and generate leads. Try these St. Patrick’s Day-themed promotions:
🍀 “Pot of Gold” Referral Giveaway. Increase referral business by offering an entry into a prize drawing for every referral received in March.
🍀 “Shamrock Surprise for Home Sellers.” Give listing clients a valuable listing gift like a last family photo session in their home before they move.
🍀 “Lucky Home Photo Contest.” Ask followers to share what makes their home “lucky” (charming features, lucky décor, etc.) for a prize.
