72,000 Boston real estate SMBs compete online. Most lose.
Your social presence either builds community and closes deals—or it doesn't. We make sure it does.
📍 Boston Market Insight: Boston's real estate market is fragmented across property portals and neighborhood-specific searches. Most agents treat social media as an afterthought, posting inconsistently and never converting engagement into qualified leads. The market is primed for operators who treat social as a lead-generation engine, not a broadcast channel. Organic, location-based social strategies are still underutilized in this market—giving early movers a significant competitive advantage.

Industry Benchmarks
Recognise Any of These?
These are the most common digital marketing challenges we see in Boston's real estate sector — and the hidden costs most businesses don't realise they're paying.
“Your Instagram and Facebook sit dormant for weeks. When you post, crickets.”
No editorial calendar, no strategy linking social content to your sales funnel. You're posting to post, not to convert.
Lost 15–40 qualified leads per month. At $250 per lead value, that's $3,750–$10,000 in monthly revenue left on the table.
“Property portals and Zillow dominate your local search visibility. Your social presence is invisible.”
No location-based social strategy. You're not leveraging neighborhood hashtags, geotags, or community-focused content to own local searches.
Buyers researching Back Bay or Seaport find competitors first. You're fighting for attention in a crowded feed instead of owning a niche.
“You've tried posting yourself or hired a VA to 'manage social.' Results are flat. Engagement is low.”
Lack of platform expertise and sales-focused thinking. Generic real estate content doesn't convert. You need strategy, storytelling, and funnel alignment.
Wasting 10+ hours/month on ineffective content. Social is treated as admin overhead, not a revenue lever.
How We Get You Results
No mystery. No black box. Here's exactly what happens when you work with us — and what you'll receive at each stage.
Audit & Strategy Foundation
Week 1–2We analyze your current social presence, competitor landscape, and sales funnel. We identify which Boston neighborhoods you own, which you're losing, and where social can drive the most qualified leads. This is where we align social with your actual business goals—not vanity metrics.

Content Calendar & Messaging Framework
Week 2–3We build a 90-day content calendar with location-specific storytelling, buyer journey mapping, and conversion hooks. Every post serves a purpose: build trust, showcase lifestyle, or drive inquiry. We align messaging to Back Bay sophistication, Seaport modernism, and neighborhood-specific buyer psychology.
90-day content calendar (40+ pre-planned posts), brand messaging guide, content templates
Creative Production & Launch
Week 4–6Our team produces high-quality visuals, short-form video, carousel posts, and Stories. We shoot location-tagged content that builds community narrative, not just listing inventory. Launch is staged across Instagram, TikTok, and LinkedIn with platform-specific optimization.
60+ content assets (photography, video, carousel graphics), platform-optimized posting suite
Engagement & Community Building
Ongoing (monthly cycles)We manage daily engagement: responding to comments, engaging with local accounts, running geotargeted campaigns, and nurturing leads from followers to qualified prospects. This is where 'community' becomes 'customer.' We use CRM integration to track which social leads close.
Daily engagement reporting, lead tracking dashboard, weekly performance summaries
Optimization & Scaling
Month 2 onwardsWe analyze what content converts best, which neighborhoods drive highest-value leads, and which times drive engagement. We scale winning content and tactics. By month 3–4, you'll see predictable lead flow from social. We adjust strategy quarterly based on data.
Monthly performance reports, quarterly strategy adjustments, funnel optimization recommendations
After 90 days, your social channels shift from static listings to active lead-generation engines. You'll see consistent, qualified inquiries tied directly to your social content. By month 6, social becomes one of your top 3 lead sources—and you own the narrative in your key neighborhoods.
Boston Real Estate Success Stories
A Boston-based boutique real estate team specializing in Back Bay and Beacon Hill properties
Strong offline reputation but weak social presence. Competitors with larger teams were capturing younger buyer attention on Instagram. Their own posts (6–8 per month) generated minimal engagement and zero qualified leads.
- →Built a neighborhood storytelling strategy: each post highlighted community culture, architecture history, and lifestyle (not just property features)
- →Implemented location tagging, geotargeted Stories, and buyer-journey content (first-time buyer guides, investment property ROI posts)
- →Launched paid campaigns targeting affluent Boston demographics while maintaining organic posting discipline (3–4x per week)
“We stopped thinking of Instagram as 'nice to have' and started treating it like our lead machine. Omakaase didn't just manage our account—they rewired how we present our properties and our expertise. The leads are qualified, they know our story, and they're ready to move fast.”
A mid-sized real estate brokerage in Seaport with 8 agents and $45M annual sales
High agent turnover meant inconsistent social presence across the team. No unified brand voice. Each agent posting sporadically created confusion. They were losing visibility to national firms using aggressive social tactics.
- →Created a team-based content system: daily agent spotlights, neighborhood deep-dives, market updates, and buyer testimonials
- →Built TikTok and LinkedIn presence (underutilized channels for real estate in Boston) targeting younger buyers and investor networks
- →Implemented a simple 'post-and-amplify' system: agents create; Omakaase optimizes, schedules, and amplifies with paid support
“We were losing younger buyers to bigger, flashier competitors. The TikTok strategy felt risky at first, but it completely changed our reach. Omakaase made it frictionless for our team to show up on social without adding chaos. We're now attracting investor and first-time buyer inquiries we were missing before.”
