Capture Leads with the 2^nd Largest Commercial Listing Network in the U.S.  

Amid constantly changing commercial real estate market conditions, having an innovative marketing strategy is essential to maximize lead opportunities, reduce the lead-to-lease cycle and keep commercial spaces occupied. An effective marketing plan achieves this by focusing on consistent, quality content across multiple CRE listing platforms for a constant lead flow.  

However, maximizing listing exposure can be challenging without the right technology. Relying on outdated or manual processes to sync information across marketing channels can hinder lead opportunities. Thus, it’s crucial to centralize property information in a single, connected system that allows for automation and eliminates inconsistencies for a seamless experience for prospective tenants. 

Utilizing multiple listing services feeds (MLSs) and listing syndication services is one of the primary methods of ensuring heightened listing visibility and an increased lead flow. A single content distribution platform allows you to keep all your listings up to date on all marketplaces where they have been syndicated. For example, as soon as lease information is updated on a property, the listing will disappear from all listing services without the need to manually remove the space from different marketplaces. 

Maximize Leads on Your Listings  

By leveraging the CommercialEdge Listing Network, part of the Yardi commercial marketplaces, you can automatically distribute to the rapidly expanding network of marketing channels, which includes CommercialCafe, CommercialSearch, PropertyShark, Point2 Commercial and 42Floors.  

These marketplaces rank on the first page of Google, bring in more than 2 million visits per month and generate over 300,000 qualified commercial real estate leads annually. The CommercialEdge Listing Network ranks in the top 10 spots on Google with more than 1,500 keywords and hundreds of those claim the top three positions. Some of the search phrases with high rankings are “New York City office space for rent,” “Los Angeles commercial real estate,” “Chicago commercial real estate,” “Austin commercial real estate” and more. 

Commercial real estate professionals can publish their listings on the network by creating a free account on the CommercialEdge Marketing platform. This allows agents and brokers to post unlimited free commercial real estate listings (covering all asset classes), with the option to syndicate to the entire CommercialEdge Listing Network.  

Additionally, for heightened exposure and maximized lead opportunities, CRE professionals can strategically promote listings with premium ads, ensuring they are on the top of search pages across the entire network.
