Robert Vegas Bob Swetz It doesn't take much effort. Put together a detailed Marketing Plan and present it to the seller. It will carry a lot of weight when they see it in writing.

Vegas Bob is with Michael Setunsky on presenting a detailed marketing plan for the home owner.
And I also like this part of Michael Jacob's answer:
I talk about teamwork and by working together we can achieve the best possible results.
Topped off by Debe Maxwell's answer:
I have a slideshow presentation that shows all of the marketing that the sellers can expect during the listing of their home. We review it in detail and never have they asked me to do something besides print marketing in the first week...of course, I say NO to that!

I give them a detailed marketing plan that explains it all. If they get caught up on one item or another I quickly get them to focus on all the other things. At the end I always ask if there is anything else they would like to add and have yet to have anyone add a thing.

Start packing is the very first thing for them to know. After that, watch how it all enfolds nicely....

I'd tell them what I was going to do, but I wouldn't be specific on how it's done, which they might be fishing for.

I like to show them with examples of current and past marketing. I have a handout of what we offer that wows most sellers but showing it live also helps.

They shouldn't have to ask. I think a written marketing plan is important for any listing presentation.

Stick a sign in the yard, hang a lockbox on the door, and put it in the MLS. Plus a photo of the front of the house taken with my smartphone on a cloudy day, and also a picture of the bathroom with the toilet seat raised.
Uh, no. We are going to doll this house up, professionally photograph it, price it right, and market it properly to both the public and to other Realtors.

I give a full summary of what we do and the results that they can expect, specific plans are reserved for when we get serious and have an agreement in place.
