NuOp and Social Proof: Why establishing an online presence is an important step

In this business, trust is everything. So, what can you do to ensure that you are gaining trust within our industry? For starters, you have to gain something called “social proof.” According to Hootesuite, “social proof is a psychological phenomenon referring to people’s reliance on the feedback and actions of others to determine what is right and what is wrong in a given situation…the rise of social media has enhanced the importance of social proof because feedback from real people is more easily accessible than ever before. As a result, entrepreneurs and small business owners are realizing it’s an important part of their overall social presence.” As a Real Estate Professional, you, too, should understand that your overall social presence and social proof are of utmost importance.

So, Why you should care about Social Proof

There are many reasons you should care about social proof. The main one is that it is validation for you and your business.  Meaning people know you are a trusted business and are more likely to buy from you, they overcome that fear that forms during the first meeting. We give a great example of social proof in our other article on the subject, make sure to check that one out here. But for now, we will just look at how NuOp can help you grow this social proof.
