Styles

Aesthetics tailored to: Use “DSM” in on-screen text sparingly (locals recognize it), paired with clear neighborhood tags like East Village or Court Ave for out-of-town buyers., Downtown + East Village condo/loft tours: quick cuts, clean typography, and a “walkable weekend” slide (coffee, Court Ave, Capitol/East Village vibe). ([en.wikipedia.org](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/East_Village_%28Des_Moines%29?utm_source=openai)), Western Gateway creative: wide establishing shots (if provided) that nod to the John and Mary Pappajohn Sculpture Park’s downtown setting (great for luxury + modern listings). ([desmoinesartcenter.org](https://desmoinesartcenter.org/visit/pappajohn-sculpture-park/?utm_source=openai)), Beaverdale content: call out the classic brick-home look and tree-lined streets—perfect for “character homes” reels and before/after renovation posts. ([beaverdale.org](https://www.beaverdale.org/about-beaverdale/?utm_source=openai)), Ingersoll & Grand (The Avenues) posts: highlight indie restaurants/shops + “easy to downtown” positioning; add parking guidance slides when needed. ([dsmwestside.org](https://www.dsmwestside.org/ingersoll-grand/?utm_source=openai)), Drake-area energy: lean into “boulevards + historic homes + campus proximity” and seasonal student/relocation angles. ([drakeneighborhood.org](https://drakeneighborhood.org/about/?utm_source=openai)), South of Grand / Waterbury: stately-home pacing (slower cuts, elegant type), plus detail shots (trim, brick, mature trees) to match the neighborhood expectations. ([greaterdsmusa.com](https://www.greaterdsmusa.com/stories/des-moines-neighborhoods?utm_source=openai)), Trail + park lifestyle cutaways (when provided): Water Works Park scale, Waveland Trail connections, and ‘weekend outdoors’ hooks. ([en.wikipedia.org](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_Works_Park_%28Des_Moines%29?utm_source=openai)).

Seasonality

Content ready for: Winter-proofing content (Dec–Feb): cold, dry winters + regular snowfall—post about garages, mudrooms, insulation, and “days like this” cozy features. ([en.wikipedia.org](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Des_Moines%2C_Iowa?utm_source=openai)), Spring severe-weather season: thunderstorm-ready talking points (roof age, gutters, sump pumps, drainage) and basement-flood prevention checklists—especially for river-adjacent buyers. ([axios.com](https://www.axios.com/local/des-moines/2025/07/22/des-moines-flash-flood-warnings-rain-levee?utm_source=openai)), Drake Relays week (April 22–25, 2026): target visiting alumni/buyers with ‘stay near Drake’ and ‘investment/parent-buyer’ angles. ([drakeroadraces.org](https://www.drakeroadraces.org/Race/DrakeRoadRaces/Page/DrakeRelays?utm_source=openai)), Downtown Farmers’ Market season (May 2–Oct 31, 2026): ‘Saturday routine’ lifestyle reels for downtown/East Village listings (Court Ave foot traffic is a vibe). ([dsmpartnership.com](https://www.dsmpartnership.com/desmoinesfarmersmarket/?utm_source=openai)), Des Moines Arts Festival (June 26–28, 2026): position Western Gateway listings with ‘festival weekend’ walkability + hosting-friendly layouts. ([desmoinesartsfestival.org](https://www.desmoinesartsfestival.org/?utm_source=openai)), Summer listing strategy: warm/humid stretches + afternoon thunderstorms—emphasize shade, porches, mature trees, and HVAC age/efficiency. ([en.wikipedia.org](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Des_Moines%2C_Iowa?utm_source=openai)), Iowa State Fair (Aug 13–23, 2026): run ‘coming to town’ relocation content + ‘easy access to fairgrounds’ neighborhood positioning. ([en.wikipedia.org](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iowa_State_Fair?utm_source=openai)), World Food & Music Festival: a built-in ‘global food in downtown DSM’ lifestyle angle for captions and story polls (What booth would you hit first?). ([dsmpartnership.com](https://www.dsmpartnership.com/worldfoodandmusicfestival/about-the-festival?utm_source=openai)), Iowa homestead credit reminder (file by July 1): great evergreen carousel for first-time buyers and relocations.

FAQ: Des Moines Real Estate Social Media Marketing

How do you promote a listing on Instagram in Des Moines?
We pair high-retention Reels (fast hook + captions) with DSM-local context: neighborhood callouts (East Village, Drake, Beaverdale, Sherman Hill, Ingersoll & Grand/The Avenues) and lifestyle angles (Downtown Farmers’ Market season, Water Works Park scale, Western Gateway/Pappajohn area). ([en.wikipedia.org](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/East_Village_%28Des_Moines%29?utm_source=openai))
What is the turnaround time?
Typically 2–3 days from the time we receive your assets. If you’re up against a ‘Just Listed’ deadline, ask about rush delivery so you can post while buyer attention is hottest.
Do I need to be in the video?
No. We can build strong listing content using only property visuals with text overlays and captions. If you want to be on camera, we’ll structure quick talking points that feel natural (not scripted or cheesy).
How much does real estate social media marketing cost in Des Moines?
Pricing starts at $57 for 10 posts and $127 for 30 posts. We also offer a complete done-for-you scheduling and posting package for an extra $99. Each package includes one round of revisions and is customized to your brand—no generic templates.
What platforms do you create content for?
We create content optimized for Instagram (Reels, Stories, Posts) and Facebook (Page posts, Stories). We can also adapt assets for LinkedIn, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts with the correct dimensions and pacing.
Can you match my brand colors and fonts?
Yes—send your brand kit (logos, colors, fonts, guidelines) and we’ll match it. If you don’t have one, we can help set up a clean, modern system that stands out in the Des Moines feed without looking templated.
How many revisions are included?
One round of revisions is included. We can adjust copy, swap images, tweak timing, and refine design details based on your feedback.
Do you build content around local events in Des Moines?
Yes—when it makes sense for your audience. We can plan seasonal posts around Drake Relays (April 22–25, 2026), the Downtown Farmers’ Market (May 2–Oct 31, 2026), the Des Moines Arts Festival (June 26–28, 2026), and the Iowa State Fair (Aug 13–23, 2026). ([drakeroadraces.org](https://www.drakeroadraces.org/Race/DrakeRoadRaces/Page/DrakeRelays?utm_source=openai))
Do you write captions and hashtags?
Yes. Every package includes caption options (short/medium/long) plus a Des Moines-local hashtag + geotag set tailored to the neighborhood and property type.
What results can I expect from consistent posting?
Most clients see stronger listing engagement (especially on Reels), more DMs, and higher open house attendance when posting consistently. We focus on repeatable systems: clear hooks, local relevance, and fast delivery so you stay active even during busy weeks.
