Content that moves people, not just fills a feed
Most content calendars give you a mix of post types. This one is built on the Marketing Matrix: every post is engineered to move someone through a stage of the buyer journey, from knowing you as a neighbour, to trusting your read on their block, to calling you before they list, to sending you the next person on the street. Each stage tells you how to sound and what footage to pull. Your own goal for day 90 is the operating instruction for this whole map: nobody should be surprised, they should just have more evidence. Which also answers the question that stops you posting. Why does my viewer care is already built into every hook below.
Your three content angles
Before the funnel mechanics, this is the heart of it: the three things you want to be known for. Every hook in this map ladders back to one of these. They’re your throughline.
The Go-To, Not Just the Neighbour
Elbow Park, Bel-Aire, Rideau-Roxboro, Elboya. Everyone already knows you live there. The job of the next 90 days is making it obvious you are the agent for those streets. You know which blocks carry the lifestyle premium, the river pathway proximity, the school catchment. That cannot be faked with a spreadsheet.
Priced Right the First Time
Your sellers are not worried about finding a buyer. They are worried about mispricing twenty-five years of equity. You price on the six blocks around them, prep once, and do not chase the market down.
Referral Is the Whole Scoreboard
Anyone can buy leads. Almost nobody gets 97% of their business from people who already trusted them. That number is the byproduct of handling every possible detail so busy clients do not have to, and of running life-stage sales with real discretion. It is a better read on an agent than listing count.
Your funnel at a glance
Weight your output toward the top of the funnel, where new people find you, and taper toward retention. These percentages are a target, not a rule.
Awareness
- Referral rate is a better read on an agent than listing count. Anyone can buy leads.
- The biggest mistake sellers make is hiring an agent who has never walked these streets outside a listing appointment.
- Which blocks carry the lifestyle premium is not something you can fake with a spreadsheet.
- Your problem is not finding a buyer. It is mispricing twenty-five years of equity.
- Chasing the market down costs far more than pricing it correctly on day one.
- The kids are gone and the house is too big. You have been saying that for two years.
- Twenty-five years in this house and you do not want the whole street knowing before you are ready.
- You are not selling a house. You are unwinding a chapter. Those are two different jobs.
- You have run the numbers on something smaller four times and still have not called anyone.
- Every estimate you have seen came from a website that has never been inside your house.
- The right next house is smaller, lighter, and closer to everything you actually use.
- Sold in under three weeks, at the number, with nobody in your business.
- Imagine handing this to someone who already knows the street and the buyers on it.
- Downsizing should feel like relief, not loss. It does when the equity comes with you.
- You want this handled the way you would handle it yourself. That is the whole brief.
Consideration
- Elbow Park pricing is not Altadore pricing. A city-wide average tells you nothing about your house.
- Here is what twenty years of updates actually adds to your price, and what it does not.
- Your first three weeks on the market are your entire negotiating position. Spend them carefully.
- An estate sale gets priced differently than a downsize, even on the same block. Here is why.
- Prep is not staging. Prep is deciding what a buyer would otherwise use against you.
- Before a single photo is taken: hyperlocal comparables, a prep list, and a price we both believe.
- Trust the process, price it right, prep it once. That is the whole method.
- How I run a sale when nobody is supposed to know it is happening yet.
- I handle every possible detail so you do not have to. That is the entire service.
- I do not list on hope. I list on what has actually sold within six blocks of you.
- Walking a Britannia listing before it goes live. Here is what I flag first.
- School drop-off, two showings, an offer, and back for pick-up. That is a Tuesday.
- The unglamorous part: a prep list nobody sees and everybody feels in the offer.
- I lived here for years before I ever sold here. That is the actual advantage.
- What happens in the week before a listing goes live.
Decision
- Priced right on day one instead of three reductions later. Same house, different outcome.
- She was ready to list high and see what happened. We prepped instead and the market answered faster.
- From we will probably sell next spring, to sold and moved, with nobody the wiser.
- Nineteen days on market against a market average of twenty-five. The prep is the difference.
- Twenty-five years of equity, protected by three weeks of decisions.
- Almost all of this business is repeat and referral. That is the whole review.
- People do not stake their reputation on a referral unless the experience was flawless.
- Ask the neighbour who already sold with me. Most of my clients arrived exactly that way.
- What my sellers say they were most worried about, and what actually happened.
- Here is what gets done between the first conversation and the day we go live.
- Planning a sale in the next year? The pricing conversation should happen now, not then.
- Send me your address and I will send back what your six blocks are actually doing.
- If you want this handled discreetly, that is a conversation, not a form on a website.
- Book the pre-list walkthrough. You leave knowing your number and your list.
- DM me your street name and I will tell you what has sold on it this year.
Retention
- Sold, and she is three blocks away in exactly the right house.
- Another one that started as a coffee two years before the listing.
- Keys handed over on a street I have lived on for a decade.
- The kids’ rooms are packed and the next chapter is smaller and better.
- To everyone who sent me their neighbour this year, thank you.
- I am in the business of taking care of people. Real estate is just the vehicle.
- I volunteer at the school, I am on the sideline, I live here. The real estate comes after.
- If we worked well together, tell the neighbour who has been thinking about it.
- I would rather do fewer sales properly than more of them badly.
- You knew me before you needed me. That is how this is supposed to work.
- You are in the smaller house. Here is what to handle in the first ninety days.
- Which renovations hold their value on these blocks, and which ones do not.
- How to keep records now so your next sale prices itself later.
- What sold in your neighbourhood this quarter, in plain numbers.
- When to start planning a sale you think is three years away.

Hooks, two ways to find them
Browse by what you want to be known for (your angles), or by where someone is in the buyer journey (the funnel). Same hooks, two doorways — grab whichever fits the post you’re making.
By angle — what you’re known for
- An agent who has never walked these streets outside a listing appointment.
- Which blocks carry the lifestyle premium cannot be faked with a spreadsheet.

- Your problem is not finding a buyer. It is mispricing the equity.
- Elbow Park pricing is not Altadore pricing.
- Your first three weeks are your entire negotiating position.

One clip, five ways
Every good clip is five posts, not one. Here’s how to pull a week of content out of a single piece of footage.
- Reel — add one hook from the library as the on-screen line and post it to the grid ~6 min
- Story series — three frames with a poll: what would you price this at ~5 min
- Carousel — the same idea in five slides using stills pulled from the clip ~15 min
- LinkedIn post — the point written out in three lines, no video needed at all ~6 min
- Neighbourhood update — the frame plus one real number from that block this quarter ~5 min
- Reel — the walkthrough narrated, what you flag first and why ~10 min
- Quote graphic — one pricing line over a clean exterior still ~8 min
- Carousel — the prep list slide by slide, walkthrough stills as backgrounds ~15 min
- Story with a question sticker — would you fix this before listing ~4 min
- DM starter — send the clip to three past clients on that street with one line ~5 min
Caption starters
Copy these frameworks and drop in the specifics. Each one pairs naturally with a footage type.
A city-wide average tells you nothing about your house. This block sold [number] homes this year and the spread was [range]. Here is what moved the top of that range: [two or three factors]. Your equity is priced on six blocks, not on a headline. #yycrealestate #calgaryrealestate #yyc
Most of my sellers are not moving because they want to. The kids left, or the plan changed, or the house is now bigger than the life in it. [a short story, no names, no identifying details]. You are not selling a house, you are unwinding a chapter. That is a different job and it should be handled like one. #calgaryrealestate #downsizing #yyc
Prep is not about making it pretty. Prep is deciding what a buyer would otherwise use against you at the table. In this house that was [two or three items]. We handled it once, before the photos, and it never came up again. #listingprep #yycrealestate #yyc
Almost all of my business is repeat and referral. People do not stake their reputation on a referral unless the experience was flawless, so I only ever get one version of this to do. [one line about a recent client or a thank you]. If we worked well together, tell the neighbour who has been thinking about it. #referral #calgaryrealestate #yyc
Planning a sale in the next year? The pricing conversation should happen now, not the week you list. Send me your address and I will send back exactly what your six blocks have done this year, plus what your house would need before it goes live. Discreet, no obligation. [one line on who this is for]. #yycrealestate #calgaryhomes #yyc
