Unlock Client Loyalty with a "Party Shed" VIP Program

As real estate agents, we’re always looking for creative ways to connect with our database and sphere of influence. But what if you could stand out by offering something truly unique? Enter the party shed. 🏠


A party shed is a space where you store items that your clients and friends can borrow—things they might only need once or twice a year. Think about it: birthday parties, family gatherings, and community events all require resources like tables, chairs, bounce houses, popcorn machines, or even a carpet cleaner. 🎉



Why a Party Shed Works

This idea goes beyond simple generosity—it creates a win-win scenario for you and your clients. Here’s how:

  1. Strengthens Client Relationships: By offering your clients access to these items, you’re not just their agent—you’re a valued resource in their lives.

  2. Keeps You Top of Mind: Every time they use one of your items, they’re reminded of the value you bring, even outside of buying or selling homes.

  3. Free Marketing: Branding the items with your logo ensures that your name is front and center, whether it’s a bounce house at a birthday party or a tablecloth at a neighborhood block party.


 

How to Set Up a Party Shed

Inspired by a top agent I heard speak at a recent Tom Ferry Elite training in Florida (shoutout to @amystockberger for introducing this idea!), here are the steps to get started:

  1. Stock Your Shed with High-Value ItemsBegin with items your clients are likely to need, such as:

    • Tables and chairs

    • Event tablecloths

    • Popcorn or cotton candy machines

    • Bounce houses

    • Slip-and-slides

    • Cleaning equipment (think carpet cleaners)

  2. Brand Your InventoryAdd your logo or contact info to every item for passive marketing. Every time your clients or their friends use these items, they’ll associate the positive experience with you.

  3. Promote It as a VIP ProgramMarket your party shed as an exclusive perk for your database. Use email campaigns, social media posts, or personal conversations to share the details. Clients will love feeling like they’re part of an inner circle.

  4. Keep It SimpleCreate an easy borrowing process with a sign-up sheet or a booking calendar. This ensures everything runs smoothly and nothing gets double-booked.


 

The Benefits Are Huge

Not only does a party shed help you build stronger relationships with your clients, but it also positions you as a thoughtful, community-minded agent. Plus, it’s a fantastic conversation starter and differentiator in a competitive market. 🌟
