Texting

This type of communication has literally taken over as the new way to interact in our society. It now has replaced the use of sending an email, to making a phone call or simply having face-to-face interactions. An email blast can now come from a text message. Even though email still exists, a text message is more effective with an instant arrival and visibility to a smartphone.

Several are beginning to use social media as a way to share information about these events prior to their existence and posting community photos of the event afterward. This type of beginning and after communication activity allows for community involvement all the way around.

It keeps community engagement very high and can inspire feedback. Snapchat is noted as one of the most successful applications to create immediate connections as technology moves quickly forward.

FaceTime or Skype

This is an awesome way to get direct feedback. The platform offers video-chatting that is direct and very personable. It allows for genuine communication to take place giving leasing properties effective feedback and the opportunity to address any and all concerns. It further ensures privacy, as visiting the office may be a thing of the past.

Email Blasts

Though this form of communication still lives, it is becoming less useful. However, it can still be an effective form of communication sharing policy or even goals of the leasing property. It's important to realize it is still viable and can be dependable.

It's a new world we are entering into and taking advantage of new technology is key. Properties are realizing the importance of building communities that have a more personal feel.
