The Power of Three: Attention, Trust, and Influence

Social media isn’t just for likes—it’s a powerful marketing tool that helps your community stand out, build trust, and inspire action. At Sprout, we call this the Power of Three Framework: attention, trust, and influence. When you schedule our suggested daily captions, you're not just filling a feed—you’re creating meaningful touchpoints that connect with residents, drive leads, and showcase your community’s personality.


Attention

Goal: Stop the scroll and capture interest with bold, engaging content.

Actionable Ideas:

  • Post a time-lapse of a resident event setup to intrigue your audience.

  • Use “thumb-stopping” visuals like colorful graphics for Creative Holidays.

  • Feature an engaging question in your caption: “Which pizza topping reigns supreme?”

Trust:

Goal: Create authentic connections by showing reliability and care.

Actionable Ideas:

  • Share a post celebrating long-term residents with a heartfelt caption: “Cheers to [Resident Name] for 5 wonderful years in our community!”

  • Post a candid “day in the life” of your team to humanize your brand.

  • Highlight recent community improvements, like upgraded amenities or maintenance wins.

Influence:

Goal: Inspire residents and prospects to take action or engage.

Actionable Ideas:

  • Share your Love. Invite followers to comment on their favorite local spots.

  • Create a post encouraging residents to share their #HomeAt[CommunityName] moments with a specific hashtag.

  • Highlight an exclusive resident perk, like early access to an event or a referral incentive.

Why It Matters

When your social media strikes a balance between attention-grabbing visuals, trust-building authenticity, and action-driving influence, it turns followers into engaged community members. Residents feel connected, prospects see your value, and your brand becomes more than just a property—it becomes a lifestyle.
