Real estate professionals are constantly evolving, and so is the way Inman covers news. In an effort to make the industry more informed, Inman has launched Inman Content Studios to produce stories that educate and inspire on behalf of our sponsors.
Known as native advertising or sponsored content, these stories will draw readers to helpful technologies, trends and strategies while creating opportunities for sponsors to strengthen their brands and areas of industry. The stories will appear on the Inman homepage and atop the morning newsletter for one week after publishing with clear distinctions that they are sponsored, but will also maintain the same standards and voice of Inman’s award-winning editorial coverage.
The initial launch partners are highly respected companies across the industry, including Adwerx, BoomTown, DocuSign and Intuit.
“Tell your story, stand out from the noise, and help your target audience succeed with our new stories produced by Inman Content Studios,” said publisher Brad Inman. “It’s a powerful, new way to reach and engage the growing Inman audience, made up of the best of the best in real estate.”
What’s in store
