Job to be Done: benefits of the approach for the property sector
A properly organised sales process plays a vital role in the success of development activities. Sales during the construction phase are the main source of project funding. Marketers use various concepts to develop a sales strategy to achieve good results. One of these is Job to be Done, often combined with the Job stories format. This approach involves a deep understanding of the target audience and their motivations. Using JTBD, it is possible to qualitatively segment consumers and highlight those who really need a property.
How Job to be Done works
At the heart of the Job to be Done concept is the problem the consumer is trying to solve by buying a particular product. All factors are taken into account, such as the person’s motivation and the difficulties they face in the buying process. Specialists use this approach to achieve marketing goals in the real estate sector, as the purchase of housing allows to close several needs of the buyer at the same time.
The Job stories method captures the tasks at hand. This format has three key components:
1. Role: defines the specific person or role you are creating a story for. This could be a buyer, a landlord, or just a user with no detailed characteristics.
2. Task: the problem or task faced by the user.
3. Goal: the desired outcome the user wants to achieve by solving a particular problem or challenge.
While the JTBD divides the target audience into different segments, job stories help describe each consumer group in detail. For qualitative segmentation, the sales force collects data from the CRM system through customer surveys. In this case, research and questionnaires from potential buyers and people who have already bought a home have produced excellent results. In this way, specialists learn about the motivations and goals of property buyers and develop a sales strategy based on these.
