What Happens at a SimpliSold Two Day Showing Event? (Hint: More Buyers, Bigger Offers)

If you think you know what a SimpliSold showing event looks like, think again.
The traditional open house—3 or 4 buyers wandering in on a quiet Sunday afternoon—feels more like a museum tour than a launch event.

At SimpliSold, we believe the showing event should do more than just "show" your home.
It should sell it—at the highest price possible.
That’s why we created the Two Day Showing Event.

This isn’t your typical weekend drop-in.
It’s a high-energy, strategically planned event designed to create intense competition among buyers—and push offers well beyond what you'd get with the old-fashioned approach.

Here’s exactly what happens at a SimpliSold Two Day Showing Event—and why it’s so powerful.

First: Strategic Preparation and Marketing

Before we ever open your door to the public, we build anticipation through our Digital Blitz:

  • Professional photos and video tours flood online listings.

  • Social media campaigns promote your upcoming showing event across Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, and more.

  • Email blasts reach our database of 2,497+ qualified buyers—and their agents.

  • Direct mail targets neighbors who may know someone looking to buy nearby.

By the time the weekend arrives, buzz is already building.

Your home isn’t just “listed.”
It’s hyped.

Day 1: The Two Day Showing Event Launch

When buyers arrive, the first thing they notice isn't the home—it's the crowd.
Dozens of other buyers are there, touring, asking questions, picturing their future in your home.

On average, SimpliSold showing events attract 57 serious buyers over one weekend.

This immediate sense of interest does three critical things:

  • Validates value: If others want it, it must be worth having.

  • Creates urgency: Buyers know they can't wait if they want to win.

  • Triggers competition: Fear of missing out (FOMO) becomes very, very real.

Instead of leisurely browsing, buyers act decisively—and prepare to bid aggressively.

Day 2: Continued Buyer Activity and Building Momentum

The momentum from Day 1 spills into Day 2.

Buyers who saw the home on Saturday often return with spouses, parents, or decision-makers.
New buyers arrive after seeing social media posts and marketing pushes from Saturday’s traffic.

Throughout Sunday, buyer interest peaks.
They see the competition.
They feel the excitement.
And they know: This home is not going to last.

By late Sunday afternoon, the atmosphere is electric—and perfectly primed for the next step.

Sunday Evening: The Bidding Platform Goes Live

Unlike traditional open houses that end with vague promises ("we'll let you know if you get an offer"), SimpliSold transitions immediately into action.

At 4 PM Sunday afternoon, your home goes live on our transparent online bidding platform.

Here's how it works:

  • Every serious buyer who toured your home receives an invitation to participate.

  • All offers are visible in real-time (no blind bidding, no guessing games).

  • Buyers can see what others are offering—and adjust their bids accordingly.

This creates a frenzied, deadline-driven environment that drives prices up—not down.

Buyers aren't just making offers.
They're fighting to win.

Monday to Wednesday: The Bidding War Heats Up

Buyers have until Wednesday at 7 PM to submit their best and final offers.

Throughout these 72 hours:

  • Early bids create momentum and excitement.

  • Late bids create urgency and "fear of loss."

  • Buyers who thought they were maxed out often stretch their budgets higher to stay competitive.

It's not uncommon to see:

  • Bids increase multiple times within hours.

  • Buyers who initially bid conservatively come back with significantly stronger offers.

  • Final sale prices well above market expectations.

The combination of a packed open house, visible competition, and a ticking clock transforms buyer behavior.

Thursday: You Choose the Winning Offer

By Thursday morning, you'll have multiple offers in hand—usually 8 or more—and you stay in full control:

  • Accept the highest offer.

  • Choose the offer with the best terms (fewer contingencies, flexible closing date, etc.).

  • Or counter strategically if you see an opportunity to push even higher.

You're not guessing.
You're choosing from a position of power.

And because every buyer has seen the real competition firsthand, there are no games, no long negotiations, and no surprises.

Why the SimpliSold Two Day Showing Event Works

The SimpliSold showing event taps into deep-rooted buyer psychology: 

🔵 Social Proof: When others are interested, the perceived value of your home rises.
🔵 Scarcity: Limited time + limited availability = urgency.
🔵 Transparency: Buyers trust the process because they can see the action unfold in real time.
🔵 Competition: Fear of missing out leads to aggressive, top-dollar bidding.

It's not just a showing—it’s a carefully orchestrated bidding environment where buyers are emotionally and financially committed.

Real Results: What Sellers Experience

  • Homes sell in 8 days on average with SimpliSold—compared to 45+ days traditionally.

  • Final prices often exceed list prices by 10% or more.

  • Less hassle: Only one weekend of showings, no random appointments during the week.

  • More control: Choose the best offer without stressful back-and-forth negotiations.
