At Zoopla, we’re committed to helping our agent partners secure instructions and grow their businesses - and 2025 was a record year for this. Heading into the new year, our ambition is stronger than ever.
With pent-up demand from delayed market decisions around the Autumn Budget, we’re anticipating a bigger-than-usual 'Boxing Day Bounce' - the seasonal surge of interest as we move into the new year. This is as a result of the removal of the threat of extra taxes in the budget, which is set to deliver a much needed boost to buyer demand and overall market activity at the start of 2026.
We’re seizing this moment with a multimillion-pound marketing campaign designed to deliver immediate, tangible results for your business.
‘Just Ask Zoopla’ for more high-quality valuation leads
The campaign is specifically engineered to continuously nurture and convert high-quality valuation leads for Zoopla customers into next year.
So, how will we achieve this?
1. The return of proven valuation campaign messaging
‘Just Ask Zoopla’ is our most successful valuation advertising campaign for driving leads to our customers. The campaign features Nana’s Cottage and Kid’s Party as its hero TV adverts and playfully uses home valuation curiosity to drive homeowners to get a valuation through Zoopla and our estate agent partners.
2. Maximum reach and visibility
The campaign launches on Christmas Day and is expected to reach 4 in 5 UK adults. We’re investing heavily in streaming and digital video like Netflix and YouTube, as well as high-impact festive and prime-time TV slots including:
3. Optimised navigation to help sellers find your business
To ensure our customers are able to capitalise on campaign activity, we’re building a simple but powerful conversion journey from our ‘offsite’ marketing through to Zoopla.co.uk. We’re putting our ‘Find Agents’ directory back into the main navigation menu to allow sellers captured by the campaign to discover local agents and choose the right one to help them sell their home with confidence.
And if you have products which boost your visibility in ‘Find Agents’ (like Featured Agent), this update will drive even more value from your current membership - at no extra cost.
Localised investment to win in your area
This national campaign activity is just the beginning of our national and local investment throughout 2026. Later in Q1, key regions including the East, South East and London will benefit from additional investment including local billboard and radio advertising. This targeted local activity is designed to help you win movers in your area.
