Today, we focus on two major points that are critical to great lead follow-up: lead quality and leaving messages. Major mistakes that cost you money are made every day in these two categories. Adopt these two points, and you’ll start to see your business turn around almost instantly.
6. Leads are either A, B or C quality
Learn the difference. The most important thing to know is that you never, ever sit on an “A” lead. The world stops for an “A” lead. Do not let your “drip system” go on auto-pilot for these leads.
“B” leads have logical conditions and need weekly follow-up, and “C” leads should be called daily. Listen to the podcast to find out why!
7. Leave messages when you follow up
If you don’t, they’ll never know you were trying to make contact with them and might conclude that you are not interested in working with them.
Keep calling until you do find them and get all the facts about their situation. When you reach them, make it about them by offering them value and taking that step of asking for the appointment.
You can improve your income drastically by being furiously fast and relentless in your lead follow-up. Don’t do what everyone else does.
Don’t rely on digital communication — go knock on the door if you can’t find them. Stop chatting about how they have a golden retriever, and you do too. That doesn’t win the day.
Asking qualifying questions that lead to solutions for the client’s real estate needs are the hallmarks of a true professional.
