Hi all— I’ve been struggling with slow response to new inquiries and I know a lot of people here have been too.I spent some time fixing it last week, and here’s how I solved it (for less than $10/m):
- Do an instant SMS: “Hey {{name}}, saw your inquiry about {{property}} — when’s a good time to chat?”
- Connect Gmail → WhatsApp to auto-send it within 5 seconds of a new lead.
- If no reply in 10 min, follow up with one relevant comp (not 10).
Most agents don’t lose deals because their leads are bad—they lose them because they reply too late.This 3-step setup doubled my booked calls in a week.If anyone wants the setup steps or my exact template, happy to share here.
