Real estate agents are always looking for ways to increase their lead generation to grow their businesses. After all, every sale was once a lead at the very top of your pipeline, and you never know who may be ready to buy! While there are many methods for capturing leads, one that is proven to be very effective is using text or call signs.
Text or call capture signs provide a way for agents to connect with potential buyers and sellers in a more direct way than traditional marketing channels. By utilizing this option, real estate agents can reach out to leads quickly, efficiently, and reliably – all while providing an excellent customer experience. It also empowers people to access the real estate agent’s information directly when they see the sign or to take a picture of it and send it to a friend who may be in the market for a home.
In this post, we will discuss what text or call capture signs are, how they work, and how real estate agents can use text or call capture signs as part of their real estate lead generation strategy.
What Are Text or Call Capture Signs?
Text or call capture signs are a powerful tool for real estate agents to gain leads. They provide the option for potential leads to either connect with you via text (e.g., “Text HOME2000 to 317-886-1288 for more information”) or via call (e.g., “Call 317-886-1288 to learn more”). This allows people to choose the way they would prefer to be contacted, which is a great tool for real estate agents to have as they reach out to follow up. That way you never have to worry about initially calling someone who would rather receive texts or vice versa.
Text or call capture signs allow agents to easily share pictures and property data with potential buyers. This is a bonus for sellers and also allows agents to connect with not only potential buyers for a particular property but other buyers who have just started their search (but have not yet started working with an agent).
What Else Can Text or Call Capture Signs Do?
Text or call capture signs can be used to build relationships with potential leads. If a new lead uses one, that’s one more lead in your pipeline, but they can do more than that! Because text or call capture signs can be tied to a specific property, it can let you know about what type of property your new and even old leads are most interested in. For example, if you have a lead that has responded to a text or call capture sign for a home with 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, you can use that to start engaging them about the home that they are seeking. While that home might not turn out to be a great fit, you can help them find one that is ideal for them by asking the right questions. Using this information, you can engage potential customers and create a lasting relationship with them by following up when similar listings go on the market. They’ll appreciate that you think of them when you see listings that might be a good fit!
Texts or call capture signs are a powerful marketing tool for real estate agents looking for more leads — they’re a fast, efficient, personalized way of connecting with potential buyers or sellers.
