What Is Connections℠ Plus?
Imagine having everything you need to successfully generate leads, follow up and nurture client relationships—all in one place. In simple terms, that’s exactly what Connections℠ Plus is.
Lead generation can be tough at any stage in your career. At its core, Connections℠ Plus was designed to connect real estate agents with active buyers searching for homes in their local ZIP code, giving you access to high-quality, ready-to-engage prospects.
How Can Connections℠ Plus Help New Agents?
If you’re new to the business, you might be wondering what this means for you. Let’s look at the data.
According to our #ThrivePastFive research, 70% of successful new agents—those closing seven or more transactions a year—invest in online leads every month. While choosing where to place your dollars can be tricky, this statistic shows that agents are finding success by prioritizing consistent online lead generation to get the most bang for their buck.
Rather than spinning your wheels, hoping your online and offline leads will net a successful deal, agents can get a boost by investing in the high-quality leads offered by Connections℠ Plus.
3 Ways Connections℠ Plus Gives Your Business a Boost
Still wondering if this powerful, all-in-one tool is right for you? Here are three ways it can help agents build new business and get established.
1. Connect directly with motivated buyers in your local market.
To meet more people in your local area, you must get your boots on the ground and start networking. But getting your networking practice up and running takes time and consistency. As you’re establishing yourself, Connections℠ Plus helps you skip the waiting game by connecting you directly with local prospective buyers looking for homes.
This takes the stress off of squeezing in a mixer or networking event—or even hovering over your computer to see who’s responding. The platform will send you push notifications directly to your smartphone when you get a new buyer lead, so you can take action right away.
2. You’ll never sweat your speed-to-lead.
Fast follow-up is critical: A study from CallHippo found the best time to reach out to a lead via phone is within an hour of their form submission. If you respond after an hour, you are eight times less likely to get in touch with the lead. Connections℠ Plus can help with lightning-fast customized, automated follow-up emails, so you can stay focused on the task or meeting at hand while ensuring your leads are being nurtured—any time of day or night. The platform sends responses 24/7, so buyers receive immediate contact. That means you stay competitive without hovering over your phone.
3. Your leads won’t be a mystery.
Say goodbye to cold outreach and take the guesswork out of knowing who your leads are and what they’re interested in before you meet. When you get a buyer lead from Connections℠ Plus, you also get the lead’s contact information, the properties they’ve been looking at, and, in some cases, even direct links to their social media profiles.
By having these tidbits of knowledge about your buyer lead before you even contact them, you can start identifying ways to best support their needs and goals and get a head start on developing a strong client relationship—all without having to do extensive, time-consuming research on your own. This gives you a built-in conversation opener and a fast track to building rapport by understanding what your lead is looking for.
