Keep Your Potential Purchasers Connected & Close More Sales
Powerful SMS & MMS communication for real estate agents across Australia. Instantly notify potential purchasers of new listings, send appointment reminders, and boost lead conversion, all with the simple power of a text message. Below is a quick Q&A..
Why is SMS better than email or phone calls for real estate?
It's all about speed and response rates. Emails get lost in crowded inboxes and phone calls go unanswered. SMS messages have a 98% open rate, usually within minutes. For urgent updates like new listings matching client criteria or last-minute appointment changes, nothing beats the instant reach of a text message.
How do we notify clients about new properties?
It's simple and effective. Log into your account, upload you interested buyers list, compose your text message, preview, and hit send. Clients get instant notifications about properties that matter to them. And you can personalise each message to the buyer using the Values placeholders! Easy to do!
Can we use this to improve lead follow-up and conversion?
Absolutely! Sending timely follow-up messages after property viewings or initial inquiries can significantly boost your conversion rates. A personalised text like, "Hi John, thanks for viewing the property today. Any questions about the home or the area? Happy to help!" keeps you top-of-mind with prospects.
Is the system easy for busy real estate professionals?
We designed it with busy agents in mind! Our platform is web-based, so there's no software to install. It's incredibly user-friendly. You can easily upload client lists from a spreadsheet, create message templates for common scenarios like appointment reminders and property alerts, and send texts from any computer, tablet, or phone.
Is it affordable for our real estate business?
Yes! We have transparent, pay-as-you-go pricing. There are no setup fees, no monthly contracts, and no hidden charges. You only pay for the texts you send. It's a very cost-effective way to stay connected with all your clients and prospects throughout the sales process.
We have our own CRM system. Can we use SMS Express with that?
Yes, and we have many real estate agencies already doing this. Most modern real estate CRM systems will allow you to add in what's called API keys from third-party platforms like SMS Express. Your IT person can easily set this up, or we can certainly help you do this at no charge.
I want SMS to come 'from' my mobile number so replies come back to my phone.
No problem. The SMS Express platform allows you to change the Sender ID (like a caller ID) to show the SMS coming "from" your number. In fact 99% of our real estate agency customers do this. This does now require verification, but you can apply right from your account in the Senders menu.
But what if I have questions or need help?
We're right here at your service 7 days a week. If you need assistance, call our manager Kerryn on 1300 668 287.
