Why it works

Enquiries arrive at all hours and go cold within the hour, so speed of first response drives conversion more than anything - but a system that cannot escalate to a human loses the buyers worth having.

How it makes money

Setup fee + ongoing

How to start

  1. Sit with an agent and learn what separates a serious enquiry from a browser.
  2. Write the qualifying questions: timeframe, finance status, chain position, budget.
  3. Build the intake form and the automatic first response in Make or Zapier.
  4. Reply within minutes - speed of first contact decides most of these.
  5. Use ChatGPT to score responses against the criteria, never to invent them.
  6. Route qualified leads straight to the agent's phone and everything else to nurture.
  7. Keep a human path available; a serious buyer must never be trapped in automation.
  8. Log every lead and outcome in the CRM so the scoring can be checked against reality.
  9. Review the rules monthly against which leads actually converted.
  10. Never let the automation make representations about a property.
  11. Price per seat or per qualified lead, agreed in advance.
