- Texting is a simple way to gauge where someone is and if they’re ready to sell. By contacting them regularly, they get to know, like and trust us.
- If we’re going to use text messages in our follow up, there has to be a consistent pattern of contact. Block out time in your schedule to make sure you’re always doing phone calls or voicemail drops. We can also hire someone to text for us.
