MARKETING?
HOW DOES THIS WORK
BENEFITSPotential buyers text a "keyword" to the
short code, and immediately get detailed home information sent to their mobile phone. More importantly, the listing agent (our client) receives the potential buyers' information in return. The buyers' info is stored in 2 locations:
It is sent to the agent's cell phone in the form of a text message or email, allowing the agent to contact the buyer immediately.
The buyer's info is also stored on encrypted servers and is available through the realtors' password-protected portal to the system.
BENEFITS
Realtors can use their data bases to transmit important information directly to their customers concisely and conveniently.
Use Text messaging to send property updates, new listing alerts, promote open houses, and compile referrals to your database.
The broadcast feature of the platform is obviously an innovative marketing solution, but the platform provides more than simple marketing., it is a powerful data aggregation tool for detailed market analysis.
Each digital inquiry made by a potential customer results in a data set that includes the customer's contact info as well as the time and location from which the inquiry emanated.
This real-time data aggregate allows for comprehensive analysis of customer behavior, helping to identify individual habits or larger macro trends of a target group that will help to focus and customize future marketing.

You sign up with a text campaign and over the ensuing week, text campaign shows you that you have been receiving a preponderance of drive by inquiries on weekdays from 8:00 to 10:00 AM.

You modify your open house schedule accordingly and execute the sale.

QR CODES
WHAT IS QR CODES
How QR Codes Function Think of QR codes as the barcodes currently read by the cashier at your local grocery store. Those codes contain product information such as pricing, sku, inventory info, etc.; scanning the info enables them to move you quickly thru checkout, and if you are part of the grocery store loyalty/discount program, then it also uploads a history of your purchases to your account.
QR CODES
This allows the grocery chain to provide you with special offers related to the types of purchases you make, it helps them see how often you visit their store, and it helps them with inventory/purchasing management. QR codes are the same thing – but these are scannable by cell phones – and any company can put whatever information inside the code that they would like.
QR CODES
QR Codes storing addresses and URLs may appear in magazines, on signs, buses, business cards or just about any object that users might need information about. Users with a camera phone equipped with the correct reader software can scan the image of the QR Code causing the phone’s browser to launch and redirect to the programmed URL.
QR CODES
A QR code is a 2 dimensional barcode that looks like a box with black and white squares in random order. Almost looks like a piece of modern art. QR stands for “Quick Response” and was invented in Japan to keep track of automotive parts at DENSO corporation.
