8. Staying Organized When Receiving a Lead Keep a good record of follow-up with all leads: Is the lead ready now? Should I call back in a week? Two weeks? 6 months? Have I sent a follow-up note after each contact or no contact? What is my follow-up plan for this lead?

9. Staying Organized When Receiving a Lead Update my lead tracking sheet AND SellMyHouse.com Customer Service whenever there is a change, additional information, a new development or some critical follow-up.

10. Introductory Activity For New Lead Upon receiving lead, immediately send an introductory email and follow-up with a quick phone call to introduce yourself and give the prospect contact info. This is the first contact with lead.

11. Introductory Activity for New Lead The first phone call usually results in a message left on a voice mail/machine. Hello Client Name, this is Drew Dunn, the local affiliate for SellMyHouse.com. I received the information you filled out on one of our websites regarding your house and wanted to contact you to gather some more information about your situation. I also sent you an email so you can reach me at 555- 5555 or by email at your convenience. I look forward to hearing from you and helping you figure out the best solution to getting your house sold.

12. Introductory Activity for New Lead The next step is to follow up the first email with a second email and a second phone call. The second phone call is usually made in the evening to try and catch the prospect at home. It is very important NOT to push a listing in the initial stages of a discussion. Many do not understand the investor purchase process and need it explained to them. When they understand this process most will figure out that a traditional listing and possible online auction is a better solution.

13. Contact/No Contact The lead usually takes one of two directions at this point: Contact with the lead No Contact with the lead
