3 When Does Initial Call Result in Contact - Minute Analysis * Source: InsideSales.com / MIT Lead Response Study Your odds of connecting with a lead in the first 5 minutes after they submit their information is 5 times higher than if you wait just 5 more minutes and it then continues to drop at alarming rates.

4 Accept the lead and call the prospect immediately if at all possible. If you do not make contact on the initial call, plan to call 3-4 times in that first hour and up to seven times the first day (depending on what time the lead comes in) Do not leave a voicemail today, attempt to make contact with the live person at all costs. Buyer Lead – First ContactIf you have not made a connection by days end, add the lead to the LeadRouter action plan “Buyer Lead – First Contact” BEFORE THE END OF THE DAY. This will send your next two follow-up emails automatically.

5 Internet Lead Response - Best Practices If you didn’t use LeadRouter, Send an email to EVERY LEAD you received yesterday FIRST THING IN THE MORNING. The content of the email should be as follows: Hi! Thanks for requesting more information on one of our property listings yesterday. I wanted to confirm that I have received your request and I have made a couple attempts to contact you by phone. I am available to provide you with more information or even to get you in for a showing on that property or any property that may be of interest. Remember, I can show you any home, regardless of who has a yard sign up on the house, as I have access to all the homes for sale in our area. Thanks for your interest and I look forward to hearing from you. Call the lead between 8AM -10AM in the morning and leave a voicemail WITH NO CALL BACK NUMBER. In your voicemail, explain that you sent them an email and you would appreciate it if they could respond to the email with they get a moment. Something like… Hi, it’s Jane Doe from Better Homes and Gardens Rand Realty. I saw your request for more information about my listing at {PROPERTY ADDRESS} and just wanted to give you some details you won’t find online. I sent you an email earlier, please give me a call or respond to the email so we might connect. Thanks and have a great day.
