Takeaways + Tactics

1. Most of the magic takes place in the 12-18 month period after you generate a lead.
2. Make your profile photo and description consistent across social platforms.
3. Don’t get obsessed with pro-quality on social media - authenticity often beats professionalism.

On this episode we discussed:

• Building multi-platform customer journeys with digitization
• The 12-18 month tail in lead nurture and how agents miss opportunities
• Digital handshakes and combining high-tech with high touch
• Building a volume knob in your lead platform
• The relationship between tracking and conversion rates

Just because someone isn’t planning to make a move in the next 3 months, that doesn’t mean they’re a worthless lead. To make sure no lead is left behind, you need to leverage with digitization and systems. This will allow you to create multi-platform customer journeys, and harness the magic of the 18-month lead nurture process. Lead with the willingness to provide value and take pride in that, because leads reveal themselves through those conversations.
