The Scenario

You spend $1,000 on ads. You get 50 leads.

You close 1 deal. You think, “The leads were bad.”

Wrong. The leads weren’t bad; your “Speed to Lead” was too slow.

The 5-Minute Rule

Harvard Business Review analyzed millions of leads. They found that if you don’t respond to a lead within 5 minutes, your chance of qualifying them drops by 400%.

In any competitive market, 5 minutes is an eternity.

How We Fix The Leaky Bucket

We build systems that ensure zero leads slip through the cracks.

  1. Lead Validation: We use scripts to automatically check if a phone number is valid before it even hits your CRM.
  2. Instant Round-Robin: The lead is instantly assigned to the available agent, and their phone rings simultaneously.
  3. The “Nurture Sequence”: The 15 people who said “I’m just looking”? We put them into an automated email/SMS drip campaign that sends them value updates every week.

Six months later, when they are ready to buy, guess who is at the top of their inbox? You.

Don’t let your ad spend go to waste. Automate the follow-up.
