Performance Standards
Zillow MINIMUM STANDARDS:
- 4% conversion rate
- 25% answer rate
- 10% of total lead that move to ‘met with customer’ status referred to ZHL
- IE: You get 60 leads in 6 months. 25 of those leads move to 'met with'. You need 2.5 ZHL Pre-approvals
- ANY lead you refer to ZHL counts- it doesn’t have to be a Zillow lead
EXIT Unlimited’s Standards: the same standards we’ve been running, with the exception of ZHL intro.
- Answer rate: 60%
- 10% conversion (or the minimum team conversion. We have historically run a 12-15% conversion)
- 10- 20% referral to ZHL. They will send us more leads if we send more to ZHL. Remember, they don’t have to get pre-approved. Just a warm intro and handoff. The consumer can decide from there.
How to maximize this program:
- Nurture—average lead time conversion on this program is 3-6 months.
- Remember- when you get that call today, it is a paycheck 3-6 months down the road
- This is a nurture program
- The goal here is to meet the lead. You have zero emotional connection to a lead you have never met. Real estate is an emotional business
- 75% of people work with the 1st agent they meet- NOT who they talk to, email, or Text
- Goal: set the appointment
- A,L,M (appointment, location, motivation)
- Set the appt. ASAP
- DO NOT let the appointment get too far into the future
- Appointments that are set more than 24 hours out, have a very high cancellation rate
Things that will get you removed from the lead rotation:
- Remember to follow ALM
- Set appointments (6/10 leads should be set for an appt)
- Update your CRM regularly
- NOT using FUB for texting, calling, emailing
- The average lead will take 3-6 months. Some will take longer, some less.
- Don't sleep on long term leads.
- 50%+ of all leads in our industry convert after 180 days (6 months+).
- However, Zillow is a very 'down funnel' lead generation system
- Lack of conversion: less than 10% can lead to pause on program
- We reccomend sticking to the scripts- you will have clients that ask questions which get you off balanced. But, try to get back on script as soon as possible
The basics are to:
- Be enthusiastic and answer the phone
- Follow ALM
- Set the appointment
- Update your CRM
- stage
- timeframe
- notes
- create an appointment and deal card (to get them into your SISU pipeline
