For sale signs do a great job of showcasing that a home is for sale. But that’s really it. Your average Realtor’s for sale sign has the brokerage logo, the Realtor’s name, a phone number and maybe a website address. That’s it.

Sometimes you see a flyer box attached to the sign but more often than not, the flyer box is empty.

Today’s consumers want information and they want it fast.

Realtor.ca — If you’re in Canada, the consumer might be standing outside of a property (or have driven by it) and want to know a little bit of information about it. Usually the price, lot size or how big the home is. Using Realtor.ca’s app they can bring up the map and find the property very quickly (especially if they are standing outside of it). From there they can find all of the details that they want.

In many cases, they got the information they need and moved on. None of their details passed onto the listing agent, they remain anonymous.

Today’s tech savvy agents are using technology to engage with those consumers right there in real time. But those agents are not only promoting their listing, they are also gathering the lead details of those same consumers who want answers to a few questions.

Using an IMRE.ca A.I. chatbot to engage with people passing by is a fantastic way to answer consumers questions 24/7 and get you their lead details.

Here’s how it works.

You put an IMRE sign topper on your for sale sign, like Jaime’s below;

Then, when people text the bot’s phone number (in Jaime’s case, her bot’s number is 778–721–5641) the A.I. assistant responds in real time.

The IMRE A.I. assistant can read and understand the questions the consumer is asking and respond accordingly.

But the chatbot is also slowly gathering the consumer’s details and sending them to the Realtor as a lead.

Right off the bat, the chatbot has the consumer’s cell phone number. But as the conversation continues it will ask questions like “what’s your name” that most people generally answer because it is simply polite to. Now you have their name.

If they ask for a file of some sort, like a photo, feature sheet, floor plan or oil tank certificate the A.I. chatbot will ask for their email. Most people think that is a fair trade, as they do want the file they asked for. So they generally give their email and the bot emails the file they requested, and BCC’s you. Now you have their email address.

The goal is to answer the questions of the consumer, quickly and accurately but also to gather their details so that you can take over and do what you do best — sell the property.

Using an IMRE A.I. Assistant chatbot with a sign topper you can gather mobile numbers, names, email addresses and much more.
