How digital agents are crushing it with real estate prospecting

Ever wonder how some real estate agents seem to click with everyone?

While traditional prospecting methods like door knocking and cold calling have long been staples of the industry, digital-first approaches are rewriting the rules and reshaping how agents connect with potential clients. 

At the heart of this shift? Tools like Realtair’s Market Updates. They’re making it easier for agents to share information that actually matters to their clients, in a way that feels personal and right on time.

Why change how we connect?

Traditional prospecting often requires a significant commitment of time and resources, with no guaranteed return on investment. Cold calls can interrupt a person’s day, often ending in rejection, while mailers might go unnoticed among the clutter of physical mail. These strategies are intrusive and fail to leverage the power of data and personalisation that modern clients crave.

That’s where Realtair’s digital prospecting shines. It allows agents to cut through the noise and deliver exactly what clients are looking for. Lee Woodward, a real estate trainer and founder of The Complete Salesperson, captures this sentiment perfectly: “What makes Market Updates effective is that the information is a direct one-to-one prospecting that is relevant, personalised and warm. [It’s] the very best way to claim the doors of your area and secure future business.”

The Game Changer: Market Updates

Realtair’s Market Updates have fundamentally changed the way agents engage with potential vendors. These updates deliver targeted, relevant insights about a property, including market sentiment and comparable sales, directly to a prospective vendor’s inbox or phone. The ability to generate these updates in just two minutes allows agents to increase their efficiency dramatically.

Market Updates are not only cost-effective but also respect the client’s personal space, providing them with information that is both timely and pertinent. They act as a bridge, connecting what clients need with how agents can serve those needs effortlessly. As agents embrace these digital tools, they find themselves not only keeping up with the industry but leading it. 

Shane Slater, Co-Founder of Realtair, advocates for this approach: “As agents, we need to stop asking our future potential clients if they are looking to sell… We should be the agents that provide them with great relevant sales information, so when they become a seller, they call us for an appraisal.”

Building long-lasting client relationships

Realtair offers genuine value that speaks directly to your client’s interests and needs. This approach allows you to step away from being just a service provider and become a trusted advisor, an ally on their property journey. With every Market Update, you’re showing prospective vendors that you’re not just about the sale; you’re about their success and satisfaction.

Timing is everything in real estate, and digital tools make sure you’re never offbeat. Market Updates alert you the moment a prospective vendor engages with your content, allowing you to reach out exactly when they’re interested. This is more than making a phone call; you want to start a conversation that counts, one poised to impact decisions.

The path to real estate prospecting excellence

To remain competitive, adopting digital tools has become a necessity for modern agents. Realtair shows how technology can be leveraged to optimise real estate prospecting efforts, leading to increased productivity and enhanced client relationships. Agents who embrace these tools carve out a formidable presence in an industry that’s constantly reinventing itself.
