• Manually reply to text messages and send emails as needed to engage potential clients—while automated texts and emails are sent out, prompt calls are the priority for speed to lead.
• Use our Leadsimple CRM system, which handles outbound calls and tracks lead status.
• Report any issues immediately—do not assume things are set a certain way.
• Use state-specific phone numbers provided through Leadsimple CRM (requires both desktop and mobile apps).
