CINC Marketing: Breaking News.

80
00:04:53.060 --> 00:05:09.379
James Terry: So I was hanging out late night last night. I was at Waffle House. Not what you think, but yeah. Waffle House at 11 o'clock last night, and a celebrity in the advertising world walked in. If anyone is familiar with Jake from State Farm, and no joke.

81
00:05:09.480 --> 00:05:20.459
James Terry: I would not have gotten a picture. I don't usually do this kind of thing. I've seen, you know, whatever especially you out in California like you run into these people. If Patrick Mahomes had walked in, I would not have cared. But

82
00:05:20.660 --> 00:05:24.849
James Terry: Jake from State Farm actually his name's Kevin for those that don't know super friendly Guy.

83
00:05:24.850 --> 00:05:26.549
CINC Marketing: Let down. What a letdown.

84
00:05:27.330 --> 00:05:28.440
James Terry: Super friendly.

85
00:05:28.440 --> 00:05:30.679
Daniel Lott: He would have legally changed his name to Jake.

86
00:05:31.070 --> 00:05:31.750
CINC Marketing: Yeah.

87
00:05:32.540 --> 00:05:35.539
James Terry: We've. It's a good point. We've had. Clients do it for their branding.

88
00:05:35.540 --> 00:05:38.840
Jeff Walker: Jake lives here, I take it. Jake's Jake's here in Atlanta.

89
00:05:40.130 --> 00:05:40.570
James Terry: I.

90
00:05:41.180 --> 00:05:41.900
Jeff Walker: You didn't know.

91
00:05:41.900 --> 00:05:58.513
James Terry: I do not know. Our our conversation was brief. His entourage did not look quite as friendly as he was, so they were cool with the picture, but sometimes it's 11 o'clock, and you say I need a waffle, and you just call up your driver, and you know you roll in 4 deep with

92
00:05:58.810 --> 00:05:59.210
CINC Marketing: Above.

93
00:05:59.210 --> 00:06:02.270
James Terry: House for a coffee, you know. That was last.

94
00:06:03.270 --> 00:06:03.940
CINC Marketing: Last night.

95
00:06:03.940 --> 00:06:04.330
James Terry: Yeah.

96
00:06:04.330 --> 00:06:05.230
CINC Marketing: It. Yeah.

97
00:06:05.480 --> 00:06:11.300
CINC Marketing: And I can verify that because he's wearing the same shirt he had on in the office. So yeah.

98
00:06:11.300 --> 00:06:11.680
James Terry: Yeah.

99
00:06:11.680 --> 00:06:14.920
CINC Marketing: Jake, if Jake, if you're on you, wanna unmute.

100
00:06:15.420 --> 00:06:24.409
James Terry: I was gonna say, so ken so be prepared. We're buddies now, me and Jake, like we're we're best friends, and so he's gonna be our guest speaker next next month.

101
00:06:24.690 --> 00:06:28.879
James Terry: I don't know what value he'll bring at all. But come on, look at that smile.

102
00:06:28.880 --> 00:06:29.419
CINC Marketing: Got you?

103
00:06:30.800 --> 00:06:33.690
CINC Marketing: Good day. Sync, pro is there?

104
00:06:35.430 --> 00:06:35.930
CINC Marketing: So.

105
00:06:35.930 --> 00:06:45.280
James Terry: That was the quick thing that I know, Harry. I showed that picture this morning in a meeting to our team. Harry wanted to work that in here. I know Dan has some stuff. He's very.

106
00:06:45.280 --> 00:06:47.390
CINC Marketing: I really worked on the segway. Yeah.

107
00:06:48.894 --> 00:06:59.699
James Terry: Well, I just wanted to say real briefly about Jeff Walker. And we'll get to him in a second. But for those that don't know. In my opinion, Jeff is one of the best communicators at Sync.

108
00:06:59.700 --> 00:07:20.819
James Terry: and literally from day one on on literally his 1st day here he gave an awesome presentation. He he showed himself as being one of the breast presenters that we've ever had on on staff here at Sync. Now this conversation, this, this webinar, is going to be much more conversational than it is a presentation.

109
00:07:21.110 --> 00:07:45.190
James Terry: But I just wanted you guys to know, like, in terms of Jeff's communication. He's very good at addressing the so what question like? Not just going into what's available? But like, why does it matter to you? And he, he really is good at explaining the value of everything that he's worked on, and everything that's coming down. So just wanted to let you guys know for those that don't know who our speaker is? What what Jeff's gonna be bringing today.

110
00:07:45.190 --> 00:07:45.610
Jeff Walker: Jane.

111
00:07:45.610 --> 00:07:46.190
James Terry: Know.

112
00:07:46.190 --> 00:08:08.650
Jeff Walker: Appreciate it. And I'm in product at Sync. And so I can get you the information about where we're going with the product. And and this, you know, the this office hours is really about just having open conversations addressing questions versus having prepared content. But we're excited about what we're doing and the projects that we have in progress. And so this is more of an opportunity to

113
00:08:10.070 --> 00:08:20.489
Jeff Walker: talk about the future. The things that are going on behind the scenes to get feedback from you guys and ask questions and get your input about what's important to you as well. So excited to have this conversation.

114
00:08:21.050 --> 00:08:27.259
CINC Marketing: Yeah. And if Jeff freezes, don't worry, he's an AI so he's just rebooting

115
00:08:27.777 --> 00:08:32.500
CINC Marketing: but yeah, that's 1 of the things that I'm sure he'll be talking about, but I will.

116
00:08:32.500 --> 00:08:33.199
Jeff Walker: Yeah, he's really, like.

117
00:08:33.200 --> 00:08:43.359
CINC Marketing: James, I will, I will echo what James said, that Jeff has done just an amazing job of formalizing things in the system. And really.

118
00:08:43.500 --> 00:08:46.319
CINC Marketing: you know, testing our way to success and

119
00:08:46.795 --> 00:08:50.219
CINC Marketing: having the data to answer the questions that we all ask. So

120
00:08:50.623 --> 00:08:54.030
CINC Marketing: I've you know I I love the work you've done, Jeff, with.

121
00:08:54.665 --> 00:08:57.744
CINC Marketing: I like the work you've done, Jeff, with.

122
00:08:58.650 --> 00:09:08.289
CINC Marketing: you know, highlighting leads that are taking high high value actions and really just helping in clients to know you know, who you should follow up with when

123
00:09:08.460 --> 00:09:15.202
CINC Marketing: and well, I know we had a great example of that recently that I know.

124
00:09:16.170 --> 00:09:18.489
CINC Marketing: Dan wants to put a handsome spin on.

125
00:09:19.170 --> 00:09:20.170
Daniel Lott: Alright!

126
00:09:20.170 --> 00:09:21.130
CINC Marketing: Out there.

127
00:09:22.770 --> 00:09:24.420
Daniel Lott: Good segue there, Harry.

128
00:09:24.420 --> 00:09:25.000
CINC Marketing: Thank you.

129
00:09:25.000 --> 00:09:25.340
Daniel Lott: Right, yeah.

130
00:09:25.340 --> 00:09:27.199
CINC Marketing: Almost as good as the Jake picture.

131
00:09:28.010 --> 00:09:52.120
Daniel Lott: Yeah, all right. So one of the things in the client marketing department is, we always get excited when one of our clients actually, throughout the entire company is we always get excited when one of our clients sells a expensive house and or represents the buyer or the seller. Either way, they're excited about about it.

132
00:09:52.846 --> 00:09:54.604
Daniel Lott: We've also started.

133
00:09:55.840 --> 00:10:03.540
Daniel Lott: if you sell a million dollar house you can get cookies. So talk to your account manager about that. But anyway, so.

134
00:10:03.540 --> 00:10:04.110
CINC Marketing: It's.

135
00:10:04.410 --> 00:10:08.040
Daniel Lott: Very good cookies delivered to your door, so.

136
00:10:08.040 --> 00:10:10.269
CINC Marketing: They won't let us have any of the cookies.

137
00:10:10.370 --> 00:10:12.200
CINC Marketing: The cookies are only for people.

138
00:10:13.470 --> 00:10:21.449
Daniel Lott: All right. Okay? So yeah. So anyway. So you can get talk to am about that. If you sell a million dollar house, $900,000. No, no, that'd be 1 million.

139
00:10:22.250 --> 00:10:28.229
Daniel Lott: all right. So we get excited about when we sell 1 million dollar houses, 5 million dollar houses. Whatnot.

140
00:10:28.310 --> 00:10:52.660
Daniel Lott: Usually it's a million dollars is less rare than 5 million dollars. But anyway, so last week we heard, or 2 weeks ago, we heard about a sale that one of the one of our clients represented the buyer in the largest residential real estate transaction in the history of Charleston, which is very exciting.

141
00:10:52.900 --> 00:10:58.299
Daniel Lott: It was a 21 million dollar transaction, 21.2 5

142
00:10:58.640 --> 00:11:05.680
Daniel Lott: 1 million dollar transaction. It was actually the house went for 18.2 5 million.

143
00:11:05.900 --> 00:11:21.390
Daniel Lott: the furniture and all the other stuff inside. Maybe the stuff in the fridge they kept that I don't know, but that was an extra 3 million dollars, which is pretty remarkable. So it was the most expensive house home transaction. So

144
00:11:21.730 --> 00:11:28.989
Daniel Lott: we are, especially in the client marketing department. We're very excited to see that it was a sync lead. It was somebody who

145
00:11:29.240 --> 00:11:35.359
Daniel Lott: came to their site became a lead because of sync advertising, and

146
00:11:35.550 --> 00:11:43.436
Daniel Lott: what was remarkable remarkable about it is that it kind of fit in with all of the

147
00:11:44.410 --> 00:11:53.680
Daniel Lott: you know, if, if, like, we have a plan on what we're doing, we're not just randomly making up stuff. It's a plan. And it this is like the exact

148
00:11:54.540 --> 00:12:02.660
Daniel Lott: the the exact steps that took place fit exactly what we're trying to do. So I'm just going to walk you through

149
00:12:02.960 --> 00:12:18.840
Daniel Lott: what sync does on behalf of all of our clients? Not just Steve Smith, who sold the house for 21 million dollars, but for all you guys. So you know, we call it hyperlocal micro targeting, which is just a fancy way of

150
00:12:18.980 --> 00:12:30.920
Daniel Lott: describing what we do. And so hyperlocal is so, Steve Smith. When he started he gave us 10 areas. He started in August 2,016, 9 years ago.

151
00:12:31.020 --> 00:12:32.960
Daniel Lott: He gave us 10 areas

152
00:12:33.480 --> 00:13:01.949
Daniel Lott: from there we have expanded his account to 171 Ad. Groups. This includes additional areas that are within. Like he'll give us Charleston. We'll drill down to specific areas within Charleston create ad groups for those. And the micro targeting would be the niches. And that is the important thing here. So a niche is, instead of what our competitors do is they get the 10 areas.

153
00:13:02.250 --> 00:13:10.500
Daniel Lott: Let's throw it up there and just leave it there. And you know it's fine. Let's do a mediocre job. Who cares.

154
00:13:10.500 --> 00:13:11.399
CINC Marketing: That's probably right.

155
00:13:11.400 --> 00:13:13.000
Daniel Lott: We don't care for our clients doesn't matter.

156
00:13:13.000 --> 00:13:17.060
CINC Marketing: That's what's painted on the wall. Let's do a mediocre job. Who cares.

157
00:13:17.060 --> 00:13:17.770
Daniel Lott: For our clients.

158
00:13:17.770 --> 00:13:18.390
CINC Marketing: Since.

159
00:13:18.390 --> 00:13:33.489
Daniel Lott: So, anyway. So but so Charleston would get one ad group, for in other companies. So with us we have these different niches, such as condos in Charleston, luxury homes in in Charleston, gated homes in Charleston.

160
00:13:34.220 --> 00:13:36.820
Daniel Lott: or Historic homes in in Charleston.

161
00:13:36.820 --> 00:13:38.679
CINC Marketing: How are we working with the duo?

162
00:13:38.680 --> 00:13:42.260
CINC Marketing: That one in mind, Dan, to do all those ads.

163
00:13:43.170 --> 00:13:52.390
Daniel Lott: How? Because we have invested millions of dollars in technology where we are able to. It's it's

164
00:13:52.620 --> 00:14:03.429
Daniel Lott: if you're doing it manually. It would be impossible. It literally be impossible. You would need, like a staff of a thousand to do all these things. But because we've created the technology over a dozen years. We're able to do it.

165
00:14:03.910 --> 00:14:11.739
Daniel Lott: Not minutes. But you know, in, you know, an hour or so it or just in a in a time. That's gonna make you want to do it all right. So

166
00:14:12.930 --> 00:14:25.649
Daniel Lott: historic Charleston historic homes. So we created the Charleston Historic Homes Ad. Group in September 2,016 for this client. Fast forward! 9 years.

167
00:14:26.070 --> 00:14:33.310
Daniel Lott: Lot lot has happened 9 years. But one thing that happened was 9 years later. On November 20, th

168
00:14:33.990 --> 00:14:36.890
Daniel Lott: somebody. A prospective home Buyer.

169
00:14:37.000 --> 00:14:44.329
Daniel Lott: Googled Charleston Battery Houses for sale. Charleston Battery is the historic area of Charleston that called up

170
00:14:44.460 --> 00:14:47.850
Daniel Lott: the landing page of Charleston historic homes.

171
00:14:48.370 --> 00:14:51.970
Daniel Lott: and for a click of 60 cents they

172
00:14:52.290 --> 00:14:59.549
Daniel Lott: access the house that they ended up. They whatever they access to became a lead. And then

173
00:15:00.070 --> 00:15:29.680
Daniel Lott: so we've already done one thing we've already by doing having this Google really likes it. When, like the landing page, that's the page on the website, the keywords, the ads. They all kind of fit together. And so this is a perfect way of this is a perfect use of it. If we would have just said Charleston homes for sale. They probably wouldn't have seen this ad because they were had a specific search. Charleston Battery houses for sale. It went to a more drilled down landing page. All right. So.

174
00:15:29.680 --> 00:15:38.160
CINC Marketing: I do wait. I do think this is important, because I always something I always tell people is, if you aren't using sync, you could be missing out on leads that are too close to buying.

175
00:15:38.570 --> 00:15:41.799
CINC Marketing: because you don't have those hyper local

176
00:15:42.290 --> 00:15:50.519
CINC Marketing: targets in there right like. And you said the cost per the cost per click was 60 cents, which is lower than our average cost per click.

177
00:15:50.710 --> 00:15:54.240
CINC Marketing: But that's what those hyper local ad groups do.

178
00:15:54.540 --> 00:15:58.810
CINC Marketing: you know not as many people. The reason that they're cheaper is because there's fewer people

179
00:15:59.140 --> 00:16:01.660
CINC Marketing: that are doing those ad groups and.

180
00:16:02.530 --> 00:16:12.779
Daniel Lott: Right. Our competitors ads wouldn't show up for a search term, and like a lot of these niches, a lot of these like when we have the hyper local is like homes for sale near

181
00:16:13.450 --> 00:16:18.550
Daniel Lott: what? Like Indian Hills Country Club, or something like that country club, is a good

182
00:16:19.070 --> 00:16:31.509
Daniel Lott: beacon for doing hyper local ads. Nobody else advertises for those. So our clients do. And so they are able to get a lower cost per click, because there's less competition.

183
00:16:31.790 --> 00:16:32.340
Daniel Lott: So.

184
00:16:32.340 --> 00:16:38.550
CINC Marketing: Know those areas because of years of analysis of the data. And we have more data than anyone has.

185
00:16:39.250 --> 00:16:40.300
CINC Marketing: So.

186
00:16:40.300 --> 00:16:41.479
Daniel Lott: That's true, Harry.

187
00:16:41.600 --> 00:16:43.000
Daniel Lott: So true.

188
00:16:43.000 --> 00:16:44.859
CINC Marketing: We thank you. Thank you, Dan.

189
00:16:45.080 --> 00:16:49.880
Daniel Lott: Alright. And so that's that's half of it. And then the other half is

190
00:16:50.680 --> 00:17:00.080
Daniel Lott: on November. It's just the story is amazing. And it's just. It's what our entire company is focused on this story. November 20.th

191
00:17:02.050 --> 00:17:07.259
Daniel Lott: The person became a lead, and it was a Sunday night at 7 30.

192
00:17:07.430 --> 00:17:08.609
CINC Marketing: So.

193
00:17:08.790 --> 00:17:27.670
Daniel Lott: The agent was probably out doing Sunday night things, watching 60 min, or watching football, or whatever it is. So they, the AI, the sync AI, which Jeff Walker personally built, communicated, reached out via text with the client, went back and forth.

194
00:17:27.670 --> 00:17:28.010
Jeff Walker: And over.

195
00:17:28.010 --> 00:17:32.960
Daniel Lott: Over an hour, and set up a appointment

196
00:17:33.590 --> 00:17:40.020
Daniel Lott: for to to talk at 9 o'clock in the morning. The next day the agent

197
00:17:40.250 --> 00:17:42.889
Daniel Lott: called him up at 9 o'clock the next day.

198
00:17:43.130 --> 00:17:46.969
Daniel Lott: and then to to set up an in-person meeting that morning.

199
00:17:47.210 --> 00:17:56.390
Daniel Lott: That meeting happened, and then, 2 weeks later, on December 6th the house was under contract, the most expensive

200
00:17:56.520 --> 00:17:58.430
Daniel Lott: house in the history of Charleston.

201
00:17:58.710 --> 00:18:08.320
Daniel Lott: so I don't. It's you know we we're very excited about this, and it's just because it's all. It's all you know. I kind of glossed over the AI part. But like that's not

202
00:18:08.720 --> 00:18:28.469
Daniel Lott: they didn't, just, you know, accidentally do that, either. They worked years and stuff, making this AI, that it's great and conversational, and we're able to look at what the actual text are. And it's like it seems like it's a real person doing the AI like going back and forth with the the buyer. So that was successful. If any of it

203
00:18:28.990 --> 00:18:44.459
Daniel Lott: would have not been on the the, you know the level. If it was not, it was if it was like the ads were bad. The AI was bad, the transaction wouldn't happen. Both were excellent. That's why the transaction happened was 5 East Battery in in Charleston, and.

204
00:18:44.460 --> 00:18:45.690
Jeff Walker: Picture of the house, Dan.

205
00:18:47.937 --> 00:18:50.739
Daniel Lott: Not not really! No, no, Jeff!

206
00:18:51.240 --> 00:18:52.289
CINC Marketing: I knew somewhere.

207
00:18:53.330 --> 00:18:55.049
CINC Marketing: I can pull it up. I do somewhere.

208
00:18:56.240 --> 00:18:57.350
James Terry: Let's say it's been shared.

209
00:18:57.350 --> 00:18:58.590
Daniel Lott: That's really nice.

210
00:18:58.590 --> 00:18:59.130
James Terry: So.

211
00:18:59.590 --> 00:19:00.190
CINC Marketing: Right now.

212
00:19:00.190 --> 00:19:01.580
Jeff Walker: See it. I can! I.

213
00:19:02.900 --> 00:19:03.350
CINC Marketing: Appreciate it.

214
00:19:03.350 --> 00:19:04.000
Jeff Walker: I pulled.

215
00:19:04.000 --> 00:19:07.250
Daniel Lott: The article is good. Do the one with the jogger in front of it. That's the best.

216
00:19:07.250 --> 00:19:09.320
Jeff Walker: I just found this one. I just found this

217
00:19:10.580 --> 00:19:14.789
Jeff Walker: one. It's this house right? That's the one right.

218
00:19:15.060 --> 00:19:15.750
CINC Marketing: Yeah.

219
00:19:16.670 --> 00:19:18.890
Daniel Lott: Yeah, how about that?

220
00:19:18.890 --> 00:19:21.559
Jeff Walker: This is when I got this is an article about when it got listed.

221
00:19:22.680 --> 00:19:23.580
Daniel Lott: But that is the one.

222
00:19:23.860 --> 00:19:24.729
Daniel Lott: So yeah, that's.

223
00:19:24.730 --> 00:19:28.329
James Terry: You want to paint my house pink and see if I can tack 20 million onto the price tag.

224
00:19:28.980 --> 00:19:32.650
Jeff Walker: Here. Here's the 3 million dollar couch that that got added in

225
00:19:33.800 --> 00:19:39.480
Jeff Walker: I mean 3 million bucks of furniture and furniture. That's that's pretty incredible.

226
00:19:40.540 --> 00:19:42.180
Jeff Walker: I guess that's kind of it, listed.

227
00:19:42.180 --> 00:19:45.510
CINC Marketing: I was in right in it, but I didn't want to pay that much for the furniture.

228
00:19:46.015 --> 00:19:47.520
Daniel Lott: Yeah, okay.

229
00:19:48.520 --> 00:19:50.179
Jeff Walker: Nice, though. Yeah.

230
00:19:50.180 --> 00:19:50.920
Daniel Lott: Pool.

231
00:19:50.920 --> 00:19:51.450
Jeff Walker: There you go!

232
00:19:51.450 --> 00:19:54.690
Daniel Lott: Does look like a house that'd be worth that much, because it's very nice looking house.

233
00:19:55.580 --> 00:20:12.460
CINC Marketing: When I think, too like, you know, you can't downplay the impact of the agents, or or the agent on this, either. Right like this is someone who was ready to buy right away. They don't want to trust someone that you know is unprofessional

234
00:20:12.650 --> 00:20:16.039
CINC Marketing: or anything like that in the sale, and

235
00:20:16.460 --> 00:20:18.690
CINC Marketing: I mean the AI teed it up.

236
00:20:18.960 --> 00:20:27.390
CINC Marketing: and you know, told them, hey, call this person. But then, you know, the Sync client did an amazing job do

237
00:20:27.950 --> 00:20:36.380
CINC Marketing: of Carrie? I mean, you look in. The the notes are very detailed, like the conversation is very helpful, so I mean, it was just impressive

238
00:20:36.520 --> 00:20:43.519
CINC Marketing: all the way around. I think that's, you know, like we succeed when the agents succeed, we want to give people these leads. But then.

239
00:20:44.420 --> 00:20:46.820
CINC Marketing: you know my like this same client

240
00:20:47.160 --> 00:20:54.790
CINC Marketing: knocked it out of the freaking park, and I know him, and and he's a great guy, and he's a smart guy, and I'm so happy for him.

241
00:20:55.040 --> 00:21:13.120
Jeff Walker: And that that's actually, that's a problem area that we've been trying to focus on, too, Harry, which is getting that handoff done when a lead becomes agent ready? Because one in the past, when I've you know, looked deep in the in the data we see about like 50% of leads that

242
00:21:13.240 --> 00:21:35.340
Jeff Walker: hit an agent ready state like they are AI agent ready, or they submit a showing request, don't get contacted after that. And and the reason is because so many of those leads are leads that have been in the system for a while. And so they're not front and center. And so people are usually focused on calling those new leads. But we know this is a long game, and a lot of those leads don't mature for 6 months

243
00:21:36.620 --> 00:21:51.440
Jeff Walker: for a year. And the trick is okay. When that happens, how do we make sure that that doesn't fall through the cracks? How do we make sure that those leads are seen by agents, and action is taken on them. And so we've been working on that. There's still more work to do, though. And so that's that's something that we're still really curious about.

244
00:21:52.840 --> 00:21:56.490
Jeff Walker: how can we help create visibility on those leads?

245
00:21:59.090 --> 00:22:01.600
CINC Marketing: Yeah, and I, you go.

246
00:22:02.830 --> 00:22:13.830
James Terry: Cindy had a question on here. She was asking about what his ad spend is, and it's it's nothing outrageous, it's not. It's not super over the top. It's above average, for sure. I think we're allowed to say like for that market.

247
00:22:14.060 --> 00:22:37.183
James Terry: Obviously the cost per lead. And what should your ad spend be is going to vary from market to market. In this case, in Charleston his ad budget is 1,21250 a month. I think that's all. In 1550. You got some social on there as well, but his total ad budget 1550. And so I just did some quick numbers to say just like what the return on this one lead is.

248
00:22:37.480 --> 00:22:44.090
James Terry: So over the last 9 years at, and I only did it with the 1250 for his for his ad budget.

249
00:22:44.560 --> 00:23:12.340
James Terry: He spent a little over $130,000 in the last decade, generating leads, and this one transaction assuming 2.8% is over 16,000. I'm sorry his $616,000 in his gci. So if in the last 9 years nothing else has come through. He still made 500% return, you know, on his ad spend. If he hasn't sold any other houses yet, I'm sure, isn't the case to to what Harry was just saying.

250
00:23:12.800 --> 00:23:28.839
James Terry: in terms of clearly a very good agent, and is able to help a lot of people. But I just wanted to address Cindy's question, there, what is the ad spend? Our recommendation is almost always depend, you know, in most markets that it ad spend should be higher, just with

251
00:23:29.030 --> 00:23:44.589
James Terry: the amount of demand there is for the traffic, the amount of at times opportunities we have to show the Ad. Most of our clients are under utilizing the the demand that they have and the lead flow that they can get. But wanted to answer that for Cindy, real quick.

252
00:23:47.370 --> 00:23:51.109
CINC Marketing: Yeah. Cool. Cool. Got some great comments going on. Congratulations.

253
00:23:51.110 --> 00:23:51.530
James Terry: Nice.

254
00:23:51.530 --> 00:23:54.110
CINC Marketing: Casey, that is awesome.

255
00:23:55.197 --> 00:23:59.199
CINC Marketing: Yeah. So that's great. Oh, and I guess now is a good time.

256
00:23:59.743 --> 00:24:16.229
CINC Marketing: Congratulations to us. We have set another new record in the amount of time we can ignore, introducing our guest officially, this time clocking in at 25 min. So this is Jeff Walker. He is the chief product officer here at Sync.

CINC Marketing: please, you know, feel free to to drop them in the chat.

260
00:24:42.450 --> 00:24:49.699
Jeff Walker: Sure, and I am seeing the Q. And a questions as well. So I have. I'll be able to address those as well, and

261
00:24:49.850 --> 00:24:57.330
Jeff Walker: there's always so much to do to improve the platform. And we're we're really focused on what are the high value problems that we can solve?

262
00:24:58.260 --> 00:24:59.090
Jeff Walker: Are

263
00:25:01.090 --> 00:25:23.179
Jeff Walker: the the areas we're really focused on right now are around lead nurturing. And so where our platform is about getting great leads and then converting those leads to appointments to set to t you up for transactions. And so that is the area where we focus on the most and where we're trying to both keep leads engaged so that we have more leads, who are building

264
00:25:24.580 --> 00:25:37.879
Jeff Walker: poor with with you and your platform, and 2 making sure that those leads get contacted when they, you know, reach a certain level of maturity. So we're very focused on. Oh, my lights just went off. Hold on a second.

265
00:25:38.150 --> 00:25:38.900
Jeff Walker: Okay.

266
00:25:40.320 --> 00:25:40.700
CINC Marketing: Okay.

267
00:25:40.700 --> 00:25:44.920
Jeff Walker: If you sit still for too long, then the lights go off better.

268
00:25:45.501 --> 00:25:59.420
Jeff Walker: So we're focused on really leveraging AI now. And so we have a big project in play around around building out our lead nurture engine. And so you guys have probably seen

269
00:26:00.790 --> 00:26:25.149
Jeff Walker: in that we've we've made really big strides with sync AI with it, being fully generative right now. So the conversations aren't scripted. They're very natural. We're getting great results from that. And so we're seeing 12% of leads now that are contacted by. Not that AI attempts to contact are getting to an agent ready state. And so that means that all the leads, whether you know leads with good phone numbers, leads with bad phone numbers.

270
00:26:25.755 --> 00:26:27.499
Jeff Walker: Whatever state they're in.

271
00:26:27.890 --> 00:26:36.780
Jeff Walker: 12% are getting to a point where the AI is saying, Hey, this agent should get involved at this point because they lead is asking for something.

272
00:26:36.930 --> 00:26:40.680
Jeff Walker: and so that takes a lot of the work away.

273
00:26:41.970 --> 00:27:01.130
Jeff Walker: absorb more of the work through automations and through the system, so that you can focus more on picking up where you can drive value through quality conversations. And so we've got this. We've we've got our 1st piece that we have our. That Sync AI product is homegrown. So we've built that internally. And

274
00:27:01.250 --> 00:27:19.619
Jeff Walker: that is important for us, because we want that to be just a piece of a broader lead, nurturing solution that is able to communicate through multiple channels and is able to understand everything that's happening with that lead. So everything from

275
00:27:21.530 --> 00:27:39.780
Jeff Walker: conversations that you've had with the lead so making sure that we are recording those conversations and transcribing them so that we can develop the right nurturing plan for those leads to being able to communicate via multiple channels, including outbound voice calling. So those are some of the things that we're working on. So our vision is that

276
00:27:40.220 --> 00:27:45.750
Jeff Walker: when a lead comes in that every lead gets a distinct

277
00:27:45.940 --> 00:28:11.670
Jeff Walker: nurturing plan that is determined for it, based upon everything that we know about that lead. And so we want to get away from like having to set up auto tracks and segmenting, you know. Oh, these leads are in these buckets, but the each lead based upon everything we know about that a next step is determined, and that we can take that next step through automations as much as possible, and then hand those leads off

278
00:28:12.223 --> 00:28:33.220
Jeff Walker: through live transfers, through group texting through whatever method is going to best create that handoff to the agent. And so that that kind of gives you the the big picture. But you know right now, for instance, what the sync AI knows. You know what that leads area is, and it collects information about what some of their preferences are.

279
00:28:33.220 --> 00:28:43.029
Jeff Walker: but the next step is giving it full insights into everything the lead is doing on the site. So right now, for instance, behavioral messaging is something which is kind of

280
00:28:43.540 --> 00:29:10.109
Jeff Walker: dare, I say, like it's somewhat dumb in that a trigger happens. The lead favorites some properties, and it sends out a message. That's a generic message that tries to re-engage that lead. So we want that to be fully integrated into the AI. So the AI is seeing every property the lead is looking at, and then can reach out more contextually, based upon everything that lead is doing. So not just send a generic message, but set.

281
00:29:11.000 --> 00:29:39.599
Jeff Walker: but be able to send something which is most appropriate for everything that lead has done, and whatever conversations have happened with that lead. So it will act much more like a person and assistant than an automation or a computer. And so that's kind of the background. And so there's a lot of pieces that need to come into play there, including we need to have call recordings. We need to be able to have transcripts of those recordings, so that we have all the context of everything that's happened with that lead. If the lead says something on a

282
00:29:41.030 --> 00:29:58.589
Jeff Walker: call like, Oh, I'm going to be ready in June, because that's when I'm taking a new job that that's what goes into the context of the lead of the AI determining when's the right time to follow up and to ask about the job specifically. So are you getting ready for your new job? What are you thinking about, you know, when you want to start looking at homes?

283
00:29:59.057 --> 00:30:04.139
Jeff Walker: And then the handoff piece. And so this is one of the questions that came up around group texting.

284
00:30:04.410 --> 00:30:05.820
Jeff Walker: This is

285
00:30:06.752 --> 00:30:33.069
Jeff Walker: and the voice over IP. So a couple of the questions that came in the Q&A. So far somebody asked about having a fully functional VoIP phone. So on the platform rather than just a dialer and then another question was about being able to do group texting. And these are kind of like these are opportunities for us to try to build that functionality in as a way to best service. This goal of ours. And so, like one of the questions we have is

286
00:30:33.380 --> 00:30:49.629
Jeff Walker: the AI acting more like an assistance right now all the communications happen in one channel. You know that you are on the same text thread as the AI. It might make more sense to have a group text where the AI passes it off to you and introduces you and say, Okay, I'm going to bring in

287
00:30:51.948 --> 00:30:58.409
Jeff Walker: Ethan, to talk more about. You know your your property search. He's our agent and and then

288
00:30:58.880 --> 00:31:27.019
Jeff Walker: we'd still have the advantage, for for the lead. Nurturing is, we would still have perspective of all the conversation, so we'd be able to see what Ethan saying what the AI is saying, what the lead is saying, and then use that context to always be evolving that that lead nurturing. So these are the projects we're working on right now on the on the, on the agent side. And hopefully, that gives you a little bit of perspective on the vision, but we're really trying to make it so that

289
00:31:28.860 --> 00:31:56.859
Jeff Walker: Less work is done. It's more like a model of you. Think about like a Zillow Flex model, where something behind the scenes is doing all this lead nurturing, and it's surfacing it to you when they're ready to talk about going and seeing houses, and that you're picking those up. And then the conversations that you're having are really focused on the leads that have already been nurtured and matured.

290
00:31:59.200 --> 00:32:10.849
CINC Marketing: And I think I think you may have said this a while ago. Jeff. This is one of the things that really kind of snapped it in place for me. I'm more of an ideas, Guy, than a details, Guy, but you said, you know, we want to take

291
00:32:11.110 --> 00:32:27.280
CINC Marketing: want to take sync from like this product that you use to. You know it's a it's a person within your business, right like it's the person who's nurturing leads and letting you know, you know, helping you set your schedule. And to me like that just makes so much sense, you know whether it's

292
00:32:27.780 --> 00:32:30.299
CINC Marketing: you know, like what you just said of us.

293
00:32:31.390 --> 00:32:37.940
CINC Marketing: The the focus on highlighting leads who are taking crucial actions, I think, is

294
00:32:39.110 --> 00:32:42.949
CINC Marketing: just awesome, you know. I think it's a that's something that we've been

295
00:32:43.230 --> 00:32:46.130
CINC Marketing: really improving since you've gotten here.

296
00:32:46.130 --> 00:32:54.209
Jeff Walker: Yeah, and we. And we use that kind of as our model like when we ask ourselves how something should work, we say, Well, what would a person do right if it was a person.

297
00:32:54.850 --> 00:33:16.040
Jeff Walker: the business, what would they do? And so Brian just asked a question where he dropped something in the chat, saying, when setting an appointment, it would be great if the meeting invite were sent to the client also. Yeah, that's something a person would do right. If you had an assistant they could send out the meeting, invite and so that's 1 of the you know, we're looking at like that's 1 of the ways we can solve that drop off problem of

298
00:33:16.240 --> 00:33:22.549
Jeff Walker: right now. Sometimes that Sync AI will commit to something like it will say, Okay, great. They'll call you tomorrow.

299
00:33:22.590 --> 00:33:27.259
Jeff Walker: And and then that action doesn't happen. And so we're trying to

300
00:33:27.280 --> 00:33:45.989
Jeff Walker: fix that particular problem as well to make sure that that handoff isn't missed because it's really it's not good. If if the AI says, Yeah, we'll call you tomorrow, and then you don't. And so actually, we're building our engine, our AI, which has all the the context. And then we're creating these things called skills

301
00:33:46.000 --> 00:34:08.599
Jeff Walker: and a skill would be being able to set an appointment and integrate with a calendar. And so that's something which is planned as well, so it can send out. And that way you'll get a sense. Did that person accept that appointment? And, most importantly, that way on your own calendar, you would see it as well. So we're thinking like, How can you be effective.

302
00:34:08.920 --> 00:34:19.019
Jeff Walker: even if you aren't in the Crm. Right? They, if you don't have to necessarily check the Crm every day to know what you need to do that day, and if we were able to drop it in

303
00:34:20.360 --> 00:34:26.570
Jeff Walker: your calendar, then you would know, okay, at this time I need to call this person and the details of that would be in your calendar.

304
00:34:28.280 --> 00:34:33.989
Daniel Lott: So I I saw there's a couple of questions about just what exactly did like you said like, it's now it's gen

305
00:34:34.429 --> 00:34:38.900
Daniel Lott: generative. Is that the word so like. What?

306
00:34:38.909 --> 00:34:41.275
CINC Marketing: What the heck does that mean?

307
00:34:41.670 --> 00:34:46.249
Daniel Lott: What does that mean? And actually, when, when exactly, did this change happen?

308
00:34:46.360 --> 00:34:49.670
Daniel Lott: Like what cause? I remember? There's the big switch over.

309
00:34:49.670 --> 00:34:54.420
Jeff Walker: Yeah, it's last September. Yeah, that's when we rolled it out for everybody. We were.

310
00:34:54.420 --> 00:35:00.169
Daniel Lott: Alright, so that kind of fits with the timeframe of of the big sale is that that happened in November and the

311
00:35:00.570 --> 00:35:07.220
Daniel Lott: the Transat. The the transcript was so you know, it was a really good conversation that they had. So

312
00:35:07.510 --> 00:35:14.659
Daniel Lott: how did this new one? How does that compare to the old one like? What did? What did the old one do, or what does the new one do that the old one doesn't do.

313
00:35:15.160 --> 00:35:38.819
Jeff Walker: The big thing is, the old one is still the old one was scripted, and so the AI was about understanding it could understand the context of the conversation, and it could understand what information it had gathered and what it hadn't. And so it had a goal to get an appointment. It would know that if it understood your preferences, but its responses were scripted, it couldn't make up responses. And so it

314
00:35:38.940 --> 00:35:40.780
Jeff Walker: it tended to sound

315
00:35:41.830 --> 00:35:56.490
Jeff Walker: generic right some of the conversation. It could get a little awkward and say, You know, oh, thank whatever the person said, it'd be like, Oh, thanks for telling me that information, and they would ask his next question. And so it couldn't really react to the specific things a lead was saying.

316
00:35:56.620 --> 00:36:13.000
Jeff Walker: And so the new generative AI, you know, it's based upon Openai. So it has all the knowledge that, like A, you know, Chat Gpt has. And it means that it can respond contextually and even answer specific questions. So I see a lot it can talk about, you know.

317
00:36:13.160 --> 00:36:29.279
Jeff Walker: neighborhoods or Va loans. Or you know, it's it's designed not to get into anything. That is a license activity, but it doesn't just ignore things, and it will then try to pass that off to the agent as the expert, but it can engage

318
00:36:30.600 --> 00:36:35.059
Jeff Walker: in a much more like you're talking to a person versus just talking to a bot.

319
00:36:37.890 --> 00:36:38.360
Daniel Lott: All right.

320
00:36:38.360 --> 00:36:40.620
Jeff Walker: And then Ethan says, still uses a new clients.

321
00:36:41.730 --> 00:36:53.130
Jeff Walker: 1st name a lot. Yeah, it's interesting. So now, you know. And these are things we can tweak, but we now it's much more based upon goals. And so we we prompt it with, Hey, your goal is to get in a

322
00:36:54.210 --> 00:37:08.330
Jeff Walker: appointment, and these are the things that you need to do. So we're training it the same way. We would train our clients at Syncu, or through our conversion day where we give it a lot of the same skills. And then we're measuring like, we can actually see the conversion rate

323
00:37:08.330 --> 00:37:30.930
Jeff Walker: across the board. So we're we're still evolving it in its conversation abilities. And we take it. And we say, Okay, we want to learn a little bit more about motivations and and get to asking the why more before we try a handoff. And how does that impact conversion? But we have the ability to kind of see all the conversations, and and try to keep tweaking them to improving them. And of course the next big piece which was I was talking about is

324
00:37:31.500 --> 00:37:38.300
Jeff Walker: is giving it more context, so it understands everything the lead is doing, and can set a proper follow up plan accordingly.

325
00:37:40.070 --> 00:37:42.889
James Terry: And Jeff, a couple of people have asked, How can they

326
00:37:43.270 --> 00:37:53.150
James Terry: confirm or make sure like, how can they activate this, this new AI or it. Did we just roll this out for all clients? Or how can people opt into this.

327
00:37:53.636 --> 00:38:05.823
Jeff Walker: It's an add on product. So if you, if you didn't purchase it at the time of when you got your package, is something you can add on. And you can just talk to your account manager about adding it. But it is

328
00:38:07.110 --> 00:38:31.940
Jeff Walker: I mean, I'd say it's it's 100% necessary to have, because it takes a lot of the work away. And it keeps you from, you know, like that one, that that 20 million dollar deal. The lead came in on a Sunday night, and so the AI was texting with them at nighttime, and then teeing it up for the agent in the morning. So it it set the expectation with that lead that yeah, there's a real person behind there. They're gonna follow up and and kept them engaged.

329
00:38:33.030 --> 00:38:33.529
Jeff Walker: Yeah, that was.

330
00:38:33.530 --> 00:38:35.950
CINC Marketing: Was one of the things that I was thinking about.

331
00:38:36.130 --> 00:38:39.040
Jeff Walker: Today was like you go to sleep on.

332
00:38:39.500 --> 00:38:41.530
CINC Marketing: On Sunday night.

333
00:38:41.700 --> 00:38:44.050
CINC Marketing: You wake up on Monday morning

334
00:38:44.760 --> 00:38:48.220
CINC Marketing: like, Oh, you have an appointment for a 22 million dollar home today.

335
00:38:49.140 --> 00:38:52.950
CINC Marketing: Yeah, or follow up. Follow up with this person, you know, and.

336
00:38:52.950 --> 00:38:57.990
Jeff Walker: Make sure. Everybody knows, you know, as a tip now, because we've been working a lot on the agent

337
00:38:58.380 --> 00:39:07.120
Jeff Walker: launch pad, right? So the launch pad. We're surfacing those conversations in one place now. So if an AI

338
00:39:07.432 --> 00:39:36.940
Jeff Walker: if it gets a lead to agent ready, it's gonna show up in the contact, requested section of your launch pad, and we have the new section, which is just a couple of months old, called trending leads, which shows you all leads that are highly engaged. And one of the activities there is that they're in a conversation with AI, and so you can see, and you can filter that down and see all the leads that are talking to AI as well. And so you don't have to dig through your your leads dashboard anymore to find those?

339
00:39:37.400 --> 00:39:38.300
Jeff Walker: Eddie asked.

340
00:39:38.300 --> 00:39:51.529
CINC Marketing: I know we were. Well, I know we were seeing some more was that released yesterday. Some. There were some updates to the design of those pages to make it easier to see all the activities. Was that something that was released? Or am I.

341
00:39:51.530 --> 00:39:59.860
Jeff Walker: No, no, it's released now. Yeah. And I'll see if my demo site has. I'll I'll try to bring it up. But so it's people.

342
00:40:01.000 --> 00:40:30.620
Jeff Walker: People see what I'm talking about. But yeah, we've grouped it. It used to show in training leads. Every time somebody triggered an activity like high property views, high favorites. And so sometimes the same lead would be triggering lots of different behaviors. And so it show up lots of times. So we've grouped them together now, so you can see more leads. And if a leads triggered 10 different behaviors, then it's all listed out under one record and collapsed. So it's much cleaner than it was.

343
00:40:31.890 --> 00:40:37.099
CINC Marketing: Yeah, I think you were about to say Eddie was asking about. Does it email? Also.

344
00:40:37.100 --> 00:40:43.410
Jeff Walker: Not yet. That's that's kind of you know the the progress that we're doing. So we've got text today.

345
00:40:44.410 --> 00:40:53.420
Jeff Walker: then next is voice. So we are working on a voice solution for outbound calling. So the AI can actually call the leads.

346
00:40:53.800 --> 00:41:15.990
Jeff Walker: which will be really interesting, very excited about that. And then email will be the 3rd skill that's after that. But you can see like that's the vision is that it will be. It's like one person has all the knowledge of your leads, and can choose the right way to communicate based on what you know. So sometimes it might send an email as just a follow up

347
00:41:15.990 --> 00:41:38.190
Jeff Walker: like to say, Oh, we had this conversation. I just want to email you to confirm what we talked about like the thing that you would do. But you never have time to do right. And and then email becomes much more one to one, because deliverability is always a challenge with email and and the providers are very sensitive to things that look like spam, right? Like auto tracks, emails.

348
00:41:38.200 --> 00:41:46.979
Jeff Walker: They get filtered a lot more than than a 1 to one, a personal email, because they they see the same content going to lots of people. It's more likely to get caught

349
00:41:47.513 --> 00:41:54.419
Jeff Walker: and so we want to move more towards a 1 to one communication through AI through every channel.

350
00:41:56.750 --> 00:42:00.820
CINC Marketing: And then phase 4 sync pro terminators.

351
00:42:04.600 --> 00:42:06.689
CINC Marketing: Come with me if you want to buy a house.

352
00:42:09.280 --> 00:42:15.270
Jeff Walker: Here, I'll share. I I've got it on my screen now, just so you can kind of see what I'm talking about with Launchpad. So.

353
00:42:15.510 --> 00:42:16.590
CINC Marketing: Chopper.

354
00:42:18.670 --> 00:42:29.812
Jeff Walker: The launchpad. The launch pad I'm talking about is is here so the 1st tab you have in your Crm is launchpad, and so we've released.

355
00:42:30.350 --> 00:43:00.027
Jeff Walker: a a lot of this is is in our recent releases, prospecting tab. This is our demo data. So it's not gonna might look a little weird, but this is the prospecting tab which you can filter your p ones. P. Twos. P. Threes, which really mean your the new leads, your leads that you've got attempted contact on active leads and the things that you just have to do in your leads. Filters are all here, but the contact requested section is here, and this shows the leads that

356
00:43:00.520 --> 00:43:29.010
Jeff Walker: have taken some type of action, the showing request, property, inquiry, one of the one click actions on the listing details. So it's designed to bring this front and center the home pulse inquiries that's here as well. And then the trending leads is the one I'm talking about. This is a demo site, so it doesn't have a lot here. But if you go to your own site you'll be able to see trending leads. And it's going to show all the leads that are triggering one of those things that would typically like trigger a behavioral message. So if you look at the list here.

357
00:43:29.330 --> 00:43:41.940
Jeff Walker: AI. Conversation claims home pulse, frequent visitor, high favorites, high property views, shared a listing updated their contact info. This is a big one. A lot of clients have asked about this calculated mortgage.

358
00:43:43.959 --> 00:43:49.350
Jeff Walker: That's a good signal. When somebody's using the mortgage calculator on the listing details. Page. We've seen that

359
00:43:49.710 --> 00:44:07.299
Jeff Walker: that that is, they convert 4 times better than a lead. That doesn't do that. And so it's a good signal to look at, because it means they're starting to think about. Hey? Can I afford this? And there's interesting information in there, too, because when you see, somebody has calculated a mortgage. You'll see if they change their down payment.

360
00:44:07.300 --> 00:44:20.020
Jeff Walker: It gives you a sense of of what cash they might have on hand, and so that information is is on the lead details as well. So anyway. So that's what I'm talking about. You can check out your training leads. There.

361
00:44:20.960 --> 00:44:24.000
CINC Marketing: So if if they I'm sorry. But if they update

362
00:44:24.170 --> 00:44:27.629
CINC Marketing: their contact info as part of the real verified

363
00:44:27.780 --> 00:44:33.659
CINC Marketing: flow, like if they update their phone number. Does that show up under updated contact info.

364
00:44:33.660 --> 00:44:53.030
Jeff Walker: We've just added that one specifically, I'm not sure if it's been released yet. If not, it's it's coming out in the next few days. So yeah, we have a lot of leads now that we've added real verified that they might put in a bogus phone number@firstst But when they get to that listing details, Page, and they realize they can't see all the photos they go. Shoot. Okay, I'll give it to you

365
00:44:53.030 --> 00:45:04.230
Jeff Walker: and and then that event that lead up that phone number update where we know for a hundred percent, we're getting that good phone number is gonna be in here as well, and trending leads.

366
00:45:05.810 --> 00:45:13.080
CINC Marketing: There is some high priority feedback. Everyone here is very stressed out by the amount of tabs

367
00:45:13.690 --> 00:45:15.120
CINC Marketing: that you have open.

368
00:45:15.480 --> 00:45:21.299
Jeff Walker: I did. I did close tabs because I had so many tabs that I couldn't see the ones on the right hand side

369
00:45:21.500 --> 00:45:22.620
Jeff Walker: anymore.

370
00:45:22.980 --> 00:45:26.670
Jeff Walker: So, yeah, what you? I'm using them. Okay.

371
00:45:26.670 --> 00:45:29.330
CINC Marketing: Tabs I do with icons on my desktop.

372
00:45:34.037 --> 00:45:37.122
CINC Marketing: Now I know why. Wi-fi.

373
00:45:37.840 --> 00:45:39.260
CINC Marketing: yeah, Jamie, all right. Very good.

374
00:45:39.260 --> 00:45:41.710
Jeff Walker: Jonathan Brown's here in the office with us.

375
00:45:44.630 --> 00:45:48.740
CINC Marketing: Yeah, it's because he's watching all these Youtube videos. That's why you don't have any bandwidth.

376
00:45:50.090 --> 00:45:51.340
Jeff Walker: Learn a lot on Youtube.

377
00:45:51.980 --> 00:45:59.510
CINC Marketing: I did have. There is a question that I think is pertinent to what you were just showing, Jeff that came in the QA from Mark.

378
00:45:59.760 --> 00:46:03.169
CINC Marketing: and it's some feedback that we've heard before it was around.

379
00:46:03.340 --> 00:46:09.999
CINC Marketing: Request to tour a home by leads that don't really want to tour the home when you follow up with them.

380
00:46:11.770 --> 00:46:14.370
CINC Marketing: So a lot. I am curious, Mark.

381
00:46:15.101 --> 00:46:19.519
CINC Marketing: Do you see these more from social leads than search leads.

382
00:46:19.870 --> 00:46:27.829
CINC Marketing: the reason being when they sign up on the form, we ask them a question of whether or not they would be interested to tour the home they're looking at

383
00:46:27.940 --> 00:46:34.990
CINC Marketing: if they say yes, we put that in as a showing request, as a way to alert you.

384
00:46:35.140 --> 00:46:44.260
CINC Marketing: that they have said yes, but they haven't gone through and scheduled it on the site. Necessarily, if they're coming from that path.

385
00:46:45.126 --> 00:46:50.399
CINC Marketing: Now, the thing with sync, you know, we always we always develop in iterations.

386
00:46:51.660 --> 00:46:52.500
CINC Marketing: So

387
00:46:53.447 --> 00:47:00.950
CINC Marketing: you know, one of the one of. And we've had this conversation around, you know. Should we include that we're looking at ways to improve it as well.

388
00:47:01.280 --> 00:47:14.579
CINC Marketing: But one of the important data points were, or was that leads that indicated they were interested in touring the home where I think it was 5 times more likely to set an appointment

389
00:47:14.750 --> 00:47:19.569
CINC Marketing: than someone who said that they who says no to that question.

390
00:47:19.972 --> 00:47:26.000
CINC Marketing: So I did just want to address that. That is a common piece of feedback that we get, and something that we are

391
00:47:27.770 --> 00:47:30.839
CINC Marketing: like that makes sense. Right? I agree with that feedback.

392
00:47:31.552 --> 00:47:34.769
CINC Marketing: My, my thought there is that this is

393
00:47:35.320 --> 00:47:40.529
CINC Marketing: a positive iteration, you know, in a way of like we've been talking about this whole time.

394
00:47:40.850 --> 00:47:43.910
CINC Marketing: alert you to actions that someone's taking

395
00:47:45.140 --> 00:47:50.889
Jeff Walker: Yeah, it's for us. It's, I think, showing, giving more context about how that was generated could help

396
00:47:51.895 --> 00:47:57.909
Jeff Walker: because it's not easy. It's not that easy to to do a a tour request

397
00:47:58.080 --> 00:48:10.749
Jeff Walker: on the listing details? Page. I mean, it's hard to say you could do that by mistake, but when when the lead comes in from Facebook, and they answer just one of the questions on Facebook, yeah, I'd like to tour this home.

398
00:48:12.010 --> 00:48:16.559
Jeff Walker: You create that request. And those are gonna be lower intent because

399
00:48:16.680 --> 00:48:31.939
Jeff Walker: they were just answering that question versus someone who filled out the form. And so looking and seeing well, where did it come from? Was that just part of the Facebook lead? Or was that someone who used the form on the site can make a difference? Maybe we can do a better job of exposing that.

400
00:48:32.608 --> 00:48:40.399
Jeff Walker: It's a tricky thing like we're actually, we're looking. We have the same thing with property inquiries. We have the inquiries that are done by the form

401
00:48:40.570 --> 00:48:56.930
Jeff Walker: where someone has to fill out the question and they hit property inquiry. So it's multiple steps. And then we have the one click inquiries that like, I want more info about this home that is, on the listing details page. And so it's just one click. So it's very low friction to to get that.

402
00:48:56.930 --> 00:49:11.659
Jeff Walker: The ones that fill out the form are going to be higher intent than ones that fill out that just click the button. And so we're sort of having that debate right now, like, well, should we make it harder for somebody to do that? Or

403
00:49:11.860 --> 00:49:25.180
Jeff Walker: but but the problem is, the data shows that those people are still very, very much more likely to submit an create an appointment. And so like well. And so a lot of it, I think, is about the conversation that's had like

404
00:49:25.880 --> 00:49:32.150
Jeff Walker: you know, don't don't necessarily assume when you talk to somebody like that they're ready to go. See

405
00:49:33.430 --> 00:49:50.689
Jeff Walker: that house still use your typical approach of like, hey? I saw you were you were on our home search site, you know what's got you looking? Are you looking to make a move in the near future, or just browsing? Use your same scripting so that you don't prompt that objection of like if you said, Oh, I got your tour request.

406
00:49:50.690 --> 00:50:05.349
Jeff Walker: When would you like for Asap? So do you want to go see it tomorrow? Because then it's like, well, they don't even know you yet. You haven't built that rapport yet, and and they might be a little bit defensive like. Well, I didn't submit that. Well, I mean, we know that they

407
00:50:05.360 --> 00:50:22.899
Jeff Walker: had some interest, and people aren't just going around blindly clicking buttons right? And so. But you might need to pull it back and do what you would typically do to build rapport with that lead. And then, of course, if they want to see the house. They're going to let you know. But the good news is you got somebody on the phone that is.

408
00:50:23.210 --> 00:50:23.970
Jeff Walker: look

409
00:50:25.270 --> 00:50:38.419
Jeff Walker: to buy. You know, no one's most people aren't shopping and and going into details and clicking buttons just for fun. I mean, I know sync is fun. But it's not that fun right? That they have some interest in purchasing at some point

410
00:50:38.702 --> 00:51:01.610
Jeff Walker: and so, you know, sticking with those scripts that that are effective for for new leads and using the skills you learned at Syncu or on our conversion day. If you haven't gone to a conversion day, we teach a lot of those skills about how to best convert those conversations to to appointments. And that's always the best bet, no matter if it's a contact request or a new lead to use those skills to best convert them.

411
00:51:01.760 --> 00:51:09.759
Jeff Walker: But we are testing some different things to try to see. Okay, how can we? You know, how can we balance that as best as we can.

412
00:51:11.010 --> 00:51:19.670
CINC Marketing: Yeah. And there were also some questions around, kind of scripting and support stuff. This seems like a good time to bring it up one of the questions we got.

413
00:51:19.790 --> 00:51:23.889
CINC Marketing: Do you have a program to train beginners on how to use? Sync?

414
00:51:24.410 --> 00:51:34.009
CINC Marketing: So a lot of really great resources there. I'm not sure if you were a site owner or not who asked this question. But we do have, you know, training. We have support.

415
00:51:35.060 --> 00:51:36.400
CINC Marketing: John Marone.

416
00:51:36.560 --> 00:51:44.320
CINC Marketing: one of our great sync you trainers, has just recently started a course called the Agent Blueprint.

417
00:51:44.430 --> 00:51:50.619
CINC Marketing: which is getting really good reviews. John Marone is.

418
00:51:50.820 --> 00:51:58.510
CINC Marketing: I mean he's energy in a Bottle man, and he knows how to. He knows how to direct a conversation.

419
00:51:58.975 --> 00:52:09.710
CINC Marketing: I mean, really getting like rave rave reviews about that so I'm not sure I know. I think it just started last week, or we maybe haven't. We had the second one yesterday.

420
00:52:09.860 --> 00:52:14.879
CINC Marketing: so I'm not sure if you can join in progress. But I think this will be something that'll be

421
00:52:15.040 --> 00:52:21.950
CINC Marketing: happening. Yeah, Stacy, look at Stacey selling 1 million dollar houses going to the agent blueprint.

422
00:52:22.670 --> 00:52:28.459
CINC Marketing: Okay. Jb, this is great. So Jb has informed me

423
00:52:28.620 --> 00:52:33.609
CINC Marketing: that they will have to wait until the next course. But that's definitely something I would recommend

424
00:52:34.177 --> 00:52:38.189
CINC Marketing: I've told. I tell the story every time on here. I'm not a rah-rah guy.

425
00:52:38.470 --> 00:52:41.549
CINC Marketing: I went to Conversion Day with John Marone, and

426
00:52:41.810 --> 00:52:44.830
CINC Marketing: he had me, like Superman, screaming and.

427
00:52:45.310 --> 00:52:46.100
James Terry: It was amazing.

428
00:52:46.100 --> 00:52:50.210
Jeff Walker: And we have. And and we that, like one of the questions, was like, Well, what's the best.

429
00:52:50.500 --> 00:52:50.790
CINC Marketing: Okay.

430
00:52:50.790 --> 00:52:52.339
Jeff Walker: Hip or trick, or what can I do?

431
00:52:53.690 --> 00:53:22.129
Jeff Walker: And there's so many things that are like deep into the system. But for anybody who's getting started. The best thing they can do is learn how to talk with the leads, right to learn how to build with those leads, and then call, call and be persistent in the calling. And that's that's what that's what's ultimately going to make the difference and and what you know what you say matters a lot, and that's what is taught in sync. You, because, of course, I mean.

432
00:53:22.420 --> 00:53:49.419
Jeff Walker: the leads are high funnel. They're starting, they they. They just started this search, which is great now, because that means they haven't signed a buyer agreement with anybody else. And so it's your job to to build that rapport and get permission to, you know, be communicating with them over time and get them to a face to face appointment, whether it's zoom call or in person, even if they're not ready to look at houses so that they're building that relationship with you, and

433
00:53:49.950 --> 00:54:03.479
Jeff Walker: and then they're going to be more likely to work with you as well. So that's the skill, really. I mean all the features aside, putting the effort into developing that skill is what will make the biggest difference for agent success.

434
00:54:04.720 --> 00:54:26.319
CINC Marketing: If you have questions around it, I would tell you. Last month we had Matt Feathers on office hours, and he is a he's been a client of sync for more than a decade he's come onto our training team. He's built his own team using sync. He had a lot of incredible insight

435
00:54:26.520 --> 00:54:32.369
CINC Marketing: on questions like those. So definitely check that out. That's on our Youtube channel.

436
00:54:33.940 --> 00:54:38.979
CINC Marketing: But you can also find snippets of it on Tiktok, Linkedin, Facebook, and Instagram. So

437
00:54:39.530 --> 00:54:41.850
CINC Marketing: be sure to follow us everywhere.

438
00:54:44.420 --> 00:54:45.010
CINC Marketing: To have to.

439
00:54:45.010 --> 00:54:48.219
Jeff Walker: I just looked up. I just looked up our next conversion day.

440
00:54:48.220 --> 00:54:49.810
CINC Marketing: Okay, that's like, that's just.

441
00:54:50.200 --> 00:54:52.299
Jeff Walker: That's April 24th is the next one.

442
00:54:53.030 --> 00:54:58.860
CINC Marketing: Yeah, and so and and we have online conversion day, we have. Sync University.

443
00:55:00.580 --> 00:55:06.760
CINC Marketing: you know, the same way, we've talked about our big emphasis on highlighting more high value activities in the Crm.

444
00:55:06.880 --> 00:55:11.549
CINC Marketing: I think this is another way that we've differentiated ourselves is with the training

445
00:55:11.660 --> 00:55:16.669
CINC Marketing: that we're able to offer. And you know, I mean, we put a large investment into this, because

446
00:55:17.090 --> 00:55:19.140
CINC Marketing: when you guys succeed, we succeed.

447
00:55:20.012 --> 00:55:22.669
CINC Marketing: So I think the training is

448
00:55:23.060 --> 00:55:27.110
CINC Marketing: truly the best in the industry, so be sure to check that out.

449
00:55:27.260 --> 00:55:27.640
Jeff Walker: And.

450
00:55:27.640 --> 00:55:28.130
CINC Marketing: Everyone.

451
00:55:28.130 --> 00:55:39.380
Jeff Walker: And every single time every there's somebody who's there who's been on the platform for 5 or 6 months, you know, and they get multiple appointments. And they'll say, this is the 1st time I've gotten appointments.

452
00:55:40.013 --> 00:55:45.620
Jeff Walker: Because they suddenly well, number one, they're making phone calls, which is half the

453
00:55:45.620 --> 00:55:48.876
Jeff Walker: do you want me to? Do? You want me to turn on your voice? Disguiser Jeff?

454
00:55:49.080 --> 00:55:49.899
Jeff Walker: My life!

455
00:55:49.900 --> 00:55:52.020
Jeff Walker: It's just went off again.

456
00:55:52.260 --> 00:55:53.010
Jeff Walker: We got energy.

457
00:55:53.010 --> 00:56:09.250
Jeff Walker: I'm saying the right thing, you know, and and and bringing the right tone to those conversations. And so it's it's 100 worth it for any, for as a refresher as well, and it's completely free. As well as for anybody new on your team as well.

458
00:56:09.630 --> 00:56:17.159
Jeff Walker: Of course, in person. Great sync u is great, but but the online conversion day is a way to you know. Keep it going in between those.

459
00:56:17.670 --> 00:56:18.850
James Terry: And that's also true.

460
00:56:18.850 --> 00:56:19.980
James Terry: So valuable.

461
00:56:20.280 --> 00:56:33.329
James Terry: And I see your vendor on here said that you've started new, and you're doing all the trainings. I love seeing that that's so so big. I was actually just on a call yesterday with a client named Matt.

462
00:56:33.400 --> 00:57:00.279
James Terry: I'll just use his 1st name, I hopefully, hopefully, he's on here. I suggested this. This exact webinar to hear from Jeff. Matt had been with us for about a year. He has not gotten the closings that he's wanted the call was mostly wanted to set it up because all the leads suck, and but and all this kind of stuff that we get a lot of feedback from, so wanted to jump on a call, wanted to help, and I asked if he's gone to any of our trainings. If he's done, I'm looking at the dashboard. He's making calls. He's doing good activity. But

463
00:57:00.440 --> 00:57:06.560
James Terry: Matt's thought process on it was, if they're looking to buy. Then they're gonna buy like I

464
00:57:06.700 --> 00:57:13.410
James Terry: he didn't see the value in the scripting and everything Jeff was just talking about in those trainings of, and

465
00:57:13.510 --> 00:57:17.380
James Terry: I probably shouldn't get into like why, he might not. But

466
00:57:18.263 --> 00:57:37.260
James Terry: so glad to see like that. You're doing all the trainings on here. You know, vendor. Just the way that you put that in there that you started new doing the trainings. That's where what leads to success is the willingness to change and adapt and communicate effectively, and John Marone is master at teaching. Now.

467
00:57:37.560 --> 00:58:00.919
Jeff Walker: And and then it becomes very predictable, because then they know through all this sync use and the conversion days exactly. They can predict every time. How many people will answer the phone, and how many appointments that you'll get. And then that's what it's all about is having that repeatability. Because if you know, and you make this many dials to, I'll I'll talk to this many people if I make this many dials, and I get this many appointments. Then it's just a matter of

468
00:58:01.250 --> 00:58:02.479
Jeff Walker: doing that work.

469
00:58:03.680 --> 00:58:15.139
CINC Marketing: When one of the things that was really interesting that Matt talked about last month we had a question around getting Agent buy in to do the leads, and I think this is one of the things

470
00:58:15.340 --> 00:58:20.859
CINC Marketing: that was like it. It kind of blew my mind a little bit, and it makes so much sense of.

471
00:58:21.530 --> 00:58:24.059
CINC Marketing: you know, he said. I realize that

472
00:58:24.510 --> 00:58:26.830
CINC Marketing: I was wanting it more than them.

473
00:58:27.170 --> 00:58:45.830
CINC Marketing: and instead, I just needed to want more for them. And so the way that he went about getting that buy-in was sitting down and having conversations, you know, what are your financial goals? Okay, if these are your financial goals. We know you need this. Many leads to make this many dials, to get this, many appointments to hit this. And then

474
00:58:45.900 --> 00:58:57.560
CINC Marketing: that's what created the buy-in, you know, and he's 1 of the Sync. You trainers as well. He's fantastic. So a lot of great training and it's being done by

475
00:58:57.840 --> 00:58:59.590
CINC Marketing: again like Lance

476
00:58:59.720 --> 00:59:13.200
CINC Marketing: Lance Simpson, who's been around for more than a decade with Sync Matt Feathers, who's been around for more than a decade with Sync Christine Dunn, John Marone, who are all platform owners. So like these are actual people working the leads and

477
00:59:13.330 --> 00:59:18.870
CINC Marketing: teaching the successful ways to do it. I think it's the best training in the industry

478
00:59:19.520 --> 00:59:24.879
CINC Marketing: we did have. Oh, sorry. Go ahead, I but we have one question I want to make sure we get to before we get over.

479
00:59:24.880 --> 00:59:30.690
James Terry: Right. I want to say one one last thing, and I'll I'll let you. And and Jeff put a bow on it and everything. But I wanted to mention

480
00:59:30.690 --> 00:59:31.280
James Terry: John O'brien

481
00:59:31.280 --> 00:59:58.909
James Terry: just put in as well that the power hour is an excellent fantastic exercise, and if you think about exercise. If you go to the gym, no matter how long you stay in the gym that one day, if you only go once A. I was going to say, once a month. But if you only show up to the gym one day, you're not going to have like these spectacular results. The next day. Exercise depends on frequency. And so, like, I love the way you put that, Brian, that the power hour I suggest, those online conversion days, those trainings.

482
00:59:59.420 --> 01:00:25.499
James Terry: be it them consistently. We do the online conversion day pretty much every single month, and like Jeff said, there's no cost to them or anything like that. So going there and just resetting yourself, having your team go back to the basics and go through that exercise of making the dials and setting those appointments. It keeps it so fresh on your mind. They are not a I showed up once 6 months ago, so now I've got it all in my DNA right.

483
01:00:25.500 --> 01:00:33.000
James Terry: they are most effective through consistency. So I just wanted to say that, Brian, thank you so much for putting that in. There is a really good comment.

484
01:00:33.870 --> 01:00:41.449
CINC Marketing: I know we're over time. But Ethan had a question. That he highlighted again here in the Q. And A.

485
01:00:41.940 --> 01:00:47.409
CINC Marketing: And Jeff I wanted to mention. Do you guys, are we? Can we take a few more minutes? Are you good, Jeff?

486
01:00:47.410 --> 01:00:48.399
Jeff Walker: Yeah, I'm great.

487
01:00:48.970 --> 01:00:55.069
CINC Marketing: Alright. Alright. So, Ethan, let me know. I think this is the question you're referring to.

488
01:00:55.270 --> 01:01:03.230
CINC Marketing: But Ethan asked about data model and info tab like so relationships. Right? Is there?

489
01:01:03.766 --> 01:01:10.499
CINC Marketing: He said. There's no easy way to have a husband and wife in the system that both need to be communicated with.

490
01:01:11.418 --> 01:01:20.030
CINC Marketing: For instance, in salesforce there's a robust relationships functionality where you can link to contacts, or

491
01:01:20.700 --> 01:01:23.999
CINC Marketing: and he names a lesser Crm here that I'm not going to repeat.

492
01:01:27.200 --> 01:01:35.560
CINC Marketing: starts with f and ends with all of boss. There is a subcontact functionality similar to the secondary contact.

493
01:01:37.340 --> 01:01:42.140
CINC Marketing: That you can include in texting and calling. So the question is.

494
01:01:42.540 --> 01:01:42.939
Jeff Walker: Yeah, I mean.

495
01:01:42.940 --> 01:01:45.889
CINC Marketing: The question is, is around those relationships.

496
01:01:45.890 --> 01:01:50.160
Jeff Walker: Yeah, and that's kind of alluding to that a little bit. I mean, I think the most likely way for us.

497
01:01:50.890 --> 01:01:53.209
Jeff Walker: To introduce that is.

498
01:01:53.430 --> 01:02:19.439
Jeff Walker: you know, the model of group texting with the AI. If we do group texting with the AI, then it's opening up like the complicated part of that is the enabling group texting part of it right? And if we do that, then group texting for others in a subcontact isn't a far stretch from from there. And so, as part of this project, we're trying to focus on

499
01:02:19.890 --> 01:02:43.389
Jeff Walker: the the projects we think are going to make the biggest difference, of course for transactions. That's that's what we're trying to measure things by. And so the lead, this, this lead nurturing with AI, the automated lead nurturing group texting, I think, is likely to be the solution that we implement for that. And then that is a mechanism. Then, where we could then start adding on other parties to group text

500
01:02:43.778 --> 01:02:53.909
Jeff Walker: and so once we have that that tech in place. So that's all it is on the table. It's you know, we're discussing how to best how to best do that. But

501
01:02:54.030 --> 01:03:10.020
Jeff Walker: texting improvements. Mms, these things, these are things that we're aware of, and that, you know, we're looking to pull in that kind of functionality while still staying on pace with our our key goal here, which is, you know, how can we drive the most appointments.

502
01:03:12.530 --> 01:03:20.800
CINC Marketing: That's awesome. I want to say, Jeff, man, thank you so much. Thank you to everybody who's been
