Real Estate CRMs: How to Choose (and Use!) the Right One for You

Smartphones and spreadsheets are okay, but you won't be able to compete with the top-performing agents and teams without your own CRM. The right customer relationship management tool will help you grow and run your business. If you use a CRM correctly, you and your agents will never wonder again what you need to do when the workday begins. In part two of our real estate technology podcast series, Rivers Pearce -- one of BoomTown's early employees -- explains the four features that every good CRM should have. He also talks about how to choose or change CRMs, and whether the franchise-provided CRMs have enough horsepower to run your business.

What is The Walkthrough™ | HomeLight's Real Estate Podcast?

Join us as we explore how great real estate agents grow their business, stand out from the crowd, and become irreplaceable.

Any real estate podcast can tell you that drip campaigns and follow-up are important. On The Walkthrough™, we get the most successful agents in the country to share their exact follow-up system (episodes 20-22, 54-55, 72). We don't suggest you try to create inventory, we show you how to do it (episodes 39, 67-68). We don't just say open houses are still important, we share a high-level system that actually works (episode 88).

Every week, our thousands of followers and listeners get actionable, no-hype advice from top real estate agents and esteemed marketing, business, and technology experts. While many real estate companies try to eliminate the agent, and many consumers think agents aren't needed, HomeLight believes you're more needed than ever. The Walkthrough™ is here to help.
