“When you send a follow-up message, does it spark joy… or does it just get ghosted? Be honest—are you connecting, or are you just checking a box?”
“Welcome back, my friends! This is Realty Chatter Daily: Quick Wins for Realtors, and I’m your host, Gary McGowan. Today, we’re talking about follow-ups—those little nuggets of opportunity that can either build a connection or get ignored faster than a group text about last year’s condo fees.
Let’s keep it real: ‘Hey, just following up!’ isn’t cutting it anymore. That phrase is the real estate equivalent of, ‘Your call is very important to us.’ Clients don’t want to feel like part of your to-do list—they want to feel like they matter. So let’s upgrade those follow-ups into something memorable.
Today’s quick win: Add a touch of thoughtfulness to your next follow-up. For example:
• Instead of, ‘Just checking in,’ try: ‘Hey, I saw this article about market trends and thought it might help with your decision-making.’
• Or, ‘I came across this listing and thought it looked like something you’d love—what do you think?’
This isn’t about reinventing the wheel; it’s about showing your clients that you’re paying attention to their needs and interests.
Here’s the insight: A follow-up isn’t just a task—it’s a moment to remind clients that you’re their Realtor. It’s about making them feel like you’re genuinely in their corner, not just chasing the next deal. And when you lead with value, you build trust and loyalty, one message at a time.
Here’s the best part: You don’t need to overthink it. Clients aren’t grading your follow-up on creativity—they’re just happy to see you pop up with something useful and personal. So keep it simple, keep it real, and most importantly, keep it about them.
So, my friends, let’s leave those robotic follow-ups in the past. Take five minutes today, send a thoughtful follow-up to one client, and watch how the conversation shifts. You’ll be amazed at what a little extra care can do.
And as always…
