Every new launch in the New Capital, the North Coast or any big project brings heavy spending on Facebook, Instagram and Google ads, and leads arrive by the hundreds. The problem is rarely the number of leads. It is what happens next.
Leads land in a sheet, someone pastes them into a WhatsApp group, each salesperson grabs what they can, half the leads never get a call and the other half get two. And when the manager asks "how many sales did this ad bring?", nobody can answer.
This article is a practical plan for a real-estate CRM that moves each lead from the ad to the site visit and the contract.
Stage 1: capture leads with no manual step
- Connect Facebook and Instagram lead ads, Google Ads lead forms, TikTok lead ads and your website forms straight to the CRM.
- Keep with every lead: campaign, ad, project and UTM tags.
- Add custom fields that matter in real estate: project, unit type, area, budget, cash or instalments, preferred delivery date.
- Turn on duplicate merging: if the same number registers twice in a short time, it stays one lead and is not called by two salespeople.
Stage 2: speed to lead
Someone who left their number on a compound ad has probably left it on other ads the same day. The first company that calls and understands what they want has a far better chance.
- An automatic WhatsApp welcome the moment the lead arrives: "Hello, we received your request about this project, and a colleague will call you in a few minutes."
- An instant notification to the assigned salesperson's phone.
- An automatic dialer list for new leads, so the call goes to a free salesperson without anyone searching for the number.
Stage 3: fair assignment in turn
Random distribution causes friction in any sales team. Better:
- Round-robin assignment within the project team, or assignment to a specific person by project or area.
- A clear rule for when a salesperson has not contacted a lead within a set time.
- Team leaders see their team's leads; salespeople see only their own, so data does not leak.
- A customer who already has a salesperson gets their calls and messages routed to that same person.
Stage 4: qualification and the first call
Use a short first-call script and ask the same questions every time, saving answers into lead fields:
- Project and area of interest.
- Unit type and size.
- Budget and payment method.
- Is the decision theirs alone?
- When could they visit the site or the office?
After the call, send the brochure, published prices and map location on WhatsApp from the same customer screen.
Stage 5: viewings and site visits
The visit is the key step in a property sale. Keep it organised:
- Book a viewing appointment in the calendar with the salesperson or sales office.
- Send a WhatsApp reminder before the visit; the customer can confirm or ask to reschedule by replying.
- Use an automatic list of tomorrow's appointments if you also want to confirm by phone.
- After the visit, an automatic follow-up task for the salesperson.
Stage 6: long follow-up with dialer and WhatsApp
Buying a unit is not a one-day decision. It needs follow-up over weeks or months:
- Follow-up tasks with due dates on every open lead.
- Dialer campaigns for interested customers when a new phase or offer launches.
- WhatsApp template campaigns for customers who agreed to receive messages.
- Clear labels: very interested, thinking, budget mismatch, bought elsewhere.
Stage 7: measure ads by real sales
Because every lead keeps its source, you can report on:
- Leads per campaign and per project.
- How many were actually reached, visited and signed.
- Each salesperson's speed to first contact and number of follow-ups.
Then decisions to raise or cut an ad budget rest on sales, not sign-ups.
