Before and After REsimpli

Before REsimpli

Manual Process: Rod would have to take calls throughout the day and take notes while on the call.

Pinpointing Leads: With the usage of Google ads and Facebook, it was hard for Rod to know where the leads were coming in from.

External Help: Before REsimpli, Rod used Podio which was too complicated and required further outsourcing to help with automation.

After REsimpli

More Deals: With REsimpli allowing Rod to be able to record all of his calls for later, he could focus on the calls more without being bogged down about notes.

Leads Calling: REsimpli allowed Rod to identify when calls from generated leads were coming through, allowing him never to miss a call.

Saved Time: Knowing when leads are calling and not having to stop to take notes, alongside being able to import all leads into REsimpli to keep track of them has saved Rod a lot of time.

Rod’s Experience with REsimpli

Rod Hanks has been in the real estate game since 1999, and only shifted to REsimpli 3 years ago. However, this shift to REsimpli’s CRM has seen massive growth for his business in Dallas, which is one of the top 5 toughest real estate markets. From doing 5-10 deals a year, the last 3 years have seen Rod’s business do 5-10 deals a month, multiplying his closed deals by 10 times. Rod also saves a lot of time on the manual work now, and can focus more on doing the sales aspect of his business - earning him a higher revenue. He also has a birds-eye view of his business, being able to track leads being generated by Facebook and Google ads, while also being able to differentiate them. Rod loves REsimpli because he can tell it was created by an investor, for investors.
