EOTW: Most Realtors wouldn’t share this with you…
Introduction
“Now is a great time to buy” isn’t landing anymore - and sharp buyers are telling us why.
They’re paying attention. They see the affordability headlines, the shaky confidence, the mixed economic signals. When agents default to optimism without context, buyers tune out. That’s exactly why we built this campaign.
This is a contrarian reset. Not to be negative, but to be credible.
Instead of asking buyers to believe a slogan, this message helps them think. It acknowledges what’s hard right now, then reframes the real question they should be asking: What’s my timeline? Not Can I time the market?
The data makes one thing clear: short-term, speculative thinking gets punished. Long-term ownership still wins. This email helps your clients zoom out, apply the data to their own goals, and breathe again.
Before you get started
For best results with direct mail, you’ll want to have these core lists ready.
Before you send a text, make sure you have these three things in place:
Before you send an email, make sure these three things are in place:
Farm List
This is your core mailing audience—used for general awareness and market education. Build your list using the following filters:
- Homeowners who’ve owned for 10+ years
- 50%+ equity
- Areas with strong total commission opportunity (transaction volume Ă— average price)
Start with 1,000 homes. Expand if it’s working. Need help pulling the list? Ask your title rep or use tools like PropStream or Breakthrough Broker.
Radius Lists
Used for campaigns like Just Listed, Just Sold, Magic Buyer, or Pre-Appointment letters.You’ll need the ability to quickly pull 100–200 nearby homes around a specific property.
Specialty Lists
Used for targeted campaigns like Expired Listings, Silver Tsunami, and FSBOs.
Pull these from platforms like RedX or similar.
An Email Tool
You need a platform that lets you send mass emails to your database. Use what you have—FUB, Follow Up Boss, Mailchimp, KVCore, Constant Contact, etc. If you’re not set up yet, get that handled first. You can’t send if you can’t hit send.
Three Simple Lists
You need three lists:
Prospects
People you haven't done business with.
SOI/Past Clients
People you have.
Entire Database
All contacts.
A Plain Text Format
These emails are written to feel personal, not promotional—so keep them clean. Paste them as-is, with a short signature (your name, number, maybe your site). That’s it.
A CRM That Can Send Texts
Most modern CRMs can do this—Follow Up Boss, Lofty, Brivity, Real Geeks, etc. Use your CRM before buying anything new. You’ll want tracking, history, and batch-sending capabilities.
If you do need a mass texting tool, here’s what we recommend. But start with manual sends if you have to.
Three Simple Lists
Texting is for follow-up. And smart follow-up starts with the right filters.
Prospects
People you haven’t done business with.
SOI/Past Clients
People you have.
Entire Database
All contacts.
Engaged Recently
Opened an email or visited your site in the last 7 days.
Not Contacted Recently
No outreach in 30 days (for prospects) or 90 days (for clients).
A Plain Text Format
These aren’t spam blasts. They’re timely, value-based follow-ups. Use their first name. Skip the signatures.
