There are 518,000 more home sellers than buyers right now. (Redfin)
That changes the game.
This week, we’re focusing on purely education: a value-based email with no hard pitch and a soft CTA in the P.S.
The subject line does the qualifying for you. If they open it, chances are they’re already thinking of selling. That’s a lead. Add them to your call list.
Your job here is to guide. Use this as a moment to share your expert ideas. Show them how you would approach the sale if it were your home: how you'd study the comps, price it smart, build momentum before it hits the market, and tailor the marketing to the right buyer.
This is how you become the obvious choice before they even raise their hand.
The Bank of Canada’s decision on September 17 is a true marketable moment, and your job is to get in front of it. When rates shift, timelines shift.
We’re using qualify-through-copy right in the subject line to surface intent before you lift the phone. Send this email to your full database today. Watch who opens - that’s your short list. Tomorrow, text those openers with this script to turn curiosity into conversations.
Last week, rates dipped to their lowest level since October. Moments like this wake up on-the-fence sellers. Your job is to meet that energy and turn interest into conversation, fast.
We wrote this email as a direct response play to surface homeowners who might be open to the idea of selling before the end of the year.
Send it to your entire database today. Then, tomorrow, text everyone who opened it to start real one-to-one chats using this script.
Most of the time, buyers don’t just need the headline, they need the help interpreting what it means for them. The smart play right now is (and always has been!!) education - especially around mortgage rates.
This email does exactly that. Notice how the subject line qualifies upfront, if they open, they’re at least thinking about buying before 2026. Add them to your call list this week.
The body of the email covers three specific levers buyers can watch, and act on. It’s practical, actionable, and positions you as the advisor they want in their corner.
And the P.S.? That’s the subtle pipeline builder. Acknowledge they may not be ready today, but open the door for a 6–12 month conversation.
The smart play right now is (and always has been!!) education. Buyers don’t need another market headline; they need someone to help them interpret what matters and how to act on it.

This “Forward to a Friend” email has been one of our top performers for years, and this new version makes it even stronger. Why? Because it does three things at once: it gives your database insider access before the listing goes public, it assumes they’re not the buyer (which lowers resistance), and it gives them a simple, clear CTA: share it with someone who might be.
That combination is why this campaign consistently drives conversations, referrals, and results.
Momentum is everything. Once you’ve sparked curiosity with your pre-appointment email, the next move is to double down - but only with the people who leaned in the first time. That’s why this follow-up is targeted to just the openers. They’ve already raised their hand. Now you fan the flame.
This email takes the intrigue even higher. The subject line flips the script with “I was wrong,” pulling readers back in. The body? It escalates the buzz, paints the home as even more desirable, and gives a clear timeline for when the official details will drop.
The beauty here is in the anticipation - you’re keeping them hooked, making them feel like insiders, and setting up the perfect runway for the launch.
Great businesses don’t wait for demand. They create it. That’s exactly why this campaign has been one of our most successful for years: no one else is doing it.
Here’s the play. Before you even walk into the listing appointment, you prime your entire database with this email. The subject line? Impossible to ignore. The copy? Turns the volume allllll the way up.
What does that do? It builds buzz, positions you as the go-to agent with insider access, and gives you a list of curious buyers before the seller has even signed the paperwork. And when you tell your clients you’ve already started promoting their home? That’s the moment you lock in trust, and the listing.
Pro-Tip: Send this email next.
The Equity Email has generated ListingLeads.com members millions of dollars in listing opportunities.
You'll notice that it's not your typical "Find Out How Much Your Home Is Worth" email.
The first sentence immediately increases the perceived value of what you're offering: I don't send an email like this often.
Then we "show the sweat" - give the reader an idea of how much work you put into creating these reports.
Then close with an offer.
Send it today and let's get you a listing appointment. :)
Here’s the reality: only 6–8% of your database is actually thinking about moving right now. Which means dialing for dollars isn’t just exhausting, it’s inefficient.
There’s a smarter play: let your marketing tell you who’s raising their hand. That’s what this campaign is built to do.
We call it “qualify through copy.” Here’s how it works:
- The subject line “What do buyers really want right now?” works as a filter. The only people opening are the ones curious about buyer demand… and those are your potential sellers.
- Once the email goes out, track your opens. That’s your call list for the week.
- The content itself delivers value: a data-backed list of what buyers want today. This positions you as the expert and keeps homeowners engaged, even if they’re not ready yet.
- Finally, the P.S.—“before you go”—is a soft call-to-action inspired by Dean Linnell’s Friday Morning Coffee Newsletter.
So don’t think of this as “just another email.” It’s a system. A subject line that qualifies, content that builds authority, and a closing line that creates opportunities. All you have to do is send it, and then follow up with the right people.
Just because it’s on the MLS doesn’t mean it’s being marketed.
That’s the gap most sellers don’t realize exists, and the one you need to own in your market. In a time when homes are rushed online with half-baked photos, no clear plan, and videos that never leave the listing page, your process should stand out like a spotlight.
This campaign was inspired by Shannon Gillette’s fantastic reel and built around a viral, share-worthy hook. It’s your chance to show your database exactly how you create demand, not just a listing, and to position yourself as the agent who brings a plan, not a hope.
Send it as-is, or add your own signature touches to show how you prepare and promote homes.

You’re not just sending an email, you’re making an offer. That’s the power of this campaign.
It’s built to surface serious buyers, fast. The subject line alone immediately qualifies your audience. If they open, they’re raising their hand.
From there, the copy is clear and direct: “I’m going to make you an offer in this email.” That line disarms people. It tells them you’re not here to waste their time, and you’re not offering another seminar, calculator, or generic home search.
Instead, you’re offering what today’s buyers actually want: A great deal.
It ends with a clear CTA: Reply “I’m Ready.”
And the P.S. adds just enough scarcity: you can only take on a few clients per month. That gives serious buyers a reason to act now.
If you have access to off-market deals, consider sending this version instead.

The housing market runs on speed. But buyers? They run on timing.
That’s the gap we uncovered digging into Cotality’s latest research on “Who (really) owns the homebuyer?” The process is faster than ever: instant alerts, same‑day offers, mounting competition, but most buyers say they still feel overwhelmed. Readiness hasn’t caught up with market velocity.
And here’s the problem: most agents respond by pushing harder. More urgency. More “act now.” That may get an offer written, but it doesn’t build trust.
This campaign flips that script. It positions you as the agent who slows the process down just enough for buyers to feel informed, prepared, and confident. That’s how you stand apart—and how you turn first‑time conversations into long‑term clients.
The Deal of the Week strategy isn’t a nice‑to‑have, it’s a weekly marketing habit worth locking into your SOPs. Simple. Repeatable. Highly effective.
This style of email has helped generate thousands of conversations within our community. Why? Because it’s built to get a response. It sparks curiosity, creates urgency, and makes it easy for people to raise their hand.
But the real win? This email is just the starting point. Repurpose it into an Instagram poll. Turn it into a quick SOI text. Now you’re taking one proven campaign and multiplying its reach, its impressions, and its opportunities.
Not sure which listing to feature?
Start here:
- Filter for new listings (within the last 7 days)
- Focus on your target price point
- Stay in your ideal neighborhood or farm area
That should give you a pool of 50–70 listings.
From there, zero in on the one with the highest saves or views—that’s the listing with heat behind it.
Telling someone they can’t have something? Still one of the fastest ways to make them want it.That’s the psychology behind this coming soon email, and why it starts with a line most agents would never dare send:“I really shouldn’t share this listing with you…”No price. No exact location. Just a few vivid details, a sense of exclusivity, and a clear call-to-action:Text “VIP” to your number for more info.It’s short. It’s unexpected. And it works, because instead of broadcasting a new listing, you’re creating demand before it hits the market.
The Circle Prospecting Email Strategy leverages targeted outreach and client engagement to uncover hidden real estate opportunities. By using this strategy, real estate agents can offer their clients exclusive access to off-market deals, ensuring a more successful and competitive home-buying experience. This approach not only benefits agents by generating new leads and enhancing their reputation but also provides clients with early access to properties that perfectly match their needs.
In today’s competitive real estate market, staying top-of-mind with local homeowners is crucial for success. Our "Sale Of The Week" email campaign is designed to provide timely, hyper-local insights that homeowners can't easily find online. By sharing detailed analysis of recent, noteworthy sales, like how quickly a home sold and the factors contributing to its swift sale, we help our clients (real estate agents) demonstrate their in-depth knowledge and expertise in their local market.
Each email is crafted to keep homeowners informed about important market trends, showcasing your ability to understand and navigate the current real estate landscape. This not only positions you as a market expert but also fosters trust and credibility among potential sellers.
The benefits of this strategy are threefold:
1. Top-of-Mind Awareness: By regularly sharing valuable information, you stay at the forefront of homeowners' minds when they consider selling their homes.
2. Market Expertise: Highlighting your knowledge of local market trends establishes you as the go-to real estate professional in your area.
3. New Listing Opportunities: The seller-centric call-to-actions (CTAs) encourage homeowners to reach out for professional home value reports and consultations, creating potential new listings.
By leveraging this campaign, you can effectively engage with your audience, build stronger relationships, and ultimately, generate more listing opportunities.
Sending timely and relevant emails to your database is essential for keeping your prospects informed about the latest market trends.

2. Including "Out of curiosity" softens the ask.
3. Multiple choice makes it easy to answer.
4. It includes a compelling p.s. with a relevant CTA for a home value report.

S/O to Jeremy Davis from Palm Agent.
If you haven't downloaded their app, they have a killer feature that allows you to calculate the holding cost based on the sales price.
If a home is on the market for 30 days, 60 days, 90 days, 120 days—how much does it actually cost the consumer to have their property sit on the market?
Let's say, for example, that a $725,000 home is on the market for 90 days. The holding costs could be upwards of $19,000-20,000.
Most sellers wouldn't know that. In their mind, what's the big deal if it's 7 days or 45 days?
It matters because it could literally cost them thousands of dollars in equity they've earned.
This campaign is a great opportunity for you to communicate why your ability to sell a home quickly actually matters to the consumer.

S/O to Jason Cassity for executing a brilliant Coming Soon strategy specifically for new construction.
Here's why this campaign works:
1. An "Early Access" angle that provides information to the consumer that they won't find online.
2. He includes a map of where the homes are located in the email.
3. He ends with a casual CTA and offer to schedule a pre-market showing.

One of the smartest ways you can use your email marketing tool is to cross-promote your social media posts.
This is one of my favorite strategies implemented by Ray Ellen.
Here's how it works:
1. Find a notable listing in the MLS (or Off-Market).
2. Write a brief post about it on social media with a CTA to DM you if they're interested.
3. Send an email blast to your database LINKING to your social post.
This is something you could do SEVERAL times a month to generate inbound opportunities.
Ask Ray. It works.
When you have a Coming Soon listing and you hit the 24 hours before it goes live, send this email.
Here's why it works so well:
1. It creates urgency. The goal of the subject line, "Exclusivity ends in 24 hours" is to get as many people to open the email as possible.
2. It piques curiosity. Share some info, but not all the info. Share one photo (the "money shot") but not all the photos.
3. It has a strong CTA. Don't drive them to a website. Get them to call.
This is rarely talked about in the real estate marketing world but one of the best ways to attract high-quality seller leads is by doing high-quality marketing of your current listings.
Prior to the home going on the market, this is the first email you should send.
It's a simple way to add incredible value to both potential buyers and your seller. ⬇️
In his book Viral Loop, Adam L. Penenberg profiles the rise of Hotmail, and tells the story of how it happened.
To help spread the word about Hotmail, they added this line...
"p.s. I Love You. Get a free email at Hotmail.com"
That small hook at the end of the message created a hockey stick growth for them.
So here's the zen learning…
The people in your database may not be buying today but they know someone who is.
More importantly, they can introduce you to a new prospect with the right hook.
