Don’t text your whole list. Text the people who already raised a hand.
Everyone who opened yesterday’s email told you they’re paying attention- treat them like it.
This follow-up is simple on purpose. Lead with a direct reason you’re reaching out (“busy fall, lots of questions coming in”), then ask a clear multiple-choice question that’s effortless to answer. Short taps, fast signal. You’ll learn what matters - next home, payment, price, or something else - and you’ll know who to call first.
This is precision over volume. Send this only to yesterday’s openers, and watch who leans in.
This is where the follow-up magic happens. Yesterday’s email set the stage - it framed the rate drop and got homeowners leaning in. Today, you’re doubling down by sending this text to everyone who opened that email.Â
The structure is intentional: start with a relevant reason to reach out (buyers responding to lower rates), acknowledge the real fear of selling (it can feel overwhelming), and then lower the barrier with a multiple-choice question. That format makes it simple for homeowners to engage without overthinking.
And the close - “Maybe I can help” - keeps it human, conversational, and approachable.
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.

When rates move, buyers move. And right now, rates just hit their lowest point since October 2024.Â
This is fuel for real conversations with your database. You’re delivering timely, relevant information that matters to them.Â
The power of this script is in its simplicity: ending with, “If they drop again, do you want me to let you know right away?” That “right away” isn’t filler - it’s a calibrated offer. If they say yes, you’ve just surfaced intent in real time.Â
This script gives you a fast, natural way to reconnect with leads, position yourself as the market expert, and uncover buyers ready to take the next step.

And the magic is in the close: ending with a simple, “If rates drop any lower, should I reach out?” It surfaces intent without forcing it.Â
This script gives you a fast, natural way to reconnect with leads, position yourself as the market expert, and uncover buyers ready to take the next step.
Good agents study the market. Great agents take what they learn and turn it into a reason to start conversations. That’s exactly what this text does.
It works because it’s rooted in relevance. You’re not just reaching out - you’re reaching out with something specific your client cares about: the latest sales data in their area. Add in the pattern interrupt - “The results were not what I was expecting” - and you’ve got their attention.
This is proactive prospecting at its best. You’re not waiting for permission to be helpful. You’re creating the moment, offering value, and opening the door to a natural follow-up.
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 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.
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.

We should probably go ahead and recruit Scott Steadman for the creative team at ListingLeads.com. The postcard he shared in our Mastermind Group was that good. From the headline to the body copy to the clear CTA, it nailed everything. Naturally, we had to turn his brilliance into a template you can use for your own Just Sold campaigns.
Here’s why this matters: most “Just Sold” postcards blend into the pile of mail on the counter. They brag about the sale but fail to connect with the neighbor holding the card. This one cuts through. It speaks to the reality of the market, shows proof of performance, and gives homeowners a clear next step. That combination is what creates conversations, and conversations are what lead to listings.
‍
A “Just Sold” letter without the story behind it is a wasted opportunity. Numbers alone don’t inspire confidence, but details do. Homeowners want to know how you got the result, not just that you did. That’s where this campaign shines.
S/OÂ to Vanessa Reilly who created the Just Sold letter (her example below) that inspired this template.
By pulling back the curtain - sharing the strategy, the marketing, the preparation - you’re showing the sweat. You’re giving neighbors insider access they won’t get from Zillow or Redfin. This positions you not as another agent bragging about a sale, but as the expert who knows exactly how to maximize value in their neighborhood.
If you’ve got a standout sale, this is the letter that turns it into momentum. Clear proof. Clear results. And a clear next step for anyone wondering, “What could my home sell for?”
Don’t wait until you secure the listing to start building relationships with the neighbors.
Here’s a strategy to implement as soon as you book the listing appointment:Â
1. Build a list of nearby homes using a tool like Propstream.
2. Send this letter to the neighbors.Â
If the first time the neighbors hear from you is when you’ve sold the home, you’re missing valuable opportunities.Â
By consistently engaging with neighbors at each stage of the listing process, you’re doing more than selling a home, you’re building your listing pipeline.Â
This strategy can effectively transform one listing opportunity into two or three additional ones.
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.
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.

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.
People love an apology
here's the thing is I will say this is the I'm sorry script is a killer killer
way to re-engage people who have let's say you miss an opportunity. So Sam
let's say you were part of my open house as an example.
script as a way to sort of bridge that gap for any old open house leads, but I'm not doing that mass marketing. I'm definitely doing that as a onetoone text.
