The Deal of the Week strategy needs to be added to your weekly marketing SOPs.
It's simple, repeatable, and highly effective.
Brad McCallum sent a Deal of the Week email and got 20 replies.
But here's the thing...
This email is just the beginning.
Repurpose your Deal of the Week into an IG poll and an SOI text.
This is how you can take a winning marketing campaign and maximize the impact.
Here's the text. ⬇️

This circle prospecting script landed Gretchen Coley a $3.4M listing opportunity.
Here's why it works:
1. Relevant, hyper-local market data that gives a reason to reach out.
2. Incorporating the "Bandwagon Effect"—a psychological principle that argues that we're more likely to do things if we know that other people are already doing it.
3. Excellent use of the magic words "One more thing…" with a CMA offer even if they aren't thinking about selling.
Next time you discover a local market trend that prospective sellers need to know about, try this script.

Every time you sell a home, it's an opportunity to circle prospect around the neighborhood and execute what we call the Value-Based Voicemail strategy.
The strategy is simple—
1. Give them valuable information about the sale that they might not find online.
2. Ask them if they know of anyone who's thinking about selling, to have them give you a call.
This exact script landed Connie Carlson another listing opportunity just after she sold her listing $40K over the asking price.

Let's be honest—sometimes it can be easier to call your colleague's past client list than it is to call your own.
So why not switch it up?
Using the Buddy System CMA strategy, swap lists with a colleague.
Here's the exact script you can use.

This is a tactic we like to call The Matchmaker Strategy.
Here's how it works:
1. After you sell a property, call your buyer leads using the first script.
2. Then, after you call your buyer leads, call homeowners in the area using the next script.
It's that simple.
Try it and see if it works for you.

Don’t wait until you secure the listing to start building relationships with the neighbors.
Here’s a technique to implement as soon as you book the listing appointment:
1. Build a list of nearby homes using a tool like Propstream.
2. Enrich the list with contact information (skip tracing).
3. Use the following script to make calls and send personalized emails.
If the first time the neighbors hear from you is when you’ve sold the home, you’re missing valuable opportunities.
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.
This strategy can effectively transform one listing opportunity into two or three additional ones.

Asking for referrals can feel hard.
This script reframes the typical referral script.
The phrase "One more thing" are magic words that you can slide into the end of a conversation with your client.
From there, make a genuine offer to help someone in their network.

One of the ways you can find hidden sellers is by using the right script when you call your buyer leads.
Now, when most agents call their buyer leads, they ask, "Do you have a home to sell?" in hopes of getting the listing appointment.
The problem? Most consumers will immediately put up a wall.
Because they're contacting you to schedule a showing, to try to find a home—most of them don't want to talk about putting their home up for sale just yet.
So here's what to do instead:
Instead of asking that question at the beginning of the conversation, use the following script after you book the appointment.
This simple swap will lead to significantly better results.

Almost everyone has a prediction on where they think the market is headed.
And it's a really interesting angle for engaging 1-to-1 with your SOI: What do they think is going to happen with the market?
This 3-part text script is an opportunity to find people who are thinking about selling, but who haven't yet raised their hand.
Here's how to start the conversation. ⬇️

Chris Voss talks about a negotiation technique he calls an Accusation Audit. It's an preemptive approach that defuses any negative thoughts the other side might be thinking by proactively addressing them.
So for this strategy, by framing a hypothetical question with, "I know this is a bit of a crazy question," you create a safe space to have an open dialogue and explore with your prospect.
Here's the script you can copy/paste.
Send this to 5 of your clients in your database this afternoon.

Proactively sending CMAs is a killer strategy.
It's exactly what Ken Pozek and his team did to generate $80,000 in commission.
Here's the data he shared:
- 30 CMAs
- 12 Appointments Booked
- 5 Listings (all closed)
- 6 Deals in total (1 doubled-ended)
Here's the exact script his team used when they reached out to their SOI with their CMA.
Imagine if you started executing 5 of these a week?

You've probably got a database full of clients who are never going to sell their house.
Because if they were to buy their same house again today, their mortgage payment would be more than double.
It makes sense why you might think that there isn't much value in staying in touch with these folks…
But that would be short-sighted.
Happy clients are your best referral sources.

How do you generate more listings?
Have more conversations.
Here's how:
Professional agents study the market daily, but most don't do anything with that insight unless asked.
Here's what I want you to do:
The next time you review recent sales, text someone in your SOI who lives near that property.
This is a 1 to 1 market update that is…
Easy to digest.
Personalized.
Relevant.
When you get a response, provide them with all the information about the sale and offer a free home valuation report.
Start doing 5 of these a day and watch the magic happen. 🚀
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.
Every season gives you a built-in excuse to reach out. The question is: are you using it?
Right now, as summer winds down, people are shifting gears. Vacations are ending. Kids are heading back to school. And the focus that drifted away in June and July is coming back to real estate in August. That’s your moment.
We’ve used this exact formula before; remember the Post-Election Text back in November? It sparked countless conversations and opportunities for ListingLeads members. Same structure, same psychology, just adapted for the season we’re in today.
Simple texts start powerful conversations. This one works because it isn’t pushy—it’s curious. When you ask a homeowner what the next owner would love, you shift their mindset from “this is my house” to “someone else living here.”
That’s a subtle but important mental bridge toward selling.
Plus, it feels personal and easy to answer, which means you’ll get more replies, and more insight into what matters to them.
This script taps into a powerful behavioral science concept from Chase Hughes: the Identity Agreement. You’re not just offering data, you’re inviting someone to step into the role of “the informed one,” the person who knows what’s really happening in the market. And most people want to see themselves that way.
By leading with curiosity (“I figured you’d appreciate a different perspective”) and offering specific, local insights (“which price points are moving fastest”), you position yourself as the agent who brings clarity in a noisy market.
It’s short. It’s disarming. And it opens the door for a real conversation.
Copy it exactly, or swap out the offer to what makes the most sense for your market. Just keep the structure, because that’s what makes it work.
This text is short, personal and built to get referrals.
It’s rooted in research from behavioral expert Vanessa Van Edwards, who found that high-warmth cues - like compliments that feel earned - are one of the fastest ways to build trust and spark engagement.
That’s exactly what the opening line does: “You always seem to know someone who’s thinking about moving.”
It makes the person feel seen, connected, and credible.
From there, the message shifts into a strategic ask where you highlight an opportunity: You’re taking on 1–2 more serious buyers (or whatever that number is for you) this month.
Use this when you want to re-engage your network without sounding transactional - and start more meaningful conversations that lead to real referrals.
IIf you have access to off-market deals, consider sending this version instead.

Every season gives you a reason to reach out to your clients. The shift into fall is one of the easiest—and most natural—times to do it.
This isn’t about pushing a listing or forcing a market update. It’s about opening a conversation. A quick, personal check‑in that reminds people you’re there, you’re paying attention, and you’re ready to help if real estate is on their mind.
This simple text does exactly that. It’s short, casual, and easy for anyone to respond to. Send it now, and you’ll spark conversations that you might not have otherwise.
There’s one phrase that reopens doors faster than just about anything else: “The last time we talked…”
It’s disarming. It’s personal. And according to behavioral researcher Vanessa Van Edwards, it taps directly into one of the most powerful social triggers we have: being remembered.
When someone recalls a detail you shared months (or even years) ago, it hits differently. It signals care, credibility, and emotional intelligence, without needing to sell a thing. And for leads who’ve gone quiet, it gives them the perfect on-ramp back into the conversation.
This text campaign puts that principle into action. We’ve provided 10 conversation starters - each one built to spark a reply based on something they once shared with you. You only need one. But you do need to personalize it.
Pro tip: Go back through your email threads, DMs, and CRM notes. Look for that small detail, what they said about rates, renovations, location, timing. That’s your opening.
Most scripts put people on defense. This one opens the door.
In a market full of hesitation, your message has to do more than inform - it has to disarm.
That’s why we built this text around three words I picked up from a Lewis Howes video: What’s the chance? It’s playful, non-threatening, and it bypasses the part of the brain wired to shut down salesy conversations.
Instead of pressure, it invites possibility. And for buyers who’ve felt sidelined the last two years, that’s exactly the kind of nudge that gets them to re-engage.
This referral text is simple but strategic.
It’s based on research from Vanessa Van Edwards, a behavioral expert who studies how warmth, trust, and status drive responses.
Here’s what makes it work:
1. It opens with a high-warmth cue—“You’re so well-connected”—which triggers trust and makes the person feel seen.
2. It keeps the ask mutual, not transactional. You’re not selling—you’re inviting them into something valuable.
3. It uses power + warmth language to describe the listing. Instead of underselling it (“might be a good fit…”), you’re quietly signaling urgency and quality.
Send it now if you’ve got a great listing to a contact who knows everyone.
When buyers re-enter the market, it usually starts with curiosity.
Not bold moves—just a sense that the timing might be better.
This text leans into that energy with a useful offer at the right moment.
Even a small rate dip can reset the conversation.
Not just because affordability improves—but because buyers start to feel the difference. According to Redfin, a recent drop from 7.08% to 6.67% gave buyers with a $3K/month budget an extra $16,000 in purchasing power. That subtle shift can be enough to re-engage someone who’s been sitting on the sidelines.
This text uses a light touch to invite that kind of buyer back into the dialogue.
Sometimes the best follow-up isn’t about market stats or drip campaigns.
It’s about being human.
This text gives you a simple, personal reason to reach out to past clients—without sounding like you’re “just checking in.”
Here’s the idea:
If a home hits the market that reminds you of someone you’ve worked with—same style, similar layout, same street or school zone, close to a neighborhood they mentioned loving—you send a quick note to let them know you thought of them.
It’s casual. It’s thoughtful. It’s genuine. And it opens the door to a real conversation.
We’ve tested a lot of scripts—but this one works faster than most.
It’s simple. Personal. And rooted in real psychology.
This is the kind of question that reopens the conversation without feeling salesy… even for leads who’ve gone completely dark.
Here’s the 10-word text that’s driving replies right now:
Hi Tom—
Have you given up on trying to buy a home this year?
Give it a shot. You might be surprised how many people answer.
We created this text campaign to solve a common (and costly) problem: vague, low-performing follow-ups. You know the line—"Just following up…” It’s overused, easily ignored, and signals you don’t have anything new to offer.
This campaign flips that script.
We’re replacing generic follow-ups with a confident, curiosity-driven opener: “This might be worth a quick conversation but I could be wrong.”
It’s disarming, conversational, and gives the recipient permission to say no—while still inviting engagement.
From there, we position the message around active buyer demand and the idea of “just seeing if there’s a number you’d consider,” even if selling isn’t on their radar. It’s direct, low-pressure, and refreshingly honest.
The goal?
Spark conversations with homeowners who aren’t actively selling—but might be willing to consider an off-market deal for the right price.
