Case StudyReal Estate·Omnichannel Follow-up

How a residential developer converted 2.4x more enquiries with automated WhatsApp, email and call follow-up.

Skillfi pulled leads from seven sources into one place, replied to every enquiry on WhatsApp within two minutes and kept buyers moving with email, call tasks and site-visit reminders. It's the kind of system our marketing automation service builds.

Paying for leads, then letting them go cold.

The developer was selling 620 apartments across three projects and generating around 900 enquiries a month from property portals, social ads, Google, its website and walk-ins. Each source landed in a different inbox, spreadsheet or salesperson's phone.

Buyers who enquired often waited two days or more for a reply, and by then many had moved on to another project. Four in ten leads were never contacted at all. Those who did book a site visit received no reminder, so more than a third simply didn't show up.

We were paying good money for leads and then letting them go cold in someone's inbox.
