Towards Voxloud
Pioneers of Adwords, from 2004 the company has started experiencing lead generation campaigns on Google with success.
By the early 2000s, internet is not available by everyone and its average user is a wealthy person, totally in target with the ads that Elite Immobiliare proposes.
But, with the passing of time, internet spreads more and more and, of necessity, the initial target reached so easily, now it’s even more difficult to get to.
For this reason, the company puts into play different strategies and tools, and the employment of a traditional Phone System is among them.
The company makes a set-up of the Phone System very intelligently.
9 phone lines with 9 different numbers are organized. Each line is associated to a different Ad campaign or to a different selling channel, such as Immobiliare.it and Idealista.it, or simply the company uses the classic for sale billboard on the street.
In this way a traceability of the potential customer is guaranteed. Indeed, according to the number called, Elite Immobiliare knows which Ad works better or which channel works better.
It all seems perfect but it’s exactly in this moment that the first problems appear, the Phone System the company has payed lots of money doesn’t adapt the marketing strategies.
For example, in Milan finding a house to buy is really difficult and, for this reason, micro-Ad campaigns are made. They generally last 2 hours and they advertise real estates at a consistent and fair price.
During those 2 endless hours the average number of incoming calls for each Ad is 70 calls.
Managing correctly this huge amount of calls using a traditional Phone System is impossible, potential customers finding the line busy are almost certainly lost, because they won’t call back again.
Many times also happened that the company called back a potential customer who slipped away. But in 2-3 days he had already found home with the support of a competitor. In this way, the company lost revenues.
On the traditional Phone System, changing a simple setting is terribly complicated, every time you must write a sequence of numbers and symbols.
Often, until you succeed in doing something correctly, even half a day passes.
The desire not to waste time setting a voicemail, trying not to lose a call anymore and making a potential customer to leave a message, forces Elite Immobiliare to rely on a technician.
But the technician has a cost, a high cost. Each intervention costs <strong> no less than 150€ per hour.
The limit of tolerance is overcome soon after.
During the transition from Tim to Fastweb a 2-days telephone isolation occurs.
That’s right when the company has bought an entire page on the Corriere della sera. A situation like this no longer had to happen.
Elite immobiliare srl mette gli interessi del cliente al di sopra dei propri fornendo un preciso servizio di mediazione immobiliare per una compravendita o locazione trasparente, sicura e onesta.
It was born in 2004 with a different approach, oriented at customer’s cure. No offices on street, always inner since real estate businesses has to be interpreted as something reserved.
