7FF 284: How to get MORE seller appointments from your marketing (Val Brega at Flip Hacking LIVE)

October 22, 2019

About This Episode

Val Brega is my lead intake manager.

When a seller calls in wanting to sell us their house, Val’s lead intake team takes the call, screens the prospect, and sets up the appointment for our acquisitions team.

Pretty straightforward, right?

Here’s the thing, though…

Lead intake is where your marketing dollars turn into potential revenue.

If something is “off” with your lead intake process…

If you’re not getting to the phone fast enough…

If you’re not following up with leads the right way…

If you’re not screening and qualifying sellers effectively…

If you’re not pre-framing the appointment for success from the first call…

…then you’re going to miss out on deals.

In some ways, lead intake is one of the most volatile and unforgiving parts of your house flipping or wholesaling business.

So at Flip Hacking LIVE, I asked Val to share our lead intake process.

And today, I’m sharing the recording of her presentation here on the podcast.
