The CRM allows you to create and send bespoke email campaigns directly to the contacts you have stored.

Once sent, you can also monitor and measure the success of your campaigns to adjust your future strategies. You can also schedule future campaigns to target specific groups of contacts at the perfect moment throughout their house buying journey.

Types of campaigns

When it comes to sending your customers information about your developments, the right campaign is essential. The CRM gives you the flexibility to choose the precise style which will deliver an impactful and timely campaign.

There are 3 types of campaigns, accessed from the Campaigns section in the side panel:

  • Direct Email - Direct emails can be created to send simple text-based personalised emails to your contacts
  • Campaign Email - Create bold, bespoke email campaigns from scratch or upload .html and/or .zip files of existing campaign templates 
  • Text Message - SMS text messages can also be sent to your contacts, however you're restricted to using text and emojis only
