There is a huge potential pool of clients out there who are searching for a suitable mortgage to finance their new homes and might wish to avail of your service. The demand was further fuelled by massive government incentives and record-low interest rates.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, the future can\u2019t be guessed. The COVID-19 pandemic\u2019s lasting effects are still to be ascertained. It is only possible to study trends and be prepared to put ourselves ahead of competition for the years to come.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mortgage brokers don\u2019t just want to be in this market, have to constantly hustle for business and compete with other companies on equal footing. How can we excel? We need a value proposition that is objectively better, so that not a single soul expects our business levels to recede to the pre-pandemic levels.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We know that more and more people are shopping for their mortgages online. The hard part is figuring out how to position your service as a solution that everyone needs and bring in a wave of new customers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is why Effi built the infrastructure to make that possible \u2013\u00a0 a lead management platform that can seamlessly open up business and do even more work for you.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Buying Leads: A Good Choice?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Customers are now shopping and searching for information online so this is how we generate leads now.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But what\u2019s more important is where are you buying those leads from? Some platforms offer leads at a lower price but instead you have to commit to buying 50 or 100 leads at a time. Some even sell the same leads to different brokers so you don\u2019t have full ownership of the leads. Keep in mind that receiving a list of leads doesn\u2019t mean that you\u2019ll automatically make sales.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We decided to do things differently.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We built a lead generation solution on the Effi platform that brings in serious leads and at the same time pushes broker brand awareness. We work alongside some of the greatest loan comparison sites such as RateCity, Finty and Ebroker that provide us with an opportunity to tap into a market of potential borrowers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>How does it work?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To make things simpler for everyone, something we are all for. Mortgage brokers who purchase a minimum of 5 leads on Effi will see their profile LIVE on these high-traffic websites. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When a potential lead needs to contact you, they click on the \u2018Request Call\u2019 function showing your availability. We will notify you about this lead, then it\u2019s just a matter of being available, quick to answer and efficient.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There is time for the leads to be filled in. To put it plainly: only when someone actively makes contact with you, would they count as a lead. You\u2019re paying for real leads, which means you have a higher chance of converting them into paying customers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>What matters is how you work those leads<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are probably several thousands apps and systems out there to help mortgage brokers run their businesses. You need to sift through the masses and find a tech solution that has all the right mix of functions that work best for you, to keep things ticking smoothly.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Using a lead management platform like Effi allows brokers to jump fast in everything they do, managing and converting leads effectively. We at Effi are very mindful of the critical importance of having an easy-to-follow and streamlined process to help guide the leads through the loan journey, hence freeing up time for brokers to focus on building relationships with the clients. Effi offers data in real-time so that you can have better, more meaningful engagements with clients.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re struggling to generate quality leads and manage customer relationships, our <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.effi.com.au\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">broker-focused lead management system<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> may just be what you need!
