There is no in between.If you are running your pipeline from sticky notes, a whiteboard, or just your memory, you are on the transaction roller coaster. You close a deal, you service it with everything you have, and by the time it closes you have done nothing to generate the next one. Then you start over. That cycle is not a hustle problem. It is a systems problem, and it is completely fixable.In this session, Carla Novello and Gabriella Gil walk you through the exact real estate CRM automation setup their team runs on a database of over 28,000 contacts.
