3:40
Speaker 1: is everywhere and it's really made our lives much more convenient.
3:44
Speaker 1: And one of the really cool things is for folks,
3:47
Speaker 1: you know, we all have very busy lives. One of
3:49
Speaker 1: the nice things about about technology is and it's really
3:52
Speaker 1: been implemented in ways that can can make things move easier, smoother,
3:57
Speaker 1: but also I think reinforces some personal connections. I think
4:01
Speaker 1: sometimes people view technology as a barrier, and there are
4:03
Speaker 1: certain areas where technology can be done that way. But
4:06
Speaker 1: having the ability to connect with your agent and other
4:10
Speaker 1: things has been huge. Let's talk about some of the
4:12
Speaker 1: ways that For example, speaking of customer relationships. Let's talk
4:16
Speaker 1: about some of the areas where technology does play a
4:19
Speaker 1: factor in real estate.
4:21
Speaker 3: Yeah, we've always tried to stay ahead of the.
4:25
Speaker 2: Curve when it comes to technology at Rock Realty.
4:28
Speaker 3: You know, technology in general has a kind of cold
4:31
Speaker 3: field to the name, but you know, we try to
4:34
Speaker 3: implement it in a way that it's going to enhance
4:36
Speaker 3: the client experience and streamline some of the processes to
4:40
Speaker 3: actually you know, make it a smoother process while still
4:44
Speaker 3: having a great connection with the client in the meantime.
4:47
Speaker 2: One of the ways we do that is what they
4:49
Speaker 2: call a CRM.
4:50
Speaker 3: System, right, a customer relationship management system that's going to
4:54
Speaker 3: help our agents, you know, keep track of our clients,
4:58
Speaker 3: make sure that we have all the notes in the
5:00
Speaker 3: system so that we know exactly what they're looking for us.
5:02
Speaker 3: We're not forgetting that, you know, they had a dog
5:05
Speaker 3: and they really need a fence, right, And it you know,
5:08
Speaker 3: also helps us with communications. We can you know, message
5:11
Speaker 3: them you know through the system or you know, through texting,
5:15
Speaker 3: and it's going to track that so that no communications lost.
5:18
Speaker 3: If we ever need to circle back in the future,
5:21
Speaker 3: we can look at that communication and yeah, that's definitely
5:24
Speaker 3: streamlined the process and make sure you know, I'm sure
5:27
Speaker 3: there's people out there that felt like, you know, maybe
5:30
Speaker 3: they were neglected or are just kind of forgotten about
5:34
Speaker 3: their by their agent in the past, and we don't
5:36
Speaker 3: ever want that. So the CRM system helps to make
5:39
Speaker 3: sure that nobody is feeling neglected.
5:40
Speaker 1: It's really nice too to have that, you know, that opportunity.
5:43
Speaker 1: I know, there's you know, ways to to directly message
5:46
Speaker 1: each other and kind of have that running dialogue is
5:49
Speaker 1: really really convenient for folks. As we talked this morning
5:52
Speaker 1: with Matt Heytman of Rock Realty, the website Rock Wisconsin
5:55
Speaker 1: dot com. That's Rock r O c K Wisconsin dot com.
5:58
Speaker 1: Great website. Check that out. Today I mentioned the app
6:01
Speaker 1: as well, and let's talk about the app and how
6:03
Speaker 1: the how that app has really really helped folks when
6:06
Speaker 1: it comes to perusing browsing, use your word there as
6:11
Speaker 1: whichever you like. When it comes to looking for homes,
6:14
Speaker 1: that app has been really powerful.
6:15
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think our home search app has been pretty
6:17
Speaker 3: game changing, at least for us. It everybody likes using
6:23
Speaker 3: apps these days, and from what I'm hearing from your
6:26
Speaker 3: client feedback, they're saying yeah, this this app is better
6:29
Speaker 3: than realta dot com. This app is better than than Zillow.
6:32
Speaker 3: I enjoy using this app that we have. It's at
6:35
Speaker 3: a homes app and you can download it right off
6:38
Speaker 3: of our website.
6:40
Speaker 2: You know. Obviously you'll want to.
6:41
Speaker 3: Bring it up when you're on your phone and you'll
6:43
Speaker 3: have a link there and it's available via Android or
6:45
Speaker 3: the Apple Apple Store. So the nice thing about it
6:49
Speaker 3: is that number one, it's going to notify you as
6:52
Speaker 3: soon as a listing comes on the market, You're going
6:54
Speaker 3: to get a push notification, right, So it's not necessarily
6:57
Speaker 3: an email that's filling up your inbox, can we get
7:00
Speaker 3: We all get enough of emails. And it also streamlines
7:04
Speaker 3: of communication with the agent.
7:05
Speaker 2: You know.
7:06
Speaker 3: One of the unfortunate things that happens when people are
7:08
Speaker 3: just searching on some of the larger websites online is
7:12
Speaker 3: if they do, you know, inquire or even accidentally inquire,
7:15
Speaker 3: their phone gets blown up, you know, by a number
7:18
Speaker 3: of agents, right, And that's not the experience that we
7:21
Speaker 3: want our clients to have. We want them to be
7:22
Speaker 3: able to just know that they're communicating with one agent
7:25
Speaker 3: and if they have the app set up and they've
7:27
Speaker 3: they've kind of chosen an agent. Then it makes communication
7:30
Speaker 3: very simple. They can just message back and forth.
7:32
Speaker 1: Oh and it's really slick. As you mentioned, it's a
7:34
Speaker 1: very powerful app as well, and you can download it

Speaker 1: the world of real estate, especially with title companies and
11:47
Speaker 1: those type of documents, but also in the world of
11:50
Speaker 1: let's say you're looking to relocate elsewhere and maybe somebody

12:08
Speaker 2: Yeah?
12:08

Speaker 3: we have some great E signature tools where our agents
12:19
Speaker 3: can be on the go putting together an offer, our
12:22
Speaker 3: clients can be you know, you know, as long as

12:28
Speaker 3: sign for a contract, sign for an amendment, to counteroffer,
12:31
Speaker 3: things like that, to make it easy and convenient, so
12:33
Speaker 3: we're not actually having to sign in person any longer.
12:35
Speaker 2: Oh nice? Is that?
12:36
Speaker 1: What about you talk about like trying to trying to
12:39
Speaker 1: assess value and get estimates. There's tools out there as
12:43
Speaker 1: well when it comes to kind of giving you giving
12:44
Speaker 1: you an idea of what your home may be worth,
12:47
Speaker 1: aren't there.
12:47
Speaker 3: Yeah, definitely On the on the seller side, you know,
12:49
Speaker 3: we do have instant home estimates that our software can
12:54
Speaker 3: pull up and give people if they just want to
12:56
Speaker 3: get an idea of what their home is worth. Maybe
12:58
Speaker 3: they're just thinking about refining, anting, or maybe they are
13:01
Speaker 3: just starting to think, you know, ponder the idea of
13:04
Speaker 3: selling right just to see.
13:06
Speaker 2: What the home might be worth.
13:08
Speaker 3: If they log into our site, they have a you know,

13:15
Speaker 3: that property to other recently sold homes in the area
13:18
Speaker 3: and give a give a ballpark number, and it'll probably
13:20
Speaker 3: be a small range at that point. You know, if
13:23
Speaker 3: they want to get a better idea, they can just
13:25
Speaker 3: give us a call and we can have an agent
13:27
Speaker 3: discuss some of the finer points, some of the remodels,
13:30
Speaker 3: the improvements the neighborhood and hone that in a bit.

Speaker 1: Targeting different demos with different things are different platforms as
15:25
Speaker 1: well as it's like I think some people think you
15:27
Speaker 1: just kind of push something out on social media it's
15:29
Speaker 1: going to work. There's literally strategy to that, and really
15:32
Speaker 1: using social media can be a huge benefit, can't it.
15:36
Speaker 2: Yeah, I can.
15:36
Speaker 3: You know, I'm just going to be people that are
15:38
Speaker 3: always on you know, home search sites because they happen
15:41
Speaker 3: to be in the market. But it's sometimes important to
15:45
Speaker 3: reach people that didn't even know that, you know, they
15:48
Speaker 3: were they would be willing to move to the Edgerton
15:52
Speaker 3: area for the right property, right, Well, maybe they were
15:54
Speaker 3: just looking at stotent but then Edgerton, Yeah, kind of
15:57
Speaker 3: opens their eyes to a different area. So it's important
16:00
Speaker 3: to reach people that weren't necessarily either looking for a
16:03
Speaker 3: house or weren't necessarily looking in a particular area.
16:07
Speaker 2: So social media allows us to do that.
16:08
Speaker 3: We can target within a geographic radius, put that home
16:13
Speaker 3: in people's feeds as they're going through Instagram or Facebook
16:16
Speaker 3: or LinkedIn for that matter. And you know what's interesting
16:20
Speaker 3: is you'll have you know, somebody's relative reach out to
16:23
Speaker 3: the person that they know is buying and say, hey,
16:25
Speaker 3: did you look at this one? And that really helps
16:27
Speaker 3: spread the kind of organic reach of our listings.
16:29
Speaker 1: I love what I see on Facebook. You'll see like
16:31
Speaker 1: a listing and you'll all of a sudden you'll see
16:33
Speaker 1: people that comment. You'll look at see what they're commenting on.
16:36
Speaker 2: It's just there.
16:36
Speaker 1: They're highlighting friends.
16:37
Speaker 3: And exactly tagging all these different people.
16:39
Speaker 1: Really hit them, Yeah, bringing them as we talked this
16:42
Speaker 1: morning with Matt Hetman with Rock Realty, the website of
16:45
Speaker 1: Rock Wisconsin dot com. That's r O c K Wisconsin
16:48
Speaker 1: dot com. Tell from number six so eight six seven
16:51
Speaker 1: three fifty four hundred, that's six seven three fifty four
16:54
Speaker 1: hundred for Rock Realty. I mentioned the website Rock Wisconsin
16:57
Speaker 1: dot com to link to the to the the little
17:00
Speaker 1: short link to the app mls dot rocks Slash app.
17:04
Speaker 1: Download that app to day. Whether you've got an Android
17:07
Speaker 1: or an Apple phone, they've got they've got an app
17:09
Speaker 1: for you and it's a really really powerful app. We
17:12
Speaker 1: talked to about about different things you were talking earlier.
17:16
Speaker 1: I'm about kind of being ahead of the curve. And
17:18
Speaker 1: I know you guys are are working on a new
17:20
Speaker 1: website another area. And I know, Matt, you are very
17:22
Speaker 1: how many websites do you own.
17:24
Speaker 2: But there's a number of thing.
17:26
Speaker 1: You're want to go Daddy's Gold Platinum Club members for sure.
17:30
Speaker 1: But you are adding a really nice website for buyers agents,
17:34
Speaker 1: aren't you.
17:35
Speaker 2: Yeah.
17:35
Speaker 3: I think having a buyer agent is becoming more and
17:38
Speaker 3: more important, making sure that you're having someone represent you
17:40
Speaker 3: on your side. And I think one of the things
17:43
Speaker 3: that we saw that was missing in the market was
17:45
Speaker 3: that buyers were kind of getting randomly assigned to agents.
17:50
Speaker 3: And I felt like, you know, when they're inquiring on
17:52
Speaker 3: some of the main online sites, it was just it
17:55
Speaker 3: was a was a random lottery of which agent they
17:58
Speaker 3: were going to get. So we're developed being a home
18:01
Speaker 3: buyer agent website where people can look through the thirty
18:06
Speaker 3: five plus Rock Realty agents.
18:07
Speaker 2: That we have learn more about them.
18:09
Speaker 3: You know, there's some questions and answers in there about
18:12
Speaker 3: their hobbies, about why real estate is important to them,
18:16
Speaker 3: and they can get to know that agent first, make
18:18
Speaker 3: sure that that agent does, you know, concentrate on let's say,
18:22
Speaker 3: first time home buyers or concentrated on leakfront property and
18:25
Speaker 3: they choose to interview the agent instead. We wanted to
18:28
Speaker 3: kind of reverse it a bit so that we can
18:31
Speaker 3: make some good matches and make sure that we have
18:32
Speaker 3: really happy home buyers and clients.
18:34
Speaker 1: Oh, that's a really really cool thing you mentioned that
18:36
Speaker 1: that site in that relationship is that's you know, when
18:39
Speaker 1: you're looking to buy a home and working with somebody,
18:41
Speaker 1: you want to make sure that that's a good that's
18:43
Speaker 1: a good fit. And you know, everybody's a little bit
18:45
Speaker 1: different as far as you know, how do we want
18:47
Speaker 1: to communicate what type of person? Some people like really
18:50
Speaker 1: hands on agents that are going to walk their features.
18:53
Speaker 1: I like, I'll just I'll check this out on my own.
18:55
Speaker 1: I just need you around obviously to open the open
18:58
