And now? Quite simply: a specified SMS code is sent and immediately comes all the important information about the real estate as SMS to the mobile phone. Didn&#8217;t you know yet? We explain how it&#8217;s done.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Living space is becoming scarcer, more expensive \u2013 more in-demand. If you cleverly design your real estate marketing strategy, you will gain important advantages over the competition. At the same time interesseted tenants and potential buyers are offered a lot of service to simplify their search for the dream home. The goal is the direct path to the new home and this requires an equally direct and reliable communication path. What would be better suited than the well-tried and popular SMS?<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section><section class=\"l-section wpb_row height_small\"><div class=\"l-section-h i-cf\"><div class=\"g-cols vc_row via_flex valign_top type_default stacking_default\"><div class=\"vc_col-sm-12 wpb_column vc_column_container\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><div class=\"wpb_text_column\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><h2>Inform directly on site about your real estate<\/h2>\n<p>Be it by chance when passing by or during the targeted search: Sooner or later someone stands in front of your real estate and want to know what&#8217;s behind the scenes. A corresponding information board usually provides only brief basic data and contact information. For many interested buyers that&#8217;s too complicated and not fast enough. Therefore, extend your signposts with a smart call-to-action message, either as a short code (numeric\/ letter combination) or as a QR code for scanning.<\/p>\n<p>This way, the interested person can be informed directly and fully automatically via SMS &#8211; while standing in front of the real estate. At the same time, it gives their a first impression of the building structure as well as valuable details about the equipment, room layout, prices, etc. However, you are not permanently interrupted by calls during your work and still convey reliability and competence.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"g-cols wpb_row via_flex valign_top type_default stacking_default\"><div class=\"vc_col-sm-12 wpb_column vc_column_container\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><div class=\"w-image align_center us_animate_hfc\" style=\"animation-delay:0.2s\"><div class=\"w-image-h\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"711\" src=\"https:\/\/www.seven.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/immobilienscout-EN-1024x711.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.seven.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/immobilienscout-EN-1024x711.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.seven.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/immobilienscout-EN-300x208.png 300w, https:\/\/www.seven.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/immobilienscout-EN-768x533.png 768w, https:\/\/www.seven.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/immobilienscout-EN-600x417.png 600w, https:\/\/www.seven.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/immobilienscout-EN.png 1037w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"wpb_text_column\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><p style=\"text-align: center;\">The short code is simply sent to the given phone number, and interested parties will automatically receive an SMS with information about your real estate.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section><section class=\"l-section wpb_row height_small\"><div class=\"l-section-h i-cf\"><div class=\"g-cols vc_row via_flex valign_top type_default stacking_default\"><div class=\"vc_col-sm-12 wpb_column vc_column_container\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><div class=\"wpb_text_column\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><h2>Fully automated SMS marketing<\/h2>\n<p>The principle is both simple and ingenious: Person A (in our case, the interested party) sends the SMS code, which is on the information board, to the mobile number also indicated there. Of course, this doesn&#8217;t\u00a0 have to be your own number. A virtual or physical number would be optimal for this. This can, for example, be integrated into your SMS service via an <a href=\"https:\/\/seven.io\/en\/products\/inbound-sms\/\" rel=\"noopener\">inbound system<\/a> and serve as sender for outgoing messages.<\/p>\n<p>The message ends up at the server of your SMS service provider and is verified there. Fully automatically, the system then sends a pre-programmed SMS back to person A. This includes, for example, information about square meters, year of construction, availability and more. The process takes hardly a few seconds and then the SMS appears on the receiving device of the person A.<\/p>\n<p>The key advantage: The receiving device (of person A) does not require internet access or other special requirements. Even older mobile devices can easily receive SMS. At any time.

The gateway checks the data &#8211; again everything fully automatic &#8211; and finally sends the corresponding email to person A.

However, as you may have noticed, no person B comes into play. Everything can be fully automatically configured on request. Of course, you set the desired parameters and contents in advance, but there is no given syntax to you. At least not with professional SMS Webapps, where you can integrate your external software via API interface. This gives you numerous options to customize your application.

Use a few keywords and then your SMS code or the picture of a QR code.

Design the SMS code as conspicuously and individually as possible for each object in order to market your real estate in a detailed and targeted manner.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Cross-Marketing:<\/strong> Employee vehicles, buses and trams as well as moving boxes can all be labeled in an appealing way. Your SMS code can actually appear everywhere.
