Ris Media Conference

Hello Groupies, I was at the RIS media conference in NYC this . All I heard from brokers was agents are lazy, they don't respond to email lead inquiries and are leaving $ on the table.

Marilyn from the wav Group is doing some research that will show agents are buying blackberry's left and right-- but fail to enable text messaging and the email capability because of Cost and market condidtions- So.. leads are still going on average 4 or 5 hours before they are responded to.

We have been looking at thechnology that will ring your cell phone the instant a consumer hits SUBMIT ( or send) you will HEAR the message (CALLER: jane doe, comments: Want to buy a home now please call" then you can hit "1" on yoru cell for an immediate ringback to the consumer - all in 15 seconds from when they hit SUBMIT.

Anyone care to discuss the need for urgency, or the downside of being too quick!
