I think scoring with them is hard.  Also I heard from another agent that there are 2 types of leads.  The good one is where your broker pays them a fee to get the lead.  I think that lead is more qualified and it goes around the office only.  Perhaps it's a good idea to talk to your broker.

Just prior to retirement I sold my brokerage to a company that used OpCity and I hated it for that exact reason Judy Kuhtreiber . I was always quick to respond but to the best of my memory I don't ever remember scoring with them.

yes, you have to use the app in order to get it done quickly. It is possible as I do it all the time.

I am really against the whole concept of being a pop up toy hitting a buzzer in a game show. I guess they look at it as the person who is the quickest wants it the most. That's the criteria? 

Survey says "buzzzz". Get the app & you will be quicker.

When the lead platform is based on a 7 nano-second response time, one must be aware they need a business model that can accommodate that. What that means is someone always available to respond instantly. That is why this works best for brokerages or teams with someone dedicated to man the phone and lead notification.

The solo agent can not win in that game. There are simply too many delays existing  between the source and the agents device.  

The options in the 7 nano-second arena  are: BUY exclusive leads. $$$$$

Be aware, spending these BIG BUCK  is done with the intent to create the ability to deploy your own value based lead generation system.

My suggestion to you is look outside the real estate industry and observe and analyze the psychology behind the marketing created by the deep pockets. If you don't want to look and sound like every real estate agent, respond to what you see and wrap your vision around those delivery methods. 

Do a deep dive into the psychology behind Rocket Mortgage and Bank One Cafe.

Never heard of them, are they like Zillow where you pay for a zipcode to be the "Premier" Agent? Personally, I have never paid for a lead. I rather be out in the field gathering my own. Good luck.

I tried it a year or so ago. There really isn't a trick that I can remember. You just have to answer that call within about 5 seconds. It's nearly impossible!

I did for about a year. Low quality leads and none closed. Spent more time chasing them with no results.

Run away, fast. Don't bother burning through money and wasting your time on leads with bad email, hostile as they have been bothered by hundreds of others, or bad phone number

Have tried a similar system and never did become 'the chosen one' no matter how fast I was to respond. I'd pass...
