How to Reignite Your Email List and Turn Cold Contacts Into Hot Leads!🔥

I know , I know …you’re feeling guilty because you haven’t emailed all those people in your database for months.

But don’t stress! I’m here to help and I’ll also predict that no matter how small or how stale your list is, there are buyers and sellers there just waiting to hear from you.

Here’s a series of emails you can send out to get the party started.

Step 1.

You need relevant content to create your emails and the #1 thing buyers and sellers want to know is what the real estate market is doing in your neck of the woods. So the first step is getting AI to create that content.

All you need to do is log in or create a free account at ChatGPT

Step 2.

Click on this custom link so you can access my customer AI Ad Machine Content Creator.

Step 3.

Click on the pre-crafted prompt that says: Is the market getting better or worse for sellers in the coming 6 months? When a user selects this question, before answering, please ask the user for their location, state, province and country.. In other words, what's the name of their city, town suburb or area so you will know where to search

…or just copy and paste the above copy into the custom ChatGPT so you can find out what your market is doing.

Step 4.

Then stick your result below the following prompt and you’ll have your emails!

Prompt: I’m a real estate agent and I have a big list of contacts with email addresses and I want to re-connect with them as I haven’t sent them an email for at least 6 months. Please act like a professional direct mail copywriter and give me a series of four compelling and engaging emails I can use to reactivate and reconnect with my list. I have buyers and sellers on my list so please consider the market prediction information following this prompt. I can help them with preparing to buy or sell, a good mortgage broker etc. I can help sellers plan for a great result, in fact I need to let potential sellers know that planning for a sale well before their property hits the market always helps produce a great result. Here’s a summary of what real estate prices are likely to do in the coming 6 months. Market Prediction: (paste your local market info here)
