How Using the “Get Alerts!” Button Boosts Client Engagement
Maximize Your Leads with the “Get Alerts!” Feature for Community Pages
Why This Feature Matters
The “Get Alerts!” button is crucial for transforming site visitors into valuable leads by:
- Encouraging user registration through a clear call-to-action (CTA).
- Automatically creating saved searches based on selected community page filters.
- Enhancing lead engagement with ongoing follow-ups.
If a visitor frequently checks listings in a specific neighborhood, activating alerts keeps them informed about new, relevant listings, enhancing their chances of conversion into a client.
