This is something that Respond Flow, an SMS-based CRM tool, hopes to address by helping you craft realistic, convenient messages to make your customers feel valued.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/respondflow.com\/?ref=producthunt\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Respond Flow<\/a> is, self-admittedly, the \u201cMailChimp of SMS\u201d. This means that they cover everything from your location-based phone number to your marketing resources and strategies, all of which are available from an easy-to-use dashboard.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a lofty comparison to be sure, but while Respond Flow doesn\u2019t incorporate the web-hosting aspect of customer management that one finds in MailChimp, it more than makes up for that discrepancy through customer engagement, thereby earning its place in the CRM line-up on principle.<\/p>\n<p>Respond Flow also leans into the personalized communication style that many brands have embraced in the last few years. Perhaps one of the most obnoxious aspects of any automated communique is that feeling of being just another number on a list; this is something the company is clearly aware of.<\/p>\n<p>Instead of making customers feel like cash resources, Respond Flow allows you to reach out to or engage with customers at all hours&#8211;a process for which you can control the parameters from your Respond Flow dashboard. The best part of this system is that Respond Flow allows you to create lists of customers that, based on your interactions with them, enables custom content depending on those customers\u2019 preferences.<\/p>\n<p>Respond Flow also boasts a bevy of other features that make your life substantially easier. These include everything from social media integration and mobile app support&#8211;you know, the things you expect in 2020&#8211;to the aforementioned list feature and some customization options to help customers feel like you\u2019re actually talking to them one-on-one. Keyword integration and formulaic messages based on customer responses are, of course, part of the deal as well.<\/p>\n<p>Similarly, you can set up different location-appropriate numbers for each of your brick-and-mortar locations that use Respond Flow, thus affording more credibility to your communications with local customers. It\u2019s a subtle touch that is sure to save you countless hours, headaches, and cash along the way.<\/p>\n<p>Currently, Respond Flow offers a two-week free trial. If you\u2019re interested in checking out a new CRM solution, consider giving this one a shot.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(REAL ESTATE TECHNOLOGY) Respond Flow is the new &#8220;Mailchimp of SMS&#8221;, allowing you to easily automate personalized text conversations with your customers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":337375,"featured_media":16159,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"wds_primary_category":0,"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[93],"tags":[454,1234,299],"class_list":["post-16158","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-real-estate-tech","tag-crm-2","tag-real-estate-news","tag-real-estate-technology-2"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/theamericangenius.com\/housing\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/07\/Screen-Shot-2020-07-09-at-8.28.27-AM-2.jpg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/theamericangenius.com\/housing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16158","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/theamericangenius.com\/housing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/theamericangenius.com\/housing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theamericangenius.com\/housing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/337375"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theamericangenius.com\/housing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=16158"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/theamericangenius.com\/housing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16158\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":16169,"href":"https:\/\/theamericangenius.com\/housing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16158\/revisions\/16169"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theamericangenius.com\/housing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/16159"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/theamericangenius.com\/housing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=16158"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theamericangenius.com\/housing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=16158"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theamericangenius.com\/housing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=16158"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
