2007 Development Plan Input
We are evaluating several home page lead generation feature additions, and we would like your feedback on which of the three following ideas are most interesting.

  • "Moving Checklist" Offer - Add an offer to email a "Moving Checklist" on your home page, with a link to a request form. Once  a form is completed by a web visitor,  iHOUSE sends the email with a Checklist PDF to your client automatically for you, and you capture the lead.

  • "Major Trends in Home Design Review" Offer - Add an offer to email a "Major Design Trends Article" on your home page, with a link to a request form. Once  a form is completed by a web visitor,  iHOUSE sends the email with the article PDF to your client automatically for you, and you capture the lead.

  • Click-to-Talk Button -  Customers on your website click a button, enter their phone number on the form and they are instantly connected to your phone.   Studies have shown that visitors love this feature because they know they aren't going to be kept waiting in some call queue, and they know they are going to get your voice on the line within seconds.  As the agent, you can specify which hours you are available and you capture their contact details too. (see a sample at during business hours at www.ihouseweb.com).
