The challenge

Agents were drowning in leads from Meta and 99acres — 80% of them unqualified tyre-kickers, but impossible to tell which 20% were serious without a 10-minute qualification call.

By the time an agent got to a hot lead, the buyer had already talked to 3 other builders. Response time was the single biggest leak.

Meanwhile, follow-up for cold leads was non-existent — anyone not ready today was dropped and never re-engaged.

Our approach

  1. 01

    Build the scoring model

    Combined source data (ad creative, utm, form fields), behavioural signals (pages visited, time-on-site, revisits), and a short WhatsApp qualifier ("when are you looking to move?", "budget range?") into a 0-100 score.

  2. 02

    Instant auto-reply

    Every lead gets a branded WhatsApp message within 60 seconds of form submission — answers the top 5 questions, shares the brochure, and asks 3 qualifier questions.

  3. 03

    Hot-lead handoff

    Leads scoring 70+ get pinged to the agent on duty via WhatsApp with a full context card — they can call back knowing exactly what the buyer wants.

  4. 04

    Cold-lead nurture

    Low-score leads enter a 14-step WhatsApp + email sequence over 90 days — project updates, price movements, new photography. Re-scored as they engage.
