Manage your contacts

If you have multiple contacts in different stages of your pipeline, a Customer Relationship Management (CRM) system can help you stay on top of active leads and target your communications. The Premier Agent App offers a free and simple CRM solution to effectively manage all contacts from Zillow and Trulia and easily categorize leads based on their timeline transact.

Call recording: Never forget a detail!

The call-recording feature enables you to focus on the conversation without multitasking. Audio files of the recordings, including the caller’s phone number and call length, are delivered directly to your inbox so you can listen later, take notes, archive or forward.

You may opt out of this feature by visiting the Notification Settings page in the Premier Agent App, https://premieragent.zillow.com/crm/notifications. 

 

 

Contact insights: stay informed, convert more leads

The app provides information about the individual contacting you and the property being inquired about, before you even have to ask.

Contact profile summary provides any available information gathered about the contact including search history, pre-approval status, as well as social insights from social media sites such as LinkedIn and Facebook, when available.

Text to call - connect to buyers faster

Text-to-call connects you live to home buyers

  2. When you answer the call, you’ll hear contact information including full name and property details.
  3. Then, by pressing “1” on your phone you can connect instantly to the potential client.
