Since joining LoanChatLive.com, Scott Messier of The Messier Group, has been one of the most active and pro-active members in all of San Diego. LoanChatLive.com, a new service created this year, allows a mortgage shopper to connect with a local mortgage professional in real-time for an anonymous live chat for quick answers to their unique questions.
But Scott doesn’t just wait for live chat requests to come to him; he has taken action to drive people directly to his LoanChatLive.com landing page by posting ads on Craigslist, MySpace, Facebook and ActiveRain to name a few high-traffic sites that can direct mortgage consumers his way. One such posting that has proven quite effective for Scott is the following: http://sandiego.craigslist.org/rts/444558595.html Scott joined LoanChatLive.com several months ago (for FREE!) to take advantage of their state-of–the-art live chat platform and leverage their cutting-edge technology to increase and enhance his mortgage practice. “In a business that depends on high-quality leads and direct contact with potential clients, I find it hard to understand why a mortgage professional wouldn’t take advantage of this powerful service”, Scott said. “It can be very expensive to market yourself and with the barrier of entry so low in this industry now, you have to go above and beyond what the competition is doing in order to stand out” explains Kim Curtis, LoanChatLive.com co-founder. “Our service can handle a large portion of those marketing efforts for the mortgage professionals who join our site. We’re aggressively marketing the site every day and constantly implementing new strategies to drive more traffic to the site. All of this benefits the participating professionals directly and best of all, it doesn’t cost them a penny.” Additional services are available, for a small monthly fee, to mortgage professionals who want to expand their customer reach into additional zip codes, for example, or having their company banner strategically placed.
Over the years Scott has purchased hundreds of online leads from numerous vendors mostly with little success. Never before have there been live, exclusive leads coming directly to Scott with such little effort. “The technology is there”, says Kim Curtis, “it’s just a matter taking advantage of it, harnessing it into a single and powerful source, and making it easily accessible. We feel we have accomplished that with LoanChatLive.com.
