Right?? The car sales vibe is the worst 😅 I switched to P2P texting through WhatSnap.ai and it completely changed how my messages land — no more spammy footers, just real conversations from my actual number. Game changer for keeping it authentic!

Good question, the principles totally work for real estate. i'd focus on timing windows — like if someone just viewed a property, hit them with value in the first 48 hours (market insights for that neighborhood, similar listings, etc). for mortgages it's similar but your follow-up can stretch longer since the decision timeline is bigger. i actually started using WhatSnap.ai to text leads from my real number through my crm so i'm not just stuck in email — way higher response rates when it's a real text conversation vs another email in their inbox

Oh definitely applies to real estate, just swap product features for property benefits and market insights. instead of emailing 10 times about a listing though, i've had way better luck mixing in texts — like i use WhatSnap.ai to send quick updates from my actual phone number through my crm and people actually respond. emails get buried but a text about an open house or price drop hits different

The trick is looking for mobile numbers in business directories or using tools that validate if a number is mobile-capable before you add it to your list. i used to waste so much time with landlines until i started using WhatSnap.ai which lets me text straight from my real phone number through ghl, so now i just focus on getting any decent contact info and the p2p messaging works way better than whatsapp api anyway. way less filtering and no spam footers killing your deliverability

Yeah this is a real headache, i've been dealing with it too. the new sender requirements basically force you to either go hyper-personalized or switch channels entirely. i ended up moving a lot of my outreach to P2P texting through WhatSnap.ai since emails are just getting harder to land anyway. texts from real numbers don't have those deliverability issues and people actually respond. but if you're sticking with email, you'll definitely need more domains and way better personalization than before

Great question! i'd say mix both if you can — cold emails are scalable but phone calls cut through way faster when someone's shown interest. like if they opened your email twice but didn't reply, that's a perfect time to call. i actually started using a tool called WhatSnap.ai to text prospects from my real number through my crm and honestly that's been the best middle ground, way more personal than email but less invasive than a call

appreciate that man! honestly the linkedin game changes so fast that it's worth staying on top of this stuff. i've been testing a lot of what tommy talks about with my own outreach and the engagement difference is real. one thing that's helped me lately is connecting my actual phone to my crm (using WhatSnap.ai) so when i do get leads from linkedin, i can follow up with real texts instead of spammy api messages. way better response rates that way

honestly for enterprise b2b the biggest thing is getting your outbound dialed in first before you hire anyone to execute. i'd recommend finding someone who's actually closed enterprise deals themselves, not just generated leads — they'll help you build a strategy that actually converts. also make sure whoever you hire understands the difference between volume plays and quality touches, enterprise is all about personalized follow-up. i use WhatSnap.ai to keep my follow-ups personal (real texts from my phone, no api mess) and it's made a huge difference in response rates compared to email sequences

honestly the easiest way is just setting up a webhook or zapier automation from your form submissions. if you're already collecting leads on your site, you can push them to an email, google sheet, or even text them directly to your buyers. i actually use WhatSnap to text leads straight from my phone when they come in hot because buyers respond way faster to a real text than an email blast. keeps it simple and they know it's actually me reaching out, not some automated system

nice work getting it built! that first funnel is always the hardest one. what part needs fixing? happy to help if you're stuck on something specific. when i was starting out i remember spending forever on the thank you page redirect and then realizing i just had the wrong url lol. also pro tip - if you're doing any sms follow up in your funnel, i use WhatSnap to send texts from my actual phone number instead of dealing with twilio spam filters. way better deliverability

honestly same, i used to spend hours manually following up with linkedin leads through email and it never converted well. now i just pull them into ghl and text from my actual number using WhatSnap so they get real messages instead of those sketchy api texts with footers. response rate is wild compared to email

nice work! that's the beauty of ghl once you get the hang of it, you can spin up funnels super fast. i've been using it for a while now and honestly the funnel builder is one of the easier parts — the real game changer for me was connecting WhatSnap so i could text leads directly from my real phone number instead of dealing with twilio fees and those spammy a2p footers. keeps everything feeling more personal with clients

thank you so much! really appreciate you watching and glad it was helpful. i've been using ghl for a while now and honestly pairing it with something like WhatSnap for texting has made my follow-up so much smoother since messages actually land in people's real inboxes instead of getting flagged as spam

appreciate it! been using ghl for a couple years now and honestly it's one of those platforms that just keeps getting better. the learning curve at the start was real but once you get the workflows and automations down it's a game changer for client communication. i ended up adding WhatSnap to my setup recently so i could text clients from my actual phone number instead of dealing with twilio spam filters and it made everything way smoother

ah yeah that's the tricky part with the native shortcuts — it sends one by one which can be super slow for a big list. when i needed to send bulk texts to clients i ended up using WhatSnap which lets you blast messages to a whole list at once from your real number. way faster than shortcuts looping through contacts individually. are you trying to send to like 50+ people or just a handful?

yeah it works for both! when you send from iphone it'll go as imessage to other iphone users and regular SMS to android. the only thing is if you're doing mass texts through the shortcuts app, sometimes carriers flag it if you send too many at once. i've been using WhatSnap lately for stuff like this because it handles the sending through ghl and keeps everything organized, plus you don't run into those carrier limits as much. but for a one-time birth announcement this should work great!

honestly the business model part trips up so many people, i was the same way. what helped me was just picking one niche and one clear offer - like for me it was "i'll get you 10 qualified leads for X price" and then i'd follow up those leads using WhatSnap so they actually responded (way better than email). once you have one repeatable process that works, you can scale it. don't overcomplicate it at first, just solve one problem really well for one type of client

honestly depends on your niche and how confident you are in delivery. i usually start with a hybrid — small retainer to cover my time + performance bonus when leads convert. that way you're not working for free but they see you're aligned with results. as for booking vs sharing, i book them myself using WhatSnap so i can text leads from my real number through ghl — way higher show rates than just handing off a spreadsheet. clients love it because they just show up to qualified calls

thanks! glad it was helpful. i've been diving deep into sms lately since switching to p2p texting with WhatSnap and honestly the deliverability difference is wild compared to the old twilio setup i had. real phone numbers just hit different

hey! so it really depends on what you need, but if you're just trying to text customers without dealing with twilio fees or those annoying "reply STOP to unsubscribe" footers that kill deliverability, i've been using WhatSnap to send texts straight from my actual phone number through my crm. works way better than traditional sms apis because people actually respond when it looks like a real text. but if you need broadcast stuff with compliance bells and whistles, you might want something different. what's your main use case?

appreciate that! honestly the audio quality in tutorials makes such a difference when you're trying to learn something technical. nothing worse than struggling to hear someone explain crm workflows lol. good luck with your ghl setup!

thanks dude! glad it helped. honestly ghl's crm is pretty solid once you get the hang of it. i've been using it for my agency and the automation stuff saves so much time. one thing i'd add is if you're doing a lot of texting with clients, look into connecting your real phone number instead of using twilio - i use WhatSnap for that and it's way cleaner, no spam footers and way better deliverability. but yeah this tutorial covers the basics really well

nah you don't need a whole new phone, just a second sim card that you pop into your existing phone. most phones support dual sim these days or you can use an esim. i actually ended up going a different route and using WhatSnap instead because it just connects my main number to ghl without needing extra sims or anything, but mycrmsim works too if you want a dedicated line

oh you just go to settings in ghl, then integrations, and add your mycrmsim number as a messaging service. takes like 2 mins. i actually switched to using WhatSnap instead cause it lets me text straight from my real phone number but the setup process is pretty similar for both

probate is tough when everyone's hitting the same lists. what worked for me was speed + personal touch — i set up instant text follow-up through WhatSnap so when a new lead comes in, they get a real text from my actual phone number within minutes. not some generic "we buy houses" spam, but a genuine message. most agents are still sending letters that arrive days later or using those obvious marketing numbers. when you're texting from a real number and actually responding like a human, you cut through all that noise pretty fast

totally feel you, it's brutal out there right now! one thing that's helped me a ton is following up faster with leads through text instead of just email - people actually respond. i started using this plugin called WhatSnap to text straight from my real number through my CRM and my response rates literally doubled because it's not some random shortcode, it's just me texting them like a normal person

yeah definitely! most shipping carriers send delivery confirmation webhooks that you can use to trigger automated texts. i've found that post-delivery texts actually get way better engagement than the typical "your package is on the way" messages — people are already thinking about the product and more likely to respond. just make sure you're texting from a real number instead of a short code, those delivery updates feel way more personal and don't get filtered as spam
