How a Missouri real estate agent sidesteps email spam filters with SMS

Meet Toby Prussman, a down-to-earth real estate agent from Missouri. Along with his business partner, Toby specializes in the sale of rural properties: farms, hunting properties, homes with sprawling acreage – you name it.

The challenge: Emails getting caught by spam filters

Toby and his partner had worked tirelessly over the years cultivating a hefty email list. A new listing on the rural real estate market? Boom! Their clients would get those details delivered right to their inbox.

Only, that wasn’t quite happening.

Customers were reaching out, wondering why they weren’t getting alerts about new listings. Digging into the issue, Toby and his partner discovered that nearly every email they were sending out was ending up in the dreaded spam folder, unseen and unread.

The solution: A simple, effective texting platform

Toby sought an affordable, effective, and simple answer to this problem, and he found it in SimpleTexting.

“If I had to describe SimpleTexting in three words, I would say it’s very affordable, it’s very effective. And as the name implies, it’s very simple.”

Switching their communication platform to SimpleTexting, Toby’s clients started to receive the alerts they’d been missing out on. 

The results were tangible, even if they weren’t always numerical: a happy customer base that gratefully responded to the switch.

The results: Happy clients and business growth

Once again feeling included in the real estate loop, Toby’s clients were happy. But it wasn’t just those customers on the list who were pleased; Toby and his partner were also reaping the benefits.

“It’s hard to put a dollar amount on some of that, but…it’s always nice to keep your clients happy and to grow your clientele.”
