Great Agent is a platform where Real Estate Agencies can automate their activities by providing Real Estate Agents with a suitable software to track the progress of their deals.

The success of real estate agencies totally depends on their opportunity to serve more clients faster than their competitors can do. However, the real estate agents who use a paper diary, MS Excel or even MS word cannot operate as effectively and efficiency, as automatized systems allow to. To automatize agents' activities so that they could focus on decision-making instead of routine jobs, customer relationship management tools have been introduced.

The existing CRM software for a real estate can be distinguished into two categories: a web-based software and a desktop CRM software.

Firstly, CRM systems allow serving more clients, which, in turn, bring more money to the agency. Secondly, CRM systems focus on maintenance of relationships with the clients: the system provides advice to the agents how to contact past clients, how to communicate with leads and can automatically archive the any contact with the customer, whether it was made by phone, by email or via social networks. And, finally, CRM systems allow automating marketing and managing follow-up work. In addition, the databases allow storing data, in case, if a business is paused or it can be sold to other real estate agencies.
