Consumers are increasingly looking for high-touch interactions with real estate brokers. The proliferation of mobile technology and social media channels has made instant connection and accessibility a critical factor for establishing leads and nurturing them further through the sales funnel. And yet, agents cannot be constantly tethered to a device to respond and nurture leads. By providing AI-powered chatbot functionality, potential clients can interact and ask questions via a broker web site while Chime Assistant handles the request – even in the middle of the night.

Featuring a 30 second instant response and intelligent interaction that mirrors chatting with a real person, Chime Assistant can automatically classify leads based on information gathered during the conversation. Agents will then be notified with a qualified lead and can take immediate action. Intelligent automation removes the manual work and costs associated with lead capture while simultaneously elevating conversion rates.

With Chime Assistant agents can:

• Leverage Automated Lead Qualifying – enabling them to respond to and qualify new leads 24/7 even while in the field showing houses, putting together a contract, or at the closing table.
• Ensure Conversational Lead Capture – providing proactive opportunities to engage web site visitors as they browse, while gathering preference data and contact information for CRM integration.

During the event, attendees can schedule a demo at the Chime booth (#704) to see the AI-powered Chatbot in action and enter to win an Apple Watch. Additionally, Wednesday, July 24th Chime will participate in the Booth Bar Crawl Happy Hour event from 4:30 – 6:00 p.m. on the show floor and Inman show attendees will have an exclusive opportunity to receive $100 off the monthly fee of the Chime enterprise package for new customers.

"In the digital age, consumers are looking for immediate gratification and quick answers to their questions. Brokers already know their web site can be a powerful lead generation tool, but by leveraging our AI-powered chatbot they will soon have even more opportunities to make a connection – even if they aren't in the office," said Mike McGowan, Vice President of Sales, Chime. "Our introduction of Chime Assistant will ensure agents can capitalize on web-based leads and won't lose out to a competitor simply because they weren't available. No matter where a prospect may be in the sales cycle, we have the proven tools and technologies to help real estate teams manage their leads and move them faster to close."
