Real-Talk Reminder:

Your Brain Isn't a CRM

Chris Morgan Real Geeks VP of Sales By: Chris Morgan, VP of Sales at Real Geeks



You follow up when you remember. You dig through texts for an address.

You promise to send that listing and...

Oops.

Real estate is chaos. But your business doesn’t have to be.

Working from your phone is fine… Until it isn’t.

At some point, all those sticky notes, text threads, and mental reminders start slipping through the cracks. And in real estate, those cracks cost money.

 

 

This is the part where the deal falls apart.


In this business, speed and consistency win. Without a reliable way to track every lead and touchpoint, opportunities can disappear before you even know they were there to begin with.

Many deals fall apart, not because the house wasn’t right or the price was too high.

They fall apart because you forgot to follow up.

That buyer ghosted. That seller went cold.

And someone else—someone with a system—scooped them up.

 

There’s a name for that system.


It’s called a CRM: Customer Relationship Management.

It doesn’t sound sexy. But neither does “lost commission.”

A CRM isn’t just a database. It’s your memory, your follow-up plan, and your deal tracker—without the mental load.

 

The stats don’t lie.


Agents who use CRMs are:

✔  65% more likely to hit sales targets

✔  50% more productive

✔  100% less likely to forget who Karen-from-the-open-house is

Numbers like that aren’t a fluke—they’re the result of running your business like, well, a business.

You can keep winging it from your phone.

Or you can operate like the business you say you’re building.

 

 

Real Geeks didn’t build a CRM for Fortune 500s.


We built it for you.

The solo agent.
The team leader juggling showings, offers, and sanity.
The “I’ll call them back after this appointment” agent.

We built a lead manager that thinks ahead.

That follows up when you forget.
That tells you who’s hot, who’s not, and who needs a nudge.
That brings your Zillow, Google, and Facebook leads into one view.

And yes, it still works on your phone—but with the structure and automation that keep deals moving forward.

Not someday.  Today.

 

 

You are the brand.


You are the experience.

But your system? That’s the engine.  And if your engine’s a call log, a notes app, and hope…  It’s time for an upgrade.

The agents pulling ahead in this market aren’t doing more.

They’re doing it smarter.  They’re using Real Geeks.

Your brain is not a CRM. Stop treating it like one.

Let’s show you what a real one can do.
