KWKLY Named Preferred Mobile Solutions Provider

RISMEDIA, JUNE 21, 2010—KWKLY has been selected by Leading Real Estate Companies of the World as a preferred provider for its network of 600 real estate firms.

KWKLY provides a text messaging solution for real estate brokers at the point of interest for consumers, using the same keyword and short code on every sign installed by a brokerage. When the brokerage’s keyword is texted, home buyers are prompted to either enter the address of the property of interest or click a URL that uses the phone’s GPS to display the five closest properties within a browser page–all branded to the participating brokerage without requiring downloads to the user’s phone.

According to LeadingRE Vice President Phil Edwards, KWKLY presents a unique offering. “Using a technology accessible to almost everyone, KWKLY provides home buyers requested information almost immediately, while sending the lead to the agent for follow-up. It is a great example of customer service tailored to this technical age.”

“From my experience at the recent LeadingRE conference, it was clear to me that these brokers are focused on customer service,” said Tony Romeo, KWKLY president. “With our tool, they are able to grab customers at the exact moment they need help. What better way to demonstrate responsiveness and, ultimately, win more business?
