The Speed-to-Lead Webinar Series: How Top Real Estate Teams and Sales Organizations Close More Deals

Responding faster wins more deals. According to a Lead Connect study analyzing buyer behavior, 78% of buyers work with the first responder, yet the average business takes 42 hours to reply, per Drift's lead response benchmarks. This gap between buyer expectation and seller performance is the single largest source of lost revenue in real estate and high-velocity sales.

The Speed-to-Lead Webinar Series is an open-enrollment monthly program that teaches real estate teams and sales organizations exactly how to close this gap — with speed-to-lead infrastructure, iMessage automation, CRM workflow design, and multichannel outreach strategies drawn from practitioners who have implemented these systems.

"Speed-to-lead is the most underinvested capability in real estate and SaaS sales today. The teams that respond in under 5 seconds convert at 21x the rate of teams that respond in 30 minutes — and most teams aren't even close to 5 minutes," says Bharadwaj Giridhar, Founder of Tuco AI, who has managed over 1,000 cold outreach campaigns and built iMessage automation infrastructure serving 37,500+ leads across 2,500+ campaigns.

Open enrollment. Live. Recorded for everyone who registers.

Who Should Attend These Sales Webinars?

This series is built for practitioners — the people who actually set up CRM workflows, manage lead routing, and are accountable for conversion rates. Specifically: real estate agents and team leads, SaaS sales managers and SDR leaders, marketing agency owners running client outreach on GoHighLevel, and any revenue leader responsible for pipeline velocity.

The average business takes 42 hours to respond to a new lead, yet 78% of deals go to the first responder. Every session in this series attacks that gap with specific, implementable tactics.

Teams that use 3 or more outreach channels generate 287% more responses than teams relying on a single channel. This series teaches you how to design, build, and measure those multichannel sequences.

iMessage delivers 94% or more of messages, compared to approximately 60% inbox placement for cold email. Sessions 1, 3, and 6 cover how to deploy iMessage as part of your speed-to-lead and re-engagement infrastructure.
