A Lucrativ Brokerage Begins With Effective Onboarding
Do you remember the first thing Facebook asked you to do when activating your account?
Without exception, every response I’ve received has been either “add a profile picture” or “fill out your bio.”
Both are wrong.
The first thing you are asked to do is to “Add Friends,” and then to “Find Friends.” Only after that can you add your information.

This is because Facebook identified that if you added 7 friends in your first 10 days, they would retain you as an active user. They rode that philosophy all the way to 1,000,000,000 active users and beyond.
This is often referred to as an “a-ha” in the software community.
So, what a-ha’s do you have architected when you onboard new recruits?
According to MIT Sloan, 55% to 75% of companies fail to meet the expected return with their CRM initiatives. When surveyed, 87% of executives pinned the failure of their CRM not on the technology, but on their inadequate implementation and change management.
To win the PropTech war, a solution must win the implementation war, which is commonly relegated to a secondary consideration, if not a complete afterthought.
