Paragon Connect Reverse Prospecting

We’re thrilled to bring Reverse Prospecting to Paragon Connect! While it’s already available in Paragon Pro, we’ve reimagined it in Connect with fresh workflows and exciting new features.

This new feature has several key benefits:

• All agents and contacts are eligible to participate without any setup
• Listing agents can see counts of all contact matches, but never the identity of the contact
• Reverse prospect emails are sent individually to each contact’s agent, no other agents will see details about your matching contacts
• New ‘Search by Reverse Prospect ID’ to identify matched contacts easily
• Individual agents may choose to opt out of receiving Reverse Prospecting emails and the new ‘Match My Contacts’ feature

Ready to explore the possibilities? Let’s dive in!

Settings:
It all begins with a new setting! In your system settings, you’ll find our Reverse Prospecting feature, automatically enabled for all users by default. Make sure this setting is active to unlock the full power of Reverse Prospecting!

Reverse Prospecting ID:
Say goodbye to manually setting up aliases for contacts in Paragon Connect! Now, each contact automatically receives a unique Reverse Prospecting ID, making your workflow faster and more efficient. Just open any contact, scroll down, and you’ll find the Reverse Prospecting section with their assigned ID—it’s that simple!

Search By Reverse Prospecting ID:
We’ve enhanced both Power Search and Contact Search in Paragon Connect, allowing you to find contacts instantly with just their Reverse Prospecting ID.

Reverse Prospecting Location:
Find the powerful Reverse Prospecting report for Paragon Connect right within the Published Listing module in Listing Maintenance! This feature lets you prospect on listings you manage with ease. Simply access it as a quick-link action in your overflow menu.

Reverse Prospecting Report:
When you run a Reverse Prospecting report, it identifies agents who have a search with your listing matched to a contact. Each result appears as an individual card, showcasing the agent, their office, and a list of Reverse Prospecting IDs.  Each ID highlights the match date and listing categorization, giving you valuable insights into buyer interest levels. Rest assured, client information remains fully protected—other agents won’t see or contact your client directly. Instead, they’ll reach out to you, keeping you in full control of the communication.

Contact Agent:
Effortlessly connect with agents using three intuitive options!  To get started, simply tap the overflow menu to call, text, or email an agent directly. Need to contact everyone at once? With the bulk email feature, just click the email icon in the app bar, and craft one message that’s sent individually to each agent—ensuring privacy and ease.  Want to reach out to select agents? No problem! Tap the profile image on their card to choose them, then use the email icon in the contextual bar to send your message directly.  Fast, secure, and hassle-free communication—exactly what you need to stay connected!

Email Review:
Agents receiving reverse prospecting get an instant snapshot of your listing, including the number of interested contacts and their level of interest. With just a click or tap on the “View Listing” button, they’ll be seamlessly directed to Paragon Connect, where they can access a detailed report showcasing the list of contacts who are interested in the property. It’s quick, easy, and designed to help agents take action—right when they need it most!

Sell Side Report:
We’ve taken Reverse Prospecting to the next level with exciting new updates to the Sell Side Report! The report includes a dedicated section that tracks the total categorizations of all prospective buyers—giving you clear insights into how your listing is performing in the market. You’ll see the total counts for favorites, possible matches, and rejections, all in one place.  Agents can now click directly on these counts to access the same Reverse Prospecting report, allowing them to easily reach out to agents representing interested buyers. It’s a smarter, more connected way to track and engage with the market—helping you stay ahead of the competition!

Match My Contacts:
If you’re excited about all you’ve seen so far, it gets even better with an exclusive new feature in Paragon Connect! Imagine viewing a listing and wondering if any of your contacts might be interested. Now, with “Match My Contacts,” you can get instant answers. Simply select “Match My Contacts” from the overflow menu while viewing a listing, and a report will show you which contacts have shown interest, the search name, and their level of interest. Plus, with just a tap, you can quickly call, text, or email those contacts directly from the report.
