What Netflix can teach estate agents about winning instructions
Netflix keeps viewers hooked by serving the right content at the right time. Estate agents can win more instructions by using the same principle — tracking client behaviour and delivering tailored, timely communication.
The Netflix model
Netflix doesn’t wait for you to search — it predicts what you’ll want next based on what you’ve already watched. This anticipation keeps users engaged and loyal.
With an AI-powered CRM like Lifesycle, you can track behaviours such as property views, blog reads, or valuation tool visits. This allows you to identify when someone might be ready to sell — even before they tell you.
Timely, relevant content wins instructions
If a homeowner is reading “What’s my home worth in 2025?” you can instantly send a valuation follow-up. If a past valuation client starts viewing properties in a new area, you can re-engage them with tailored advice and Estate Agents all over the UK are using this to gain an unfair advantage over agents using CRM platforms that just store client details.
Why it works
It’s about relevance. People are more likely to respond when your message matches their current interest. AI ensures you spot those moments and act fast, giving you a competitive edge. But what if you and your team are busy when those moments arise? The key is automation — capturing every behaviour in one system and triggering the right response at the right time. It’s how agents move from guessing to knowing.
