If you’re a real estate professional using existing technologies like customer relationship (CRM) software and transaction management software (TMS), you’re no doubt aware that these tech products, although helpful, have serious limitations.

Your CRM is powerless to help you with the most important aspect of your communications: keeping them organized, accessible, easily searchable and automatically archived.

4BIZapp® gives you an easy, hassle-free way to record all your transaction-related phone conversations. It works with all carriers and devices without the need for any additional hardware or software.

4BIZapp® saves you time. It automatically organizes all your transaction-related phone and video calls, voice mail messages, texts, emails and attachments in one easy-to-access location sorted by transaction and the contacts that created them.

The average user toggles between different applications and websites nearly 1,200 times each day. -Harvard Business Review, August, 2022.

4BIZapp® is smart protection against costly lawsuits. When you’ve done your job well, and all your communications are archived in one safe place, it’s easy for you to protect yourself against people who accuse you of misconduct.

The numbers of lawsuits against brokers, agents and real-estate professionals increased by 9% between 2021 and 2022. Zach Vollmer, an SVP at Victor Insurance Managers, predicted that the number of lawsuits will further increase. -Insider

4BIZapp® cyber security safeguards your transactions from cyber & communication fraud with a patent pending communication firewall that preemptively blocks all phishing attacks, like wire fraud attempts, ransomware, AI voice and video impersonation & more.

4BIZapp® should be your first defense

Error & Omissions insurance claims should be your last

Perhaps you think that you’re already protected against lawsuits because you’re paying premiums for errors and omissions insurance. But if you’re actually following your insurance company’s recommendations for how to protect yourself, you’ll quickly realize that the 4BIZapp offers better protection than what you’re currently doing.

Insurers typically recommend that you manually document every communication with your clients:

Are you doing all this?

And are you doing it all well?

If you are, how much time is it taking you to manage?

How accurate is your manual documentation? Do you consistently find that you’re able to remember every last detail and nuance of your phone conversations with clients when you summarize and document them later? Do you ever miss documenting critical details?

Wouldn’t you be better off having actual recordings of your phone conversations that can be automatically emailed to you and your clients, plus automatically archived and organized for you?

Think about this: Your E&O insurance provider isn’t a magic genie. They need you to be smart, accurate, proactive and ethical about doing your job; if you aren’t, they’ll be raising your premiums at best, or, in a worst case scenario, they’ll be out of business.

This is why they recommend you document your communications. They know it protects you AND it protects them. It’s to your advantage and theirs to maintain records about your communications, because this is the only way to pre-emptively protect yourself and them against malicious lawsuits.

They know that many E&O lawsuits can be proactively prevented simply by producing evidence of the actual contents of your communications.

If you don’t document your communications, you’re vulnerable to lawsuits from predatory clients because they are fully aware that it falls somewhere between challenging and impossible for you to prove what you actually said to them.

If you’re doing your job, you’ll find that the 4BIZapp is easily worth its minimal cost because, first of all, it saves you time that would otherwise be spent on documenting your communications. Beyond that, since 4BIZapp’s technology allows you to record the entire contents of your phone conversations, it vastly reduces your vulnerability to malicious lawsuits.

The main takeaway: Even if you’re paying for E&O insurance, you’ll find that 4BIZapp is worth its minimal cost because it helps you do a better job of following your insurance company’s recommendations for keeping yourself safe.

Features

Other functions simply integrate directly with the apps you already use. Simply create a transaction, link contacts to it, and start communicating. It's easy and fast.

Sentiment alerts

You get text alerts notifying you if the software encounters evidence of a possible problem or high priority situation with clients or business associates. This can help you to be proactive about resolving potential problems quickly.

Trust reporting

Improve customer relations and your personal performance growth by taking advantage of a tool suite that’s designed to help you identify trust issues and navigate them with finesse.

FAQs

4BIZapp® frequently asked questions

thumb

A CRM is used to interact with contacts, but it doesn't capture all communicaitons, like call recording. Further it doesn't organize conversations by a transaction name, rather only by contact. If you do 25 transactions a year with a title rep who is a contact in your CRM, first and foremost, you have failed to record every call. Next, every communication you do have, like email is just listed under your contact. With the 4BIZapp®, every conversation with your title rep is now organized by the specific transaction it is assoicated with, and further contains every other associated contact's conversations from calls, texts, emails & attachments. Plus you can add notes to any communication, regardless of type. It could be very handy to flag and / or label an important call and text, i.e. Easement issue. Ths makes it easy to find in a year if a lawsuit were to arise, and the memory has long forgotten the intracies of the transaction.

No, they do not. They have a totally seamless experience using their normal communication preferences. When you link them to a transaction they are involved in from the 4BIZapp®, they receive a vCard to update your contact info and an email with instructions to use your 4BIZapp® assigned toll free number for calling and texting you, and your 4BIZapp® email address (i.e. janesmith@4bizapp.com) for the transaction. This way, your clients just dial your assigned toll free number direct and are instantly connected to you for calls relating to their transaction. You can select up to 3 phone numbers (i.e. these can be yours, staff or team) that can include your 4BIZapp® VM, so they are routed accordingly when they call you. They also use the same number for transaction related text messages. Naturally they would use your assigned email for email transaciton communications. This allows you to use all your other existing phone numbers for prospecting and day to day operations, where these 4BIZapp® call, text & email credentials are only used and provided for transaction communicaitons.

Your clients are generally only involved in one transaction at a time with one service provider, so linking their communications to transactions is simplified. Unlike service providers who are typically linked to a multitude of transactions. Thus, by using the 4BIZapp® to initiate calls and send texts, they are always linked to the correct transaction. Additionally, these functions just emulate the apps you normally use to make calls and texts, so there is no difference, inconvenience or any time lost. In fact time is saved by perforiming communicaitons from one location, as opposed to jumping from on app or device to another.

The 4BIZapp® employs a callback scenario, like when you use your phone to connect a conference call, where you first dial and connect a contact, then dial and connect another. Same with the app. It first calls you, it is the system. After you answer, it then dials your contact and merges the calls for recording. This allows you to call any phone numbers you want to use to call yourself, and any of your contacts phone numbers. So you aren't actually ever talking through the app, rather the phones normal protocol, and this can include mobile, satellite, and landlines.

You have a choice and should try both to see what works better for your workflow. That said, you can just reply back to emails in the transaction chain and forward emails from your favorite email app, as the 4BIZapp® issues these initial chain emails when you link contacts and contact groups to a transaciton. You can also use the 4BIZapp®, and may prefer to do so, as it works in the following ways. If you create a new email or reply from the 4BIZapp® it codes the email for transaction routing and then opens your favorite email app's editor. If you forward an email from the 4BIZapp®, you simply add the message from inside the 4BIZapp®, and then it emails it. Many prefer using the 4BIZapp® to initiate emails due to the ease of selecting the transaction recipients to email. You can also cc documents from e-signing and transaction management software to your 4BIZapp® email address so they are properly added to the corresponding transaction. For best results, make sure to add the subject line you have in other transaction related emails that contains the address, etc of the correct transaction. This will become apparent when you use the 4BIZapp®, where the transaction's subject is appended to all emails with the correct transaciton information. You also experience this with title docs where a file number is typicaly assigned, whereas the 4BIZapp® uses the property address for a routing match so you can more easily identify your own transactions.

Yes. Unlimited staff and team can be added to your one subscription.

Yes. You can set access privileges to each individual and vary their access levels in the application, including setting what copies of the various communicaitons get delivered to them.

You are not charged for inactive transactions. Each subscription includes an ample amount of storage space. If you did exceed your storage, upgrading your subscription increases storage capacity.

An application might mean different things these days to different people. 4BIZapp® is an app that runs in a browser, or could be considered a browser app, yet it also checks off all the SaaS checkboxes, so it is SaaS which runs as a browser app. Yes, both apps and SaaS (typically browser apps) run in a browser application, where you typically just login. Think of a browser app as a popular email application on the web. Many of these could be considered SaaS if you subscribe to gain better features, as most are free upfront. On a mobile device, applications need to be downloaded and installed like traditional apps for your pc / laptop that require intallation. 4BIZapp® runs in a browser so their is no need to download, install or update anything. The industry use to say browser app alone, but the new fancy name is SaaS (software as a service), to further delineate between the minor differences of web apps, browser apps, mobile apps and traditional apps, where traditional apps now need additional differeniation for those that migrated to become browser apps. 4BIZapp® is both a browser app and ticks all the SaaS checkboxes, however on a mobile device, you run it through your browser so you do not have to download, install or ever update. It may be offered in other iterations as well in the future.
