CRM pipeline: every lead tracked from first call to won job
Read the transcript

Every lead gets a card. Every card keeps moving. Every call, form and text becomes a lead card. Nothing lives on a sticky note or in someone's head. Cards move across clear stages. New, Contacted, Estimate booked, Estimate sent, then Won or Lost. Follow-ups go out on day 1, 3 and 7. Automatic texts and emails, so quotes do not go cold. Day 1, check-in text sent. Day 3, follow-up email sent. Day 7, last check-in text sent. Customer replied. Every quote ends in Won or Lost. Won jobs move to the schedule. Lost ones get a reason, so you can learn from them. Won: added to the schedule. Lost reason: went with another quote. The whole pipeline on one screen. See what is new, what is booked and what is waiting, at a glance.

Why work with MAJ

What MAJ changes for a Mason home builder

Your problem

Inquiries nobody owns

A Mason form gets forwarded, then forgotten, and the family hears back a week later. On a contract this size, that delay can hand the build to another builder.

What we build

A CRM that assigns, replies and follows up

Every call and form lands in the CRM with its source and an owner, gets an instant reply with a booking link, and moves into follow-up if the buyer is early. Ads and pages cover Mason and Deerfield Township by name.

  • One system instead of separate vendors

    The ads, pages, video and CRM are set up by one team, so an inquiry does not fall between an agency and a software company.

  • Founder-led, with a team behind it

    Manny reviews strategy and results himself; editors, ad account managers and automation do the daily work.

  • A free written audit first

    We check your current ads, Business Profile and follow-up against the Mason checklist on this page before you change anything.

Where Mason builder marketing goes wrong

Campaigns built on one name
Mason split from Deerfield Township in 1997. A campaign built on one name can miss buyers who search with the other, so we build keyword lists for both and keep the permit details straight on each page.
Galleries without a story
Photos of a finished kitchen tell a Mason buyer nothing about how you handled the foundation, the schedule or the change order that came up in month four.

How building in Mason works, and why it matters for marketing

  • Permits run through a city department and portal

    The City of Mason Engineering and Building Department administers most permits, including residential building and electric permits, and applications go through the city's online Permit Portal. A process page that walks buyers through those steps shows you have done it before.

  • Zoning runs through certificates and boards

    Zoning in Mason runs through Zoning Certificate applications, the Planning Commission and the Zoning Board of Appeals. If a buyer's plan needs a variance, they should hear it from you early.

  • Mason treats its own wastewater

    The city runs its own sanitary sewer system and treats all wastewater at the Mason Water Reclamation Plant, while Greater Cincinnati Water Works supplies the water. Sewer questions for a new Mason home go to the City of Mason.

  • A county form in the permit packet

    Mason's permit forms include a Warren County Health Department water service line application alongside city permits. Builders who explain that paperwork plainly look organized to a first-time custom buyer.

Routing a Mason inquiry to the right person

For a builder, the estimate is a design meeting or a lot visit. This video shows a new request sorted by job type and area and sent to the right person, who sets a time to talk, so a Mason family with a lot ready is not waiting behind a remodel question.

  • Sort by build on your lot, buy a lot, or teardown
  • Route by community and the price range you set
  • A set time to talk instead of phone tag
Estimate routing: every request to the right estimator
Read the transcript

Every request, to the right person, the first time. A new request comes in. A call, form or text, with the job type and ZIP code attached. Request form: Job type, Replacement. ZIP code, 45230. Best time, weekday mornings. It gets sorted by job type and service area. Automatically, in seconds, before anyone has to touch it. Tags added: Replacement, East area, Estimate. Assigned to the right estimator or crew. No forwarding, no guessing, no sticky notes on the office desk. Assigned to Estimator 1, replacements, East area. With a time booked and the details attached. The homeowner picks an opening that fits that estimator's day. Booked: Wednesday, 1:30 PM. Job details attached. The homeowner gets a confirmation. Then a reminder before the visit. Nobody plays phone tag. Text: You're booked! Your estimate is Wednesday at 1:30 PM. Reminder text the day before: Your estimator arrives tomorrow at 1:30 PM. The office stops being the bottleneck. Requests keep moving, even on your busiest days. Book a call with us at majmarketingco.com.

Mason home builder marketing questions

Who issues building permits for a new home in Mason?

The City of Mason Engineering and Building Department administers most permits in the city, including residential building permits, and applications are completed through the city's online Permit Portal. The department's number is 513.229.8520.

Should a Mason builder's ads cover Deerfield Township too?

Usually, with separate pages. Mason split from Deerfield Township in 1997, so buyers may use either name. Separate ad groups and pages let you reach buyers in both while keeping each page accurate about where the lot sits and which office it answers to.

How do you measure home builder marketing?

By design meetings booked, traced to their source, with signed contracts connected where your systems allow. The monthly report shows cost per design meeting by channel, how many early leads moved forward, and where to put your budget next.

Can you work with the website and CRM we already have?

Often, yes. The free audit looks at what you already have: site, Google Business Profile, ads, CRM and how inquiries get answered. We keep what works and rebuild only the pieces that are losing inquiries.

How do reviews work for a builder who finishes a handful of homes a year?

Ask at the key moments: the final walkthrough, the closing and after the first months in the home. BrightLocal's 2026 survey reports that 97% of consumers read reviews for local businesses and 71% use Google to read them. We set up the ask, the reminder and the reply.
