When Approval Management Meets Real Estate Prospecting
Let's cut through the BS: Real estate teams waste 12 hours a week chasing signatures and verifying data. Mojo keeps your pipeline moving with CRM and dialer tools. ApproveThis stops decision bottlenecks cold with automated approvals. Together? You get deals closed faster without the endless "Did you review that?" emails.
Why This Integration Doesn't Suck
Most "integrations" just shuffle data between apps. This one actually fixes three specific problems for 50-5,000 person real estate teams:
- No more orphaned contacts: New leads get approval oversight before hitting your CRM
- Zero calendar chicken: Approval deadlines sync automatically with Mojo activities
Bonus: Approvers don't need Mojo licenses. Perfect for external partners reviewing contracts or corporate teams overseeing multiple brokerages.
Actual Use Cases That Don't Feel Like Corporate Fluff
1. Auto-Create Approved Leads in Mojo
The problem: Junior agents adding unvetted leads that waste your top producers' time.
How it works: New lead form submission → Approval workflow checking budget/needs → Auto-create Mojo contact only if approved.
Real example: A 200-agent brokerage reduced junk leads by 68% by requiring team lead approval on all Zillow imports.
2. Change Requests That Don't Get Lost in Slack
The problem: Critical client updates (like financing falls through) buried in random emails.
How it works: Mojo contact update → Triggers approval request → Only updates CRM after manager sign-off.
Pro move: Use ApproveThis' calculated fields to auto-flag changes requiring legal review (e.g., contract price adjustments over 5%).
3. Approval Deadlines That Actually Matter
The problem: "Urgent" commission approval requests that mysteriously miss contract deadlines.
How it works: New approval request in ApproveThis → Auto-schedules follow-up activity in Mojo → Syncs to agent calendars with escalation rules.
Cool factor: ApproveThis' vacation delegation automatically reassigns approvals if your broker is at closing.
Setup That Takes Less Time Than a Coffee Run
1. Connect via Zapier - No dev skills needed
2. Map Mojo contact fields to ApproveThis templates
3. Set thresholds (example: auto-approve lead additions under $1M budget)
4. Test with one agent team before rolling out
Pro tip: Use ApproveThis' email approvals so external partners (title companies, lenders) can review without Mojo access.
Who Actually Benefits?
Brokerage Managers
Kill two headaches at once: Get visibility into which lead sources actually convert post-approval, and stop playing calendar Tetris with contract reviews.
Corporate Real Estate Teams
Enforce portfolio-wide standards (like minimum NOI thresholds) across multiple Mojo instances without needing God-mode access to every CRM.
Commercial Real Estate Pros
Auto-escalate complex deals requiring legal/finance review before they clog up your Mojo pipeline.
But Wait - There's Actual ROI
A Midwest residential firm using both tools saw:
- 23% faster offer approvals (from 41 hrs to 31 hrs avg)
- 15% fewer compliance issues on contract changes
- 9 hours/week less spent on approval status meetings
Key detail: They used ApproveThis' conditional thresholds to auto-approve routine NDA sign-offs while flagging unusual commission splits.
Why This Beats "Just Using Mojo's Notes Field"
Let's be real - you've tried tracking approvals in CRM notes or spreadsheets. It fails because:
- No audit trail when deals go south
- Zero visibility into bottlenecks
- External partners can't access your CRM
ApproveThis adds structure without the bureaucracy. Example: A REIT uses approval groups so acquisitions over $20M require sequential sign-off from regional → corporate → legal teams - all tracked in one place.
No, Really - When Should You Not Use This?
If your team has one agent doing three deals a year? Overkill. But for any real estate business where:
- Multiple people touch each deal
- Compliance actually matters (hello, TRID rules)
- You hate losing deals to slow response times
...this pays for itself in two months.
How to Not Screw This Up
Do:
- Start with one process (like offer approvals)
- Use email approvals for external partners
- Set threshold rules to avoid micromanaging
Don't:
- Try to automate every approval day one
- Forget to sync Mojo custom fields
- Skip setting up vacation delegates
Bottom Line for Real Estate Teams
Mojo handles the hustle - ApproveThis handles the handshakes. Together, they stop these scenarios:
- "The lender approved that rate? When?!"
- "Why is there a $2M offer in Mojo we never reviewed?"
- "Whose turn is it to approve the addendum?"
It's not about adding more process. It's about closing deals faster without the chaos.
