Set Schedule CEO Roy Dekel to Bring More Useful Tools to Real Estate Agents in 2018 SetSchedule CEO Roy Dekel intends to double the company’s growth, unveil new tools for practice management and lead generation, and give back to more charitable organizations in 2018. Mr. Dekel said that SetSchedule will focus on improving user experience this year, with a mobile app to be released in the spring, as well as new practice management tools and a CRM system to help real estate professionals to find even more qualified leads. Meanwhile, the SetSchedule Cares Foundation will increase its outreach and fundraising efforts to benefit tech start-ups and charity organizations.
“We have already revolutionized the way real estate agents find new leads and prospects, so 2018 will focus on making it easier for them to close those sales,” Mr. Dekel said. “Features like the ability to search addresses and score the probability of those properties hitting the market will make it easier for real estate agents to identify new opportunities on-demand.” With the new features improving user experience for existing members as well as attracting new subscribers, Mr. Dekel aims to double SetSchedule’s membership by the end of 2018, from 2017’s record-setting growth of 5,700 new agents year-over-year. The philanthropic arm of SetSchedule, SetSchedule Cares, will host at least three events to raise money for partner organizations like the American Technion Society (ATS), the Technion-Israel Institute of Technology, the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation and more. Since its founding in 2015, SetSchedule has managed to connect a notoriously fickle and fragmented industry together. SetSchedule offered over 17,400 leads to real estate agents over the course of 2017, and developed new tools such as the SetValue home value calculator. By connecting top tier agents with vetted homeowners and investors actively looking to buy and sell, SetSchedule successfully reduces the time and money traditionally spent on tracking down potential leads and marketing.
