1. Why partnerships are a growth opportunity

Realtors and property managers talk to people right before they move. Partnering with them means:

  • ✔️ A direct line to motivated leads
  • ✔️ Warm introductions that build trust
  • ✔️ Recurring business (especially from property managers)
“Realtors don’t just sell homes, they hand you clients ready to book.”

2. What realtors & property managers want

Before you ask for leads, understand what they value:

  • ✔️ Reliable service (they don't want complaints tied to their referral)
  • ✔️ Fast communication
  • ✔️ Discounts or perks for their clients
  • ✔️ A partnership that makes them look good
💡 Pro tip: Focus on how you make their job easier, not just what you want from them.

3. Where to find the right partners

Start local. Great places to connect include:

  • ✔️ Real estate networking events
  • ✔️ Local property management companies
  • ✔️ Chamber of commerce mixers
  • ✔️ Online communities for landlords or agents
  • ✔️ Co‑working spaces for small brokers

Use LinkedIn to research decision‑makers and send friendly, non‑pushy connection requests.

4. How to pitch your moving company

Here’s a simple formula:

  • ✔️ Introduce yourself and what you do
  • ✔️ Highlight shared goals (helping clients move smoothly)
  • ✔️ Offer something valuable (discount, dedicated rep, exclusive deal)
  • ✔️ Make it easy to refer you (flyers, links, QR codes, CRM auto‑referral forms)
“We’d love to give your clients a smooth moving experience and make you look like a hero.”

5. Maintaining strong relationships

The first move is just the beginning. To keep the partnership going:

  • ✔️ Send thank‑you notes or small gifts for referrals
  • ✔️ Offer exclusive updates or perks
  • ✔️ Share positive feedback from mutual clients
  • ✔️ Invite them to events or local initiatives
💡 Bonus: Track who’s referring most often, and give them VIP status.

6. Bonus: How CRMs help manage partnerships

A good CRM (like Best Movers CRM!) helps you:

  • ✔️ Track referral sources
  • ✔️ Automate follow‑ups and thank‑yous
  • ✔️ Create referral links and promo codes
  • ✔️ Segment your B2B contacts separately
“You can’t grow what you don’t track, your CRM keeps your partnerships organized.”
