With a growing collection of new homes across the UK, as well as an array of lifestyle events, charity work, and insights, they needed a new website to communicate it.

Mega 3 Housing needed to find a portal for promoting their properties, to satisfy all target audiences throughout the Malaysian market. Their former WordPress-based website did not serve their needs, it generated too many unclassified leads that were hard for salesmen to grasp. Now, the website works with 14 contact groups created, based on information from contact forms and the calculator. Two of these groups are immediately sent to Salesforce, assigned as hot leads, and subsequently contacted by Mega 3 Housing salesmen. To keep visitors attention, the website heavily utilizes marketing automation—customers are informed, for example, on new blog-posts, locations, updates on building progress, etc.
