Lead Generation Funnel
Every piece of content you publish should have one job: move someone closer to contacting you. Here's how your funnel works:
AWARENESS — They find you
How: Google search finds your blog → TikTok/Reel goes viral → Facebook post gets shared → Google Business shows up in map search
Your content does this automatically once published.
INTEREST — They engage with you
How: They click to your website → read your blog → follow you on social → watch your Facebook Live
Hook them: Strong content, educational tone, no hard selling yet.
CONSIDERATION — They trust you
How: They DM you on Messenger/Viber → Ask for your payment computation guide → Download your free PDF → Comment on multiple posts
Respond to every single person within 2 hours.
INTENT — They're ready to inquire
How: They fill the form on teamcolossians.com → Message you directly about a specific property → Ask for a viewing schedule
This is a HOT LEAD. Call within 30 minutes.
CONVERSION — They buy
How: Personal consultation → property viewing (physical or virtual) → payment computation → reservation
Speed and personal connection win at this stage.
Facebook Ads Strategy (Days 35–60)
Ad Campaign 1 — Lead Generation (Most Important)
Objective
Lead Generation (Facebook's built-in lead form)
Headline
"Interested in DMCI Homes? Get a Free Property Computation from an Accredited Agent"
Target Audience
Philippines, Age 25–55, Interests: DMCI Homes, Real Estate Philippines, Home Ownership, OFW
Form Fields

Ad Campaign 2 — Traffic to Blog
Run a ₱200/day traffic ad pointing to your best-performing blog article. Headline: "I'm a DMCI Agent. Here's Everything I Tell My Buyers Before They Sign Anything." This builds trust before the sales ask.
Ad Campaign 3 — Retargeting (Day 50+)
Install the Facebook Pixel on your website (requires adding one line of code to teamcolossians.com). Then run ads specifically to people who visited your website but didn't inquire. Headline: "Still thinking about that DMCI condo? Let's talk — no pressure, just facts."

1. Deploy the website and test the inquiry form
Go to teamcolossians.com on your phone. Fill the consultation form with your own info. Confirm you receive the email at erik.dmcihomes@gmail.com. This is the most critical thing — if the form doesn't work, you're losing every lead.

3. Join 5 active Facebook OFW real estate groups
Search: "OFW real estate Philippines", "DMCI properties buyers group", "Manila condo for sale". Join them. Observe for 3 days. Then post your introduction and a helpful article — never just a sales post.
4. Create a Canva template set
Make 4 Canva templates: (1) Property showcase, (2) Educational tip, (3) Client quote/testimonial, (4) Blog promo. Use your website's gold + dark colors. Having templates means you can create a post in 5 minutes, not 45.
5. Write your first Facebook post and publish it today
Announce yourself. Something simple: "I'm Erik — your DMCI agent. My website teamcolossians.com now has all available DMCI properties with pricing. Browse free, no pressure." Pin this post to the top of your page.
