We might drill it down from 5 different angles as follow:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (1)&nbsp;<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A good online platform should trace the number of enquiries received by each agent, the overall conversion rate and that of each client. An efficient platform would have a minimum conversion rate of 5%, while <strong>Spacious has an average of 7% to 22% conversion rate<\/strong> &#8211; much higher than the average 1% in the industry.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(2) A normal company would usually spend its digital marketing budget on increasing website traffic &#8211; so that the company could have higher bargaining power in making related revenues. On the contrary, Spacious <strong>spends the marketing budget FOR agents and landlords<\/strong> &#8211; we mainly target at <strong>increasing enquiries<\/strong>.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Let\u2019s imagine if you have paid $1,000 to a platform. Which one would you choose &#8211; a platform which spends your $1,000 on overall traffic of the site, or the one which spends your $1,000 on increasing your number of enquiries?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(3) During home-searching, both agents and buyers might encounter some problems. A good platform should have <strong>a team of professional customer services officers<\/strong> to assist clients &#8211; and more importantly, on a 24\/7 basis.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(4) When it comes to an online platform, one can hardly avoid any technical issues. Some of our competitors actually outsourced their technical teams to overseas offices. There is a Chinese idiom &#8211; \u201cWater afar off quenches not fire\u201d &#8211; so better not expect too much from those technicians from another side of the Earth! Instead, Spacious has <strong>a team of technicians based in Hong Kong<\/strong> and they are always ready to help clients with any technical problems.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(5) More and more home buyers use Internet as a source of information during the house-hunting process. Spacious provides users a mobile app and website with mobile optimized interface, which is essential for the current digital era \u2013 that buyers could <strong>search for ideal listings anytime, anywhere<\/strong> using their mobile devices, and even <strong>contact the sellers with in-app messenger<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.spacious.hk\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/handshake-2056023_1280.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-4814 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.spacious.hk\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/handshake-2056023_1280-595x396.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"595\" height=\"396\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.spacious.hk\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/handshake-2056023_1280-595x396.jpg 595w, https:\/\/www.spacious.hk\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/handshake-2056023_1280-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.spacious.hk\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/handshake-2056023_1280-960x638.jpg 960w, https:\/\/www.spacious.hk\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/handshake-2056023_1280-30x20.jpg 30w, https:\/\/www.spacious.hk\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/handshake-2056023_1280-696x463.jpg 696w, https:\/\/www.spacious.hk\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/handshake-2056023_1280-1068x710.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/www.spacious.hk\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/handshake-2056023_1280-632x420.jpg 632w, https:\/\/www.spacious.hk\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/handshake-2056023_1280.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 595px) 100vw, 595px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Spacious platform provides plenty of data analysis, news and blog articles on Hong Kong property market, helping you make the best investment decision. It also has a easy-to-use mobile app. Agents and buyers can reach each other through the app, and the transaction process can thus be sped up. Furthermore, Spacious has a report system, which allows users to report fraudulent or problematic listings. This prevents fake listings and agents with unsatisfied service from wasting buyers\u2019 home searching time.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you would like to triple your enquiries, please do not hesitate to contact us at 3460 4713 or <\/span><a href=\"mailto:business@spacious.hk\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">business@spacious.hk<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> for more details.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Recently, an agent told me that his company is getting more enquiries from Spacious than the other platforms in Hong Kong.
