Automatically converting Facebook leads into appointments

A real estate agency was paying for Facebook ads but losing leads due to slow follow-up. With a no-code automation, every new lead is now contacted within 5 minutes.

The challenge

The real estate agency invested in Facebook advertising to reach potential buyers and sellers. Interested parties filled in the Facebook Lead Form, but then things went wrong: data had to be manually transferred, and due to busy schedules it sometimes took a day or more before someone was called back. Leads that drop off so quickly represent expensive missed opportunities.

The solution

We connected Facebook Lead Ads directly to a Make.com workflow. As soon as someone fills in the form, the automation processes the data immediately: the lead receives a personalised email or WhatsApp message within 5 minutes, and the agent receives a notification with the contact details. A smart follow-up sequence then keeps the lead engaged until an appointment is made.

How it works

The automation flow

01

Lead via Facebook ad

A potential buyer or seller fills in the Facebook Lead Form — name, phone number and interest.

02

Automatic connection

Make.com captures the lead immediately via the Facebook Leads API, with no manual export or copying.

03

AI analysis

The AI evaluates the interest (buyer or seller, property type, region) and personalises the response.

04

Automatic message within 5 minutes

The lead receives a personalised email or WhatsApp with relevant information. The agent gets a notification.

05

Follow-up sequence

Over 7 days, 3 follow-up messages are automatically sent if no contact has been made.

06

Schedule appointment

Upon a positive response, an appointment is automatically scheduled in the agent's calendar.

07

CRM update

All interactions are automatically logged in the CRM system without manual data entry.
