TotalMove Implements CRM Platform to Support its Mortgage Lender Partners in Bridging the Gap Between Pre-Qualification and Closing

June 1, 2006

Shelton, Connecticut - June 1, 2006 - TotalMove, Inc. (www.TotalMove.com), a national consumer real estate and moving services company, has launched its new proprietary Customer Relationship Management (CRM) system. TotalMove has upgraded its state-of-the-art CRM technology to improve on its already strong contact management processes in order to better nurture and help close consumers who have been pre-qualified for mortgage loans with lenders that are part of TotalMove’s Mortgage Partner Program™.

TotalMove’s Mortgage Partner Program is designed specifically to help mortgage lenders improve their purchase money mortgage lead conversion. On behalf of its lender partners, TotalMove engages consumers throughout the real estate purchase process, bridging the time gap between pre-qualification and closing. The company provides consumers with move planning assistance, real estate agent selection, and access to insurance and other services all focused around the real estate transaction.

Tom Soltis, recently appointed Vice President of Operations, said their new CRM system was specifically designed to enable TotalMove’s fast-growing national call center to enhance its lead nurturing and conversion capabilities for its lender partners. “Our new CRM system will significantly streamline our processes, giving our coordinators more time to focus on consumer needs,” explained Soltis. “The robust technology also ensures that we’re properly converting the highly-qualified prospects from our lender partners based on careful scheduling of follow up activities and close tracking of individual consumer needs and interests.”

Soltis adds, “There can typically be a long period of time between pre-qualification and closing. The TotalMove Mortgage Partner program was developed to help our lender partners stay in touch with their leads during the entire real estate purchase process so the borrower returns to close their loan rather than moving on to another lender.”

The internal development of the CRM system is only the most recent enhancement TotalMove has made to its call center operation. It has also increased its hours of operation, expanded its real estate broker network, added multi-lingual support, and appointed Soltis to oversee the department.

“Word of TotalMove’s value has spread quickly. The increase in demand for our services has enabled us to add more weekend and evening call center support for our customers—when they desire it most,” Soltis said. “We’re also seeing significant demand for our services from the Hispanic market, which we anticipate will continue to grow.”

TotalMove President Kevin Buckthorpe expressed his confidence in the call center expansion and its new leadership, “As the heart of our operations, our call center must be managed by an extremely experienced, strategic executive. We selected Tom Soltis for this position based on his 20 years of experience in managing and growing call centers, as well as his keen understanding of how process and technology can work together to make a call center more effective and more efficient.”

Mortgage lenders or brokers interested in learning more about TotalMove’s Mortgage Partner Program and how TotalMove can help convert purchase leads to closed loans should call Peter Buttrick, National Sales Director, at 1-802-459-9934.
