Business Information for A2P Approval (So You Can Text)

The information below will not be posted on your website. We need this information to ensure that your tracking, texting, and phone number are correctly set up and forwarded to your desired location, as well as to get approved for A2P Compliance. Without this information, we will not be able to get your phone number approved for texting.

To optimize your website’s functionality and compliance, we need specific details to set up various tracking and communication features. A2P (Application-to-Person) Compliance is a regulation that ensures your text messages are delivered efficiently and legally. Providing the necessary information allows us to configure your phone number to meet these compliance standards, ensuring smooth operation and communication with your clients.

Name and Look & Feel

This part of the form is designed to gather key details about your business, branding preferences, and online presence. Providing this information will enable us to build a website that truly reflects your brand and attracts the right clients.

• Please read the tips in green under each respective field for expert advice.
     

• If you are unsure about any section or prefer not to provide certain details right now, feel free to leave it blank. We will follow up with you after reviewing your answers to discuss further and assist with any remaining questions.

(1) Choosing the right name for your custom home building business is crucial for attracting clients. We recommend using your personal name—either first or last—in your business name. Custom home clients prefer a personal touch and typically don't want a typical spec builder or a large company handling their custom home. Names like "Reagan Homes" convey a personal connection and trustworthiness.

• Personal Connection: A study by the Harvard Business Review found that clients are more likely to trust and engage with businesses that present a personal touch. Using your name helps build this trust.

• Brand Recall: Research from Inc.com shows that personalized marketing increases brand recall and customer loyalty.

• Specificity: Including the word "Homes" signifies residential construction, which differentiates your business from commercial construction firms. This clarity helps attract the right clients.

• First/Last Name Homes: e.g., Reagan Homes

• First/Last Name Custom Homes: e.g., Reagan Custom Homes

• First/Last Name Design & Build: e.g., Reagan Design & Build

• First/Last Name Builders: e.g., Reagan Builders

Ensure that your business name matches your domain name for consistency. Consistency is vital for branding and client recognition. If your desired name with "Homes" is already taken as a domain, consider the alternatives listed above.

• Keep It Simple: A study by the University of California found that simple and straightforward names are easier for clients to remember.

• Think Long-Term: Your business name should be future-proof and flexible enough to grow with your business.

• Don't overthink: Go with your gut instinct. If you want additional help figuring out the name, put "help" below.

(2)We can help you figure out what name is best. Typically, we recommend names like - ReaganHomes.com, ReaganDesignBuild.com, ReaganDesignAndBuild.com or ReaganCustomHomes.com.

If your existing domain name is something like ReaganConstruction.com or ReaganRemodeling or something similar we do NOT recommend using this name because the website for your custom homes and land development should scream "I am a custom home builder." This is also why we suggest having a separate site dedicated to your custom homes division if you offer other services.

(3)Linking or embedding your social media profiles on your website increases engagement and provides additional ways for potential clients to connect with you. Including social media links boosts your online presence and improves communication with your audience. Please specify if you prefer just an icon link in the footer, embedding a feed within the website that updates automatically, or both.

Email & Calendar Details

(5) To ensure smooth scheduling and integration with our CRM, your email setup is crucial. We require either Outlook365 or G-Suite, as well as Zoom for meetings. Real-time scheduling of initial phone or Zoom calls is essential for potential custom home clients.

• Specify the hours you want to allow potential clients to schedule initial calls.

• We recommend availability outside normal business hours, including weekends, to accommodate working clients. Suggested hours are:

  • Monday to Thursday: 8 am to 7 pm

  • Friday to Sunday: 8 am to 2 pm
