If you need someone who knows their way around a house flip and a jam-packed calendar, look no further than Mark Hewitt, a Texas-based real estate pro and founder of the Hewitt Group who’s been flipping homes and solving problems for over a decade.
Mark runs a real estate team that handles everything from traditional home buying to off-market properties, but when it came to managing his growing business—and the scheduling chaos that came with it—he needed a little extra help. That’s where YouCanBookMe came in.
“We started using YouCanBookMe for our recruiting efforts, basically for bringing people in, interviewing them,” Mark explains. “The biggest challenge for me was the manpower it took to get people scheduled, especially when they canceled or rescheduled. We were looking for a solution where they could book it themselves, reschedule themselves, get reminders. It took a whole load off of us.”
Simple, seamless time-savings
Mark’s been in the real estate game for over 10 years, but it’s his constant drive to create opportunities that keeps him at the top of his game. As his business expanded, Mark noticed he was missing out on opportunities because his team was bogged down by manual scheduling tasks. Whether it was recruiting new talent or meeting clients, the constant back-and-forth of scheduling was eating up too much time.
That's when YouCanBookMe's real estate scheduling app stepped in to solve the problem. With YouCanBookMe automating his scheduling process, Mark’s team could focus on what they do best—connecting with clients and closing deals.
"YouCanBookMe has been a huge help for our recruiting efforts. Now, candidates can book interviews themselves, reschedule if needed, and get reminders automatically. It’s freed up so much of our time," says Mark.
A tech stack for success
In addition to YouCanBookMe, Mark’s carefully chosen tools help him keep operations running smoothly:- Mojo Dialer for phone outreach
- Commissions Inc. as his CRM
- Launch Control for texting
These tools help Mark’s team stays efficient and connected, letting them focus on growing the business and building client relationships.
“The reason why we chose YouCanBookMe... the pricing was good, what we needed to use it for was good, and it’s been very user-friendly in my opinion, and has worked very well for our business,” Mark shares.
Automated reminders that keep things moving
Mark especially loves the reminders and notifications that YouCanBookMe sends out to his clients and recruits. “We rely on the texting, we rely on the notifications. As far as sending out the email and texting and reminders, we’ve got our address and directions on how to get here... those are the features that we're mainly using with it.”
It’s not just for recruiting. Mark uses YouCanBookMe for follow-ups, like shadow interviews. “They automatically get a link from us after they’ve attended, allowing them to rebook to come back on specific days or times that we offer,” he says.
Three years of seamless scheduling
In a world where market trends shift constantly, Mark knows that consistency is key. And that’s why he’s been using YouCanBookMe for over three years—because it’s a tool that just works.
“I haven’t had any issues whatsoever... it’s worked well for us. That’s why it’s been over three years.”
For Mark, YouCanBookMe has taken the stress out of scheduling, letting him focus on what matters—finding the next big property deal or connecting with clients. “It took a whole load off of us... it's worked very seamlessly.”
