Which Ad Made Your Phone Call Ring? A Simple Way to Track Property Enquiries

Table of Contents

Real estate agencies spend lakhs running ads on Facebook, Instagram, MagicBricks, and even hoardings across the city. 

These ads do generate calls, but there’s one major challenge: most agencies can’t track which ad or campaign is actually bringing in serious buyers.

This matters because 75.4% of ad clickers in real estate convert over the phone, making calls your most valuable leads.

But without clarity on which ad triggered each call, you’re left guessing where to allocate your budget, risking money on channels that may not deliver the right customers.

What if you could change that? With Callyzer, you can track every call back to the ad or campaign that made your phone ring. 

In this blog, we’ll show you how to trace your property enquiries seamlessly so you can invest your marketing budget wisely and close more deals with confidence.

The Real Problem: Ad Spend with No Attribution

Real estate marketing today is everywhere: online portals, Instagram reels, paid search, newspaper classifieds, WhatsApp forwards, and more. But despite this digital explosion, the most common CTA is still the humble phone call.

And that’s where most of your insights get lost.

Because when someone calls, you don’t know if it was the carousel ad on Instagram or your prime spot on MagicBricks that got them there.

Most real estate agent try to “guess” the source or worse, ask the caller (who usually forgets or gives vague answers).

But here’s the truth: if you can’t track which ad drove the call, you can’t measure ROI.

You end up treating all leads equally, when in fact, only a few sources are doing the heavy lifting.

And that’s a recipe for wasted budget, poor decisions and missed opportunities.

Old-School Methods Don’t Work Anymore

When real estate agents ask, “Where did you get our number?”

It’s the classic fallback in real estate, but let’s face it: self-reported attribution doesn’t work.

Buyers often say “MagicBricks,” “online,” or “a friend shared,” leaving your team guessing which ad or listing actually triggered the call.

Using a single phone number across MagicBricks, Instagram, Google, and hoardings might feel operationally convenient, but it erases your ability to:

  • Identify which channel drives actual site visits
  • Measure ROI on premium listings or Instagram campaigns
  • Optimize spends across offline and digital

In real estate, where lead quality and CPL (Cost Per Lead) matter deeply, manual attribution isn’t just outdated, it quietly reduces your marketing efficiency.

If you want your campaigns to convert, you need automated call attribution, not guesswork.

Smart Fix: Use Different Numbers per Channel

A practical way to fix attribution gaps is to use dedicated phone numbers for each marketing channel as part of your call tracking strategy.

Assign a unique number to MagicBricks, Instagram, Google Ads, hoardings, and newspaper listings so every enquiry call is directly tied to its source.

For Instance,

  • MagicBricks → 987xxxx101
  • Instagram → 987xxxx102

This eliminates guesswork, letting you track which channels generate real leads, measure true CPL(Cost Per Lead), and optimize budgets confidently.

What You Learn From This Setup

Once you start tracking calls by campaign source, your team shifts from assumption-based marketing to data-backed decisions rooted in real enquiries.

Here’s how in-depth call management for property enquiries transforms your strategy:

1. Channel Performance Clarity

On MagicBricks, you received 12 calls this month with an average duration of 40 seconds, but only one converted to a site visit.

Insight: While call volume is high, lead quality is low, indicating your listings may be attracting the wrong audience. It may be time to refine your content strategy or test alternative portals.

2. High-Intent Hidden Opportunities

Your Instagram Ads generated just 5 calls in two weeks, averaging 2.5 minutes per call, with 3 prospects requesting pricing and scheduling site visits.

Insight: Although the volume is lower, lead quality is high. Increasing spend on Instagram while testing video walkthrough creatives could help scale results.

3. Identifying Wasted Offline Spend

Your hoarding near Andheri East Flyover costs ₹30,000 per month but generated zero calls in four weeks.

Insight: The campaign is not delivering traction. You can pause this spend and redirect the budget to high-performing digital channels.

4. Optimal Timing for Ad Delivery

Callyzer data shows most high-intent calls occur between 10:30 AM and 1:00 PM on Tuesdays and Saturdays.

Insight: You can adjust ad delivery schedules around these peak hours to maximize conversions.

5. Lead Quality by Channel

Your Google Ads drove 15 calls, with 6 ending within 30 seconds, while Facebook Lead Gen delivered 9 calls with 5 resulting in strong follow-ups.

Insight: Google Ads may be driving accidental or low-quality leads, whereas Facebook is generating more deliberate, high-intent prospects. You can adjust your targeting and retargeting strategies accordingly.

With Callyzer, you are not merely tracking the number of calls; you are gaining complete visibility into who is calling, when, from where, and with what intent. This gives you a 360° view of campaign performance, lead quality, and your team’s responsiveness.
