An enquiry that arrived when you opened this page would already be answered, with times offered and the agent in copy.

01The reply

This is what your buyer reads, one minute after writing.

She wrote in Dutch, so Podium answered in Dutch. It knew which apartment she meant from the reference in her mail, and it offered three times that were actually free.

Re: Lange Nieuwstraat 41 — uw vraag over een bezoek

Sofie Peeters, Kantoor Haerens

Goeiedag mevrouw De Smet,

Bedankt voor uw vraag over het appartement in de Lange Nieuwstraat 41 in Antwerpen. Het is nog vrij te bezoeken. Ik stel u graag drie momenten voor:

do 12 feb 17:30za 14 feb 10:30di 17 feb 18:00

Kies gerust wat u past, dan staat het bezoek meteen in mijn agenda. Past geen van de drie? Antwoord op deze mail en ik stel andere momenten voor.

Tot binnenkort,
Sofie Peeters — Kantoor Haerens

The buyer clicks a time. The agent gets a confirmed appointment instead of a task.

02The afternoon that decides it

The same enquiry, on two different Tuesdays.

You already paid the portal for this lead. What happens next is decided in the first few minutes, and it is usually decided while you are somewhere else.

Today, without Podium

  • 14:02An enquiry about Lange Nieuwstraat 41 lands in the office inbox.
  • 14:02You are at a viewing in Deurne. Your phone stays in your pocket.
  • 21:40You read it at the kitchen table and write back.
  • 09:15Two other agencies called her yesterday about two other apartments.
  • za 14 febShe views one of them on Saturday. Your listing was never seen.

One lead you already paid for, gone.

The same Tuesday, with Podium

  • 14:02The same enquiry forwards itself to your Podium address.
  • 14:03She has a reply in Dutch, signed by Sofie, with three viewing times.
  • 14:09She picks Thursday 17:30. You are still in Deurne.
  • 14:09Confirmed: do 12 feb 17:30, Lange Nieuwstraat 41 — in Sofie's inbox.

One confirmed viewing, and you did nothing.

03How it will work

Switched on in five minutes. Working the same afternoon.

01

One mail rule

Your portal enquiries auto-forward to your private Podium address. That is the whole setup. Nothing to install, nothing to migrate.

02

Podium answers

It reads the enquiry, recognises the property and the language it was written in, and replies with times from your agenda. Signed by the agent, reply-to the agent, agent in copy.

03

A viewing appears

The buyer picks a time. It lands in the agenda and in the agent's inbox as a confirmed viewing — an appointment the office did no work to get.

No CRM migration, no portal integration to negotiate, no new app to remember. Podium plugs into the one system every agency already lives in: email.

Every answered enquiry is a door someone still wants to walk through. Podium's whole job is to get them to it before another agency does.

04What it will cost

The price is on the page.

You buy a pack of answered leads once, and buy another when it is empty. One credit is spent per enquiry Podium answers. Confirmations, follow-ups and reports cost nothing.

Every new office gets 15 answered leads free, to see it work before paying anything.

Pack 1000

€299

excl. btw / hors TVA

1,000 answered leads. For an office with a busy rental portfolio, where one listing brings dozens of enquiries.

under €0.30 per answered lead

Pack 200

€89

excl. btw / hors TVA

200 answered leads. Enough for a sales-led office to run a full quarter of portal enquiries through Podium.

under €0.45 per answered lead

Podium is not open for purchase yet. These are the launch prices, published now so there is nothing to discuss later. There is no setup fee and there will not be one.

05What Podium will never do

Mail goes out in a licensed agent's name. We treat that carefully.

It never writes behind an agent's back.

Every reply is signed by the responsible agent, goes out reply-to that agent, and copies them in.

It never offers a time you do not have.

Slots come from your agenda in Podium and nowhere else.

It never guesses.

An enquiry Podium cannot read is flagged for a human instead of answered badly.

It never asks your agents to learn anything.

They see a confirmed appointment and a copy of what was sent in their name.

No subscription, no seat count, no setup fee.

You buy a pack of answered leads, and buy another when it runs out.

Every mail we send can be replied to.

No-reply addresses are banned here, in the product and in our own post.

Podium is open. Start with one real enquiry.

Paste an enquiry you received this week. You read the reply Podium would have sent before you decide anything: no card, no password. The first 15 answered leads are free.
