Testimonial
Our audience is quite select, so we have to be thoughtful about how often we reach out—we can’t risk overwhelming them with messages. On average, our clients hear from us every 4 to 7 days, which means each offer must be spot-on.
Maestra helps us make that happen. The segmentation is incredibly precise—it takes into account many parameters, starting with language and extending to lifestyle preferences.
We also reduce fatigue by combining channels. With Maestra, we know exactly which messages were delivered to each client—whether via email, SMS, or WhatsApp—and can avoid overcommunication.
And because we work with high-net-worth clients, data security is crucial. That’s another reason we rely on Maestra—it gives us full confidence that our clients’ information is safe.
Segmentation examples
The team uses Maestra to build highly targeted segments based on:
- Property preferences (villas, penthouses, waterfront)
- Budget ranges
- Geography (both within Dubai and globally)
- Lifestyle preferences (golf, yachting, large families, etc.)
- Preferred language
Importantly, they exclude any clients already working with agents or in the final stages of a transaction—ensuring that those customers aren’t distracted with marketing messages at sensitive moments.
The outcome? About 1% of recipients turn into real estate leads. In an industry where deals average millions, that’s a solid win.
