TL;DR
What did Frankie Ranzino (@fmranz48) use Grok Bot for?
Tired of missing 9 PM client texts, a mortgage professional has Grok Bot check his messages from 8 to 11:30 PM and send clients asking about a mortgage or an offer his booking link for a call the next day. In his words, "No one gets left on read."
What they did
Clients often texted him around 9 PM, and he either missed the texts or answered half-asleep. He set Grok Bot to check his Messages from 8 to 11:30 PM. When a client texts about a mortgage or an offer, it replies with his booking link so they can grab a call the next day. He limited it to one reply per person and told it never to reply to his realtor partners.
How it went
In his words, "No one gets left on read."
Worth knowing
- Set clear rules about who gets an auto-reply and how often, as he did, so partners, family and repeat texters don't get canned messages. The reply only offers a call; it doesn't answer loan questions.
- Price check: Grok: free plan; Plus (The X Subscription): US$8/month, or US$6.67/month on a yearly plan (US$80/year) (checked Oct 28, 2026).
Try it yourself
Paste this into a chatbot, then add your own details underneath.
Each evening from 8 to 11:30 PM, check my text messages. If a client asks about [topic, such as a quote or appointment], reply once with: "Thanks for reaching out! Grab a time to talk tomorrow here: [booking link]." Only reply once per person per night, never reply to anyone on my [partners/family] list, and send me a morning summary of who you replied to.
