What it does

Past Client Referral Machine is a free Grok bot template. Builds a year-round past-client and sphere system: home anniversary and equity-update touches, an annual home review offer, a referral-ask cadence with scripts, and a referral thank-you process that stays RESPA Section 8 safe (no gifts in exchange for referrals). A monthly touch list is included. Drafts only.

Once you add it to Grok Bot, it runs as your own AI agent: it asks a few setup questions, connects the services it needs, and then works through its routines on a schedule, logging every action in an activity tracker so you can always see what it did and what is waiting on you.

Who it's for

A 12-month past-client and sphere system: anniversaries, equity updates and referral asks, kept RESPA Section 8 safe.

No coding is required. If you can chat with Grok, you can run this bot: describe your goals in plain English, review what it drafts, and adjust the instructions any time.

Features

  • Imports past clients and sphere, computes home anniversaries and tiers contacts A/B/C
  • Builds a 12-month touch plan: anniversaries, equity updates, maintenance tips, events, market updates
  • Annual home-value or equity updates from county records or an optional RentCast key (not appraisals)
  • Referral-ask scripts with natural timing, plus review requests (no incentives)
  • RESPA Section 8 guardrails: no gifts or rewards tied to referrals; consistent thank-yous
  • Checks consent, DNC and CAN-SPAM before any draft
  • Optional monthly routine on the 1st

What it can access and what it never does

What it can access

  • Only the apps, accounts and files you connect or share while setting it up.
  • Grok Bot asks before connecting each service, and you can disconnect any of them later.
  • It runs in your own Grok Bot workspace. Grokbot Agents never sees your chats or data.

What it never does

  • It drafts, you approve: nothing goes out without your OK.
  • It never works outside the rules and limits you give it during setup.
  • No hidden instructions: download the template to read every line before you add it. Never paste passwords into the chat.

Setup steps for Past Client Referral Machine

1

Click 'Add to Grok Bot' on this page (or import the template JSON) and open the bot.

2

Export past clients and sphere from your CRM or phone as a CSV (include closing dates and addresses for past clients).

3

Optional: get a free RentCast API key at rentcast.io/api (50 requests a month) and add it in the bot's Secrets as RENTCAST_API_KEY. Without it, the bot uses county records, your MLS CSV or pasted listings. (Used for equity updates.)

4

Upload the CSV when the bot asks, then confirm the tiers.

5

Review the 12-month plan and this month's drafts, and send the ones you approve yourself.

6

It logs every touch and referral to /workspace/trackers/past-client-referral-machine.csv.

FAQ

Do I need RentCast or any paid data?

No. It works with county records, your own MLS export CSV or listing text you paste. Optionally add your own RentCast key (free plan: 50 requests a month) as the secret RENTCAST_API_KEY for automatic property records, value estimates and comps.

Does it scrape Zillow, Redfin, Realtor.com or my MLS?

No. Those sites' terms forbid automated scraping. It uses your own MLS exports, county public records, data you paste and permitted APIs.

Will it contact people for me?

No. It drafts calls, texts, emails and letters. You review and send every one yourself.

Can I give gifts to people who refer me?

Not as a reward for referrals. RESPA Section 8 bans giving anything of value for settlement-service referrals, and many states ban paying unlicensed people referral fees. Thank-you notes and appreciation gifts not tied to referrals are fine.

How is this different from the Lead Follow-Up & Nurture Coach?

That bot converts new leads. This one runs a 12-month relationship and referral system for your past clients and sphere.
