Sharing Your Package Link
Once your marketing package is published, it lives at a unique URL that you can share with anyone. Unlike a PDF attachment or a listing on a platform that requires login, your Deal Run marketing page is a public web page that loads instantly on any device -- desktop, tablet, or phone. No account required for buyers to view it, interact with the calculators, or submit an offer.
This guide covers your package URL structure, the copy link feature, the best channels for sharing, QR code generation, custom slugs, and the publish/unpublish toggle that controls whether your page is accessible.
Your package URL
Every published marketing package gets a permanent URL following this format:
dealrun.ai/d/[deal-slug]
The /d/ prefix is a shortcut that redirects to the full path. When a buyer clicks this link, they land directly on your marketing page -- no intermediate pages, no login prompts, no distractions.
The [deal-slug] portion is auto-generated from the property address when you first create the marketing package. For example, a property at 123 Oak Street in Houston might get the slug 123-oak-st-houston, making the full URL dealrun.ai/d/123-oak-st-houston.
If you are operating under a company ID (assigned at signup), your deals are also accessible through the marketplace path: dealrun.ai/marketplace/company/[your-id]/[deal-slug]. The short URL (/d/) is preferred for sharing because it is shorter and easier to communicate verbally or in text messages.
Copy link button
The fastest way to grab your marketing page URL is the Copy Link button, available in two places:
- Marketing package editor: After publishing, a Copy Link button appears in the header of the Sell > Market page. One click copies the full URL to your clipboard.
- Deal detail page: In the Marketing Summary card on the deal detail page, the shareable URL is displayed with a copy button next to it.
The copied URL is the clean, short-form version (dealrun.ai/d/[slug]). Paste it directly into emails, text messages, social media posts, or messaging apps.
Where to share your package link
The marketing page URL works in any context where you can share a link. Here are the most effective channels for wholesale deal marketing, ranked by typical response rate:
Email blasts
Email remains the highest-converting channel for wholesale deal marketing. When you send an email blast to your buyer list through Deal Run, the marketing page link is embedded directly in the email body and in the call-to-action button. Buyers click through to the full marketing page where they can review photos, run the calculators, and submit an offer.
Email provides built-in tracking: you can see who opened the email, who clicked through to the marketing page, and who submitted an offer. This data feeds into your activity dashboard and helps you prioritize follow-up calls. For maximum deliverability, send from your own email account via Gmail API integration rather than a shared sending domain.
Include the link prominently in the email body, not buried at the bottom. A common format:
Email format that works:
3/2/1,400sf in Katy -- ARV $235K, Asking $145K
Cosmetic rehab. Est. repairs $28K. Flip profit $45K+.
Full package with photos, comps, and calculators: [your deal link]
Reply or submit an offer through the link.
SMS / text messages
Text messages have higher open rates than email (95%+ vs 20-30%), but lower engagement per message. SMS works best as a complement to email -- send a text to your most active buyers who have opted into text communication.
Keep the text message short. The link is the payload:
SMS template: New deal in Katy - 3/2 asking $145K, ARV $235K. Photos + full package: dealrun.ai/d/123-oak-st [your name]
The short URL format (/d/) is especially valuable in SMS where character count matters and long URLs look suspicious. TCPA compliance applies to all SMS outreach -- only text contacts who have opted in to receive messages from you.
Social media
Posting your deal link on social media -- Facebook investor groups, LinkedIn, Instagram, BiggerPockets forums -- gives your deal exposure beyond your direct buyer list. When you paste a Deal Run marketing page URL into a social media post, the platform automatically pulls the Open Graph metadata to display a preview card with your hero photo, the property address, and a description snippet.
Effective social media sharing tips:
- Facebook investor groups: Post in local real estate investor groups. Include the key numbers (beds/baths, asking price, ARV) in the post text along with the link. Group admins may have rules about deal posts -- follow them.
- LinkedIn: Best for reaching higher-volume buyers and fund managers. Frame the post professionally -- focus on the investment metrics rather than hype.
- Instagram: Share the hero photo with deal specs in the caption and the link in your bio or stories. Instagram does not allow clickable links in post captions, so use the Stories swipe-up feature or direct buyers to the link in your bio.
- BiggerPockets and investor forums: These communities have strict self-promotion rules. Post the deal in the marketplace section if available, or share it contextually in discussions about your local market.
Buyer groups and messaging apps
Many wholesalers maintain private buyer groups on WhatsApp, Telegram, or Facebook Messenger. Sharing your deal link in these groups is fast and reaches an audience that has already expressed interest in receiving deals. The marketing page link works in all messaging apps -- buyers tap the link and the page opens in their phone browser.
QR code generation
Deal Run generates a QR code for every published marketing package. The QR code encodes your deal URL and can be scanned by any smartphone camera to open the marketing page directly.
QR codes are useful in several contexts:
- Bandit signs: Place a QR code on your "We Buy Houses" or "Investment Opportunity" yard signs at the property. Drive-by investors can scan the code and instantly access the full marketing package.
- Printed flyers: If you distribute printed deal flyers at investor meetups or networking events, include the QR code so recipients can access the digital marketing page with all the interactive features (calculators, offer form) that a printed flyer cannot provide.
- PDF deal packages: The generated PDF includes the QR code on the cover page, linking back to the live web version of the marketing page. This is useful when buyers receive the PDF via email and want to access the interactive calculators.
- Business cards: If you are networking with investors, a QR code linking to your most recent deal or your marketplace page gives them instant access to your active deals.
The QR code is generated using QRCode.js and is available in the marketing package editor. You can download it as an image file and include it in any print material.
Custom slugs
The default URL slug is auto-generated from the property address, but you can customize it to something shorter, more memorable, or more descriptive. Custom slugs are a Tier 2 field -- fully editable at any time.
To set a custom slug:
- Open the marketing package editor for your deal (Sell > Market).
- Find the URL Slug field in the settings section.
- Enter your desired slug. Use lowercase letters, numbers, and hyphens only.
- The system checks for uniqueness -- no two deals can have the same slug.
- Save. Your marketing page is now accessible at the new URL.
Good custom slug examples:
katy-3bed-ranch-- Short, descriptive, location-specific.spring-duplex-145k-- Includes the asking price for instant context.heights-flip-deal-- Targets a specific buyer strategy.
Avoid excessively long slugs or ones with special characters. The slug appears in the URL bar, in link previews, and may be read aloud over the phone. Keep it clean and simple.
Changing the slug changes the URL. If you have already shared the old URL via email or social media, those links will stop working after a slug change. The old slug is not automatically redirected to the new one. Only change slugs before your initial marketing blast, not after.
Active/inactive toggle (publish/unpublish)
Every marketing package has a publish toggle that controls whether the page is publicly accessible. When published (active), anyone with the URL can view the page. When unpublished (inactive), the URL returns a "deal not available" message.
Common reasons to unpublish a marketing page:
- Deal is under contract: Once you accept an offer and the deal is under contract, unpublish the marketing page to stop incoming offers. You can update the status to reflect "Under Contract" instead of fully unpublishing if you want to keep the page visible as a portfolio piece.
- Deal fell through: If the original contract with the seller falls through, unpublish immediately so you do not receive offers on a deal you no longer control.
- Price adjustment in progress: If you are making significant changes to the asking price, ARV, or description, you may want to briefly unpublish, make the edits, and republish so buyers do not see an incomplete or inconsistent page.
- Deal closed: After the deal closes, unpublish the marketing page. The data remains in your account for reference, but the public page is no longer accessible.
The publish toggle is available in the marketing package editor header. Toggle it once to publish, toggle again to unpublish. The change takes effect immediately -- there is no delay or approval step.
When a page is unpublished, existing links to that URL will show a clean "This deal is no longer available" message rather than a broken page or error. This maintains a professional impression even for stale links.
