Just because they take an application it doesn't mean they're interested in your place as their first choice, if at all even. People take an application just to be nice sometimes. You can be good at following up, however. When I was renting, I filed out the application, did everything, was approved, no problems. When it came to signing the lease, the lady just said, "I can't the next few days, I'm busy running errands and other things.". I moved on as I wanted to move in sooner rather than later. I found another, better place that came on the market the next day and he had me signing the lease the day after I did the application. Don't give your potential any reason to back out.

In the end, there's nothing you can do to insure people return an application. People can look and not be interested... It's just the way it is.
