Karri Christensen & Stephen
Wright took us at our word when they learned they could create as many
Real Estate Shows as they wanted, about anything they wanted.

We have often suggested that Realtors partner with a local business to
create Shows about their services and facilities to use on the client’s
website or in their own Internet marketing efforts. Karri and Stephen
actually did it. They put together an excellent presentation for a
local business, Taft Crude Coffee House.

“The coffee shop owner was also a client,” they said. “We recently have
taken an EPro certification which explored the idea of using tools to
attract people to your website. So, we offered to our client an
opportunity to "advertise" on our website, and use the links for free.
It appears that it has also has had the most hits."

“I am sure he has told all his friends and customers to "check it out".
He was the first trial at the clip, and was very pleased and felt it
represented his business well,” Stephen continued. “We have since sold
one of his properties and have the listings on two others with an offer
coming in today. We are very pleased with the service your company
offers and love the new enhancements. Thank you for all your hard work.”

We know this kind of an effort builds and solidifies relationships. If you google "Taft Crude Coffee House" their Real Estate Show is in the top three links. They created a Show for their Doctor’s office as well Click Here. Check out the "Taft Fun Clips" on their website. We think they are right on target with this creative marketing approach.

Karri and Stephen, thank you for creating excellent examples of how to use Real Estate Shows to go way beyond the listing to strengthen relationsips, expand your network, and increase your earnings.

Because we allow you to create as many shows as you want, even shows
that may only be for personal use, you have to tell the system what
shows you want Internet viewers to be able to see when they are looking
at shows they find during their home searches. From your main menu,
click on Manage & Edit Existing Shows. This will take you to a list of your previously created shows, your My Real Estate Shows page. Then, check the box next to Viewable In “Other Shows”
for the listing you want Internet viewers to be able to see. This will
add that Show automatically. See the graphic below:

In this example, the top Show can only be viewed by those who receive the link via email or who link directly to it. The Show on the bottom now appears in the “Other Shows” link of all of this user’s Shows.

Donna Robertson didn’t hold back when we asked her to talk about the
Show she created to highlight Lacey Township in New Jersey.

“The idea for the Show was born out of necessity,” Donna said. “So many
people are starting their search for a home on the internet and have no
clue about an area or what a town has to offer. They call and want to
see homes all over the place. Today, there is not enough time. Real
Estate Shows help in narrowing down the search. It has been my
philosophy over the years to not only sell a client a home, but our
town. So many potential clients don’t have the time to even see homes,
let alone take a tour of the area. I just listened to what a lot of
clients were saying they were looking for. The Show acts as a reminder
for them. It keeps them thinking about Lacey Township.”

“Creating the Show was the fun part,” she added. “I have read all of
your tips and tried using them in each of my Shows, but it all came
together in this Show. Your tools for creating this make it so easy. I
tried experimenting with all your features and a whole world opened up
- the left/right pan, camera movement, even the best placement of the
titles. And this is from someone who has basic computer skills.”

Donna, this is just an excellent Show. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and your enthusiasm.
