A couple of months ago Real Tour Vision introduced a virtual tour button that is programmable so that the virtual tour provider has the ability to enter a description and web link to the virtual tour window. I have found a couple of good uses for this valuable button. Initially we renamed the button to say “Virtual Tour Company” and added a link to go to our web site. Whenever someone selects the “Virtual Tour Company” button from any of our virtual tours they now go to our Island Digital Images, LLC web site. This is a great way for potential clients to learn more about our virtual tour company.

Some of our clients have asked us if we could add a “Welcome” video to their virtual tours. What our clients are looking for is an opportunity to add their own personality into each virtual tour. We recently ran a pilot where we video taped one of our clients at the property and gave them the opportunity to create such a “Welcome to the Tour” video. We then programmed the virtual tour provider button with the term “Realtor Introduction” and linked the button to a video that we have posted to You Tube. This now provides the opportunity for those viewing the virtual tour to “meet” the realtor. This is an example for us using this video link: http://rtvpix.com/RE-4081-1UDWQG-01

At Island Digital Images, LLC we see these as first steps of many to use this valuable button to further enable our clients to broaden their marketing opportunities.

What is Inner-Circle membership?

All RTV dealers have access to our Business Resource Center. The RTV Business Resource Center (BRC) is one of the many things that separate RTV dealers from the competition. As an RTV dealer, you are never alone when it comes to starting, growing, and marketing your business.  The BRC was created to help you establish your business correctly the FIRST time. Based on almost 10 years of industry experience, the BRC is your free business road-map. At RTV we believe that our success is wholly dependent upon your success as a small business owner, so in 2008 we acquired Rock Pointe Marketing to focus our business development and marketing programs on you.

Inner-Circle membership is an optional upgrade available to all RTV dealers. Inner-Circle membership entitles you to advanced virtual tour marketing programs, authoritative webinars, done-for-you customer newsletters, immense interactive PowerPoint presentations, Industry Research, and fresh marketing materials every month. As an Inner-Circle member you will also have access to a multitude of business resources to help you to put your business on the fast-track to success.

While RTV Inner-Circle virtual tour marketing membership is an optional service, we highly encourage you to join. The price of annual membership is an absolute bargain when compared to the amount of money that you would invest in hiring an outside marketing firm to market your business for just one month. Just visit your the RTV RPM Marketing Center and upgrade your membership today!

On Wednesday December 17th RTV dealers joined together again to listen to another amazing webinar with special guest Alan Fon of Island Digital Images. During the webinar we discussed many of the strategies that Alan has used to take his Texas virtual tour business past the 200 tour-per-month mark several times over.

Here are some of the responses we received:

Again, you and your team have exceeded all expectations.  At the rate you are going, we will all be quitting soon, to enjoy a beach somewhere in the sun. Thanks again for all your efforts, the webinars are absolutely a “must attend” for anyone serious about our business of Virtual Tours. ~ Mike

Thanks for putting together such an informative webinar. I learned a lot and will be looking forward to the next one! – Sue

I just wanted to send a quick note to say thank you! Every time I listen in to one of these webinars I learn how much more I could be doing with my virtual tour business. There are just so many good ideas to start implementing. I can’t wait to see how much this is going to increase my bottom line. – Danny
