Hello Team-

I wanted to remind everyone we have a great deal of presentation tools available to you on our intranet site under the company forms section.  One specifically is our pre-formatted lisitng presentation.  The presentation is done in PowerPoint and highlights key marketing tools our agents have at their fingertips.  These items, when supplemented with your own personal marketing, should give you a significant competitive advantage over our competition.

One of the reasons I chose to highlight these today was because as I looked through the presentations, I realized how many different ways we have to produce buyers from the marketing we do.  It was a great reminder of some of the steps our agents can take to help generate more buyers to work with.  I have attached both the WA and ID Presentations.  If nothing else, take a look at the tools available make sure you are doing everything possible to attract buyers!

Thank you and here are the presentations:  Washington Listing Presentation / ID Listing Presentation.

Have a great week…

Thanks!

Todd

First I want to offer Good Luck to Mike Bass and Shelley McDowell on their Seattle to Portland bike race this weekend!  We will all be thinking of you as we lounge on the beach this weekend!

Keep up the hard work everyone… As a company we continue to trend ahead of last year.  Stay persistent with the leads you receive.  Consumers are buying but, they are being very thorough in their search.  Work with them, follow-up, and ask them to buy!  Treat every phone inquiry as gold… each one truly is… it’s just in disguise!

Have a great week…

Thanks!
