You Live in a Connected World... You Work in a Connected World... It’s time to reconnect. The current economy combined with our fast-paced world of new technologies has forever changed consumer behavior. Realty Executives is acutely aware of this cultural shift and, with our long history of innovation, we are poised once again to revolutionize the industry with the right tools so you stay ahead of marketing trends through emerging technologies. To support you through the next step in the evolution of real estate search, we made a significant investment in the future of our Executives through a Technology Initiative which plans out to 2020. The reality today is that 90 percent of real estate transactions begin as online searches many months beforehand – before a real estate agent has even been selected. So, as part of Realty Executives new Technology Initiative, we launched Executive and Broker web connect platforms to promote your personal brand online, in addition to your listings, so you can be recognized as a knowledgeable thought leader for your specialty, experience and perspective. With a personal brand that consumers can recognize online, YOU will be “on their radar” – and at the top of the search engines – for consumers to find. We are also the first large real estate brand in the United States to launch a mobile connectivity platform that includes Microsoft’s new Tag™ technology, combined with text and voice lead capture, into our global marketing platform. This proprietary program launches a new era for the home buying and selling experience. With this smartphone technology, consumers receive the relevant and immediate information they want and the virtual tours and websites you want them to see. After the initial connection with your customer – you need to stay connected. That’s why we have also integrated our customer connect platform – complete with a full Customer Relationship Management system with pre-built and pre-written automatic drip marketing campaigns, client and prospect databases and social media tools – into your dashboard. And to wrap it all up in a truly robust and complete package, we connect you with your executive access toolbox – your Realty Executives resources, information, tools and programs that have been designed to maximize your potential for success every single day.

Content Syndication
With this robust platform, build YOUR brand online at RealtyExecutives.com/YourName* through an integrated set of technologies that drives leads and customers to you – including the following.
The major search engines consider websites that change their content and their home page to be more relevant – more news worthy – than those that don’t. Our syndicated content on your web connect platform ensures that your website changes regularly, if not daily, without you doing a thing – which again attracts search engine activity.
*Custom URLs can be pointed to this domain.
Website Management Console An easy-to-use console that allows you to customize, manage and edit your website, post content and blog, and manage your leads and client communications all from one dashboard.
Huge SEO Indexed Page Count & Worldwide Footprint As part of one of the industry’s largest and most innovative websites in the industry by pages indexed – your web connect website will have over 2 million pages by pages indexed (as of this printing) – driving leads and customers to you. The larger the page count, the more you should appear at the top of the search engines and the more often customers wlll find you and your listings.
Worldwide Listing Search Most agent websites only allow you to search property in a local area – but your Executive web connect platform gives you a worldwide property search for your customers on your website – thus expanding your network worldwide.
Worldwide Referral Network The worldwide property search on your site means that no matter where your customer searches for property in the world – YOU GET THE LEAD – you get the inquiry. This means that you can refer this out to another Executive in our network and increase your income worldwide.
Blog Syndication Your web connect platform is built to blog. And we work to ensure that any blog you post gets the exposure it deserves by consistently submitting our RealtyExecutives.com website and our blog content to the major search engines on your behalf.
Social Media Syndication How would you like to have listings or blogging content distributed worldwide to your customers’ social media networks? Your web connect platform enables just that by allowing ANY customer to syndicate your listings or content that your post – giving you free exposure and credibility and building your reputation as an expert worldwide.
Lead System Your business is all about connecting with your customers. When they need information, request a showing or want to reach out for help, your web connect lead routing system will connect you to customers fast! Receive leads, inquiries and notifications instantly via email or text on your smartphone, mobile device, laptop or PC. Then track each lead’s search history, every e-mail communication, and organize them in folders – enabling you to manage and grow a bigger sales pipeline and maximize your income.
“I love RE: mobile connect™! I am now receiving more leads than ever from the Tag, voice and text capture employed in my marketing and on my SmartSigns. My customers also love the virtual tour technology, as it saves them time in their property search. I don’t know what I’d do without it!”
Voice/Call Auto Information Distribution When a customer calls the toll-free number on your yard sign they can; 1) have the property information read to them over the phone, 2) have the property information and a virtual tour sent to them via text, or 3) ask to be connected to you – the listing Executive.
Text Auto Information Distribution If the customer texts a property code to the short code on your yard sign, the property information and a virtual tour is sent to them immediately via text.
Tag Auto Information Distribution The customer can scan a “Tag”, or barcode, from their car which automatically connects their smartphone to the property information and/or the virtual tour.
Auto Lead Capture When customers call or text for information, the mobile connect system instantly captures their phone number and, if the carrier shares the information, the system even captures the caller’s name.
Voice/Text/Tag Management Console Once you’ve captured this lead information, mobile connect automatically puts them into your mobile connect database, enabling you to organize these prospects, track and manage your lead sources, and create custom reports for your home seller(s) and for new prospects.
Virtual Tour Builder All of your Executive listings are automatically integrated into your mobile connect console – including all of your property photos. The mobile connect system then enables you to automatically build a virtual tour that will play on any Smartphone with one mouse click.
Automated YouTube Tour Uploader The mobile connect system then automatically uploads your virtual tour video to YouTube within the Realty Executives YouTube channel. It also gives you a quick link to that virtual tour so you can copy it and post it to your website, your social media, your emails and anywhere else that you want to post the virtual tour.
