Cheryl Waller's profile
I am the National Marketing Manager for Real Tour Vision Full Service and In-House Dealers and I chose this opportunity to help RTV small business owners because I truly believe in the technology and the strength of the company. Notice I said 'small business owners' and not photographers. One of the unique attributes of our Real Tour Vision dealers is that each and every one of them owns their own company. So, when you choose a Real Tour Vision full-service virtual tour provider you are not just dealing with a photographer, you are dealing with a locally owned and operated company. Currently Real Tour Vision is the largest WORLDWIDE virtual tour company with over 1200 providers in 26 countries around the world. What Makes Real Tour Vision Your Best Choice for Online Marketing of Your Listings?
Lets start with a few questions.
What Do We Mean By Interactive Virtual Tour?
The 360 degree interactive virtual tours provided by Real Tour Vision virtual tour companies allow viewers to click on tour 'Hot-Spots' (which are navigation buttons ON the tour itself) and then navigate the business or real estate listing without the use of drop-down menus or distracting links, like you would find on other lesser quality virtual tours.
Why would an interactive 360 degree virtual tour be better than a slideshow or video tour ?
Interactive virtual tours combine the power of an online virtual experience with the ‘point-and-click' functionality of the internet. On-tour ‘hot-spots' enable viewers and interested buyers to control the entire virtual experience without ever leaving the viewing area.
Our proprietary technology also allows us to offer 2D & 3D floorplans that enable viewers to click on any room on the floorplan and instantly view that room. With other types of marketing tools, your viewers just sit and watch, whereas with an interactive tour or 2D/3D floor plan, they can control their own viewing experience.
If you are currently considering the use of virtual tours in your real estate marketing, you may want to read the Blog Virtual Tour Software Research Pays Off. In her blog, Trish Edmonds talks about her decision to become a Real Tour Vision Jacksonville area Virtual Tour provider .In fact, many Real Tour Vision Virtual Tour providers chose to partner with Real Tour Vision only AFTER researching many other virtual tour solutions, myself included.
I know that when I started my first virtual tour company with Real Tour Vision, I spent months researching and using several different virtual tour software solutions before I chose to partner with them as a provider. My small virtual tour company quickly grew to service three counties, over 150 real estate agent clients and several commercial clients.
If you are a realtor that has never used virtual tours in your marketing before, or simply have decided not to use them, take a moment to read Chris Grumley's blog Virtual Tours - Seeing is Believing about his experience with a realtor that simply refused to use virtual tours in his real estate marketing until he encountered our technology. Chris Grumley is a leading Manatee Couty Virtual Tour Provider in Florida.
In his blog, Losing my One-Shot-Lens and Finding RTV Anthony Pastoriza talks about his experiences with virtual tour software and the nightmares he faced before making the decision to lose his One-Shot lens and partner with RTV. Anthony is now a leading Kent County Virtual Tour Provider in Delaware. In fact, if you are currently in the research phase of choosing a virtual tour solution, I highly suggest that you sift through the virtual tour company blog and see what others have to say about this incredible technology, why they chose to partner with Real Tour Vision and the difference it has made in their businesses and the businesses of their clients.
What about marketing? Do you post tours on Realtor.com?
A virtual tour is an Internet marketing tool, without being actually marketing on the Internet, it is nothing more than a wasted advertising expense. After your tour is completed, your Real Tour Vision Provider will not only be able to post your tour on Realtor.com, but will automatically distribute your virtual tour to major Internet portal sites.
Everything is about marketing your listings, the more successful you become as a real estate agent, the more successful the RTV Dealer Network becomes. This results in even more marketing for our dealers your tours, your listings, and all of this happens automatically when you choose a Real Tour Vision Provider as your marketing partner.
The Virtual Tour Technology:
There are many national and local companies to choose from. In fact, today, if you are to pull up a listing of all Realtor.com ® Picture Path® authorized partners, you would probably see a very long and almost overwhelming list. This is mostly due to the fact that there are no costs to be an authorized partner. This opens the floodgates for all kinds of different 'virtual tour' companies that may or may not market your listings effectively.
Why are Real Tour Vision Dealers Better? Click on that link and see why virtually all Real Tour Vision Full Service Providers are LEADERS in their market places. Our interactive technology has been around for over 8 years, yet just recently hundreds if not thousands of companies are emerging all over the nation using inferior technologies and then marketing them as ‘virtual tours' .
I call it the ‘jack-in-the box' effect, but you can read more about that here in my article The Virtual Tour Dilemma. Since Picture Path® opened the doors to pretty much anyone with a camera and a website, it is my opinion that this dilemma is only going to worsen. Unfortunately this makes your job as a real estate agent much more difficult when it comes time to select a tour provider.
The Results - Virtual Tour Testimonials:
"You guys are great! I never have to worry about how long it's going to take to get my tours scheduled or about how long it's going to take to get the final product. To date, all of my clients have been very happy with your professionalism and your product. Thanks for helping to make my job a little bit easier:)"
