About Gary David Hall
Founder/owner of RE-ACT & RealEstate-AgentTools
Gary's accomplishments include:
Gary David Hall became a Real Estate Agent in 1987, and has been in the industry ever since. Gary has been "in the trenches", and speaks your language. Gary's clients often qualify him as being able to teach so that they understand, without a lot of technical jargon. He knows exactly what it's like to sell Real Estate, and that is why his training is so much more relevant and insightful, than someone that was never a top producing agent. Just ask his clients. His last 4 years in Real Estate Sales, Gary did 147 sides. Having just come from a background as a computer technician, and then a computer operations manager, he was able to put many automated systems into practice. When it became evident that the industry needed the technological efficiency he used in his personal business, he decided to share that knowledge with other real estate professionals. So he founded RE-ACT (Real Estate Automation, Consultation and Training) in 1999.
Gary's primary focus is helping agents improve their transaction management, lead generation and follow-up efficiency and techniques, by using Contact Management software and transaction management software. He travels the country conducting seminars comprised of the many topics of which agents have a need for more clarity, with his "Technology Toolkit" & "Web Sites: Prospecting & Follow-up on the Internet" seminars. While you can still bring Gary to your office for a two-day Tech-Speed program to help you organize your operations with Agent Office/Online Agent/Agent 2000, he has been having great success doing it online, with GoToMeeting. He is also available for any other kind of training or troubleshooting online as well. Gary also maintains a significant knowledge base of over 1,000 links to Real Estate technology Web sites and articles at his popular Real Estate - Agent Tools web site, and a Real Estate Store with almost 60 of the most popular Real Estate software, products, and services today, many of which are offered at a discount.

A Real Talk post:
(Real Talk is a "list-serv" comprised of over 50,000 members)
"I just wanted to share with everyone that I spoke with Gary last week about changing my contact management software after he answered a post of mine here. Gary was easy to talk with, gave me plenty of time to explain my entire situation and set-up, and directed me to several different options giving me pros and cons to each. Ultimately, we arrived at a solution together, which I think is the best for me. Thank you, Gary for your excellent, unbiased help and for taking the time to understand my situation before making recommendations. I highly recommend Gary to everyone here. He is an excellent resource as most who have been members of this listserv know. I sincerely appreciate your consultant approach to my challenge. Thanks, again, Gary!!!"

A Real Talk Post:
Gary Hall first came to my attention through Real Talk. His regular posts, generosity of knowledge and accurate observations led me into his website www.GaryDavidHall.com. For anyone who has not yet bookmarked this site, I strongly suggest a visit. You will find it a labyrinth of excellent real estate resources.
My first contact with Gary was a personal consultation. Gary was on the phone and in my computer via "GoToMeeting" to import my contacts into my newly acquired Agent Office software. From this point on, my business was operating on a new level and Gary was a permanent part of my Team. I have attended his classes and look forward to his help in the future to expand my business.
I strongly recommend Gary's services to all Real Estate professionals. Gary has helped me to sharpen my edge over the competition, and has showed me many ways to optimize my time. Thanks Gary.

Hi Gary, I wanted to follow up with you regarding the success of our Agent Office software and especially the "Activity Plans" that you helped us to implement.
As you know, we have for some time been operating with extensive manual "check lists". The check lists we designed were created with two main objectives. First to enable us to work as a complete team, and second as a complete management tool for our client's entire real estate process.
With your help, we were able to fully automate our own 432 step process into the Agent Office system. Having used the system now for over a year, I can attest to you the success it has had on our business. Being able to launch plans (not check lists) has made our operation much more efficient and complete. Those in the office responsible for managing client files no longer need to improvise and second guess the process. Each step is automatically set up on their desktop w/ step by step procedures as a reference if they need it.
Our office manager has been able to alter the plans as needed, enhancing our ability to customize a particular client's process or to simply edit a plan for efficiency. Our entire business model's servicing process is in Agent Office and is the tool of choice in our company. I want to thank you for your expertise and guidance in helping us to automate our servicing process.
It has made a world of difference to all of us and most importantly helped our client's receive a thorough and completely managed real estate process.
If fully servicing a client is important, I recommend the real estate professional automate their process. No more hand written notes, no more "to do's" falling through the cracks, no more embarrassing phone calls of what was forgotten, no more sleepless nights wondering what was done or left undone. It is all there, in the system, documented and professionally managed.

Hi Gary - Because I'm a good student who listens to the instructor :>), I created the activity plans you recommended while I was taking your class. And I'm thrilled that I did. As you promised in the class, my stress level is dramatically reduced. I'm juggling 9 transactions at the moment, and don't worry about a thing because AO tells me every day what needs to be done. If some unforeseen event needs to be scheduled, I just add it to the plan. I love it!
On another subject (a favorite of yours), I had some hiccups early on with AO and somehow couldn't access my data. But, thanks to your recommendations, I bought Eazy Backup and religiously backed up AO just about every day. Thus, I was able to retrieve everything once I cured the hiccups. Then, this week, I had a weird virus (at least, I assume it was a virus), and after 6 hours on the phone with Dell and my ISP techs, my only option was to reformat the hard drive. The bad news: Reformatting and reinstalling all my programs took the better part of two days (I had no idea how many programs I use regularly). The good news: Eazy Backup had all my data, and that took less than 30 minutes to restore. Now I'm back in business. Thank you, Gary Hall!

...My experience of your training of Agent Office is that you are thorough, totally competent, patient (which is essential), maintain a sense of humor, add value from your own data base of real estate documents and personal real estate experience, and a valuable asset in the essential dialogue of setting up a real estate office contact/day to day business management program. You are also generous with your time and have a lot of stamina to get the job/goals accomplished. As to the use of PC anywhere (I use GoToMeeting now - much better and easier), it is quite simply about 99% as good as being in the same room with you; no drawback or diminished effectiveness whatsoever. I appreciate all your effort.

"I am so thankful that I found out about your Tech-Speed program. It was the answer to my Team’s flagrant offensive of purchasing technology, installing software, and then not spending any time or resources on training and integration.
Your approach, with a hands-on and on-site visit is in my opinion the ONLY ONE that works. Classes don’t. Books don’t. Tutorials don’t. You showed my team and myself how to do and why we ought to do it. It was the best money I have spent on my business this year and I endorse you and your company without hesitation.
Gary – feel free to use my name as a reference and until the next time we have you out here – keep up the good work!"
Jon Modene, Broker/Owner ABR, RE/MAX Masters

Gary, I can't thank you enough for helping me understand the role technology would play in increasing my sales and systems. The time that you spent pulling all the loose ends together for me, and explaining and simplifying it all has proven to be invaluable. I have gone from throwing internet leads in the trash, to being the first one to respond. The familiarity that you have with the products real estate professional's use, helps what was once overwhelming become fun and exciting. Thanks again.

A Real Talk post from a student:
"I've just completed Gary Hall's Agent Office online training course. I found it to be extremely helpful - and unexpectedly fun. I liked the format; visual online demos in conjunction with conference calls. I lucked out with the others in our group as well; Marcia, Dan, I look forward to hearing from you both!
Agent Office is such a comprehensive program that despite the best of intentions on my part, I know I would never quite "get around to" fully learning and utilizing all the features - which is what I really need to do in order to take my business to the next level.
For me, the best part was having the benefit of Gary's experience. As with any program, Agent Office has its own idiosyncrasies; Gary pointed them out and showed us how to effectively work around them, saving the pain and frustration of having to learn the hard way. He also provided a wealth of information on topics that impact Agent Office, but were not necessarily strictly about the use of the software.
Gary, I hope you read this. I want to publicly acknowledge all of your help. You were always very generous with your time and expertise, both during the actual sessions in the course and outside of them. I never could have gotten that from a book. Many thanks! I look forward to seeing what courses/offerings you may add in the future."
