Got Podcasting?

Real Living Helios Realty is the first brokerage in Chicago to adapt the 'podcast' to help advertise their listings.

In essence, the virtual tour is taken to the ipod. Buyers with video ipods can now conduct their real estate searches virtually anywhere they can take their ipod! All they have to do is subscribe to a podcast (see http://www.reallivinghelios.com/) and listings will automatically download to their ipod.

Every listing I take as an agent I advertise using this and many other effective methods to make sure that my listings are as visible as possible to the general public and the real estate community.

Staying on the cutting edge keeps me effective and my clients happy. Considering the buyer favored market we are currently experiencing it is very helpful to have the best advertising systems possible in place. Podcasting is one of those systems.

John, with today's technology the agent has many different options to maintain a presence with their clients. We try to incorporate as many of these tools as possible in the 4MySales.com system; including podcasting.

Hello,

I saw your post about cutting edge technology.

I am reading more and more about podcasting for marketing purposes. I live in Ohio and some agents are considering making virtual tours available via yard signs with the new podcast technology.

The tour is downloaded onto the cell phone. And a call-capture feature allows the caller to opt in to receive an automatic message from the agent.

Or there is a feature from RealPing called "push-to-talk. You add it to your website and visitors can contact you via their computer. You can have it routed to your cell phone, so when it rings, you can show listings from your site. You don't need a laptop.

I think it is a great way to keep the customer needs met.
