Vyoo.it - Real Estate Mobile Marketing! Are you vyoo'ing your listings?

By
Real Estate Agent with Lattimer Realty

I was just updated one of my recent postlets and noticed the link to vyoo.it.  I had never heard of vyoo.it but it piqued my interest:  

  • Make your postlets mobile with vyoo.it!;
  • get a mobile-optimized landing page;
  • get a short URL to use in all your marketing efforts; and
  • visitors will see the version that's right for their viewing device.

vyoo.it real estate mobile marketing for your listings

Vyoo.it is a real estate mobile marketing application that extends your reach to consumers using mobile devices. If  a potential buyer is driving by one of your listings or browsing through listings on their phone, with vyoo.it you have the ability to provide them with the property information they want in a mobile ready format that they can see right then and right there!

If you already have a Postlets account, creating your vyoo is simple.  It will import all your information directly from postlets.  If you do not have a postlets account, you have to manually enter the listing information. 

Its free to sign-up and you can log in using your Facebook log in and password.  Once logged in, on Vyoo.it  you can:

Postlets.comOptimize your listing for mobile devices

How does your property website or virtual tour look on a 4-inch screen? Vyoo.it can optimize any existing listing for mobile access by quickly generating a mobile-friendly landing page. Mobile users will see this mobile-friendly landing page, all others will be redirected to your existing non-mobile version.  For example, my vyoo.it link: http://vyoo.it/e1e38, on most mobile devices, "should" appear as a mobile-friendly listing.  If you were to click on the above link from your computer, it will redirect to the non-mobile version of my postlets ad.  From what I understand, the mobile friendly landing pages are currently optimized for the iPhone and Android.  our mobile landing pages are currently optimized for the iPhone and Android-based devices.   As of the writing of this post, the mobile friendly feature does not work with Blackberry but vyoo.it does plan on creating optimized versions for Blackberry, Nokia and other smartphones in the future. 

Shorten your listing page URL

No need to hassle with a vanity domain, we'll give you a short link that's both easy to remember and promote. You also get a QR code for your vyoo URL. You can print these on your sign riders, printed flyers and postcards, newspaper advertising and, well, just about anything to promote your listing.

Easily share your links

With just a couple of mouse clicks, you can share your shortened links and listing descriptions with friends, followers and fans on popular social media services like Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn.

Although I'm bummed about vyoo.it not being compatible at this time with the Blackberry since I'm a Crackberry junky Blackberry user, I know many people utilize the iPhone so consumers should be able to view my mobile-friendly listings

So what is your take?  Are you vyoo'ing your listings

Thanks for the info Gina - will check them out.  We've been using RealBird.com and now Toor.me - of course the QR codes will be the biggest hit to RE marketing as they start to catch on.
