Route Your Leads into Your
Real Pro System Automatically?!

Friday, October 23rd, 2009 by Admin

Tada!Have you ever wished that leads you generate with another company’s tool could somehow automagically load into your Real Pro Silver, Gold, or Platinum system so you could send drip messages, newsletters, etc.? We are developing technology to make that easier. It’s not ready for prime time yet, but you can help us get it there!

We would like to know which lead sources are the most important to you, and then we can develop a priority list for implementation. Our solution “reads” the lead notification messages generated by other tools. We will provide a special email address for you, and you set up your other tool to send the lead notification emails to that address (in addition to where they go now). So when you think of lead sources that you wish could feed directly into our products, be sure to only tell us about lead sources that generate a lead notification email.

Send a message to us at marketing@realprosystems.com, and tell us what are your most important lead sources that you wish could just automatically go into your agent system. We’ll let each of you know as we complete our support for a lead source you mention!

Increase Your Online Marketing Power: Get an Integrated IDX and Save $300 in October!!*

Monday, October 19th, 2009 by Tara Sybrant

When it comes to marketing online you have two distinct audiences:

  • Potential leads and clients
  • Search engines

Do you want to increase your online marketing power? Make sure your listings are visible to search engines! The foundation of a Real Pro Systems website is an architecture that is extremely “search engine friendly.” All of the content on your website can be readily indexed, including your featured properties.

When a Website Uses Frames the Information is Hosted on a Third-Party Site

Some websites don’t do a good job at this even when listings are loaded directly onto the site. But what’s more, many websites rely on an IDX service to present an agent’s listings.  These websites present this IDX information inside “frames.” Even though you can see your listings on your website, since search engines can’t see what’s inside of a frame it cannot index your listings. And if that’s the case, your most important website content is being ignored.

Our approach is to fully integrate with an IDX. This not only means enabling site visitors to search all properties in the MLS, it also means we automatically load your listings onto your website so the content can easily be seen and indexed by search engines.

With an IDX that is truly integrated, your website visitors have a better search experience. Framed information often is presented in a way that is clunky and confusing, and in a style that looks very different from your website.

Listings at the Top of the Search Engine

Our IDX integration means that when the listing information is loaded onto your site, you get SEO credit for the content, and you can market your listings with confidence. As a result, the listings on a Real Pro Systems website are not only indexed but come up in the top of the search engine results.

Since integration means that your listing information is pulled directly from the MLS to populate on your site it means no more loading listings to the MLS and then entering them a second time on your website! Are you tired of setting up visitors on recurring searches day in and day out? IDX integration automates the process of setting up of recurring searches, so you don’t have to!

Here at Real Pro Systems we know how valuable it can be to have a truly integrated IDX solution available to you. For the month of October we are offering special savings on our IDX solutions! From now until the end of October, you will save $300 on the set up of a Real Pro Gold agent system when you add the Integrated IDX option. (*Savings of $300 can be achieved by combining a Real Pro Gold and IDX offer; $200 off Gold setup/$100 IDX setup). This offer will NOT last, to take advantage of it call a sales representative today.  541.743.8500.

What Is RPS Working On Now?

Friday, June 19th, 2009 by Caine O'Brien

We pride ourselves on our innovative approaches to online marketing for real estate agents, so we’re not resting on our laurels after rolling out Gold3. The team is hard at work creating a new system that will be introduced later this summer. Our focus for this new offering is to meet a broad set of needs for upper-end agents, agents with teams, and small brokerages.

We’ve heard about terribly expensive lead generation systems out there and know we will offer most of the benefits they provide at about 20% of their cost! But our system under development goes way beyond lead generation.

We decided to tackle the business problems agents are grappling with including managing lead and prospect data across multiple systems, managing lead distribution and follow-up across a team, and managing business performance. We will provide oversight of the business pipeline from end to end, and immediate insight into what’s working and what isn’t.

If you are looking for all the advantages of Real Pro Gold coupled with full team support, advanced lead generation, and unprecedented visibility and control of your business, this might be of interest. A version for single agents will be offered as well.

We are in the early testing process with this new system now. As we move into summer you’ll be hearing more about it!

Conversions to Real Pro Gold3 Completed

Monday, June 15th, 2009 by Caine O'Brien

After introducing Real Pro Gold3 last fall, we offered our clients the opportunity to get a website makeover which provides a complete website transformation from Real Pro Gold version 2 to the newer version, and also includes completely new layout and branding. To date, nearly 1/3 of our clients have opted for the makeover and are enjoying the updated look and feel of our new designs.

However, we remained committed to providing the benefits of Real Pro Gold3 to our loyal clients who preferred to stay with the website design they already had. By the end of May we completed the conversions for all of our clients keeping their older designs, and are pleased to report that the conversion process went very smoothly.

To the extent the technology of the “classic” designs permitted, all of the features offered in Real Pro Gold3 are now available, with only a few exceptions. New features available include vastly improved SEO (Search Engine Optimization) tools, listing syndication, blog syndication, and far more flexibility for creating new website pages. We hope you all are enjoying the advantages of Real Pro Gold3!

NEW – Bank Owned Stealth Sites

Wednesday, April 8th, 2009 by Joe Lininger

Real Pro Systems recently worked with agent and co-founder Rob Levy of Prudential Northwest Properties to build a new stealth site, OregonBankOwned.com. The response has been nothing short of amazing! In his first month Rob generated over 200 buyer leads through this new site, now available from Real Pro Systems.

Featuring a fresh new layout complete with a tailor-made video, bank owned stealth sites offer people a fast and convenient way to sign up for your bank owned property updates. The site includes a convenient signup area for people requesting a CMA.
