Leading The Pack With Tech: How You Can Stay Ahead
Technology is becoming the key that separates the most successful real estate agencies and brokerages from all the rest. You do not need to be part of a huge team to take advantage of the latest artificial intelligence (AI) or machine learning, however: It is within your reach right now.
Real estate agents have always faced this critical issue: When someone wants to buy, it isn't always easy for them to tell the difference between one agent and another. With the right technology, applied in the right ways, you can meet their needs proactively — that's the ultimate differentiator.

Don't Understand PPC? We Can Make It Simple
Pay-per-click (PPC) online advertising may seem like one of the most challenging topics around.
But of all the industries that use PPC, real estate agents are among those most likely to gain a true windfall of business value. That's because PPC ads that may cost only a few dollars a week greatly accelerate the process of attracting qualified buyers to properties.
We know: From the outside, PPC seems complicated, technical, and risky.
The truth is, profiting from PPC ads has gotten more and more difficult over the past few years. When more advertisers join a platform, the prices go up. At the same time, each major digital platform is at work on new ways to protect its investment, making the standards for every ad higher.
But there is a simple, powerful way around all that...

How To Evolve From Doing Things The Old Fashioned Way
Even in real estate, businesses rarely leap onto the scene "fully formed," ready to use best practices to the utmost. Any business usually builds over time. Whatever works at the beginning is maintained until it stops working — and, often, long after that.
This tendency is why businesses are said to have "growing pains." It's one of the reasons why, in so many industries, full potential for growth is realized only after an infusion of investor money. In real estate, however, professionals are called on to evolve without the benefit of lavish resources.
Real estate teams usually remain lean and mean, focused on doing more with less.
Unfortunately, it's also the case that real estate experts can get dragged down by the day-to-day grind of moving transactions...

Is Tech Taking Over? Why Agents Are More Important Than Ever
Real estate technology is moving faster than ever, and some agents are beginning to wonder if they'll be left behind. Big industry players have made moves to automate real estate in disruptive ways — but, in the long run, they've only succeeded in "disrupting" their own business.
It is becoming more obvious that the average buyer or seller doesn't want a fully AI-driven process, nor do they want to do it all themselves, no matter how convenient the tools become. What they want is personalized advice from a local expert.
Rather than replacing agents, the best technology enhances what they can do.
More Accessible Technology Means Better Results for Organizations of All Sizes
It was not that long ago when the best technology was available o...

The Biggest CRM Myths Debunked
A real estate CRM provides total visibility into your prospects, leads, and current customers. That makes it easier to know precisely when and how to follow up with the people who can advance your business, potentially saving you thousands of hours of work in a year.
That naturally raises the question: Why doesn't everyone use one?
Long before there was a dedicated real estate CRM, the concept was limited to enterprise sales teams in a variety of unrelated industries. Salespeople who were converting to digital for the first time usually had an established style of doing things, which made them less likely to embrace a...
