The New large FloorPlan View with Zoom tool in FPO 2.0

FloorPlanOnline Customers will instantly feel at home with the updated FloorPlan View.  FPO 2.0 has the same simple to use  Click the kitchen & See the kitchen system.  The Floor Plan View is larger and looks more crisp with higher resolution. The built in zoom feature  allows detailed floorplan inspection. This is especially useful on a large property.

The best part of the FloorPlan view may be the new Full Screen option.  Its a bit of a hidden gem –  so look for the square screen icon with arrows pointing outward to view the floorplan virtual tour full sized.

The Cool New Photo Viewer in FPO 2.0

The New photo viewer is easy to use and very stylish.  Buyers may mouse down to scroll thru the property photographs in a crisp resolution wide ratio format.   There are now two modes within the photo viewer – sideshow or photo gallery mode.  Both now incorporate customizable text to any photo.

The Full screen option makes the high quality images pop off the buyers screen.

The New Room Planner Tool's Drag & Drop Furniture

The All New Room Planner is incorporated directly into the tour.   Room Planer allows buyers to drag and drop furniture on the floorplan in the Virtual Tour.

This tool causes interested buyers to get emotionally attached to the listing while decorating or updating the listing with furniture, rugs, appliances and landscaping.

Room Planner turns a listing into a home.

The New Video View of FPO 2.0 Virtual Tour by FloorPlanOnline

The New Wide Screen Crisp Video View of FPO 2.0

Video is a key component of the new FPO 2.0 Virtual Tour.  The FPO system automatically creates the WalkThru video using the photos.  You can always change the music, set different photo movement (“transitions”) and photo position, and even adjust the display timing for each photo (all under Edit Tour/Edit Video). The WalkThru will be featured in the Dashboard View and on the left media column of the tour.  It includes high resolution wide style photos,  your choice of 300 music pieces, complete edit-ability, customizable text and the loop feature.

You may also include your own video link (such as YouTube or Flip Video) on the tour as a link under Additional resources.  Future enhancements will allow it to be directly embedded in the tour under the Media options.

FPO 2.0 will bring a high level of information to the home buyer about a listing.  Our goal is to provide the most robust content platform for property online. We are taking great care to offer this premium service afford-ably and efficiently.

Tweet Privately Now!

Twitter launched a built in tool that makes private conversations on Twitter possible. Most people use Twitter for comments and questions that are relatively public. Tweets can be seen by followers and easily found when searched. Sometimes you may not want the world to know about your tweet, and it is intended for one single person – like “Billy, Do you want to meet at Goose Island Brewery after work for a beverage?” Twitter created Direct Messages (known as a DM) to be a private tweet that is not seen by all your followers. In a way Twitter DM’s are more like email than Twitter. You still have to limit your message to 140 characters, however you can save delete or privately respond like a good old fashioned email.

DM’s are easy to use. When you write a tweet that is intended for one person include a “D” to start the message followed by the persons Twitter name and then the message. So my example from above looks like:
“D @billyblob Do you want to meet at Goose Island Brewery after work for a beverage?” The message will be privately delivered to Billy. I would improve the message and include a link to Goose Island Brewery, so Billy can learn more about the place. @gooseisland is the Goose island Brewery twitter name, so I would insert it in to the direct message like this:
“D @billyblob Do you want to meet @gooseisland after work for a beverage?”

There is a second way to send a Direct message that may make the process more easy to use. From your twitter page, click “Direct Message” on the right side of your screen. You will see the words “Send _______ a direct message”. A drop down box at the top of the screen that allows you to select individuals from your Follow list. Select their name and enter your message, then click “send”.

Following all your direct messages can get a bit tricky using the simple but effective built in Twitter tools. To manage my twitter Ive been using Tweet Deck or @tweetdeck. Its a quick Download at http://www.tweetdeck.com/ that allows you to view messages in movable columns. I follow my DM’s in one collum, my mentions (where someone includes @fpo in a message) in another and then can track trending topics or conversations in several other columns. Tweet Deck allows for easy to follow DM tools. Simply mouse over the avitar (photo) of whom you wish to DM, look for the envelope icon (it is the icon for a DM in Tweet Deck) to pop up and click it.

Try posting your FloorPlanOnline Tour to Twitter using the blue “T” button at the bottom left of the tour. Send a DM with the tour link to the seller, so they can share the tour link on twitter with their network!

If you would like to test your new DM skills, Tweet a direct message Hello to D @FPO
Tweet ya later!

Get Connected, Stay Connected

Introducing a new coaching service by FloorPlanOnline’s resident social media expert Chris Drayer – the Get Connected, Stay Connected Program.

Get Connected, Stay Connected is about getting you and your business more exposure online, where 90% of people search for homes. Today, being online is as important, if not more important, than putting a sign in front of the house. You can leverage the power of social networks like Twitter, Facebook, Linkedin and others to connect with your network, extend that network, and maintain the connection.

In addition, the coaching service will teach you about other sites you really should be using and how you can become a local expert in your area. Many agents are not putting 100% of their marketing efforts online, and decreasing their costs dramatically, while increasing their overall business.

To learn more, just complete the email request below and Chris will follow up with you to schedule your first coaching session.
