We are pleased to announce the addition of two great listing tools for you to use under the Tools menu option from our main website. We have added 14 different company branded Listing Presentation Templates as well as a generic presentation you can use to customize for your own brand if we do not have it listed. Just make the applicable edits to the different pages and save. We provide both a PowerPoint and Google Docs version. You can either print the materials out, or save to your computer and take your laptop with your and use as a tool to showcase how you will use FloorPlanOnline to market the seller’s home! you can also embed the Google doc version right into your website, just like below…so you can provide some key information to users browsing your site.
In addition, we added two printable one-page handouts on FloorPlanOnline under Tools>Marketing Downloads. One is for the Seller that you can leave as a handout and the other is something you can print out and hang up at your office.
Agents that have incorporated the FloorPlanOnline Marketing System into their listing presentations often get the listing – EVERY TIME! It can help demonstrate to the Seller that you know how to market a home, and in the most important place – ONLINE. After all, 96% of buyers in the key buying group use the Internet to search for homes. Don’t let your seller’s home be left out!
If you do not see a version for you company, just let us know and we can try to customize something for you. Just use the form below or on the Listing Presentation Template page.
I am very pleased to announce that one of our long standing FloorPlanOnline customers (actually, THE FIRST customer in the US, since she is my mother!) was honored last week as the 2009 Kansas City Regional Association of Realtors Salesperson of the Year! Congratulations Linda!
Linda is an agent with Reece and Nichols in Kansas City. She has used FloorPlanOnline from the beginning….so I would like to think we had something to do with her success, but I am also sure her hard work and dedication to her clients and community contributed to receiving this great award! Linda can be found online at www.KansasCityLifestyles.com (note, this site is something I put together for her using WordPress…..it is a great tool for real estate agents. Contact me if you want more info).
We found out last week when we are all vacationing in Maui as a family. I took a video (using my iPhone, so not the best) of the announcement by Catherine Clark, Linda’s broker. Just play the video below to see more (Hawaii was awesome, by the way… :)).
If you have news about you or someone else that uses FloorPlanOnline, we would also love to hear from you. Just email us and we can create a blog post and possibly even create a press release to mutually benefit both of us!
We offer free live training on how to best use the FloorPlanOnline system. The training typically lasts 1 hour and is full of tips and time savers – great for those that are new to FloorPlanOnline or who just need a refresher. We can also incorporate invitation-only FloorPlanOnline Training into your meeting or event (see request from below).

I attended the Seattle REBar event yesterday, and listened to Spencer Rascoff of Zillow talk about why real estate agents should put their listings on Zillow. I agree it makes sense, and here are the main reasons.
1. They are a top 1 or 2 real estate site now with OVER 8 million unique visitors and it is growing over 70% year over year – you will never get that many people to your site. A study by CAR showed that 55% of California Sellers use Zillow.
2. About 2/3rds of buyers are on Zillow to buy/sell NOW.
3. Can post your listings for free – there are broker feeds (they suggest this), agent manual or tour companies can post (we will be adding this soon). Virtual tour links come through the feeds if the process is set up correctly
4. Zillow is mobile. Their iPhone application has been downloaded over 700,000 times, by far the most popular application in any category. On weekends, 20% of Zillow’s traffic comes from iPhone users – 20%! FloorPlanOnline just launched a multi-device, mobile optimized site…so now basic content can be seen on virtually any mobile device. So upload your listings and include the foorplanonline.com link.
5. Use the Zestimates as a tool to show your real estate expertise. Zillow admits and clearly publishes the fact that the Zestimate is just an estimate…and with better data it can get better. This is where you can use your expertise as a Realtor to explain why you would price a home or why the Zestimate is not correct. Also, when you list a house for sale on Zillow, the Zestimate falls to the bottom and what is most visible on the map and property details is the listing price.
