A NEW WAY OF DOING BUSINESS IS FINALLY HERE

THE NEW WAY OF DOING BUSINESS

The time has come for change and Realtor of Excellence is more than just aware of the need to change – we have embraced it and dead set on pioneering a powerful future!

Over the past 12 months we have invested greatly in new technology and service orientated products to find a new, but stable and profitable way, to revolutionise the industry and cement our future in a volatile market. But for ultimate success, we must remain true to our core principles and values of integrity, professionalism, old school family values, humility, honesty, sustainability, value for money and transparency.

Technology is advancing daily. Consumers are extremely savvy and ever increasing access to technology has exposed them to greater choices and education on process, services and costs – and agent. We must respond if we are to remain relevant. We need to change how we do things. With a customer centric brand built around old school values and principles, but using technology to increase our speed, efficiency, profitability and reach.

Page 12: Realtor Of Excellence Introduction

OUR USE OF TECHNOLOGY

The rate of global uptake in technology and new media is unprecedented. Nothing could have ever predicted the growth rates of mobile literacy, speed of the internet, growth of Apple or the uptake of Facebook and social media. All these advancements haven’t just meant a change in how we are entertained, but more over in how we communicate, transact, research, buy – it has changed the very way in which we live. But already it has become commoditised – it is no longer about the iPad, the Blackberry, Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest. It is about content, experience, and context. The use of technology for technology’s sake is a fool’s ambition. We need to start interrogating why we use technology, what is its real purpose in business, entertainment and communication? For us, it is simple: the more advanced technology becomes, the more old school its use. It is all about service and face time. In a world where technology is designed to reduce face time, we’re using it to increase it. We are using technology to create efficiency in business operation, ensuring that the consumer has more time sitting opposite our staff, building trust and long term relationships.

OUR WORLD

Page 15: Realtor Of Excellence Introduction

THE REALTOR OF EXCELLENCE PLATFORM EXPLAINED

Our app based sales management software and client management software has been designed to ensure we create a paperless, fast, efficient and transparent experience for the seller, buyer and agent.

This virtual office, with client interface, means that everyone involved in the deal is constantly 100% up to speed with all aspects of the deal from anywhere in the world. We have also centralised all sales administration which means that the agent rarely has to go into an office to register a mandate, organise photography, coordinate the necessary certificates, apply for bonds etc. it is done automatically by utilising the iPad app. What does this really mean? It means the agents are doing what they are good at – selling. We worry about the rest. A real win-win, we think. The agents have more time with more clients now. That coupled with a higher commission structure, means they are also earning better.

Plus, because our technology is cloud based and it is accessible from anywhere in the world, making you incredibly agile!

The biggest impact of all in this new world, is that we are not interested in selling loads of franchises. What we are after are the individual agents as we supply the support and back-end for all aspects of the transaction. This includes all marketing services, sales administration and sales support.

There is only one catch – we only go for the best agents in the areas we operate – which is why we want to bring this opportunity to you first…
