Details of My Showing Log
Through the years I have come to prefer computer tools that don’t involve buying a program and installing on a computer. Computers get old, they break or catch a virus. You might even use several different computers in a day - who can afford the time and expense of maintaining multiple computer programs?
The words ?to describe ?a computer tool that is not a program installed on your computer are “web based”. Our “Feedback Tool” is called “My Showing Log” and it is web based. It works from anywhere you can connect to the internet. With all of their web based products, google is a master of this approach. I consciously tried to copy a tiny part of their successful approach.
The buzz word on the internet today is “communities”. The big internet companies are racing to develop “communities” for everything, sharing video, personal profiles, music. Just like a village can help to raise a child, a community on the internet can give an idea life. My Showing Log allows you to work as an individual or form a community such as a sales team or office.
What I mean by community here is that with My Showing Log you can form a group of individual users. You have your own account and data, but you can allow other’s to access it. The old fashioned equivalent would be giving contact information to the floor person so they can set up showings or letting an assistant call for and record feedback. My showing log allows different levels of sharing that can be simply assigned or taken away.
The computer has a huge advantage over these old examples because you can access your information anywhere, any time. If you or anyone in your community makes a change everyone in the community sees it in real time. Click here for some examples.
In its simplest form, My showing log is a website that stores information about your listings and provides you with ?information ?to contact ?other Realtors. Its a lot like an electronic form of the little book you keep for the floor person or front desk person to refer to when setting up showings.
You can access My Showing Log from anywhere and you can keep it private, share it or un-share. When the floor person sets up a showing they can find all the information about the listing very quickly in My Showing log. They can quickly verify the showing agents office, phone number and email with the click of a mouse. My showing Log can send the showing agent a confirmation for the showing via email. It can send a copy to the listing agent and the seller if you wish. After the showing occurs my showing log can send an email to the showing agent with a simple feedback form for the agent to fill out.
When the showing agent submits the feedback form, feedback is stored for later use. My showing Log can also email the feedback results to the listing agent and the seller if you wish.
Since my showing log is web based, you can access it and set up a showing at any time and the information is available to your community in Real Time. If you don’t want to be in a group, you can be out of it with the click of a mouse. You can rejoin just as quickly.
