Question Email Agent Flyers - Has Anyone Used Them?
Has anyone used Email Agent Flyers, and if so what as your experience. I came across the website today whilst I was evaluating some other options....but I have never heard of them before.

Thanks for the feedback!

I have used them for my own Real Estate business. Not sure how effective they were really. I have never had someone email me as a direct result of the flyer. And as a Realtor we get sooo many a day. We pick and choose which ones we open, so make the title catchy.

Thanks for the feedback Tamika!

Quick question OT for you - do you think that holding your real estate license is beneficial to you as a VA? :cool:

I can't really say. I will say that I consider it somewhat of a risk in particular if I'm marketing to local realtors because they may view me as compeition. For other markets maybe not so much. I would hope it is beneficial in that I understand the inner workings of the industry, but my VA business has not directly benefited yet. I had my license before I started my VA business though.

Hey ladies. The topic of holding your real estate license as a VA would be great a new thread topic.

But, I too, hold my real estate license here in MN, and have not found it to be a hindrance to my VA business at all, but a great benefit because I've been able to assist my clients in a way that other unlicensed assistants or VAs can. I'm very upfront about the benefits of me being licensed, as well as the fact that I hold a very high ethical stance to both of these businesses and that there is a strong expectancy of privacy and confidentiality.

I have clients within the same brokerage that holds my license, but I also service clients from several other brokerages. The perceived risks involved in working with a licensed agent to handle another agent's real estate business seems to be overshadowed by the far greater benefits of working with a licensed assistant. I find that my experience and knowledge of this industry, the market in my "main" territory, the most common systems utilized by agents in our area, coupled along with the latest and greatest tools and systems that I've learned as a REVA from other VAs across the nation, have had a profound effect on how I can, and do positively assist my clients in their day-to-day business. It has even helped me to help them in meeting new business goals.

Again, I hold myself very professionally and to high ethical standards, and therefore have never had any issues, but rather grateful and appreciative clients in the real estate industry. I really think it depends on how you present yourself and your business to prospective clients. And, it helps if you have some good reviews from past/current clients in the same field.

Has anyone else had a positive or negative experience?
