Beaufort SC Real Estate Advanced Internet Strategy Training April 15th

Exit Realty Brokers "By Invitation Only" Training Wednesday April 15th, 2009
You understand Web Strategy! – Now let’s get the knowledge and habits of working on your website…

PDF version of Beaufort SC Web Advanced Training

Greg Bennett, the Exit Broker/Owner in Beaufort SC, is holding an advanced training for his agents on Real Estate Web Strategy Wednesday April 15th; Going beyond understanding to actual day to day implementation and results!!!

You all have heard that content is king; so how do you go about adding content to your website so Search Engines and clients can find and rank it. This One-Day Workshop was designed for Realtors who have attended “Real Estate Web Strategy” and understand that working on your website is part of your business routine… “But I have content that comes with my website?” you say… and so does everyone else… Generic content is everywhere and leads nowhere; those who optimize it the right way and create good internal and external links will become visible…

I believe that those who bring their web services and processes internally will succeed. The days of calling an external “Web Designer” or “Tech Guy” to maintain your day to day pages are over… There is still value on having a professional get you going but it is a shared responsibility; in fact the “Web Designer” should be following your lead NOT the reverse…It is neither the Vendor nor the Product that matters; it is your habits and discipline I am going to focus on... Your strategy must lead you to Google Visibility...

This Workshop was designed to enhance the ability of Real Estate Professionals compete in an ever increasing spirited Internet Landscape…

Topic: "How do I maintain my Website regularly?"

The course will cover the following topics…

1. How to layout a Web Page and how to focus on the most relevant and Visible elements
    
2. Internal Linking of your Website.
    
3. Integration of IDXPro into your website and how to create Landing pages…
    
4. How to add content from external pages?
    
5. How to Add a Listing, Syndicate it, and make sure Google finds it
    
6. How to create Listing Pages.
    
7. How to optimize your provided pages and link them to the home page without buttons
    
8. Linking the right way – tons of examples…
    
9. How to prepare pictures, link them, and align them in tables.
    
10. How to make the Google and Yahoo bots read your sitemap
     
11. What are Link Exchanges and how to work them
     
12. How do I create a Page then convert it to Blog? Is there a structure to these pages that works?
     
13. How do I add good pages to my blog that drive traffic back to me...?
     
14. How do I create a link page and use Links Partners to drive more traffic...?
     
15. & Much much more
     
16. Bring all your questions and don’t forget your assistant. You will love this class; you will feel liberated and ready to conquer your online market!!!
    

The questions a Real Estate Professional should help their clients answer are the following:

“How can I tell that you have expertise in your Real Estate Market?”

“Can I validate you online and “Google You” with Buzz around your Market expertise?”

“Is the information I find online about you fluff or substance?”

Testimonials:

	"Key, You did an amazing job teaching at the Carolina's, you have found your calling and it shows! Tam - March 7, 2009." Tami Bonnell, President U.S. Organization, Exit Realty. Event: Exit of The Carolinas Annual Awards in Charlotte NC, March 2009.
	"Absolutely you deserve a testimonial, if for no other reason than the passion you exhibit for what you do. We all should be doing something in our life that reflects exhibits that passion. Our business would reflect it! You have found yours, congrats. As for the training, W-O-W I attended the class kicking and screaming thinking it was another technical jargon class that would once again go over my head and leave me with a migraine. Not true ! I got so much useful information that I have been wanting, (did not know the right question to ask) I came out and called my partner and just threw up all over him. Told him everything I’d heard. After I finally shut up, he asked if Doug was there, (our IT guy) I told him yes, he was so delighted and said we would get started as soon as he returned home. Ya think I confused him ? Also told him you would be returning and he’d have to attend the next training. Thank you very much for simplifying the web. I know have a plan of action, one step at a time. Up then Out. I look forward to the next training." - Carolyn Greene, Realtor, Exit Realty Upstate, Greenville SC. Attended Real Estate Web Strategy in Greenville SC, Friday March 20th.
	"Key, You have been blessed with the ability to help others. You have touched so many lives and have helped them to see their true abilities... Our lives get so busy that we sometimes forget to stop and take a look around and appreciate what we have. During our journey in life we meet many people. Some are just a blur in time and some, like you make time stand still. Your excitement and passion when you teach is so amazing. My agents have started implementing what you've taught them and are starting to see results! I am so proud of our agents!" - Belinda Vercammen, Administrator, Exit Upstate Realty. Attended Real Estate Web Strategy in Greenville SC, Friday March 20th.
	"Today, five agents from our office participated in a training seminar focused on "Blog Strategy". Key Yessaad, Real Estate Web Trainer, shared valuable information on how we can use blogging as a mechanism to drive Google to us and thereby help increase showings to our listings and drive buyers to our website! Key's upbeat and energetic approach to training web strategy are invaluable tools that we can now-as is evident by this blog. Carl McClure, Cathie Saucier, Paul Saucier, Tom Baldwin and Brandon Liles are all agents based in Chapin, SC at EXIT Midlands Realty and can now begin to implement the tools gathered from today's training. Thanks Key for another fantastic day!" - Brandon Liles, Broker/Owner Exit Midlands Realty, Chapin SC. Attended Real Estate Blogging Strategy in Columbia SC Thursday March 19th.

	"Key, Just wanted to send you a quick THANK YOU!!! Do you think you could bottle your enthusiasm for all of us? Talk about not selling anything.. change your mind and let us purchase that.... I had not intended to come until the Thursday when Rick "urged" me to come and said this would be different. He was absolutely 100% correct. It was different. It was more than teaching, it was almost coaching and mentoring with truth and compassion and determination. I absolutely stepped back and asked myself some important questions right from the get go "do you have values about your life?" I was off and running from their in a quest to find the answer.. I would highly recommend your Web Strategy class to all who have an open mind and want to move forward with decisions about their life... Look forward to seeing you again soon..." - Susan McCarter, Realtor, Exit Upstate, Greenville. Attended Real Estate Web Strategy in Greenville SC, Friday March 20th.
	"Dear Key, Here is my testimonial...thanks!!! Key, I have attended two of your courses now and I have to tell you, you truly are the best. Your lessons are invaluable and the information is able to implemented immediately. As any non-native speaker will testify, it is sometimes difficult to follow a lecture not in your native tongue. However, I am always able to follow and stay focused during your courses. I wish other trainers would follow your style. Your energy is inspiring and contagious. You will definitely be seeing me in future courses…and the on first page of Google." - Sonia Roman, Realtor, EXIT Real Estate Consultants.

	"Incredible, barely describes the level of expertise of Key Yessaad. I have personally met with web designers, programmers, IT gurus, etc. Their combined knowledge doesn't even equal the holistic approach of Key's understanding of the web. I have spent tens of 1,000s of dollars for the "perfect" website and lead capture systems, with poor results. After attending a 4 hour Blog training session with Key, I posted 2 Blogs and was on page 1 of Google in position 1,2 4 and 6 and had 2 sellers contact me within 72 hours !! After Keys 4 hour Web Strategy class I finally knew that all the self proclaimed experts in the field that I had paid big bucks to, were mostly versed in only one aspect of the web. Key's knowledge of the WEB is the most comprehensive I have ever encountered and he clearly articulates his expertise in a manner that anyone can understand. Key empowered my agents to ask WEB companies the critical questions to have a WEB site that truly produces results and can organically create quality leads without spending a fortune. He also frees the agents from being dependant on the WEB master that they are at the mercy of. Any EXIT agent or broker, who thinks they know how the web works with respect to real estate, really needs to attend Key's training. They will find out how much they actually never knew. If Key was able to put 5 North Carolina EXIT offices on page 1 of Google Just imagine what he can do for all of Exit as an International Franchise. Brokers, owners and agents should not delay in scheduling Key." - Greg Bennett, Exit Realty of Beaufort.
