"When I was looking for a company to go with, I went online looking for a quality product. RTV had what I wanted and so much more. I never expected their support to be so awesome! Believe me, in the beginning I was calling "support" every day, several times a day for help. I'm sure they thought I would never last but I was determined to learn the virtual tour system and do the type of quality virtual tours I knew I could. The learning process took about 2 weeks. Probably what impresses me the most is their loyalty. I can't count the times that Jason LaVanture has turned away interested people who wanted to start RTV virtual tour dealerships in my area. Jason would even call me if the person was wanting to start a dealership anywhere in Missouri or Arkansas to make sure it wouldn't be infringing on my territory. I think the "loyalty" issue is one of the things I most respect and appreciate about RTV. I was a dealer for another virtual tour company before RTV and they did not show me that kind of loyalty which is the reason I went "shopping" for another virtual tour company in the first place (and took all my Springfield virtual tours and clients with me!)

Getting started . . .

I started part-time basically. I had one "big-hitter" realtor and was doing all of her virtual tours on her high-end listings. Other agents would see her virtual tours and want tours just like "Ethel's". It just built from there. I now have several "big-hitters" and lots of "little-hitters" and full-time work during most of the year. In fact, my husband also helps with the virtual tour photography and my daughter-in-law helps with the stitching. It may start out a little slow, Randy, but it will snowball if you hang in there.

In my market here in southwest Missouri, I have to be competitive with my pricing. I only charge $75 for a basic tour, so, after the $10 I pay RTV for the tour hosting, I net $65 per tour. I'm doing roughly 10-15 per week, so netting $650 to $975 per week. In your market, you may have no problem netting $90-100 per virtual tour (maybe more). Our selling season slows down considerably from November--February, then it takes off again. At that time I'm lucky to have 2 tours a week. Just being honest. Please feel free to call me later this week if you have any other questions. I wouldn't hesitate too long though. You definitely want to grab your territory while its available. Going with RTV was the best decision I could have ever made!"

"Hey Everyone at RTV !!! You guys rock. I can't think of any other company that focuses so much on it's distributors. Thank you so much for helping us with training and giving us the tools, knowledge and methods to grow our businesses into successful, competing companies. The past few webinars have been right on target with helping us understand and utilize social networking and optimization. I'm really excited about the HD and Full Screen options. Wow, the pics look so much better and THAT'S what will get us more clients.  A special thanks to Mike Thompson for sharing his knowledge and experience. It's good to hear and learn from other RTV dealers. Nancy Bain is a great inspiration. I've learned so much from her ... and I bet she doesn't realize that she's been a positive business influence. Keep up the great work RTV, we appreciate your hard work and support."

"I have been involved in land development, on the CAD (Computer Aided Design) side, for over 20 years. When the economic downturn occurred, the land development industry slowed to a crawl, forcing many engineering firms to have layoffs. I was one of several thousand engineers in the industry who was affected by this.

One always has to be open and ready for change. Now was the time to be proactive. With the absolute belief that I am in control of my own success or failure in life, I began to make some changes. I had always wanted to start a business involving video, and photography. With 20 years of computer work and engineering under my belt, I wanted to incorporate that experience somehow and knew I wanted to do this with the help of a successful franchise. Thus began the search for a suitable partner.

Enter RTV (Real Tour Vision).

Jason LaVanture, the founder of RTV, answered all my questions thoroughly. RTV waited patiently with no pressure for many months for me to make an informed decision. After looking over all the information I chose to invest and become a full service virtual tour provider with RTV. They are the largest virtual tour company and property marketing network in the world. They have the best virtual tour software, property marketing training and technical support. They even hold many national and International contracts with hotel chains which feeds business back into the virtual tour dealer network. How cool is that!!??

With Real Tour Vision servicing over sixty thousand real estate agents worldwide and over 1500 virtual tour providers in his network, Jason knows what services and functionality are needed on a local or national level. I am very excited to be moving forward in my new Harrison virtual tour business business venture, Virtual Tour Success, with RTV at my side. I can’t wait to be up in full force and to be providing my own clients with the best the industry has to offer in marketing and solutions to their problems.

The competition in the Real Estate Industry is fierce now. Quality virtual tours will give my clients the edge not only at the local level, but at the national and international levels. To give your property the edge contact Virtual Tour Success today."

"I have been with Real Tour Vision for almost 5 years now, when I started searching for Virtual Tour Software and equipment to purchase, I was blown away at the quality of their system. With most companies it seems like they are at the top of the game one minute and then something better comes out. I have to say, Real Tour Vision is always making improvements and staying on the cutting edge of virtual tour technology. To date their Virtual Tour software is still the very BEST! To all the Staff at RTV thanks for always making my Virtual Tours look GREAT! And making my job so much easier."

"Dear RTV,

As you know we JUST got started in Jan 2010 and we wanted to let you know that we are very happy. It seems to me that we are getting quite a value for the money we paid to RTV. Even if there were no virtual tour software involved, just being associated with RTV has greatly enhanced our personal and business skills in the short time we have been dealers. As far as I'm concerned, the tools you provide to enhance the dealership are far more advanced than anything else we have evaluated before making our decision to sign up. Specifically, your classes in SEO, your classes in Social Networking, your marketing tools and presentations and your webinars make it very easy to compete here in Arizona where the market is extremely crowded.

Your webinars from both The FORMULA and The IMAGE are something we look forward to on Tuesday afternoons. There is always a take-away from each webinar that we implement the next day. Additionally, we have found Ben Knorr to be a great communicator of technical knowledge which isn't a very easy thing to do. He is equally skilled in software and in photography. Everything is laid out perfectly and creates a good foundation for understanding new ideas and techniques.

Finally we must say that the RTV virtual tour software is put together so easy to use. We are excited and hope to become a very successful high end dealer of your product as well as high end photographers for the Tour Track system. You will need to sign up Brad Feinberg Photography, LLC for the Inner Circle because we are addicted to improving our business through the model you have established. Once again, thank you very much for all of the help and the transfer of knowledge that you are providing."

"RTV had me up and running with my Virtual Tour business so quickly it was amazing. They literally had everything ready to go for me within hours of purchasing their compete virtual tour builder kit. I will certainly say that the virtual tour software and hardware is very easy to understand. With the helpful and courteous staff, I got set up and trained in under 2 hours. I am training my first employee in a week and my virtual tour company is already growing. Also, I am doing my first tours for several realtors in a matter of weeks of me getting started. The support is great, the product is great. You can't go wrong with RTV's virtual tour software and system!"

"I've been creating virtual tours with the RTV Virtual Tour Software now since 2002. RTV far exceeds the competition in Virtual Tours. The one thing that stands out is Quality. I researched many virtual tour systems and could not find one to match the clear and crisp tours of RTV. I am also very impressed with the RTV support. From the sales department to the support department; my questions and concerns are answered quickly and with professionalism. The turn around time is unmatched. My clients cannot believe how quickly they receive their tours. RTV tours are easy to use and navigate. Realtors® love the tours because they receive all the links they need, especially the MLS version. The tour software is user friendly. With a few hours of training; you will be on your way to building the highest quality tours on the market today. I've had a great time building a future with RTV."
