"I have been relying heavily on RTV's virtual tour software now for almost 5 years. I could not be happier! When I started searching for Virtual Tour Software and panorama hardware to purchase, I was very confused since there were so many direction that one could go in from one shot lens systems, to fisheye panoramas, and so on and so forth. When I finally found RTV, virtual tour software system I must say that my wife and I were blown away at the quality of their system, amazing support services and free training they offer their customers. With most virtual tour companies it seems like they are at the top of the game one minute and then something better comes out. I have to say, RTV is always making improvements and staying on the cutting edge of virtual tour technology. To date their virtual reality software is still the very BEST! To all the Staff at RTV thanks for always making my 360 tours look GREAT! And making my job so much easier."

"When I was looking for a virtual tour company to go with, I went online looking for a quality virtual tour software product that could create flash panormas and 360 tours. RTV had what I wanted and so much more. I never expected their training services and 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 software 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 up a virtual tour company 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 virtual tour 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" in the first place (and took all my Springfield virtual customers with me!)
Getting started . . .
I started part-time basically. I had one "big-hitter" realtor and was doing all of her 360 tours on her high-end listings. Other agents would see her virtual tours and want 360 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's virtual tour software and system was the best decision I could have ever made!"

"Hey Everyone at RTV !!! You guys rock. I can't think of any other virtual tour 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 360 tour businesses into successful, competing virtual reality 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 virtual tours 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've been creating virtual tours with the RTV's Virtual Tour Software now since 2002. RTV far exceeds the competition in Virtual Tours. The one thing that stands out is Quality. I researched SO many virtual tour software 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 360 tours. RTV's virtual tours are easy to use and navigate. Realtors® love them because they receive all the links they need, especially the MLS version. The virtual tour software is user friendly and makes flash panoramas very quickly. With a few hours of training; you will be on your way to building the highest quality flash panoramas and virtual tours on the market today. I've had a great time building a future with RTV and you will too!"
