One of the most important points to having a virtual tour is that they are not used solely to market a listing, property or a business. Virtual Tours are used to market YOU.

Always include a CD of one or more of your full-featured virtual tours in your listing package or have at your business as a handout to guests. Show prospective buyers HOW you are going to market their property before saying a word and give a keepsake out to people who visit your establishment. Handing a prospective seller a package that includes brochures, marketing materials, DVDs and CDs says much more to a seller than any words you could ever speak. Handing out a full-featured INTERACTIVE virtual tour puts you ahead of competition.
