Market Your Listings and Yourself with Stylized Announcements.
What are Announcements?
Announcements are stylized and formatted emails that you
can send to other agents, clients, leads, or any other
individual in your TMS Contact Manager. You can send an
Announcement to one person or thousands of people at the
same time. All you need to do is select the recipients
from your TMS Contact Manager.
Sending an Announcement is a great way to not only
market a property but also to market yourself. You show
a higher level of professionalism not only to your
client but also to your fellow agents.
