BEFORE MLS LISTING

You have a listing! Amazing! Please review our checklist below before putting it on the MLS. Of the checklist below, potentially the most important piece is high quality, professional photography. Make sure to share these images with Stephanie and Justus so they may enhance your website listing, post to socials, and assist with any marketing materials.

CHRISTIE'S MARKETING SUITE

Christiesrealestate.net has multiple programs built-in that can assist you in marketing your properties and asserting your personal brand. If you scroll down to "Quick Access," you will see Creative Studio, C-Suite, Brand Boutique, Co-op Ad Portal, and C-Social. 

  • Creative Studio
    • The newest addition to Christie's resource gallery, Creative Studio offers templates and guides for post cards, listing brochures, flyers, digital flyers, presentation materials,  business cards, stationery, gatefolds, etc.. From here, you can create materials with appropriate branding, fonts, and colors.

    • Similar to Creative Studio, C-Suite is a tool for you to create your own content. This resource offers assistance with e-cards, brochures, newsletters, post cards, listing presentations, stationery, fact sheets, and videos.
    • Some materials will overlap with Creative Studio, but the interface and editing ability does differ a bit. If you're trying to make a piece of material that overlaps between the two, it's recommended to tour the offerings of both to see if there's a format you prefer.

EMAIL SIGNATURES

BASE SIGNATURE - COPY AND PASTE THIS TO START CREATING A NEW ONE. 

You will need to adjust the hyperlink to your own personal GTB site; the base file is just set to go to the generic GTB page.  If you want the social handles to link to your personal profiles, you’ll need to adjust those links as well.

Please do not adjust the base file.  Only make changes once you copy and paste under the “Personalized Individual Agent Signatures” section.  It's important to make your edits within this file versus in the email signature editor in Gmail, as the formatting will change if you're editing in Gmail. You want to get your signature prepared in the docs file to copy and paste into the Gmail signature section. Please feel free to leave your signature in that section in case you need to make adjustments in the future.

PREFERRED PHOTOGRAPHERS

All listings must have high-quality professional photography per Christie's regulations. Please use this list of approved photographers, or receive management approval of a new photographer if not on the list.

Once assets are received, email to justus@gotothebeach.com and stephanie@gotothebeach.com.

PROJECTIONS

For listings that can allow rentals, it's in your best interest to get projections from a few companies to either put in the MLS listing or to pass along to interested buyer agents. Please be proactive and reach out to multiple Rental Managers to provide more insights and information and have on hand should potential buyers be interested in renting.

Please note that Benchmark also offers an Absentee Owner program for Buyers who still want someone checking in on things, but either can't or don't want to rent.

For your convenience, we have listed a few suggestions for requesting rental projections. You're welcome to use any company you choose, we have just included these as options.
