Testimonials and success stories.
Among the most of any service on the Internet. If you are not connecting
to do deals then contact us immediately. We find there are things you
are probably not doing that can be the difference between you doing
deals and making money, or making zero. For example print out the
Marketing Plan in the Resource Center. Call us anytime to chat.
Executive Member Newsletter
There are over 1.5 billion people as
users of the Internet. There are over 250,000,000 people on the Internet in North
America. In a recent study, according to the National Association of
Realtors, 71% will search real estate on the Internet.
96% will search web sites for listings. Make sure you
have a web site with thousands of residential and commercial listings on
it so that YOU can generate calls from the Internet. |
Executive members should read No. 9
in the Resource Center, How To Promote Your Web Site. Doing referrals and
direct business is directly dependent on the number of leads you get.
The number of leads you get is dependent on the traffic you get on YOUR
web site. You can increase traffic by reading a secret competitive report
in the Resource Center, Number 9. These ideas can help you become number 1
or at least in the top ten in your area. Or read Segment 5 in the Training
Videos How To Promote Your Web Site. We only share this with Executive
Members. It is a major competitive advantage. We provide Search Engine
Optimization concepts and ideas. We attend World Search Engine
conventions with google, yahoo, msn and others. |
Members should not delete their listings when sold or
leased, you should mark them sold as there is now a sold database. Modify your
listing, change the Status to SOLD, type (SOLD) at the beginning of the Subject
Line and modify your record. This activity alone shows you are active in
the marketplace and can generate calls from people who want a successful busy
person to deal with.
Questionnaire
to Members If you want to do more
deals, working smarter not harder, or if you have not done a deal yet and wonder
why, take this questionnaire. It is concepts and ideas that will make you money
in your service to the public. Many are missing doing deals and do not even
realize it. This is another checklist to sharpen your awareness of how to handle
important information that can make you money. Information is the gold on the
Internet. Learn how to mine that gold.

- There is no requirement that you mark
your listings as sold and if you prefer to just delete a listing when it is sold
it is up to you. The contribution to the information knowledge base and
the contacts generated however should not be underestimated to benefit
you. May we encourage you to place all your solds in this center. Your feedback
appreciated.
- Over 100 listings have been marked sold in the last
several months, almost a deal every 2 days! This is not counting all
the ones that have been sold but were simply deleted. Estimated to be
about another 100. There is no reason why every single member should
have successful transactions no matter where in the world you are
located! That is our goal for you. If you have not had a deal, please
contact us now for a review of how and when you are placing information. Ultimately
it is your responsibility to place information in an effective and timely
manner. It can be the difference between making money and making .
. . nothing. Contact us now for a review of
your information handling expertise. A short training session may be
in order to improve your skill talents!
- This is a major value added service you offer to your
clients and prospects. Provide the very best for them.

Tricks to Benefit You - Virus
Will you get a virus on your computer? Does your car get dirty?
As we get more dependent on computers as a tool for handling information,
think of this, if my computer crashed today or got stolen, will I be in
trouble? What will be the stress and pressure on time to reproduce things? What
is it worth to prevent an absolute catastrophe of computer loss?
You have to clean your system! You have to protect your system!
Do you do regular maintenance on your car? You need to do regular
maintenance on your computer.
Visit the Resource Center today and read Virus for
our Recommendation. Links are provided for Alerts, Hot Topics and the latest
Security Updates.
News
Everyone in the real estate industry should read and study this news page.
Protect yourself against scams, fraud, and more on virus's etc. as well as news
information.
Only Executive Members can place Have and Want Listings in
Database 1 that is
receiving the over 1,500,000 hits per month and distribution to extensive EMail List
Servers. You will need to have an identifier and a password.
Principals and/or non members of the service should click on
Database 2 FSBO area in the top frame
and place ads there now free. You can join where we do not have a member
in your area. Details.
Executive Members
You can search members in many ways. Some ways used are by zip or postal code,
city, specialty, market area. You could just place the first two characters of a zip
or postal code and find all the members in that area. May I suggest you sort the
results by Home Page.
Log In
May we suggest you log in and expire your password in one year. That way you do
not have to enter your password and identifier every time you log in. However if you
are in an office where anyone and everyone uses the computer you may wish to expire your
password immediately or only use it for an hour at a time. You need to be fully
logged in to take full advantage of all the services. For instance if you are not
logged in and you subscribe to Free EMailing List Services you will not see the FSBO USA
or Canada. This service sends you copies of FSBO listings within minutes of them
being added to the service.
What does the Remember Login Id checkbox do?
If checked, the "Remember Login ID" checkbox when you
click Login on ICIWorld's Member Management page will automatically log your
account into ICIWorld when you return in the future.
This is a good idea if you're the only person using the
computer.
It is a bad idea if it is a publicly
accessible computer, or if you're sharing the computer with other folks.
Notes:
- Occasionally ICIWorld might seem to forget that
you've checked the "Remember Login ID" checkbox- this is because the cookie
that remembers your account information is set to expire after 1 hour. If this
happens to you, log in again with your ICIWorld username and password (and
check the box if you wish).
- You can set the login ID to expire after one week, or
one month, or one year. That way you do not have to log in every time you use
the service.
Renewals
Renewals are $240 for eight months, but you receive a four month bonus when paying the
full amount prior to your renewal date. Early payment bonus option is therefore a
one year renewal.
Once your membership is expired it is $319 to start
again.

renew membership.
Add/Modify/Delete Have/Want Listing
Cookies
A new feature recently added is the ability of the service to remember your password
and id.
It does this by placing two cookies on your computer that contain your id and password.
However if your browser does not allow cookies this is not possible and your browsing
experience on our service is not enhanced. We suggest you enable cookies or at the
very least "approve cookies before accepting cookies."
In Netscape, click on Edit, Preferences and Advanced. You will see the cookies
options.
In Internet Explorer, click on View, Options, Advanced. You will see the cookies
options.
We personally recommend to "approve cookies before accepting." That way
you can prevent some sites that you may not want to allow from placing these things
misusing cookies.
Subject
This is perhaps the most important aspect of our service that you should know. It is
the subject line that you design that is circulated throughout the world and locally by
way of 14 other major circulation treatments. Many people today are just too busy to
follow up on vague or missing information. If they are not interested, they will not be
reading your full page of information. If you can trigger interest then they may read your
full page of information and follow up on things. It really should read like a mini
classified ad.
Suggestions and Tips for the Subject
- Your subject line should have a minimum of four ingredients:
Area, Type, Price and/or Size, Sizzle.
- Make sure you place the key words for your listing. Whatever keywords you place in the
subject is what people can search for in the "Search Subject Line By Key Words"
option for searching. This includes an area.
- Some short forms are
- sf for sq.ft. ie: 40,000sf
- M for million ie: $2.5M
- K for thousand ie: $785K
- Don't get carried away with short forms but use of the common ones is quite in order. It
will provide more space in the subject for information that might trigger a call for you.
Location
Always place the city first. Whenever someone searches and has them displayed by
Location the first word you type will be the location in alphabetical order.
Since this is a public database we suggest you never place an address. I personally
recommend you never place an address, not even for your real estate board listings.
People will try to go direct to the owner and of course in the majority of cases this is
undesirable for many reasons including bothering the owner and/or tenants. Normally there
is a method for showing and the real estate broker or salesperson in agreement with the
owner has a prearranged method that is convenient and considerate of all parties for
conducting the showings.
Since 65% of the hits are coming from the USA and the rest of the world, may we suggest
you reference your community with a reference to a major center such as: 2hr. to Toronto.
Type Description
Always place the key word at the beginning. This is because people will
do a sort on this field. Try this, search Businesses in Ontario and sort
by Type Description and you will see what I mean.
There is a strategy involved here and here it is.
We suggest that you place all your photos on YOUR OWN
WEB SITE, then on ICIWorld in the listing that you place, you enter the Internet
address of the listing that is on YOUR WEB SITE. This is a link to the
page of information on YOUR WEB SITE, You place this link in the Internet
Links Box in the form for adding listings on ICIWorld.
- You should have your own web site. If you supply photos to us, we have to charge since
we get charged for space and transfer of files. However if you place photos on your site
you will never be charged since it is most likely you will never exceed the maximums as we
do.
- take pictures with your camera
- transfer them to your computer
- upload them to the listing on YOUR WEB SITE
- Call anytime for other solutions.
You can have the picture appear on ICIWorld OR you can
link to the photos and page of information details on YOUR WEB SITE.
- There is an Internet Links box in the Have Sheet
Form.
- You will place the link to the photo there.
- You can place two kinds of links:
- You can display the photo while people are reading the message. You can experiment with
the size of the photo.
- You can display the word Photo as a hypertext link in blue for instance. A person would
click on the photo and then wait while the picture loads. If they are interested in your
listing it is expected that they would very much want to see the photo and wait.
- or better yet place a link to the page of
information on YOUR WEB SITE and describe it as: Click here for more photos
and details.
- Other links like sketches, plans, layouts, artists renderings, surveys, plot plans,
aerial views, supportive links such as demographics, etc. can and should be placed.
- Do not place your home page or email links in the Internet Links Box. You already should
have built your links for these items in your Membership Data and they will already and
automatically be inserted in every one of your messages. If you change your email address
under Modify Member Data, it will change it on all your listings on the service.
Owner Client Details
Many in real estate think they are selling bricks and mortar. However what you are
really doing is helping people accomplish their goals and objectives. The real
estate is a means to an end and when you fully understand that, you will become better at
helping people solve their problems and reach their aspirations.
For this you need to develop relationships with the people you deal with. Just
how well you know your client will be determined by just how well you can fill in a Have
or Want Sheet Client Details. Some of the terms and definitions in Owner Client Details will help.
My Listings
Use this to modify or delete your personal listing inventory. May we suggest you
re circulate your information every 30-45 days. They will receive the full
circulation of all the list servers. If you modify your listing before thirty days
they do not go through the Free EMail List Servers. People do not like to see duplicates
one right after the other even though there may be a small change. If it is
important, enter the listing as a brand new listing and then it goes through the whole
system again.
If you wonder why you do not receive calls, it could be that you have not modified your
listings recently. Some people work the top half of the database, get so busy they
do not even get down to the bottom where your information might be. Secondly you do
not get the benefit of new additions to the distribution that is occurring every day.
Manual
For offices that are entering multiple member listings, do not log in every time.
Just place the persons id and password in per listing. You can go faster by
opening multiple windows of your browser. After sending a listing instead of waiting
doing nothing, send the listing but then open another window and search or enter another
listing while the first one is being sent. If you open one browser window in the top
2/3 of your screen and another browser window in the bottom 2/3 of your screen you can see
results happening in the background while your are typing in the foreground. You are
now going twice as fast as anyone else on the internet by doing two things at once.
Search By Member
Whatever listings come up when searching your name here, can be a link on your home
page! Yes you can have a link on your home page that says "Listings" or
"Commercial Database" "My Commercial Inventory" etc. It will
pull your personal listings off ICI World and display them on the screen of the viewer.
You can get this link by going to www.iciworld.net
and clicking on Individual Members in the left frame and finding your name and clicking on
the word listings. That's the link.
Change Password
Do not use a bank password. Unless the site is a secure site that has something
called encryption, you should never use a bank password.
Change Data
Modify all your personal information here. When you do, it changes in all your
listings automatically.
Resource Center
Almost all members say this is worth more than the price of the service itself.
It is doorways and links to almost every major site in the world for commercial real
estate, personal and business purposes.
Banner Stats
For anyone who runs banner ads on the site you can access the banner stats anytime.
This is very useful to monitor your ongoing campaign, ie: how many impressions, how
many click throughs to your web site. If you see click throughs and are not getting
sales, then it is a function of your web site that has to change!
No Frames
You may like this better as you will have more room for adding/modifying/deleting
information for instance. Try it. Click on frames to return.
With the global
money markets in crisis and financing tightening all over the world,
and/or becoming more expensive, there is another option to help facilitate
the trading of real estate.

Every
single Executive Member and our reader public everywhere in the world should be
aware of this:
See
article in the Toronto Star. This year's NFL season arrived with a
twist for millions of computer users, who discovered emails in their inboxes
advertising free "online game trackers" and links to an official-looking website
adorned with the National Football League's logo. Fans who tried to
download the program from the compromised website unwittingly infected their
computers with a version of the Storm Worm . . .See
article in the Toronto Star.
See
Tom Brady making some passes. If you can not see and hear this video fairly
quickly, your computer and Internet service needs upgrading.
We recommend every single Executive Member have a paid
up version of Norton or McAfee software to protect their computers. It is one of
our goals to make our members the most aware in the industry about these kinds
of problems in order to protect themselves and others. See: ICIWorld
