'Summer afternoon' - to me those have always been
the two most beautiful words in the English language.

Summer is SIZZLING with our HOT NEW AA Website

Check us out! It was about time for a badly needed facelift on our ADVANCED ACCESS company site, so we gave our talented design team a challenge: to create an ADVANCED (no pun intended) design utilizing state-of-the-art technology, which is quick loading and displays on most browsers on the Internet. The result? A dramatic and eye catching website with modern multi-level FLASH animation, and a wealth of information about our products and services.

Congratulations to Jerry Smith, the graphic artist behind our dazzling new design, and to the other members of our gifted design team for their collaborative efforts to give us a website we are PROUD to call our own.

Please note that we are still partially "under construction", so check back with us often as our wonderful new creation continues to unfold.

Invest in your SUCCESS with our
NEW Personal COACHING Programs

It's been proven that implementing an effective Internet marketing presence can result in verifiable monetary rewards. However, as a busy, hard working REALTOR®, sometimes it's difficult to complete the tasks necessary to promote your website on the Internet.

Many of our clients have asked if we offered extra "hand holding" in addition to the marketing support we already provide through our weekly marketing tips, monthly newsletters, and your own personal Account Executive. In response to your requests, we are pleased to announce an exciting new Coaching program.

What is COACHING? Most of you are already familiar with the concept of coaching in the real estate industry. Coaching is a collaborative partnership between you and your personal advisor, with a focus on developing a realistic plan and taking action. Your personal coach will set specific phone appointments and give you certain "assignments," designed to assist you in establishing the tools, skills and habits required to bring RESULTS.

Here's How it Works: The program begins with identifying your short-term and long-term goals, your vision and what you want to achieve in the near future. With our expertise in Internet Marketing, your coach will then set up a specific plan for SUCCESS with your ADVANCED ACCESS website. The program is for six months, with 8 personal coaching telephone sessions, and for the remainder of the contract period we are available for any "hotline" calls.

Every step of the plan is specific to your own needs and desires. Our commitment is to identify the most effective solutions and to give you specific direction for actions that will maximize your efforts and results.

Here's what coaching clients are saying….

"It was helpful to have a coach understand the business, not just the technology. Your insight was very valuable and I felt like you always took my needs into account. Thanks for the excellent advice and instruction, and I would recommend you to anyone!"

Lora Herring - Keller Williams Realty

"…Your professional expertise and knowledge of our industry has been very instrumental in the recent explosion of my business. I am also grateful that you are flexible with all of life's many details - your style has a unique personal touch. You have helped me regain focus and direction and my income has tripled since we began just a few short weeks ago. Since I would recommend your coaching services to any potential client, please don't hesitate to use me as a reference."

Connie Lee Fraley - Scottsdale, AZ

Results are Guaranteed. We guarantee that you will see RESULTS during the six-month period of your personal coaching sessions, or your money will be refunded. Your coach will continue to work with you until you achieve success - failure is not an option.

And the price? Similar coaching programs range from $2,500 -$3,000. We are pleased to offer a SPECIAL INTRODUCTORY RATE for ADVANCED ACCESS valued clients of $1,795.00 for our six-month comprehensive program.

For more details about our coaching program, please call or e-mail your Account Executive, or contact us via email. We will be happy to answer your questions. You are also invited to check out our new website, under the Special Programs section, for more detailed information.

How 'Bout that Summer Housing Market?

From an article by Blanche Evans in the "Agent News" section of the online Realty Times, according to the National Association of REALTORS®, homes are increasing in price, despite an economic slowdown. Fueled by low interest rates and relatively low unemployment, home sales are still selling at a near-record pace, prompting Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan to attribute housing to stabilizing the downturn of other economic factors. But there are also early warnings of a possible housing recession.

According to real estate professionals across the country, home inventories, along with prices, are on the rise. Price, terms and condition of the property become more important as the market changes.

As the market changes, it's more important than ever to maximize your Internet presence to ensure you keep that "competitive edge." The success of your business is OUR business. It's personal to us, so be sure to call your Account Executive if you have any questions or requests.
