Communicating virtually can sometimes be a challenge! In today's technology driven real estate market the more efficient I can be at communicating, and explaining is vital to productivity, so yes, I'm always on the look-out for tools and techniques, and I found another one that I love, and finally put to good use this past week. The Jing Project. This free program allows me to visually record my computer screen, and my voice at the same time allowing me to send the video via email, blog etc.
I have clients that are a Top Producing Team of 5, a Mega Team that have joined together at the first of the year. Very busy as usual, communication to all 5 team members can yes, be my ultimate challenge! Our goal this year was to get the team to start blogging on their individual and team blogs. But, not having as much time to sit and walk them through this new concept in person left me trying to find a way to walk them through posting, logging in, adding photos, media etc. Bring in the Jing Project!
First of all...a little about me. I like tools that are free and have short learning curve. I signed up quickly for a free account, downloaded the software, took the video tour, and that was it! I was able to record a "blogging tutorial", with my voice, and send it on its way to all five members of the team!
Because of this tool, I was able to communicate directly and efficiently...and more importantly..VIRTUALLY!

Skye~ Thanks it pretty cool:)
Sharon~ I think I will:) I was going to earlier but with the tech difficulties earlier, I quit earlier:)
Isn't this great? I have a similar program with my new Mac and I am loving it. I have done a series of "how-to" videos for a client as she has also got a new Mac and has needed a little direction working in the Mac environment. It has actually help me a lot too.
Great find Laura. Have fun with it. ;-)
Laura,
Thanks for sharing. How is your VA biz going?

Jim
Hi Jen~ I will:) For some reason this is one program I'm glad to have running in the background..just in case.
Hi Jim~ You are welcome! The business is busy as ever! How about you?
Mara~ Totally love user friendly! In fact I ahve to be able to grasp it from the home page otherwise I'll look else ware.
Laura...THANKS!!!!! for the tip on the Jing. I've been looking for a screen recorder to incorporate into my eVideo eMails. Below is a sample of my eVideo eMails I send agents and potential prospects when I have a new listing, or people that call off the sign. I also incorporate the same program to present videos on my website, but needed a screen record function to fancy things up. Let me know if you like this...
Laura:
Thanks I downloaded it now I have to get time to play with it.
Thanks for sharing. I've been needing something just like this, I can't wait to check it out.
