I am the National Marketing Manager for Real Tour Vision Full Service and In-House Dealers and I chose this opportunity to help RTV small business owners because I truly believe in the technology and the strength of the company. Notice I said 'small business owners' and not photographers. One of the unique attributes of our Real Tour Vision dealers is that each and every one of them owns their own company. So, when you choose a Real Tour Vision full-service virtual tour provider you are not just dealing with a photographer, you are dealing with a locally owned and operated company. Currently Real Tour Vision is the largest WORLDWIDE virtual tour company with over 1500 providers in 27 countries around the world.
What Makes Real Tour Vision Your Best Choice for Online Marketing of Your Listings?
Lets start with a few questions.
What Do We Mean By Interactive Virtual Tour?
The 360 degree interactive virtual tours provided by Real Tour Vision virtual tour companies allow viewers to click on tour 'Hot-Spots' (which are navigation buttons ON the tour itself) and then navigate the business or real estate listing without the use of drop-down menus or distracting links, like you would find on other lesser quality virtual tours.
Why would an interactive 360 degree virtual tour be better than a slideshow or video tour ?
Interactive virtual tours combine the power of an online virtual experience with the ‘point-and-click' functionality of the internet. On-tour ‘hot-spots' enable viewers and interested buyers to control the entire virtual experience without ever leaving the viewing area.
Our proprietary technology also allows us to offer 2D & 3D floorplans that enable viewers to click on any room on the floorplan and instantly view that room. With other types of marketing tools, your viewers just sit and watch, whereas with an interactive tour or 2D/3D floor plan, they can control their own viewing experience.

What about marketing? Do you post tours on Realtor.com?
A virtual tour is an Internet marketing tool, without being actually marketing on the Internet, it is nothing more than a wasted advertising expense. After your tour is completed, your Real Tour Vision Provider will not only be able to post your tour on Realtor.com, but will automatically distribute your virtual tour to major Internet portal sites.
Everything is about marketing your listings, the more successful you become as a real estate agent, the more successful the RTV Dealer Network becomes. This results in even more marketing for our dealers your tours, your listings, and all of this happens automatically when you choose a Real Tour Vision Provider as your marketing partner.
