The BEST Billboard: According to Seth Godin

A recent Blog entry from marketing expert Seth Godin about the key elements of what makes a great billboard has caused us here at EXiT Central Texas to feel a little swell of pride (beyond that which we always feel being a part of the EXiT System).

According to Seth, there are several things that make advertising via the outdoor poster medium more than an "act of faith"... but a good trust building exercise for your brand.

Here are a few key attributes from his list the billboard must have that we at EXiT Realty naturally accomplish every time one of our hundreds of billboards goes up throughout our international market:

1. "Next exit"

2. Take action now

3. Credible promise

EXiT Realty knew what they were doing when they chose the name "EXiT". Not only is it truly an exit from the way real estate has traditionally been done but it is the most recognized and used sign in the world.

So, why not take this EXiT from conventional real estate and into your future! Call Dion McCormick now to find out how! Call the regional owner, Dion McCormick, at 512-203-7801 or email to: dion@exittexas.com

Exit Realty Central Texas continues to contribute to the community and the greater good of our planet with their latest move to a greener advertising medium.

That's right, EXiT Realty Central Texas goes green with their new ECO-Poster Billboards throughtout the state. The switch from the traditional paper billboard advertisement will help to keep 150 million pounds of waste from going to the landfill in just one year.

The company responsible for bringing such a green friendly advertising option to businesses in Central Texas is CG Cable System. Here is an excerpt from their product line listing some of the benefits and more environmentally sensitive points of using the new vinyl poster:

"ECO-posters are 100% recyclable and better for the environment - the previous 30-sheet posters contributed about 150 million pounds annually to the nation's landfills. ECO-posters also maintain their visible integrity longer, 90 days as opposed to 30 days with the previous posters. Other benefits include:·No flagging or peeling with these single-sheet executions·No more glue and paper - the new posters attach directly to the structure ·Visual quality is comparable to vinyl executions ·Unaffected by weather"

Off The News Wire: EXiT Realty Homevets is Growing

Killeen, Texas (Grassroots Newswire) April 24, 2009 -- Exit Homevets Realty kicks off billboard campaign. In celebration of their continued growth in this real estate market, Exit Homevets Realty kicked off a local billboard campaign that simply states, EXIT Realty is Growing.
Despite the slow down in the housing market, Exit Homevets Realty has seen their business continue to grow. One of the biggest reasons that our company has grown over last year is that we have attracted more agents that understand real estate is a career and not a part time adventure said the broker and owner, Jose Segarra. People hiring a real estate professional to market their homes are demanding their agent to be trained and have an understanding of what is really happening in today’s market; they want a lot more than just someone who puts a For Sale sign in front of their home and enters it into the Multiple Listing Service (MLS).
The way we have been able to attract great agent is through the training programs that we put them through. It is a live interactive program that is taught be some of real estate's top trainers and they come to our office "Live" thorough video conferences.
To kick off what we expect to be a great year, we have started a billboard campaign with several billboards throughout the local area which simply says EXIT REALTY IS GROWING.

EXIT Regional Refresher Day 2

Day 2 for the EXIT Regional Refresher was a great day. Bob Mckinnon gave an excellent presentation to start the day. Then, he led a series of regional owners presentations to the overall group. It was fascinating to see the depth of the capabilities of the regional owners. The other aspect was the topic was the same, but the diversity of approaches was amazing.

Angel Tucker provided a training session on DISC personality analysis in the afternoon session. The only negative thing I have to say is that it was too short! Angel (playing with pain because of a broker foot) led the group in a focused discussion on the DISC attributes and the impact of them on the sales process. It was a fascinating discussion.

Christina Ireborg gave an update on Habitat For Humanity and the impact the money that EXIT Realty is pumping into that organization is having. As EXIT Realty grows, the number and frequency of the Habitat builds sponsored by EXIT is growing rapidly.

Steve and Christina Ireborg.

Tonight was a free night so Alan Dirks (EXIT Minnesota and EXIT Wisconsin) and I took a trip around the memorials in Washington. It has been a few years and I forgot how breathtaking the memorials are. The weight of history and the realization of the sacrifices of those that came before have an incredible impact. From the words of Abraham Lincoln to the Vietnam Memorial Wall.....you cannot visit here and not be affected.

I look forward to returning later this year for the convention to spend more time exploring Washington and soaking up the history of this incredible nation.

p.s. More pictures will be posted when I get back to Texas.
