As part of a plan to enhance their relationship with real estate professionals in 2011, Hacienda Matapalo – the most sought after gated community on Costa Rica's South Pacific Coast – today announced they have partnered with Agent Shield, Inc. to provide Realtors with free tools to help them market, sell and receive credit for their efforts.
"This gives our referring parties an extra level of comfort," said Hacienda Matapalo Vice President of Sales and Investments Michael Starkey. "By having an extra level of tracking and protection for their clients, Realtors will be more comfortable sending leads directly to our Web site because they know they can track them."
Starkey said that while agents who may already work with Hacienda Matapalo know about their impeccable reputation, becoming part of the Agent Shield network was especially important for those agents who have not previously worked with them.
"For real estate agents, their most important assets are their customers," explained Agent Shield Vice President and co-founder Lu Doan. "The Agent Shield patented technology creates a better connection between real estate professionals and developers. Before Agent Shield was created real estate agents would not consider linking to a development's Web site for fear of losing leads; there was not an effective method of tracking the procuring source of the lead. Agent Shield is designed to protect Realtors while enabling developers to increase their outreach and ultimately sales."
Agent Shield, Inc., the creators of Agent Shield, has more than 7,000 Realtors in 25 countries in their network.
Now that Agent Shield is in place on the Hacienda Matapalo Web site, the company's new program for Realtors is taking shape. The company has scheduled a free Web-based seminar on January 18 at 6 p.m. ET (and any time on-demand) to discuss the new program. The online seminar will be hosted by Starkey and joined by Agent Shield's Doan, who will explain the benefits of his company’s application.
"We're looking forward to connecting with many new Realtors in the New Year," said Starkey. "With infrastructure construction fully underway, this is an exciting time for us and we believe once more real estate agents are onboard with us, it will be an exciting time for them too."
Realtors may register for the free eSeminar here.
