The company managing the advertising for the group pictured on the right have simply copied Macquarie’s logo, creative, and general formatting. There’s generally no rule against leaning on recognition, but it will always come at the expense of your own brand. It’s always a shame to see such a lazy advertising effort (the copy, landing page, and everything that comes
Shad of the Day, 11th October 2024. It’s been a while since I’ve posted a Shad. After the first couple of thousand I started to bore myself with the repetition. However, while we’ve had an impact on dodgy pay-per-lead leadgen, this has shifted many into selling their ‘magic broker flow pipeline accelerator unicorn’ systems, all of which aren’t worth having
This is a note for clients, and it’s important. As per our deprecation schedule, and in line with Telstra’s own retirement timeline, we have ceased all support for V2 of their API and diverted all functionality to V3. This change introduces some significant updates and a large number of improvements. Pictured is the Voicedrop panels which have seen some updates,
This is a very important note for clients. You’ll be hearing more from us via email as recent and pending Yabber changes will impact everybody. The number of brokers that use more than one CRM, or multiple pieces of software, is quite staggering, and any tool or process that duplicates data will impact productivity and potentially compromises compliance. This has
I saw a post on LinkedIn a few weeks back where a broker was celebrating the fact that he was working his weekend in his pyjamas. Each to their own, I guess, but the same weekend was very different for me. Starting on a Saturday morning, I supported four of my brokers and property guys with a seminar in SW
The single most significant change we’ve introduced to our website framework in the last few years is the inclusion of full-featured Property Listings. The module will make its way out of a lengthy Beta sometime soon and find its way into our standard website and Elementor plugins. The Property module is significant and unique in that the effectiveness of the
We uploaded videos to a client YouTube channel yesterday, and with a single block of just four hours with us the channel is now full of content and looks fantastic. We’ll chop up the primary video to create a further 100 snippets or so that will eventually find their way onto social channels. Having video on a YouTube channel is
Note to clients. We’ve updated the authentication system on your website as a result of some partner discussions last week (that moved the goalposts in a very beneficial direction). Yabber manages multiple groups of contacts, such as clients, partners, introducers, referrers, property groups, and so on, and the new system will update session permissions based on user groups and sub-groups.
The former Chiltern of the Bank of Australasia was designed by Anketell Matthew Henderson of Reed & Barnes Architects and constructed in 1877. The building was a fully operational branch of the Bank of Australasia until 1943 when it closed and became a private residence. The Bank building has also been an Italian Restaurant, the Mulberry Tree Tearooms/B&B and The
Meeting with Terry and Dan from nMB. Always a pleasure hangimg out with these guys. You have to look very hard for people that are more dedicated to their brokers.
This is a note for clients. We’ve added a ton of features to the website framework over the last few weeks – pictured is just a few of them. Far from exhaustive, the most recent update includes an autocomplete address form that immediately redirects to a full property page, the same for an emergency search engine, and a post-type based
I spent just four hours with a WA broker yesterday, and he shot what might be a record 30+ videos in that short time. Take after take was fluent, inspired, and without error – it was seriously impressive. I’m very clear with business owners – the video we shoot won’t have much of an impact on anything unless we do
