From WGAN-TV Live at 5 on Thursday, 18 February 2021 (video above)1. Differentiate the real estate agent (marketing yourself)2. COVID: Fewer in person showing appointments available (due to social distancing)3. Showcase properties4. 1st showings are done online5. Sell for more money6. Sell faster7. Many examples to show prospects8. Save everyone time (if not the right property for the buyer): seller not leaving the house unnecessarily9. Safe way for prospective buyer to tour the house10. Sight-unseen offers11. Enable the homeowner to share the virtual tour on their Facebook and with their friends12. Steers the listing presentation conversation away from discounting commission13. Steers the listing presentation conversation away from pricing the listing14. Keep the higher commission (despite the competitors discounting their commission)15. Prospects see our virtual tours (on our website, elsewhere) (even before our listing presentation)16. In-bound leads17. Synergy from using virtual tours on all listings; regardless of price18. Advantage of putting your best foot forward every time19. Use for Coming Soon window20. Multiple offers happen sooner21. Including virtual tours on every listing results in in-bound requests from home sellers22. Consistent marketing for all listings. Prospective home sellers pick up on that!23. Helps with repeat business24. Helps with referral business25. Streamlines the workflow to include a virtual tour in the same digital package for every listing26. Helps with the heavy listing that the internet does to market a listing27. Now I have a 24/7 Open House that gets syndicated to all the listing services28. Virtual tours move the needle; easy to justify the cost29. Invest in marketing the property; not the ego of the agent30. Money spent on marketing the property is a good reflection on the agent’s brand31. Win more listings32. ½ of virtual tour investment is getting listings; ½ is marketing the property33. Half our time is working on getting business. Virtual tours help generate more business.34. Text this code to see the virtual tour.35. Popcorn Effect: Sell one house in a neighborhood and more popup36. Virtual tours are like an online digital resume.37. Win bigger listings (average price point increases)38. To get million dollar listings, you need to be dining virtual tours for your other, lower price-point listings.39. Getting million dollar listings starts out with virtual tours for everyday listings.40. Your fiduciary duty you your seller: you owe it to the seller to use virtual tours! As agents, we are obligated to use the best tools possible41. “Digital resume” every time we sell a house.42. Virtual tours are a no brainer43. Missing out on future opportunities if you are not including a virtual tour44. It’s too expensive not to do virtual tours45. Virtual Tours helps you win business from other agents that feel that they are entitled to a listing.46. WOW factor gets you more listing presentation opportunities and to win more listings.47. Make it easy for home sellers to tell their friends about you (and your virtual tours).48. Homeowners can share the virtual tour (before it goes live on MLS); which agents can not do.49. Stats say houses sell for more money and faster if they have a virtual tour. The percent increase helps pay for the virtual tour.50. Virtual tours help you get more than just family and friends’ listings51. Virtual tours help buyers with that second look (after they have visited multiple listings)52. Virtual tours help buyers with friends/family that are helping the buyer make a decision.53. Virtual tours reduce the number of times the buy needs to keep visiting the property for measurements.54. Virtual Tours can increase touch points with prospects; particularly when using other tools to automate.55. Virtual Tours enable the real estate agent to be efficient with his/her time.56. Virtual Tours help eliminate tire-kickers.57. Virtual Tours help pre-qualify buyers for in-person showing.58. Virtual Tours help the real estate get full-commission.59. Virtual Tours help you justify your full-commission.60. Virtual Tours help you also get the house seller as a house buyer; typically at a higher price point.61. Virtual Tours help you get more referrals (from the home seller; from the home buyer and home buyer prospects.62. Virtual Tours are a small portion of the marketing budget for a listing.63. Virtual Tours help an agent not miss out on getting the listing; getting more leads and more referrals.64. Are you winning 100 percent of your listing presentations? (Virtual Tours will help you win more listings!)65. Are your listings as big as you would like? (Average sales price). Virtual Tours will help you get more.66. Getting a higher average sales price is a huge value for real estate agents. Virtual Tour will help get there.67. Did you lose a listing presentation in the last 60 days? Virtual Tours will help you win listings.68. Would you like to have a higher average sales price? Virtual Tours will help you achieve this.69. While the house will sell anyway, not statistically for as much money with a virtual tour.70. While the house will sell anyway, how does that reflect on your brand (versus agents using virtual tours)?71. While the house will sell anyway, you may not get as many referrals from the home seller, had you WOWed them by getting the most offers sooner and for more money.72. While the house will sell anyway, you are missing a key piece of your digital resume.73. While the house will sell anyway, when you use virtual tours, you are making a digital marketing resume that says, “I am an agent that uses the best marketing possible to get the highest price possible.”74. Virtual Tours help you avoid competing on price

Hi All,Asteroom Virtual Staging Demo and Discussion with Co-Founder/CEO Eric TsaiAsteroom Virtual Staging for WGAN Forum Members is $49.99 per 360 panorama with 48 hours turnaround and available in four different styles, Asteroom Co-Founder and CEO @EricTsai announced Wednesday, 30 September 2020. [Join WGAN Forum (free)]As few as one (1) virtually staged 360 panorama can be ordered, though Asteroom anticipates that WGAN Forum Members will want to order virtual staging for three 360 panoramas:✓ Entrance✓ Living Room✓ Big Bed RoomAsteroom Virtual Staging can be done either for:✓ Spaces without furniture✓ Spaces with existing furniture (Asteroom "removes" the existing furniture and then re-stages the space)Asteroom Also Announced Wednesday, 30 September 2020✓ The first Asteroom Pay Per Tour Bundle is free for WGAN Forum Members with promo code WGANAsteroom on this special Asteroom landing page - for a limited time - effective today (Wednesday, 30 September 2020).✓ Additional Asteroom Pay Per Tour Bundles are now $49.99 each for WGAN Forum Members.The free and special pricing offers for WGAN Forum Members are made by WGAN Gold Member, Asteroom Co-Founder and CEO Eric Tsai.Physical staging is not a cost-effective option for many sellers, with the service’s high price bracket keeping it nearly exclusive to the high-end luxury market. The average cost for physical staging can range from $300 to $600 for an initial consultation, and upwards of $500 for each staged room each month the property is staged, often costing thousands of dollars per month.Virtual staging looks as good as real-life staging and costs much less: about 10 percent of physical staging.According to the 2019 National Association of REALTORS (NAR) Home Staging Profile report:✓ 83% of buyers' agents noted that staging made it easier for buyers to visualize the property as a future home.✓ 25% of buyers’ agents said that staging a home increased the offer between 1% and 5% compared to un-staged listings.✓ 17% of sellers’ agents said that staging increased the dollar value of a home between 6% and 10%.Learn more about Asteroom Virtual Staging in this WGAN-TV Training U in Asteroom Course with guest @EricTsai.Below are Asteroom BEFORE and AFTER examples used during the course.

How to shoot a Metareal Stage 3D Virtual Tour with nearly any 360 Camera; post production
Hi All,My guest on WGAN-TV Live at 5 on Wednesday, 25 March 2020 is Metareal Inc. CEO Gareth Morgan.Gareth will demo and discuss the Metareal Stage 3D virtual tour platform: including how to make floor plans and 3D virtual tours from 360 photos shot with any 360 camera (or let a Metareal Certified Artist build the tour for you).I will ask questions from a Service Provider – and real estate agent - perspective.You can see a Metareal Stage virtual tour above and more Metareal Stage virtual tours here.Best,Dan
P.S. Spoiler Alert (added after the show)
Key Takeaways✓ Metareal Stage 3D virtual tour is amazing. Unlike Matterport, the Metareal Stage 3D virtual tour can be shot with nearly any 360º camera and because of how Metareal creates the 3D virtual tour, the tour can be shot much, much faster.✓ Metrareal Stage offers both automatic tour and floor plan creation service or DIY tour creation (to save money)✓ Compared to Matterport, Metareal offers a more cost-effective 3D virtual tour solution✓ free publishing to Google Street View✓ Metareal Stage is a serious contender for Service Providers to offer to real estate agentsI look forward to our next WGAN-TV Live at 5 show (date TBD) when you will do a deeper dive demo and discussion of:✓ Metareal Stage plug-in for Autodesk Revit✓ Metareal Stage SDK

Matterport saves money and time; and creates additional uses cases.

WGAN-TV How and Why to Create ADA Compliant Matterport and Other 3D/360 Virtual Tours
Hi All,✓ What is the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)?✓ How does the ADA apply to Matterport and other3D/360 Virtual Tours?✓ How do you create ADA compliant Matterport and other 3D/360 Virtual Tours?✓ What should every Matterport Service Provider and other 3D/360 Virtual Tour Service Providers know about ADA?My guest on WGAN-TV Live at 5 (5 pm ET Thursday, 19 March 2020 is Barnes Creative Studios Founder Steve Barnes (@BarnesCreative). Barnes Creative Studios has created an exclusive ADA compliant player to make Matterport and other 3D/360 Virtual Tours - accessible to Americans with disabilities.The WGAN-TV Live at 5 topic is: How and Why to Create ADA Compliant Matterport and Other Virtual ToursIf you have enterprise clients or prospects, it's likely that you will be asked about how to make the Matterport Digital Twins ADA compliant. Over time, it's also likely that other existing or potential clients of your Matterport Tours will ask about ADA compliance.“Under the current law, there is an incentive for plaintiff’s lawyers to file ADA access lawsuits: hotels may be required to pay a disabled person’s attorney fees even if the hotel agrees to correct any problems right away," says FindLaw.Even if you do not have enterprise clients such as a major hotel brand or cruise line brand, this is a "must watch" WGAN-TV Live at 5 show.Here are questions that I anticipate asking Steve:1. What is the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)?2. How does ADA apply to Matterport 3D Tours?3. What is the Web Content Accessibilities Guidelines (WCAG)?4. How does the Website Content Accessibilities Guidelines apply to Matterport 3D Tours?5. Why should I care about making Matterport 3D Tours ADA compliant? Enterprise clients and prospects?6. Can you speak about this from a disabled person's perspective?7. Can you speak about this from a lawsuit perspective?8. How and why did you decide to build an ADA compliant virtual tour player9. Please demo your ADA compliant, custom-built embedded virtual tour player10. Please demo the Video Guided Tour Button11. Please demo the Audio Description Button (Screen Reader)12.

Barnes Creative Studios (BCS) has developed a solution to make ADA compliant virtual tours. ADA (The Americans with Disabilities Act) compliance means making your service or product accessible to people with disabilities and it was amended to include websites in 2008. Hotels are increasingly aware that non-compliant websites make them potentially liable for lawsuits and fines, and many have implemented standards to comply.Up until now, there was not a streamlined solution to make virtual tours compliant. BCS has created a solution. Introducing an embedded player which not only provides AA compliant virtual tours, but also can be used for older virtual tours you already have in your catalog. Also, as an added bonus your search engine optimization will be amplified.See a list of past and current lawsuits on the ADA website that includes many hotels and resorts.BCS Has an Exclusive Player that Adheres to Accessibility GuidelinesBCS exclusively provides our custom ADA compliant virtual tours that adhere to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG). WCAG define how to make web content more accessible to people with disabilities. Accessibility involves a wide range of disabilities, including visual, auditory, physical, speech, cognitive, language, learning and neurological.BCS offers a solution which directly adheres to the “WCAG 2.0 guidelines 1.2 for time-based media: providing alternatives for time-based media”. This includes “audio and/or video combined with interaction”. The accessible alternative version of our ADA compliant virtual tour contains:✓ Alternative Pre-Recorded Video Guided Virtual Tour✓ Transcript✓ Audio Description (Prerecorded)✓ Live CaptionsAll of the above is delivered in a custom-built embedded player that hosts both media items. Firstly, it includes the standard virtual tour and secondly the alternative accessible version that is ADA compliant. For example, below is an ADA compliant virtual tour from the Four Seasons Punta Mita Mexico.
Added SEO value for ADA Compliant Virtual TourAs a result, for having compliant virtual tours on your website your search engine optimization (SEO) value will be supercharged. SEO is successful when you have contextual elements attached to rich media, for instance, like transcripts and detailed descriptions. With our ADA compliant virtual tour the added context from the WCAG 2.0 guidelines makes your content fuel your web page resulting in successful SEO.Barnes Creative Studios looks forward to help your hotel reach compliance with ADA standards. 360 Virtual tours are a unique user driven media and BCS is dedicated to making these experiences available to as many people as possible.Private Message Steve Barnes at @BarnesCreative for more information.Source: Barnes Creative Studios Blog Post
