FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

“Flight simulator” for real estate agents boosts success!

Each year thousands of people in [INSERT YOUR CITY] decided to “try real estate” as a career. Their biggest questions are: “Will I succeed?” and “How can I improve my chances?” These are important questions because in only a few other careers is there such a huge difference between the wildly-successful agents and those who barely make a living, or leave the industry defeated.

[INSERT YOUR BROKERAGE HERE] is now using Real Estate Simulator™ to help agents answer these important questions. In the same way that a flight simulator allows pilots to experience flight without leaving the ground, Real Estate Simulator™ allows potential agents to experience the challenges of a career in real estate before they decide to invest the years it takes to build a successful career.

Real Estate Simulator™ uses video over the Internet to reproduce a series of common and challenging situations that agents encounter on a daily basis. In each situation the agent must interact with a customer on the screen, who “talks” to them. The agent must then select what that they think is the best response for that situation. Each response by the agent triggers a new action from the customer and the situation continues. The situations range from the nerve-racking and rejection-filled “cold-call” on a new prospect, to tense contract negotiations with an anxious married couple.

At the end of the assessment Real Estate Simulator™ compares the agent’s responses with those of the industry’s Top Performers and provides the agent with a general score of how well they did, and a detailed and comprehensive report of the agent’s strengths and weaknesses over the entire selling process.

“The report is critical to the future success of the agent because it tells them where they need to improve. We work with them to focus their training in these areas; as well as to help them leverage their strengths. At the end of the day we find that agents improve their skills more quickly and that their sales performance increases dramatically.” says [INSERT YOUR NAME HERE].

“The Real Estate Simulator™ has been used by thousands of agents across North America. We have found a strong correlation between the performance of top agents and the high scores on the Simulator. This indicates that Real Estate Simulator™ has high degree of validity and is extremely accurate,” says Kim Ades, President of Upward Motion, who developed the Real Estate Simulator™.
