New Banner Manager

The Banner Manager allows you, the client, to take charge of adding and administering banner ads for your site. To use the Banner Manager simply access your Web Assistant, click on the Website tab, and then Banner Manager.

Once in the manager, first check the box to "Enable banners on this site”. Next, upload your static or animated banner graphic. The standard dimensions for a banner is 468 pixels by 60 pixels, and the file type must be .gif, .jpg, or .swf format. Add the URL that you wish the banner to go to. Finally, you can add a caption that will appear below the banner image.

  Tips Of The Month
  

The struggles of Print Advertising

Real estate brokerages and their agents continue to move more marketing dollars to the Internet. This is even more important considering today's market conditions. The appeal for industry practitioners rests largely in the level of consumer adoption of the Internet, now north of 90%, as well as better measurability of Internet investments vs. print advertising.

Based on the results of last month's poll, we're making a recent INMAN News special available to BIRDVIEW clients. Get a FREE copy of this report at http://birdview.com/freereport.

Planning for 2007

In between spending time with family and enjoying the holidays, you're probably also trying to get some planning completed for 2007. We'd like to offer you valuable insight from some of our most successful clients. Consider your Internet investments a marketing expense rather than a technology expense. This allows you to divide marketing dollars more easily between online and offline venues and track their respective profitability.

Also, be sure to conduct an annual business review with your BIRDVIEW Account Executive. Our account executives are experts on how to make the Internet work for you. Consult with them, get the facts on what's working and what's not with respect to your business objectives and make the necessary adjustments.

We wish you all the best in 2007. Good Selling!
