What else?  Some say that technology is already here, it is up to you to learn how to use it.

  1. At a recent National On Line Commercial Real Estate  Convention, one common theme was "the technology is here, you just have to learn how to use it."  We at ICIWorld have been providing Training Sessions one on one for over ten years, to brokers and salespeople in their office, over the phone while you are on the Internet.  We have learned a lot over the last while particularly in the last six months to a year, on what it takes to help a broker make a lot of money.  We share that in the Training sessions that we provide to new members and to renewing members.
  2. As far as technology is concerned the information you are reading now is coming to you from San Jose, California, on one of the fastest and most powerful computers in the world with the fastest connection speed.  You will notice the average response time should be only 4.9 seconds. Mind you it took ten years to get to this level.  Busy people just do not want to wait a long time to get information. With the engineers we have working with us, some from the Nortel corporation, Microsoft Network and others, we have the best in database programming to handle the demands of the world wide commercial real estate industry.  It really is simply up to you to make use of it. 
  3. This service is really about people.  People do deals.  The listings really just help people meet in a timely fashion but it is the people who develop business relationships with others that are the most successful.
  4. We help people connect to do deals.  Many deals have occurred when someone calls on one thing that may not suit that person, they discuss something else not on the service, develop a relationship, go off and do a deal.  ICIWorld helped them get together.  The Haves and Wants help people who can do a deal together, get connected to explore doing a deal together.
  5. This is a major world wide service that has been operating for over ten years, and you can provide the utmost discretion and confidentiality where required.  One piece of information in commercial real estate can help one make a lot of money.  Although members advertise their real estate board listings, this service provides the very best ways to network information that can not be placed on typical real estate board type listing services.
  6. Readership - It is very exciting. It continues to grow as more and more people get on to the Internet.  When they do get on the Internet they will find ICIWorld.net We are in thousands of search engines around the world and have among the highest number in databases to promote the fact it is the world's largest Have and Want Information service.  If people have access to a computer, anywhere in the world, they can and do access this information. The numbers of hits and statistics and sales continue to grow. There are over 400,000 hit per month from over 70 countries of the world with the majority coming from the USA.  This readership has taken ten years to build.  You get the benefit of these connections  the moment you join.  Your information is only one or two clicks away from connecting to do your next deal.
  7. Unlimited Haves and Wants - Designed so that you do not have to think whether you want to take a listing or not.   There is no limit to the number of opportunities to do deals. Some of the ones with 30-50 listings have actually made over $500,000, others are doing one deal per month.  It is very exciting.
  8. Open and exclusive information can be worked. There is no other service that works this kind of information quite so intelligently.  44% of the deals being done are of this variety and we believe we have not even scratched the surface.  You should be working this kind of information in your area.  One piece of information can make you a lot of money.  We have many examples to illustrate it. One contact can lead to a significant transaction.  We have been hearing of transactions in progress up to $80,000,000 and there are properties and businesses available to $2.2 Billion.
  9. Training Program to make sure you achieve what we call "The Ultimate in Marketing on the Internet."
  10. Many people have been so busy just trying to make a living they have not learned about computers. We help them one on one in ones office, over the phone. In fact we may have the best training for brokers world wide.  For experts there are advanced things we do that you will appreciate.  This has been learned by helping brokers for ten years.
    1. There are certain skill sets that will help you take advantage of information technology in the commercial real estate business.  ICIWorld has been helping brokers for years, developing concepts and techniques and knowledge to help brokers take advantage of the Internet.  We literally provide training daily every hour on the hour for brokers around the world to provide them with marketing expertise that is effective.
    2. This Includes training in your office over the phone by someone who has been doing this for ten years working with brokers every hour on the hour daily.
    3. Concepts - There are several concepts that are the difference between doing deals and . . . not doing deals.
    4. Learn the Power of Linking - one of the True Powers of the Internet  Instead of you having to build a $10,000 web site to sell the location of your properties, there already are web sites that do just that.  You can link to them absolutely free.  We teach you how to do that.  In our opinion 90% of the real estate brokers and salespeople on the Internet have not really arrived on the Internet in an effective manner because all they do is throw properties on the Internet with no due regard to the location, thereby missing what many say is the three most important words in real estate.
    5. Understanding how and where the information flows. 
    6. Understanding the four ingredients, what it takes to spark interest from a busy person.
    7. There has not been one broker who has learned something that he/she feels makes it worth the money to join this service.
  11. Access to the Private FSBO Area -  You can deal direct with these people.  There are over 3,000 privately placed haves and wants from the public and more coming in daily.   You can even have them EMailed to you within the hour.  You can and should deal direct with these people.
  12. Resource Center - Every broker says it alone is worth more than the price of admission to our service.
  13. Home page - if you do not have one, you can have one hosted . . . free with your membership.  We will consult with you on suggestions for your home page.  We will show you examples.
  14. If you have a Home Page:
  15. Powerful Listing Presentations - print out the Statistics in colour.  It will show over 400,000 hits per month from over 70 countries of the world.  It is a very powerful listing tool.  Here is an example: January/2002 Other brokers will say they are on the Internet but you will be able to prove how you are on the Internet is better.
  16. Print out a list of buyers when you go on a listing presentation.  Our broker members are getting Power of Sales from banks!  You literally can pick up the  phone and start making appointments to show property.
  17. Search Engine placement to capture people interested in Industrial, Commercial and Investment Real Estate, Land, Farms, Businesses, Financing and more.  To gather attention for ICIWorld.net money has to be spent to achieve certain rankings. We spend that on behalf of the industry.  You get the benefit of top search engine placement.
  18. Organization -  After all is said and done, we will show you how not to spend time on the computer.  If you spend time on the computer you won't make any money.  You make money talking to people.  There is a way to be organized, and to delegate.  But you have to understand what is happening in terms of marketing, networking, gathering information and distribution.  ICIWorld will plug you into it all and show you how it works.  We will talk about your biggest responsibility to making a lot of money in the coming weeks and months ahead and show you how to recognize important information that can make you a lot of money.  It is all about working smarter . . . not harder. 
  19. EMail Distribution - Recently after ten years of development we brought new a new Sun Server with Java programming on line in San Jose California.  It has been a goal of ours to distribute just the information people can use.  Today many people are overwhelmed with information.  Everyone is suffering information overload.  These EMail List Services can target regions, States, Provinces, Business Categories, etc. and deliver just the information when and only if it becomes available in a timely manner. This is now automatic and instant for members who ad Haves and Want to not only place their information in a database that is receiving over 400,000 hits per month, but deliver their information instantly and automatically to the public.  This is a major credit to our programmers some of which have been senior programmers at the Nortel Corporation. 
  20. Databasing is our specialty. Companies and organizations can do group uploads managed by their own IT staff.
  21. It is a proven service, operating for ten years by commercial real estate brokers and salespeople now reporting 1-3 deals per day.  This is not pie in the sky programs.  There are deals reporting daily by members.  We think free services cost you more money because they can waste your time because of lack of exposure.  They may not print their statistics because they are not high.  We print our statistics and make it public so you can see the activity.
  22. Internal database management is a daily thing at ICIWorld.net All the contacts work to your benefit. People will be only one click away from your information if it interests them.
  23. We have learned from the CCIM Program and Education and the language of commercial real estate.  There are many CCIM's on the service who are benefiting. In that sense there is leadership provided to design programs that work successfully for the industry.
  24. In my capacity as World Conference Chairman I have worked with Haves and Wants in International Marketing Sessions to help people connect to deals. We understand the fine and delicate nuances of the commercial real estate business and know what to recommend.   In fact the whole concept started with CCIM Chapter Network Marketing Sessions.  Sometimes it is not what you place in listings that counts . . . it is what you should not place that counts.  These kind of things are literally the difference between doing deals and not doing deals.
  25. The company has no debt.  It has been financing growth through the annual membership fee.  All the technological advances come from the growth of membership on the Internet.  ICIWorld has been making its money completely on the Internet for years. We have had to justify our service to each and every member, one on one for years, every renewal, and we now average about an 85% renewal rate.  It continues to grow and stories from members continues to inspire us.  We know it will work for you.
  26. Hi tech . . . low price. One annual fee of $240 and a one time signup fee of $79 has never been an issue for people who are serious about doing business in commercial real estate.  It permits a wider participation by members of the brokerage community. One can benefit from the connections from a $5,000,000 service.  The only problem many brokers have is the lack of time.  We have a program to that can solve that problem.
    1. Many have not worked open and exclusive listings in the past for one reason that it was too expensive and why should a person spend money on an ad in a newspaper without a listing. Today the expense issue is removed with this service.
  27. We are prepared to speak at your group function, convention, conference, etc. Here is a sample speaking engagement: www.iciworld.net/reic.htm
