8 ways to Test Your Website

Carol Royse (Carol Royse Lifestyle Team) — Thu, 10 Mar 2011 11:59:53 -0800

8 ways to Test Your Website Your website is the "storefront" of your business (even if you have a literal storefront, too). Your website needs to attract customers and keep them coming back for more. So pull up your website and ask yourself a few questions: Where do your eyes go first? You only have a few seconds to capture the attention of your audience...make sure they're seeing something important. Can you tell what the website is about? Again, you only have a few seconds to communicate your unique value, so be clear and compelling. Is important information above the fold? Make sure your opt-in forms and Unique Selling Proposition are available without scrolling down. Are the benefits highlighted? Your visitors want to quickly learn "what's in it for them." Spell out the benefits clearly on the homepage. Is there a clear call to action? If they like what they see, prospects need to know what to do next. It can be to buy now, start a free trial, or simply download a free report. Are the colors and font distracting? Jarring colors, quick animation, and gaudy fonts can really be distracting. And if your visitors are distracted, they'll click away. Do you feel personally connected? Consumers want to buy from people, not machines. Connect with your prospects by being honest, straightforward, and using a conversational style. Are there links to social media? Many people want to do a little more research before buying. Linking to social media sites gives your potential customers another glimpse into your company (and perhaps a few testimonials from other customers). Once you determine a few areas where you can improve, develop a plan to start implementing changes. You don't have to do them all at once - just do a few at a time until you have a website that really converts.

Remember These Home-Selling Tips

Carol Royse (Carol Royse Lifestyle Team) — Thu, 16 Dec 2010 15:56:29 -0800

When it comes to selling a home, remember you never get a second chance to make a good first impression. Real estate professionals call it “curb appeal.” It’s how would-be buyers see your house when they drive up. If they don’t like what they see initially, they will never get out of the car, and they will not see the inside, no matter how nice it is. So, before you put your house on the market, there are some simple steps you can take to improve the likelihood buyers will actually come inside.

According to the Texas Association of Realtors (TAR), the three most important factors when selling a house are location, condition and price. This column is about the second. Putting your house on the market requires checking every aspect of the home and repairing, refreshing or replacing whatever is necessary to sell it. Exterior Remove any junk or clutter from the yard. This includes tree limbs and leaves but especially junk cars, parts, lawn tractors and the like. Don’t forget to put away the concrete blocks the car was sitting on. It’s permissible for the home to look lived in but not by Ma and Pa Kettle. If the exterior of the house is dirty or moldy, give it a good scrubbing. Rent or borrow a high-pressure sprayer if you have to. My neighbors would gladly loan me anything if it means making my house look better. If it needs paint, paint it. But use common sense. Now is not the time to experiment with psychedelic colors. The house may just need a touch up, but that will work only if you can match the existing paint. I found out the hard way (my wife explained it to me) that enamel brown paint doesn’t touch up a flat brown house very well. Spruce up the entrance so it calls attention to itself. Reattach the house numbers according to city code. Take down the Christmas lights if it’s any month other than December or January. Clean the windows, and repair or replace screens or glass as needed. Clean, replace or discard dirty or broken lawn furniture. If you have a pool, be sure it is clean and the water crystal clear. If the driveway has deteriorated, consider repaving or repairing it. Power wash, seal, stain or paint decks and porches that need it. Replace missing boards from the backyard fence. Make certain downspouts and gutters are clear and functioning. You don’t want the prospects dodging a waterfall over the front door if it rains. And make sure all exterior lights are working — it’s unfortunate to lose the sale but worse to get sued because someone tripped in the dark. Besides, lighting makes the home show better. Landscaping Mow the lawn, edge the driveway, walks and curb. If there are bare areas in the lawn, add new sod. Pull, don’t just kill, the weeds. If time permits, you might re-seed bare areas. Prune dead limbs from trees and shrubbery. Dead trees should be removed, but hire a professional unless you know what you are doing. I lost a front porch when a tree removal went bad. Plant colorful flowers appropriate for the season. These should be live flowers, not plastic ones like the apartment complex up the street from me uses. Color experts say houses with yellow trim or yellow flower borders sell faster. Adding mulch to flower beds and around trees is an inexpensive but effective way of freshening the look of your yard. Getting the prospects in the front door is only part of the sale. There are some simple things you can do to make the inside more marketable as well. Interior Make sure the air conditioning and heating systems are in good working order. It’s unlikely you will sell your home to a family you can’t see it through their perspiration. Fix leaky faucets, toilets and faulty lighting. Vacuum the drapes; clean the carpet. Repair cracks in walls, re-caulk bathrooms and the kitchen. You might not want to cook cabbage the day of the showing. Do bake bread. Clean out closets, and remove excess furniture. Keep pets and children from being underfoot while prospects are looking. In fact, your real estate agent probably prefers that your whole family not be present. Ensure windows, doors and locks work smoothly. If doors are sticking, plane them. And throw away the junk in the garage, storage buildings and attic. After you’ve done all these things, you may decide that the old place looks so good you want to keep it. If that’s what you decide, you won’t be the first homeowner who felt that way.

Hire a Realtor® to Help You Buy

Carol Royse (Carol Royse Lifestyle Team) — Wed, 01 Sep 2010 15:22:28 -0700

Hire a Realtor® to Help You Buy

Buying a home is one of the most stressful and exciting events most people will ever experience. If you’ve never bought a home before, hiring a Realtor® to help you through the home-buying process is a must.

There are so many details involved with purchasing a house that having a Realtor® will minimize the chances that you will get taken
advantage of. Housing prices are on the incline, so even a small mistake or misunderstanding can be very costly.

Here are a few good reasons to hire a Realtor® to help you buy a home:

* While most Realtors will ask you to sign a contract, there is usually no cost involved. However, having a Realtor could save you from making mistakes, and save you a significant amount of money.
* The advice of a professional is often very valuable. Buying real estate can be very complex–not knowing all the rules can put you at a disadvantage. Realtors are there to ensure you don’t make an offer that is too high or too low. Plus, having an extra set of eyes to help you look out for problems (and opportunities) can make a big difference.
* There are many steps involved, and when you are excited about a house, it’s easy to miss a step. They can point out an item you wanted to negotiate. One simple mistake can easily cost you hundreds, even thousands, of dollars. After contracts are signed, it is often too late to go back and fix something that you missed.

Once your emotions get involved–and your bank account–the home-buying process can get very hectic. Having a Realtor who knows what you are looking for and knows the ins and outs of the process is something that will benefit you when you buy a home.
