Update on KW Website Rollout

Happy Friday, KW Technology community members! Here's a look at what you can expect on today's Tech Community webinar. 

UPDATE ON KW WEBSITE ROLLOUT
We know that you and your agents are anxious to get started on your new KW Websites. The rollout is targeted to begin in the next few weeks. The websites will be rolled out in batches, on an MLS-by-MLS basis, beginning with MLS organizations that currently have agreements with Placester. 

On today’s KW Technology Community webinar, we’ll share with you what we’ve done so far and what’s left to do so that the rollout can begin. Join us to hear from our KW Website Project Manager, Meredith Ethridge, as she talks about what goes into creating a great website experience for 134,000 agents and their clients.

In the meantime, check out the KW Website page on myKW to see feature details and revisit your blog and social media strategy to be ready.

Also, join today's webinar for a look at a new KW Websites classroom workshop we've created. You'll have everything you need to teach your agents how to get started with their new websites when your MLS rolls out.

eEDGE UPDATES
As of this week, two new features are available in eEdge:

Search Listings by Keywords – Want to find properties with waterfront access, boat docks, or single story homes? Narrowing the search for the right home has gotten easier. You and your website visitors can now search listing remarks using keywords or phrases. 

1. On your eEdge top navigation bar, click Search MLS.
2. Simply type your search criteria into the “Remarks Keyword” field to find the properties where that term is included in the remarks from your MLS. 
3. Set up a listing alert with that same search term(s) so your clients never miss a listing!

Efficiently Add a New Contact to a Group – Save time by adding a new contact to a group while in the “Add a Contact” section of your CRM. We are all about streamlining your productivity and this new feature will do just that! NOTE: Adding a new contact to a group via “Add a Contact” does not automatically add them to a campaign that group may be on.
