KW WEBSITE ROLLOUT SCHEDULE NOW AVAILABLE

CONNECT WITH PLACESTER ON TODAY'S WEBINAR
Today, we're excited to have Courteney McDonnell, Placester's Customer Success Coach, join today's KW Technology Community webinar. She'll explain Placester's mission and provide an overview of the partnership with Keller Williams Realty. She'll also talk about specific support resources for Keller Williams associates and how YOU, our MC Techs and KW Technology Ambassadors, will be equipped and empowered with the facts and success stories you need to serve as the first stop of training and support for your agents.

eEDGE UPDATES
You'll notice new features in eEdge - below are two of the updates we think you'll enjoy:
  • Limit Saved Listing Reminders: Because a new reminder EVERY time a contact saves a new listing can be a bit much, we’ve consolidated them into one reminder per contact per day, thus removing reminder clutter and streamlining your view of prospects who are returning and saving homes.
  • 50+ New Images Available for Landscape Website Theme: Looking for the perfect cityscape or neighborhood imagery to represent your market and stand out from the competition? Select the “Landscape” layout located in the Theme area of your Website Admin page and you’ll be able to browse the new banner images by clicking on "Site Images."

UPCOMING WEBINARS IN APRIL
Here's a list of KW Technology webinars scheduled for this month. Each webinar runs from 2:00 - 2:30 PM (Central Time) on the dates listed below.
