A week ago, Vflyer has launched a service called WatermarkPlus. The service lets you add you own graphics to any image you upload to the site. You can add graphic and text elements to your pictures using an easy 3-step process. The nice part is that no registration is required, just upload the picture, choose the style of watermark you want, save the photo and impress your client with the new marketing skills you have just acquired.

The idea behind this application? Vflyer says:

“Watermark Plus is an image enhancing service offered as part of vFlyer that allows users to merchandize and enhance photos and images by adding text, graphics, logos and watermarks to them - quickly and easily. The service allows online sellers to:

• Protect photos by adding visible watermarks and logos
• Enhance photos to attract interest from buyers by adding sales, product and pricing information
• Brand photos and include contact information by adding company logos or personal photographs”

How can this help the real estate agents and their clients?

“If you are looking for ideas on the type of information you can overlay on your photos, here are a few:

• Attention grabbing graphics (stars, banners, ovals, i.e.)
• Sales information or Call to action (“Call Now”,”Special Offer”, i.e.)
• Product information (“Price Reduced”,”Just Listed”, “In Stock”, i.e.)
• Contact information (phone number, url, i.e.)
• Corporate branding and logos
• Personal branding and photos
• Watermarks (transparent)”

If you haven’t used Vflyer services yet, you should start right now. Their website has made my life so much easier in terms of advertising, it has saved me money and I’m able to post all my listings with a nice layout, on sites such as Craiglist.

The current trend in the real estate business is the internet marketing, and any realtor should be on top of things by using the latest free real estate tool available on the Web.
