My husband and I own and operate <a href="http://www.pro360virtualtours.com/">Pro360 Virtual Tours and Photography </a>in the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex. After 12 years in outside sales, I had left corporate America to be a stay at home mom. I always wanted to have my own business, but the right opportunity had not presented itself. That is, until I was introduced to <a href="http://www.realtourvision.com/">Real Tour Vision</a>. I have a passion for photography and thought about starting my own studio, but the costs involved were more than I wanted to invest at the time. My husband has been a freelance photographer for 20 years, so we already had an SLR camera and professional tripod. Real Tour Vision allowed me to start a photography business for a minimal investment.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Prior to making the final decision to become a dealer with RTV, I researched for months the various virtual tour options on the market. I found Real Tour Vision to have the most comprehensive and <a href="http://tms.realtourvision.com/tour/RE/tour.view.new.php?utl=RE-9099-M6I569-01">user friendly tour </a>in the industry. Then I spoke with current RTV dealers, they told me of a company that is ALWAYS available to help and answer any questions you have in a prompt and friendly manner. I communicated with Jason at RTV for months before making a decision. Without fail, he ALWAYS followed through with what he said he would do. All the way down to calling me the next month in a particular week to follow up. This is something I can truly appreciate coming from a sales background.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />We ordered our software and the work began. I set a goal to have a website up and running in a couple months. The dealer pack includes a website template and since I have Frontpage on my computer it was a breeze to build a <a href="http://www.pro360virtualtours.com/">professional website</a>. It literally took me about 4 hours of work to have the website up and running. We practiced with the software for a couple of months and opened for business on January 1st. We have customers in various areas of real estate, from real estate agents to <a href="http://activerain.com/blogsview/405131/Virtual-Tours-for-builders">custom home builders </a>and remodelers and also a land developer with a <a href="http://tms.realtourvision.com/tour/RE/tour.view.new.php?utl=RE-2266-FFED8Y-01">town home complex</a>. The comment I receive the most from customers is that we have the best interface on the market. The 360 view is far and away better for showcasing a property than the typical "slideshow" type programs. The hotspots offered by RTV truly make a virtual tour.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Last but not least, RTV allows me to have a business from home that I can work around my husband and son's schedule - and it is not a multi-level marketing program. Been there, done that...not again. Thanks, RTV for the amazing opportunity in a growing industry!<br /><br />Lisa Castro<br />Pro360 Virtual Tours and Photography<br /><a href="http://www.pro360virtualtours.com/">Dallas and Tarrant County Virtual Tours</a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2858901164150401233-6615489764807922068?l=start-business-with-rtv.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Lisa Castrohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07040677323672415032noreply@blogger.com0
