They've done a fabulous marketing job with my new listings, as well as a systematic follow-up program to all my sellers. Their team photo is part of my listing package, and my sellers are amazed at the incredible tasks that a professional Virtual Team can accomplish.

"I have been thinking about hiring an on-site assistant for several years but have dreaded the thought of the interview process and training. I hired RealSupport recently and am thrilled with their service and with the fact that I do NOT have to train them. Period. They are experts in the industry and they know what works. They are on top of everything and get my tasks done faster than I would myself and, best of all, they have great ideas. Thanks, RealSupport!"

"When you look to a VA you don't know what quality control you get but after 3 VA's I have found a team who truly does care as much as I do. The RealSupport team allows me to focus my spending valuable time in front of clients instead of tied up with marketing or paperwork that or course has to be completed. Here in Massachusetts the paperwork is overwhelming and the Real Support team takes care of everything. From the time I get the listing to the day I close the deal they are there for me and my clients every step of the way.

Carrie, I would like thank you and your wonderful staff for all that you do, without your support I would not have been able to achieve my level of success in 2007. A client said to me, "how do you do all that you do?" I said "with the proper support anything can be accomplished, and without my team I would be just like the rest of the agents competing for your business." If you have thought about hiring a VA but you always were concerned, look no farther, you have found the team that will elevate your business."

"I can't say how much I appreciate what RealSupport has done for my business and in helping me get focused. Everywhere you turn, you are being bombarded with the latest and the greatest. We all know how much money we can throw at marketing with no results.

But, then, the question is always, What is the best use of my time? From something
as time-consuming as trying to implement my own marketing plan, designing a customized listing presentation, figuring out how to add a microsite, spending countless hours with technical support over a problem I don't understand anyway, designing custom artwork for a special giveaway, and on and on, all of those things are not where my expertise lies. If I'm in front of my computer working on tasks that take me away from getting business, then I'm losing money.

In addition, they have an actual office. There is more than one person to handle any situation. You are not left in a bind if someone is out sick or has a personal emergency or, heaven forbid, actually takes a vacation. Everyone at RealSupport is responsive and so pleasant to deal with, and they can pick up where someone else left off, if need be. Once you have a Virtual Assistant team like RealSupport, I don't believe there is any looking back. I consider RealSupport an essential part of my team"

“I don’t usually write testimonials, so this is out of the ordinary for me. However, I really do want to share my incredible experience working with RealSupport Inc. - they are angels! Coming back from Hobbs & Herder Gateway, I got inspired about the idea of getting a Virtual Assistant to help me with my real estate needs. I got few referrals but RealSupport really came through in a powerful way. They are patient, friendly, kind, and most of all detail oriented which is a skill that I lack. With the help of the RealSupport team I was able to put together a plan for my direct mail campaign. RealSupport even compiled my mailing list for me and sorted it by street to include the streets I desired. Best of all I know that while RealSupport is managing my campaign, my mailings will go out and I don’t even have to think about it! They also help me with my website and several design projects. Now I am flying beyond the sky, living my life in a new extraordinary way and I know that every task will get done. If I can dream about it – RealSupport will make it happen. I love them!”

They are responsive and understand my marketing needs well. Frankly, I am thrilled to have found the RealSupport team! I have needed to put together a more cohesive marketing plan for my business for a long time and I am happy that I am finally working on it with their help!"

"While I am fortunate to have an in-house assistant to help with many details of working with buyers and sellers, sometimes we get on "overload." The folks at RealSupport have been a real blessing with handling the details of completing listing marketing and other computer work. We feel truly lucky to have discovered them several years ago. They have the ability to process a listing from its inception through closing - if that's what an agent prefers. Give them a try -- they'll work with you to create the package that fits your marketing style, freeing you up to go take another listing, find the perfect home for a new buyer, or take your kids to an afternoon matinee!!"

"RealSupport designed my website. They were very patient and helpful when working with me to get my real estate personal website just right. They offered many good ideas and were very willing to make changes until I was completely satisfied. Anytime there are changes or additions to be made to my listings, they handle them in a very timely way. The RealSupport team is a pleasure to work with."

"I would like to compliment RealSupport for their professionalism and expertise. I was looking for a new VA to manage my website and after speaking with Carrie Gable and her team I decided to enlist their services. I needed prompt attention because an unresolved problem was getting worse and they came through with flying colors. They were courteous, knowledgeable, and understanding of my needs and completely solved my problem quickly and efficiently. And it's so nice to call an office where a human being actually answers the telephone. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a VA with expertise in a variety of areas. Thanks to the RealSupport team for doing such a great job!"

"RealSupport was recommended to me by a real estate coach that teaches REALTORS® how to streamline their business. I like having the flexibility of using RealSupport when I am busy, yet when things slow down; I am not obligated to keep them busy. The thought of getting an on-site assistant did not appeal to me because of the management and bookkeeping involved as well as the up and down nature in the real estate business. I worried about keeping an on-site assistant busy all of the time, with RealSupport I don't have that concern - I use them when I need them. RealSupport fits my needs perfectly. They are always there when I need something or have a new listing to market. They have an extensive menu of services to choose from and they customize a marketing plan for each client's individual needs. They are always friendly, responsive and accommodating. For me it's a great fit!"

"After taking the plunge and hiring a Virtual Assistant to do some of the "stuff" that was so hard to give up, I have found that once you get things set up and this team of pros takes over - things run smoother that I could have imagined. I can now tell sellers what is going to happen and when, and it happens. I would be glad to discuss, with anyone, any fears you may have. The RealSupport Team is just that "Real Support". I look forward to many years together with them taking over more and more "stuff" as I continue to learn that they get it done faster and better!!"

"RealSupport has been an integral team member for Harmony Home Inspectors. They lend their insight to situations where I am less familiar and are quick to implement changes when we change direction. When situations come up that we haven't covered before they think on their feet and get the job done. I have complete confidence in RealSupport operating the answering and scheduling aspect of my business."

"I have been a REALTOR® for 8 years now and I have always had those mixed feelings when I got a new listing - excited that I have been successful at winning the listing, but not looking forward to the hours and hours of work now before me to set up and market the listing properly.

Finding RealSupport was wonderful. They have freed up my time so that I can do what I am good at and work on the things that do make me money. The RealSupport team is very professional, always helpful and courteous, and you can pick and choose only the services you need. I looked at several other VA's before hiring RealSupport. I now know that I made the right choice. Thank you to Erica, Carrie and the rest of the RealSupport team! You guys have made my life easier."

"My personal assistant had the job opportunity of a lifetime fall into her lap. She gave me notice on a Friday. Her new job started Monday! After picking myself off the floor and getting over the sick to my stomach feeling, my office manager and I reviewed our options. They were slim because my office is located in a rural resort area with next to no skilled labor force. Fortunately I had been attending Michael Russer's "Mr. Freaking Internet Boot Camp" for the last few years and I knew that I could turn to virtual assisting. We had already done many special projects with various virtual teams, however a special project is very different from day to day tasks that an assistant performs.

I ended up using Michael Russer's platform for interviewing Virtual Assistants. I chose Carrie Gable and her team of Virtual Assistants for many reasons. A couple of those reasons are: they have a brick and mortar office with a team of assistants who can cover for each other, and they serve agents in geographical zones so you do not have them working with your competition. This allows for RealSupport to share great idea's other agents are implementing (with that agent's permission). This in itself can be an invaluable tool. I love their task management system. The learning curve is very small. The team at RealSupport Inc. is very responsive, organized, and has become an invaluable part of my team!!!! Not to mention that everything they do for me is now a documented system/procedure that anybody can follow. I could go on and on with how satisfied I am but suffice to say: I would highly recommend RealSupport, Inc. to any agent in need of assistance, you can't afford to not do it!!"

"My manager mentioned the idea of a virtual assistant and then Carrie Gable came to one of our office meetings and discussed the concept. I was skeptical at first and didn't like some of their canned marketing ideas, however, they were very open to my suggestions and worked with me until we reached a place where they could perform and I felt happy about what was happening. They have new listing tasks, weekly tasks, monthly tasks, and some one time marketing projects. The RealSupport team has been great. I don't have to worry about filling up an assistant's time, being a manager, or seeing them.

I submit my internet tasks and they perform them. I pay on a task by task basis. They have helped me do mailings, bring me reasonable ideas to enhance my web-sites, and periodically bring me new marketing ideas. They have my passwords, send me an invoice every month, and are extremely responsive. The relationship is working. They only call when there is a problem. My goal is not to see their number on my caller ID. I know that as I become more organized and aware of other internet options they will play even a greater part in my real estate life."

"Carrie and her team have been supporting my real estate and human resources consulting business for over three years. During that time, the RealSupport team has greatly expanded their offerings and is very adept at using technology and creative marketing to assist their clients. Carrie and her Team bring a high level of marketing experience to bear on each of their client's projects and they are not shy about making suggestions to better assist their clients. I have no hesitation in recommending RealSupport for your Virtual Assistant needs."

"RealSupport Inc. has been a lifesaver in keeping my business running smoothly. They are supremely competent and conscientious. Knowledgeable about real estate, they pay close attention to details, schedules and issues that can or do arise. They also possess creative flair and extreme computer literacy, and they smilingly go the extra mile whenever necessary. Moreover, the miles that separate us are totally without impact. The staff at RealSupport may call themselves "Virtual" Assistants, but "vital" is more to the point."

"Every task undertaken is done quickly, systematically, and often better than I could do it myself. They are so organized! They don't let clients, attorneys or REALTORS intimidate them. Carrie is a fellow entrepreneur who seems to enjoy improving the service I give my clients as much as I do. If there were only some way for her to organize my desk remotely..."

"Carrie and her team members at RealSupport have been an integral part of my Real Estate team since 2002. I make a practice of delegating any tasks that do not require a physical presence in NJ or a NJ Real Estate License. Carrie holds the position of Client Care Manager on my staff and deals with our clients from before they hire us through closing and beyond. Thanks to the RealSupport team, our clients never feel neglected, our deals run much more smoothly than they ever did before, and I'm free to concentrate on generating new business and negotiating contracts. Thanks to RealSupport, I have an award-winning website that is constantly being improved. Carrie is my first line of technical support and is always watchful for cost-saving opportunities and new ideas. She is proactive both in improving her business and mine. Having the RealSupport team has resulted in increased profitability (for every dollar I pay them, I figure I net 3) and I can provide my clients with excellent service without feeling like a hamster in a wheel."
