Listing Marketing Tools Training

A Dictionary of our Marketing Terms:


Our marketing efforts are in direct partnership with Curaytor. As you will come across often in these training videos, they use specific terms and marketing phrases which refer to different website functions, marketing techniques, technical functions & Curaytor products. This dictionary will be a very helpful guide to understanding these different terms & phrases. 

Learning the How to Navigate our Marketing Tools:

 Curaytor provides our website management & maintenance, email blast tool, brain (a content library to be explained in another article) & more. We access all of these marketing tools through our Curaytor platform website (which we refer to as the "back-end of our website"). This training teaches you how to navigate this platform and access these different tools.

You can ignore the references to the "Convert" tool at this time. Convert is a Curaytor tool used by our sales agents to track the activity of potential clients within our database & their interaction with our materials. 

Creating Pages on Our Website:

 We created pages on our website frequently as a part of our marketing efforts. This will mainly be the job of the Marketing Director but it is important to know the basics of how the website works. The only time you should need to work with the back-end of the website would be if you needed to create a back-up listing page on our website. We already have a template for this & it would just need to be manipulated. 

How to use the Curaytor "Brain" Tool: 


Curaytor's "Brain" tool is very useful for finding successful content ideas. It is a success library of Facebook ads and emails sent from top producing agents using the Curaytor systems, you can see which ads and emails have been most successful within Curaytor's group of hundreds of top agents.
