The online CMA can be created in mere minutes and functions as its own unique, password-protected website. Property information includes full descriptions and details from the Multiple Listing Service, as well as all photos of the property, making it easier for clients to have a firm grasp of the market competition. Dynamic mapping shows positions of all comparable properties in relation to the listing.

Agents have the ability to add custom content, including recent sales, a biography, client testimonials, a customized marketing plan, and much more. The information is stored, thus avoiding the need to repeatedly recreate the analyses, saving agents a tremendous amount of time. Pages and sections can be added or removed as needed, and an expiration date may be added in order to stay current in a rapidly-changing market.

Sellers may refer to the CMA after a listing appointment from anywhere they wish. The entire CMA is optimized for viewing on a tablet computer, such as the iPad, but also works beautifully and seamlessly from a desktop or laptop computer as well.

“Off-the-shelf products didn’t address the dynamic aspects of the San Francisco marketplace. We envisioned a far more robust interface and content, so we spec’d, wrote, designed and developed this unique tool to address the specific needs of our agents and clients,” commented Melody Foster, Zephyr’s Director of Marketing and Web Development. “We are delighted by the enthusiastic response to this latest web tool and its efficacy for our community.”

San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) September 20, 2011

Moving and Storage Company Gentle Giant Moving Company, an award winning local and interstate mover, today announced that revenues for its San Francisco regional operations, known in the Bay Area as Great Giant, exceeded expectations for the first six months of business. Aggressive goals were set for the regional office based on the San Francisco real estate market, competition from numerous other moving companies with established reputations in the area, as well as the consistent growth of the company’s other West Coast Seattle Moving Company Gentle Giant in Seattle, Wash.

After formally establishing a local moving presence in the Bay area in February of 2011 with a branch on the Central Waterfront area of San Francisco, Great Giant has experienced steady growth in revenue and demand for its professional moving services. A strong local renters market combined with positive word-of-mouth have helped enable the company to increase the number of jobs, as well as the number of employees in the region. Great Giant Moving Company now employs 5 highly trained moving crew members and drivers.

The Boston based Gentle Giant has leveraged its highly successful long distance moving business with its desire to grow local moving service for Great Giant in San Francisco by working in tandem with Regional Manager Brandon Sparks on interstate moving jobs whenever the opportunity arises

“Although local moves are new for Great Giant in San Francisco,” Sparks explained, “we have been working throughout this community for years via Gentle Giant’s interstate business. Many folks in San Francisco know the GG brand, and the high quality service that goes with it.”

The company’s even growth and the spreading of its positive reputation and has been spurred by the strong internet user community in the San Fran area who frequently write about their positive experiences with Great Giant on popular review sites such as Yelp and Angie’s List. In addition, the company has immersed itself in the community by becoming involved in events like the SharkFest Swim and the Escape the Rock Triathlon.

“I helped develop Gentle Giant’s positive presence in Seattle,” noted Sparks, “and the key is providing a superb work environment for our people. This allows us to focus on creating life-long loyalty in our customers, and I’m delighted that we have such a great opportunity for success in San Francisco.”

Gentle Giant has been serving its customers with a blend of high quality care and speedy, athletic ability that differentiates the company in the industry. The award winning mover has operated for more than 30 years, but it was not until 2005 that the company expanded outside of New England. Its strategy in new regions is to start small and build a strong reputation by changing what people expect from a moving company.

“The mission of Gentle Giant is to create a positive experience through great service and to create growth opportunities for employees,” said Gentle Giant Founder and CEO Larry O’Toole. “The company invests in solid, proven employees like Brandon and his team, and our customers benefit from that.”
