CRL Live Demo | November Class | Public Appointment Requests | Cyber Monday


Here's a tasty treat for you this Halloween!

HomeGauge has tricked out some marketing for our Create Request List (CRL) feature that you can use to get more tasty inspection treats. We have a live CRL demo marketing page customized for you, the inspector, plus a printable page you can hand out to your agents. HomeGauge is the house on the street that gives out full-sized candy bars.

A Treat for Halloween - a new CRL demo

CRL live demo marketing page

By popular demand, HomeGauge's live CRL demo has arrived! We have a marketing page set up that you can send to your agents that includes a link to the live demo. Your agents can try CRL themselves and see how easy it is to create their own request list directly from an inspection report.

Want your personalized CRL demo marketing page?

Get the link to your own CRL demo marketing page with your logo and contact info. You can send your custom link to your agents to promote your services. Besides having your logo and contact information, the personalized version removes the inspector search field, so it is just for you! Your logo and other information gets pulled in from your HomeGauge profile.

Printable CRL marketing page

We've made a document you can hand to your agents to explain how CRL can save them time and make their job easier. This has some of the same content as the marketing page on the website. There's an area where you can attach your business card to this page. This document is available on our website from the menu More Tools > Resources, or you can download it directly below.

Public Appointment Requests are here!

In case you were too busy making your Halloween costume and didn't see it last month, you can now give your customers and agents the power to request an appointment right from your own website! The appointment can afterward be downloaded directly into your software to start up your report. You can take a look at our September News Alert for the full details.

How do I get the public appointment request feature on my website?

Go to the page linked below on your HomeGauge.com Dashboard. Turn on Public Appointment Requests and click on the Save Settings button. Once that is done, you will see some code that you can copy and paste into the html code of your website. That's it — not scary at all!

Cyber Monday is creeping up!

Don't forget that next month on Monday, November 28th, we will be having our one day only Cyber Monday Specials. As always, we will only honor these for one day and one day only. If you snooze, you lose. No complaining, no whining, no crying to your daddy. We haven't been able to renew our contract yet with Betty Rose Bull to run our Cyber Monday Specials, but if you think she should come back, let us know and we'll increase our offer!




Until next time,
