Read MoreReal Estate Video Especially Important in Hawaii
A lot of realtors use video tours to market the properties they are promoting. But in Hawaii, nearly every property can be viewed online. Why? The answer should be obvious.

Read MoreLivestream Your Meeting or Seminar Worldwide
One of the biggest changes in the post-COVID world is the decline in business travel.

Read MoreVideo Has Changed the Game in Real Estate
About a decade ago, only a handful of realtors offered video tours of the properties they represented. Today, nearly all of them do. The rise of the use of video in real estate marketing was born out of the hugely favorable response from prospective home buyers. It didn't take long for people to realize they no longer had to schlep across the region looking at countless homes that by the end of the tiresome day all looked alike. Instead, they can simply look at their phone. Fast, Simp...
Read MoreShowcase Your Band’s Talents with Professional Video Production
