Reminders on Dashboard Moved

Posted in General | No Comments »

16 April 2011

Hi Everyone, we moved the reminders position on the Dashboard to the right.  Many of you complained that when there are many reminders, it blocks the users from seeing the feeds.  This should solve this problem.  Thank you for your feedback.

Android App Updated to Ver 2.3 & An status update on iPhone App

Posted in General | 1 Comment »

14 April 2011

Hi everyone.  We are very excited to bring you yet another update to our Android app.  It is on version 2.3 now.  The new version brings the much needed functionality to add, update and delete listings on the road.  Hopefully, this makes it much easier for you and your users to keep listings updated throughout the day as you visit apartments.

To update your existing app, from your Android phone, go to App Marketplace -> My Apps -> YouGotListings Mobile.  From there, you should see the “Update” button.

We are moving onto the next feature already, and this one will be very cool.  Stay tuned.

iPhone App Status Update

We know many of you are waiting for the

iPhone app.  The good news is that is mostly ready.  We’ll be submitting it to the App Store for approval in the next day or so.  If things go smoothly, it’ll be available next week.  Again, stay tuned.

Zillow Feed is Almost Ready – Your Action Required!!

Posted in General | 3 Comments »

12 April 2011

If you have a premium account with us, we have good news for you.  Our Zillow feed is almost live.  With some help from Zillow, we are finally going to feed your listings to them.  Hopefully, this will provide you with another great source of leads.  Please read on, as your action might be required.

Full Address Will Be Displayed

Zillow requires that all listings disclose full address, which we know might be an issue to some of you.  While YGL cannot change Zillow’s policies, we want to give you control over your listings.  With our Zillow setup, you can choose to feed all listings, selected listings or not feed to them at all.  If you have an manager / admin account, you can access this option in Account -> Date Feeds.

To select particular listings you want to include IN the feed, you need to do two things:

1.  Change the Zillow Feed setting to “Yes” and only Listing Selection to “Only Listings Tagged with Zillow.com”.

2.  Tag listings you want to feed with “Zillow.com”

THE ZILLOW FEED WILL BE GOING LIVE IN THE NEXT 48 HOURS, IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO BE INCLUDED OR WANT TO SELECT PARTICULAR LISTINGS, PLEASE DO SO ASAP.

Is Your Custom Zillow Feed On?

We noticed many of you have the Zillow custom feed on.  This means your listings will not be included in our standard Zillow feed.  The custom feed allows you to feed to Zillow separately.  But be sure you know your custom feed is live on Zillow, otherwise, you should turn it off so your listings will be included with our standard Zillow feed.

New Email Subscription Management

Posted in General | No Comments »

12 April 2011

Many of you were confused with our previous email subscription model, especially how to re-subscribe if you accidentally unsubscribed.

To help you better control your email subscriptions, we just added the email subscription management feature into the YGL system.  The new feature allows you to easily manage what types of emails you would like to receive from YGL.

To access your subscriptions, go to Account -> Email Subscriptions.

Android App Updated + Ad Templates Optimized

Posted in General | No Comments »

26 March 2011

Android App Update

We have updated our Android app to allow you to add / edit leads.  Also, the new version allows you to view a lead’s assigned listings as well.  We are working on add / edit rental listings functionality and will make that available soon.

Ad Templates Optimized

Some of you reported that the newer ad templates are harder to post.  This is especially the case during peak hours when Craigslist is very busy.  We have optimized the newer templates.  We think it should make them easier to post.  Let us know if you are still having issues.

Our first $150 Custom Template is Out. Get Yours!

Posted in General | 1 Comment »

10 March 2011

A few weeks back, we offered custom templates for $150 / each.  The first one of those just came out.  It is very nice.

We also want to clarify that these templates are designed and programmed by a partner of ours, not by YGL directly.  We do not make money from this.  We want to offer you more options.

If you are interested, emails us at info@yougotlistings.com and we’ll put you in touch with the designer.

Our Android App is Now Available

Posted in General | 8 Comments »

07 March 2011

You were probably wondering why we’ve been pretty quiet in the last 2 months.  We were hard working on some very interesting things, which we will be gradually making them available in the next month or so.  Some of them, we believe will significantly boost your productivity.  Today we are excited to announce the first of these new tools, our very own Android application.

Our new Android app will allow you to easily search and access your listings and leads on the go.  Since you are always on the road showing apartments, you know how important it is to get up-to-date info on the road, and we hope this will help.

This new app is still at its early stage and missing many features.  Rest assured that we will be consistently improving it to make it a full featured power tool on your smartphone.  To download the app, go to App Marketplace, and search for “yougotlistings”.  If you like where we are going with this, we’d really appreciate it, if you can give our app a good rating.

If you have a iPhone, well, we’ll be coming out with an iPhone app too very soon.  Stay tuned.

HelloFax is the best way to sign documents and send faxes

Posted in General | No Comments »

28 February 2011

We want to introduce you to HelloFax.com, the best way to sign documents online and send faxes.  In real estate, you have to deal with lots of paperwork and documents at all times.  Often times, you need renters to sign something and send it to you quickly, or you might need to fax paperwork to landlords.  You know how much of a hassle that is.  People simply do not have access to fax machines these days.

HelloFax takes the pain out of signing and faxing documents online.  You can easily upload a document, sign it, then fax  or email that document to anyone.  It takes minutes and it’s dead simple.

We highly recommend you to give HelloFax a try.
