Training for Virtual Assistants to Bring Further Growth in Real Estate Industry

Team Double-Click® Bolsters the National Institute of Webographers' Virtual Assistance Competency as a Corporate Sponsor

Lodi, WI (November 8, 2006) – The National Institute of Webographers has chosen Team Double-Click®, the country’s leading virtual staffing agency, as a corporate sponsor. Considered the "go to" staffing agency of the real estate industry, Team Double-Click® is providing the materials and expertise for professionals training to become certified REAL ESTATE WEBOGRAPHERS™.

"We are thrilled to showcase Team Double-Click's virtual assistant services to the candidates of the REAL ESTATE WEBOGRAPHER™ certification. Given the array of web-centric technologies on the market, real estate professionals may not have the time to maintain and upkeep technology. Virtual assistants represent the ‘human side’ of real estate technology; providing administrative support to real estate professionals looking to relieve themselves of tasks that may take time away from their core duties of working with clients; where their skills can be best utilized,” says Marc Grayson, president of The National Institute of Webographers.

Business leaders hail virtual assistants (VAs) as one of the most valuable and cost-effective tools available to real estate agents and small businesses. Real estate pioneer, Michael Russer, recently stated, "When you do something outside of your core competency, you're paying top dollar for amateur results." Real estate executives are heeding the expert’s warning. Given that more than 75 percent of Team Double-Click’s clientele is comprised of real estate professionals, it is clear that businesses see virtual outsourcing as a top priority in order to grow their business and free up their time.

Team Double-Click® is popular for its rigorous screening, interviewing and training process to add to its pool of over 11,000 qualified professionals. The company, rather than simply telling its clients where to locate virtual assistants, matches the perfect VA to each client. Experts then monitor, nurture and fortify the client-virtual assistant relationship after placement.

“We’re very proud of what the company has put together in the way of real estate client services,” says Gayle Buske, President and CEO of Team Double-Click® Buske adds, “Our partnership with The National Institute of Webographers will ensure that real estate professionals have access to the technological knowledge necessary to compete in a demanding market.”
