They share this knowledge with you in a way that is compatible with how they do business on your behalf. \u00a0If you could sit where I sit, you could see the connections that these members have. \u00a0I never cease to be amazed. \u00a0 <\/li><li><h4>What does ICI Real Estate stand for?<\/h4> It stands for Industrial, Commercial and Investment Real Estate. \u00a0Our service, though, also includes land, farms, businesses, financing and more. <\/li><li><h4>What&#8217;s the difference between my real estate board and ICIWorld.com?<\/h4> It has always been envisioned by us that there will always be a need for real estate boards and real estate board type listing services and for a world type real estate board type listing service. \u00a0However, we also know there is a lot more information that can be worked in the industry that can make people money than can be placed on real estate boards and typical Internet Listing Services. Some say 90% of apartment buildings in any area of the world are not on Real Estate Boards or typical Internet Listing Services which require certain written agreements be in place. \u00a0The same can be true for shopping centers, office buildings, businesses and much more. \u00a0You will find them on ICIWorld.com. \u00a0Why? \u00a0Because we have designed a service that fills the gap in the marketplace for commercial real estate information, not just listings. \u00a0Yes most of our members place their real estate board type listings on the service, but it gets rather exciting when information can be worked. \u00a0You will not find an $80,000,000 hotel complex on a real estate board. \u00a0You can find it on ICIWorld.com. \u00a0Information can be handled with the utmost discretion and confidentiality. \u00a0It is up to the broker. Every buyer that is in the marketplace should have their Wants placed. \u00a0An owner who is &#8220;thinking of selling&#8221; can call the broker and see if that person might look at his\/her property. These are the kinds of calls brokers in the past are not used to getting. A broker or salesperson who is getting a listing can post a message &#8220;coming for sale.&#8221; \u00a0You can say that their name will go on a list and when you get the listing signed you will call them to show it. The responses can be used mentioned in your listing presentation to help you get the listing! All the private for sale by owner properties in your area can be placed on the service. \u00a0However we suggest you have at the very least, verbal agreements, perhaps confirmed in writing that they agree to pay a commission, will cover your showing with an exclusive agreement, and agree to let you place their property on ICIWorld.com but without an address. \u00a0That way it remains confidential until you have a qualified buyer. \u00a0At that point you would contact the owner and put an agreement in place for showing the property. <\/li><li><h4>I don&#8217;t want to place the address. Can I do that?<\/h4> Yes. \u00a0In fact we recommend you do it that way to prevent people from doing direct to the owner. \u00a0Many owners prefer it that way too. This way a broker can qualify people before introducing them to the property. \u00a0Unlike a real estate board type listing service, where there is enough information to draw an offer, ICIWorld.com&#8217;s goal is to help the member brokers trigger calls. \u00a0It is more like an electronic equivalent of classified ads. <\/li><li><h4>I am on another major service that&#8217;s free. Why do I need ICIWorld.com?<\/h4> You need to ask yourself several questions. Is it compatible with how I do business. \u00a0Do they allow principals to advertise directly to the public? \u00a0You may helping to build and support a service that essentially will cut you out in the end. This service was built by brokers, for brokers to serve their clients. \u00a0It was not started as an advertising service. \u00a0Does its goals serve you completely? Does it handle information not just listings. \u00a0There have always been real estate board and free internet listing type services much the same as a real estate board. Is your information available to the public free when placed where it gets the highest exposure. Do they have a track record of sales. \u00a0ICIWorld.com publishes its members who have done deals. Do they publish their stats? \u00a0Do they show you the hits, the traffic on their site? \u00a0Many sites look great but are they producing results? Do they have as their mandate to grow the service if they run into hard times? Is the company over financed? \u00a0ICIWorld.com has no debt. \u00a0It was built that way on purpose because we have seen many companies come and go with millions of dollars in financing only to see this debt weigh them down. \u00a0Their overhead gets so high they can not maintain their original level of service. \u00a0They advertising either dries up or lowers and their expectations are not being met. They have no alternative but to close their doors. Is the company built on financing numbers that work today or projected for the future. \u00a0You are seeing a lot of dot.com companies in trouble and reducing work staffs and overheads. \u00a0They were not built on sound fundamentals. \u00a0ICIWorld.com&#8217;s overhead is small, ie: less than $100,000 per year. \u00a0We now have 600 members paying $240 per year. You do the numbers. There is no extra overhead for the next 600 members. <\/li><li><h4>Why do I need the training?<\/h4> ou can have a jet outside your door, but if you do not know how to fly it, you still are not going anyplace. There are ten concepts covered in our Training Program that will teach several things. The effective handling and dissemination of information as it applies to commercial real estate information world wide. Whether you are working for a REIT or Pension Fund or placing a &#8220;Have&#8221; for an industrial building, there are ways to work information that can make you money. Confidentiality and discretion are needed in this business. \u00a0We will show you how it is done and how for the first time in your real estate business life you can make money working information not just listings. Whether you are a beginner, intermediate or expert user of computers and technology we will bring you up another notch. We have had people who have been in the business for years profit immensely by applying some of these principles that are only taught in a one hour Training Program. \u00a0In fact the more well connected you are, the better opportunities you have to make a million dollars quite quickly. The Ultimate in Marketing on the Internet. \u00a0We have a saying that 95% of the brokers on the internet today have not really arrived on the internet in an effective fashion. \u00a0We will teach you how to be effective! Many people search around for the ways to do things and this costs time and money. \u00a0There are ways now to do most things on the internet absolutely free and we will show you how. Most people are overloaded with information in the world today. \u00a0Unless you learn the techniques to handle this, you will be overwhelmed. \u00a0There are ways to sort and store information so that it is immediately available at your fingertips. It is time saving. One technique shows you how to go twice as fast as anyone else on the internet, \u00a0 for the rest of your life. and more. <\/li><li><h4>If I have a problem, is there any help?<\/h4> Yes. \u00a0In fact we take pride in our personal service. \u00a0We thoroughly enjoy the opportunity to help you and we have been doing this since 1990 when we first started. \u00a0The training and help sessions are conducted in your office over the phone while you are on the internet. \u00a0We are also available by telephone. \u00a0Call now to get started or to ask for some help. <\/li><li><h4>What should I know about placing my information?<\/h4> There are several things that are a key to successful use of the Internet and ICIWorld.com. Renew your information once every 30-45 days. \u00a0Many people work the top half of the database and get so busy, they do not get down to the bottom where your information might be. By renewing your information, it will get circulated throughout the commercial real estate industry world wide. \u00a0When you place information, not only is it in searchable databases on the internet immediately, but instantly and automatically they are EMailed out to the industry by way of industry wide Free EMail List Services that the public can subscribe to freely. Because people are overloaded and overwhelmed with information there is certain information that should be placed to trigger responses. \u00a0People just do not have the time to follow up every bit of sketchy lead. \u00a0You must paint a picture for them immediately and their are ways to do that that will be covered in a Training Session. Because commercial real estate is so diverse and different from residential real estate, there are certain ways with key words, limited yet salient information that should and can be placed. \u00a0The idea is to flush out a qualified buyer and the proper information will do that. Only licensed real estate people may become members. \u00a0Our service follows the guidelines for identifying oneself on the service in accordance with generally accepted principles in the market place. There are guidelines that every licensed real estate broker and salesperson follow as provided by individual licensing bodies. <\/li><li><h4>I don&#8217;t see many ads in my area? Why do I need ICIWorld.com?<\/h4> Readership. \u00a0ICIWorld.com has among the highest of any site in the world of readership for commercial real estate information.

Because the listing went back to the top of the database and it got emailed out to the industry to new people who are subscribing all the time. <p>\u00a0<\/p> One broker got a call on an $18,000,000 quarry after three years. \u00a0If we had removed that ad arbitrarily he would have missed that contact.

They share this knowledge with you in a way that is compatible with how they do business on your behalf. \u00a0If you could sit where I sit, you could see the connections that these members have. \u00a0I never cease to be amazed. \u00a0 <\/li><li><h4>What does ICI Real Estate stand for?<\/h4> It stands for Industrial, Commercial and Investment Real Estate. \u00a0Our service, though, also includes land, farms, businesses, financing and more. <\/li><li><h4>What's the difference between my real estate board and ICIWorld.com?<\/h4> It has always been envisioned by us that there will always be a need for real estate boards and real estate board type listing services and for a world type real estate board type listing service. \u00a0However, we also know there is a lot more information that can be worked in the industry that can make people money than can be placed on real estate boards and typical Internet Listing Services. Some say 90% of apartment buildings in any area of the world are not on Real Estate Boards or typical Internet Listing Services which require certain written agreements be in place. \u00a0The same can be true for shopping centers, office buildings, businesses and much more. \u00a0You will find them on ICIWorld.com. \u00a0Why? \u00a0Because we have designed a service that fills the gap in the marketplace for commercial real estate information, not just listings. \u00a0Yes most of our members place their real estate board type listings on the service, but it gets rather exciting when information can be worked. \u00a0You will not find an $80,000,000 hotel complex on a real estate board. \u00a0You can find it on ICIWorld.com. \u00a0Information can be handled with the utmost discretion and confidentiality. \u00a0It is up to the broker. Every buyer that is in the marketplace should have their Wants placed. \u00a0An owner who is \"thinking of selling\" can call the broker and see if that person might look at his\/her property. These are the kinds of calls brokers in the past are not used to getting. A broker or salesperson who is getting a listing can post a message \"coming for sale.\" \u00a0You can say that their name will go on a list and when you get the listing signed you will call them to show it. The responses can be used mentioned in your listing presentation to help you get the listing! All the private for sale by owner properties in your area can be placed on the service. \u00a0However we suggest you have at the very least, verbal agreements, perhaps confirmed in writing that they agree to pay a commission, will cover your showing with an exclusive agreement, and agree to let you place their property on ICIWorld.com but without an address. \u00a0That way it remains confidential until you have a qualified buyer. \u00a0At that point you would contact the owner and put an agreement in place for showing the property. <\/li><li><h4>I don't want to place the address. Can I do that?<\/h4> Yes. \u00a0In fact we recommend you do it that way to prevent people from doing direct to the owner. \u00a0Many owners prefer it that way too. This way a broker can qualify people before introducing them to the property. \u00a0Unlike a real estate board type listing service, where there is enough information to draw an offer, ICIWorld.com's goal is to help the member brokers trigger calls. \u00a0It is more like an electronic equivalent of classified ads. <\/li><li><h4>I am on another major service that's free. Why do I need ICIWorld.com?<\/h4> You need to ask yourself several questions. Is it compatible with how I do business. \u00a0Do they allow principals to advertise directly to the public? \u00a0You may helping to build and support a service that essentially will cut you out in the end. This service was built by brokers, for brokers to serve their clients. \u00a0It was not started as an advertising service. \u00a0Does its goals serve you completely? Does it handle information not just listings. \u00a0There have always been real estate board and free internet listing type services much the same as a real estate board. Is your information available to the public free when placed where it gets the highest exposure. Do they have a track record of sales. \u00a0ICIWorld.com publishes its members who have done deals. Do they publish their stats? \u00a0Do they show you the hits, the traffic on their site? \u00a0Many sites look great but are they producing results? Do they have as their mandate to grow the service if they run into hard times? Is the company over financed? \u00a0ICIWorld.com has no debt. \u00a0It was built that way on purpose because we have seen many companies come and go with millions of dollars in financing only to see this debt weigh them down. \u00a0Their overhead gets so high they can not maintain their original level of service. \u00a0They advertising either dries up or lowers and their expectations are not being met. They have no alternative but to close their doors. Is the company built on financing numbers that work today or projected for the future. \u00a0You are seeing a lot of dot.com companies in trouble and reducing work staffs and overheads. \u00a0They were not built on sound fundamentals. \u00a0ICIWorld.com's overhead is small, ie: less than $100,000 per year. \u00a0We now have 600 members paying $240 per year. You do the numbers. There is no extra overhead for the next 600 members. <\/li><li><h4>Why do I need the training?<\/h4> ou can have a jet outside your door, but if you do not know how to fly it, you still are not going anyplace. There are ten concepts covered in our Training Program that will teach several things. The effective handling and dissemination of information as it applies to commercial real estate information world wide. Whether you are working for a REIT or Pension Fund or placing a \"Have\" for an industrial building, there are ways to work information that can make you money. Confidentiality and discretion are needed in this business. \u00a0We will show you how it is done and how for the first time in your real estate business life you can make money working information not just listings. Whether you are a beginner, intermediate or expert user of computers and technology we will bring you up another notch. We have had people who have been in the business for years profit immensely by applying some of these principles that are only taught in a one hour Training Program. \u00a0In fact the more well connected you are, the better opportunities you have to make a million dollars quite quickly. The Ultimate in Marketing on the Internet. \u00a0We have a saying that 95% of the brokers on the internet today have not really arrived on the internet in an effective fashion. \u00a0We will teach you how to be effective! Many people search around for the ways to do things and this costs time and money. \u00a0There are ways now to do most things on the internet absolutely free and we will show you how. Most people are overloaded with information in the world today. \u00a0Unless you learn the techniques to handle this, you will be overwhelmed. \u00a0There are ways to sort and store information so that it is immediately available at your fingertips. It is time saving. One technique shows you how to go twice as fast as anyone else on the internet, \u00a0 for the rest of your life. and more. <\/li><li><h4>If I have a problem, is there any help?<\/h4> Yes. \u00a0In fact we take pride in our personal service. \u00a0We thoroughly enjoy the opportunity to help you and we have been doing this since 1990 when we first started. \u00a0The training and help sessions are conducted in your office over the phone while you are on the internet. \u00a0We are also available by telephone. \u00a0Call now to get started or to ask for some help. <\/li><li><h4>What should I know about placing my information?<\/h4> There are several things that are a key to successful use of the Internet and ICIWorld.com. Renew your information once every 30-45 days. \u00a0Many people work the top half of the database and get so busy, they do not get down to the bottom where your information might be. By renewing your information, it will get circulated throughout the commercial real estate industry world wide. \u00a0When you place information, not only is it in searchable databases on the internet immediately, but instantly and automatically they are EMailed out to the industry by way of industry wide Free EMail List Services that the public can subscribe to freely. Because people are overloaded and overwhelmed with information there is certain information that should be placed to trigger responses. \u00a0People just do not have the time to follow up every bit of sketchy lead. \u00a0You must paint a picture for them immediately and their are ways to do that that will be covered in a Training Session. Because commercial real estate is so diverse and different from residential real estate, there are certain ways with key words, limited yet salient information that should and can be placed. \u00a0The idea is to flush out a qualified buyer and the proper information will do that. Only licensed real estate people may become members. \u00a0Our service follows the guidelines for identifying oneself on the service in accordance with generally accepted principles in the market place. There are guidelines that every licensed real estate broker and salesperson follow as provided by individual licensing bodies. <\/li><li><h4>I don't see many ads in my area?

Because the listing went back to the top of the database and it got emailed out to the industry to new people who are subscribing all the time. <p>\u00a0<\/p> One broker got a call on an $18,000,000 quarry after three years. \u00a0If we had removed that ad arbitrarily he would have missed that contact. All messages are dated so you have a choice to look as far back as you want. <p>\u00a0<\/p> During presentations in offices, the phone starting to ring while we placing more listings on line for the broker. \u00a0 <p>\u00a0<\/p> Depending on your information, you can get some of the best calls within a week. <\/li><li><h4>Can it help me in Listing Presentations and How?<\/h4> Yes <br> First you can print out a list of buyers. \u00a0While other brokers competing with you state they may have buyers, but you can print out a list. \u00a0You can literally pick up the phone and start making appointments, it is that fast! Secondly you can print out Statistics in color. \u00a0Use November\/2000 for an example. \u00a0It will show the number of hits, 230,000 for November. \u00a0There is not another web site in the world that we know of getting this much readership that we personally know of. \u00a0Look at the maximum hits in one hour, one day! \u00a0Look at the third table down hits by day and the days of the month. \u00a0Look at the next table a bar chart showing the hits by the hour throughout the day. It will show the traffic and it also shows that even in the wee hours of the morning there is business going on. \u00a0It is like leaving the front door of your office open and there are people coming in 2-3-4-5-6am in the morning! The best part though is go to the bottom of the page. \u00a0You will see the countries of the world accessing the site daily! \u00a0It is incredible considering this was not possible years ago. \u00a0Now for only $240 per year you have this kind of reach! \u00a0We hear about stories all the time of people from all of these countries buying property. \u00a0Hey, that is why they came to the web site . . . to do business! \u00a0You will too! \u00a0It is just a matter of time and you learning how to work your information! Other brokers that you compete with will say they are on MLS, you will say you are on MLS, they do local advertising, you do local advertising. \u00a0They are on the Internet, you are on the Internet. \u00a0However the way you are on the Internet is significantly different than the way they are on the Internet. \u00a0Your information will be receiving 230,000 hits per month of traffic, there is no other site receiving this may hits for commercial real estate. <\/li><\/ul>","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/iciworld.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2013","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/iciworld.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/iciworld.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iciworld.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iciworld.ca\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2013"}],"version-history":[{"count":21,"href":"https:\/\/iciworld.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2013\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2839,"href":"https:\/\/iciworld.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2013\/revisions\/2839"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/iciworld.ca\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2013"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iciworld.ca\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=2013"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iciworld.ca\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=2013"},{"taxonomy":"post_folder","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iciworld.ca\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fpost_folder&post=2013"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
