Press Release
Response to Latest Competitive Deployment
Houston, TX - December 30, 2006 - In response to the aggressive move by the competition to urgently upgrade their systems to include many of the features and functions similar to those pioneered by AccuShow in the recent months, AccuShow and PropertyShowings.com announce the Switch Your Listings program, which allows any agent or office to switch listings to AccuShow from another provider at no cost. To transfer the listings, AccuShow will simply require to see the competitor's invoice.
Alex Nizhni, AccuShow.com spokesperson and CEO said, "We are not very much pleased with the rest of the flock making their moves so quickly, but that was expected and we applaud to the swift response. We will continue developing yet new methods to stay ahead of the competition, and we are convinced that this will not be difficult. The difficult part may only come if the industry politics kick in and a pricing war develops. Interestingly, a typical new corporate or board client will normally come to us mainly to gain a lower price. Many want a flat price for unlimited listings. This is not wise. I know that our competition recognizes this as well. This is not wise because in the context of today's still hefty commission check, ten bucks per listing versus twenty means nothing; but ten showings versus eleven or twelve mean an extra week or two on the market. How much is an extra showing worth to you and your client? If it's a nickel, you may be best off sleeping next to your mobile phone, scheduling your own showings, and going to Mickey D's. If it's a dime, you use a generic brand and eat at Denny's. If it's a quarter, you go to PropertyShowings.com and simply eat out more often because your DOMs [days on market] are lower and you close more."
