We Want Your Input!

October 31, 2014 — Happybodyfood

The Relocation Specialist Advisory Councils will be meeting in the next few weeks, and we want your input.  The councils meet a few times a year to discuss ways to improve the Relocation Specialist software.  Though the members are the ones who will be discussing the agenda items at the meetings, we want to know what you think.  Most of the valuable software features have come as a result of the software users making suggestions.

Please let a member of the ReloSpec Team know your suggestions.  We are eager to continue improving this great software!

And, if you would be interested in serving on one of the Advisory Councils, let us know.  We meet 3-4 times per year during a telephone conference call that lasts about an hour.  There are typically 2-3 emails prior to and just after the meetings to review agendas and follow-up on meeting notes.  Let us know if you would like to join the Advisory Council.

Images Option; Add Client and Agent Pictures

October 17, 2014 — Happybodyfood

By now you have probably noticed the three new fields in the Referrals List page used for storing images of the agent(s) and the client.  These are because of the newly enhanced Images option.

The Relocation Specialist Images option has been used to “go paperless”.  It allows you to upload images of scanned contracts, BMAs, Word docs, PDF files or any file you want to associate with a referral record.  The Images option now includes the ability to upload pictures of Clients and/or Agents for use with outgoing forms.  So now when you want to send the updated ‘Client Notification of Agent’ form it will now include a picture of the agent along with the other agent details like Name, Email Address, Website, etc.

And, when you want to include a picture of your Client/Transferee with the new, simplified ‘Outgoing Information Sheet-F‘ you can!  This new form is a great way to send only the information needed for an outgoing referral.  And, it now may also include a picture of the client!

There is a new 7-minute Training Video with instruction on how to use these powerful new features.  We hope you enjoy the new features and the two new forms.

New ‘Incoming Info Sheet-K’; a Simple Version

October 7, 2014 — Happybodyfood

Do you need a short, simple version of the ‘Incoming Information Sheet’ for your agent and others?  Check out the new ‘Incoming Information Sheet-K’ which is a shortened version of the many other Incoming Information sheets.

This version includes the newest features including the ‘Click here to Respond’ link that allows the agent to send responses (if any) directly to your Responses page.  (No more copy/paste of emails!)  Plus, if you send this new form manually, without using the AutoPilot, ReloSpec will add a note automatically including the Date/Time, Who sent the form, the Email Address of where it was sent and which form was sent.  Cool!

To view a sample of this new form, click here.

You may now enter the agent’s website address in the Agents table and have it added to the Referral record when using the handy ‘Lookup’ link in the Referrals List page. This will work for Referring Agents or Assigned Agents.

And, when sending the FORM named ‘Client Notification of Agent’ the agent’s website address will be included along with the other contact information in the email!

Document When an Agent Rejects a Referral

September 25, 2014 — Happybodyfood

Need to keep track of the times when an agent rejects a referral? Many of you have used the Agents Notes table to enter the information, however now it is easier to enter and is more specific.

To record when the agent rejects a referral, click the AGENTS link on the left side of the Referrals List page, select the agent and click the ‘View Notes’ button.  The (Agents) Notes page will open.  Click ADD NEW and you’ll see two new fields, [Disposition] and [Description].  For the Disposition field you have a droplist with choices of “Accepted” or “Rejected”.  For the Description field you have another droplist with the following choices, “Price”, “Vacation”, “Too busy”, “Did not answer”, “Location” or “Referral Type”.

The option to add to the Agents Notes table is also on the ‘Lookup’ page that you use to find the agent to assign; Referring Agent or Assigned Agent.  So, if you already have one agent as the Assigned Agent but need to assign a different one, using the ‘Lookup’ page you can find the first agent add the “Rejected” note, then find the replacement agent, click the button and bingo, the new agent is in place and the previous agent has the “Rejected” note added!

Soon, the Agents Notes will be added to the Agent Scorecard reports so that you’ll be able to see the results for the agent within the date range along with the number of times the agent rejected a referral opportunity and the reason.

Process Checked Items in Responses Page

September 16, 2014 — Happybodyfood

You asked for it. You got it! In the beginning you could review the Responses page and click the button to “process” all the records you could see on the page.  (“Process” basically means that ReloSpec moves the records to the Notes table for each individual referral record.)

Then, we added the ability to process the records one at a time.  This has been a popular feature but many have asked for things to be faster!

Now, when viewing the items in the Responses page, just click the checkbox for each record you want to have processed.  Then, click the button at the bottom of the page that says “Process the CHECKED entries ONLY”.  Each of the items you checked will be processed, leaving the others you want to leave in the list.  You may process as many as you like at any time!

Now you can quickly process the ones you want and leave the others for further review.  Enjoy.

Automatic Note When Sending Forms Manually

August 28, 2014 — Happybodyfood

For those of you who are sending forms manually and need a note entered that documents what was sent and when, ReloSpec has the answer.  That is, for two forms to begin with.  In the past we have always recommended using the AutoPilot to send forms so that ReloSpec would document what was sent and when.  And, using an Action Plan is still the fastest way to insert a new AutoPilot item, even if it is for just one item.

But now, when you click FORMS, and select either the ‘Accounting Sheet Details’ or the ‘Outgoing Information Sheet w/Ack’, ReloSpec will insert a note into the Referral record with Who sent which Form to Whom.  All you do is open the form, insert an email address and SEND!

It is possible we will add this feature to more forms as they are requested.  Please let a member of the ReloSpec Team know if there are additional forms that should be considered to have this additional feature.
