SHORBY FOR INSTAGRAM


In real estate, social media is key, which is why we offer all agents a free "link in bio" for Instagram. This clickable link in your bio provides one-click access to your website page, buyer & seller guide downloads, home valuation tool, and contact information. Once your Shorby link is created, we’ll send you a separate email with instructions on how to install it.

ORDER SIGNAGE (OPTIONAL)


We offer a variety of signage options for purchase, as well as free design-only options! You can easily order and pay for riders, for sale signs, directionals, and more through our online agent store.   Orders have a lead time of 7-14 days, so if you anticipate needing signage you'll want to order as soon as possible.  We’ll design, order, and deliver your signage directly to the office, or you can choose the free design option and print it wherever you prefer!

PLACE YOUR ORDER

EXPLORE OUR WEBSITE


We provide all agents with a complimentary website page designed to make you shine online! Your page will include a biography, contact information, industry stats, reviews, an instant home valuation tool, and a buyer & seller guide download. It’s synced to FollowUpBoss, making it easy to generate leads. If you haven’t already, we recommend visiting our website to see what your page will look like and how to use these tools. Once your website is built, we’ll email you the link for review and approval before it’s published.

UPDATE YOUR SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORMS


Don't be a "secret agent", consider making your profiles "public" so you can be easily found.  Once your license is officially transferred, be sure to update your contact information and workplace on your platforms to stay connected.

JOIN A REALTOR BOARD WITHIN 7 DAYS


Join or update your membership with the Maine Association of REALTORS Board. If you're already with a REALTOR Board, notify them of your switch to MREC within 7 days.

If you're newly licensed and not yet a member, you must join a board within 7 days of joining MREC. MREC is a member of the Greater Portland, York County, Mountains to Shore, and Bangor boards—choose the one that best suits you.

UPDATE YOUR VOICEMAIL


Once your license is officially transferred, please update your voicemail greeting to indicate your name and agency.

BUSINESS CARDS


As part of our onboarding process, we'll set you up for success with a complimentary pack of business cards! Once you’ve used them up, you can reorder more through our agent shop or get a free copy of your design to print wherever you prefer.  The lead time for printing is 7-14 business days. We’ll send you a separate email soon to review and approve your business card design before printing!
