3. Use RealScout links on your Website

Lots of agents use our shareable links on their website. You can hyperlink these urls to images or text. Either way its a great way to highlight specific areas you specialize in on your website. Your clients will be taken to your RealScout account and if you enable Forced Sign Ups, they'll need to sign up to search with you!
