RTV is fantastic!
I just joined the RTV family in January and I have been very pleased with the support,and the technology that RTV provides.
I feel fortunate to have opportunity to have such a great group of people helping me to develop a virtual tour business in my area.
As a portrait photographer for over 20 years and feeling somewhat burned out, I have been stimulated to learn and plan to prosper in a completely different aspect of the photography industry. Keep up the great work!

RTV rocks!
I've been a realtor for over 25 years and always wanted a platform where I could put together exciting tours for showcasing homes. Most of the media out in cyberspace is, well, just plain uninteresting.
Unlike Adobe products where you need several years of training (at least I did) to understand, RTV's platform is so simple to work with. You can create the most dazzling tours, panoramas, see through window shots. What they do is pure eye candy.
And a huge bonus is their online webinars and continuing education on various media enhancements. I'd give RTV a high five.

RTV is an amazing company. I've only been with them for about 2 months now. The service they offer is top notch. I've been doing virtual tours for about 3 years and have tried just about every software on the market. The system that RTV offers is the easiest and best. The tour window is amazingly smooth and full of great information.

I have been a virtual tour provider for several years. Real Tour Vision is hands down the best virtual tour company in the industry. RTV provides lighting fast support, online seminars that are fun and informative on various topics like marketing, photography techniques, business strategies, and the product the product is fantastic to boot.
The major draw for me is that they offer a system for businesses like myself that streamlines the entire tour process from shoot to production to hosting. They even send my customers weekly stats. As a provider with RTV they often send me leads and direct jobs through their partnership with Choice Hotels.
My company produces a lot of virtual tours, and I could not do it as efficiently any other way. There are other virtual tour building software companies, hosting companies, panoramic stitching software companies, equipment companies, and it is possibly to spend a lot of time and money putting together your own system that works. But you won't find a single system that works for you like RTV does. You won't find a system built from the ground up specifically for Real Estate photography. You really can't do any better if your in the business and depend on quality AND quantity with a fast turnaround for your customers.
Is there room for improvement in their system? Yes. They aren't a huge corporation with an unlimited budget. But they listen to the needs of their customers, prioritize their upgrades, and always surprise me with new and improved services.

I have had the pleasure of working with Jason and the RTV staff. I continue to be impressed by their dedication to prompt and courteous service. They strive to provide the very latest technology in virtual tours and online marketing. I have over 3 years experience working with Rtv as a virtual tour provider and my success in the business is due in large part to the personable service and support I receive from Jason LaVanture and his staff.

I discovered RTV after going through the economic downturn and a layoff, subsequently losing my home and the death of my father all at once in 2008. Needless to say, I did not want to waste any money on some fly by night venture. RTV has proved to be one of the biggest blessings of my life! I eventually went back to work in my field, and still do this business part time, which will eventually be my full time business. Jason LaVanture is without a doubt one of the most honest, straightforward businessmen I have ever met. His staff defines the meaning of technical support. When you join RTV, you join a family. They are a no pressure, learn as you go, extremely positive group, and it is contagious. Everyone I meet, whether it is a fellow RTV dealer, or the folks at RTV in Traverse City, is ready to help in any way they can. I highly recommend them as a media consultant, a virtual tour provider, SEO guru, a franchise business, but most importantly, as a friend.

I found Real Tour Vision on getphotographyjobs.com and have been overwhelmingly pleased with the technology and systems for starting a virtual tour business. Their communication has been excellent in setting up my business. I have been given national account business and leads on local business. Within the first few months on board, I am well on my way to doing 20+ tours. Thank you RTV for all you do to help me be successful.

Thomas,
Thank you so much for the nice comment. Your photography is simply amazing: http://tgainesphotography.blogspot.com/ and I know that the moment Jacque saw your website she knew she had to have you on board with us. Thank you for seeing the benefit of adding the RTV platform to your business and I hope the few leads that we have sent you is just the beginning. Thank you for all that you do.
Yours Sincerely,
Jason

As a newcomer to the virtual tour industry I have really done my homework on the virtual tour business. Not only does RTV strive to stay ahead of the competition with the most current technology, but RTV's training and support is quite unbelievable. The support that RTV's staff provides, combined with the multitude of field tested technical and marketing techniques they offer practically guarantees success to anyone willing to put in the time, investment and effort. Go RTV and you will always be looking forward and never back.

After ten years of being a professional photographer and owning my own studio, I realized I was ready for a change. I wanted to continue using my degree in photography and my years of experience but I did not want to be tied to a brick and mortar type of business. I realized that virtual tours would be a great opportunity to do that but I also knew I didn't want to recreate the wheel. I needed a partner who would allow me to do what I do best -- take awesome photographs -- and not have to spend all my time learning a new business.
After more than a year researching virtual tour technology and about two dozen emails and phone calls with Jason LaVenture, there was no doubt that RTV, Inc was the only choice for me. I am sure Jason had long given up on me by the time I placed my order but not once during that year did he give me anything other than his complete attention when I called with my endless questions.
We began the virtual tour business while working a full time job but our first big break came from a chance meeting in the grocery store. My wife met the owners of a cabin rental agency in the area where we lived. They had been considering adding virtual tours and we explained that we were willing to give them a super low price if they would let us use them as our guinea pigs. We ended up doing over 40 tours for this company in about six weeks while working my full time job. With that many tours, we learned how awesome RTV technology really is...and at the same time, we earned back our initial investment in the virtual tour technology. Over the next few months in business, we made an effort to do something each day to learn more and build our business and quickly realized that it was time to make the move to doing virtual tours full time.
Since the beginning of 2011, we have replaced two full time incomes and shot over 100 tours. Rather than focusing on real estate agents, we have focused on businesses. We have created a niche marketing virtual tours to healthcare, hospitality and education and have had the opportunity to photograph in 26 states in less than six months.
Our initial cabin rental company was an opportunity for us to build our portfolio and learn the system so it did not matter that we charged such a low price. That volume in such a short time meant we got to truly test the limits of the RTV technology and perfect our system of shooting and building tours. What it also did was allow us to showcase our work and gave RTV an idea of what we have to offer. When another cabin rental agency in our area called RTV and asked for a photographer to do tours for their 30 cabins, Jacque Burke of RTV called, emailed, texted and sent messages to us on Facebook because she knew we were the perfect fit! We sent samples of our work to the client and the next day began shooting for them. This time around, we shot all 30 tours in less than two weeks in between about 20 other shoots.
For anyone considering the virtual tour business, there is no question that RTV is the partner you want beside you. The technology is just the beginning. The training is fantastic. Even though I have a degree in photography and have been a professional photographer for 12 years, I learn something new every single time I watch a webinar. The technology has grown with us and is always on the cutting edge. We are confident that no one can beat the product we have to offer.
Thanks RTV for helping us live our dream!

This has to be one of the most heartfelt testimonials I've ever read. Thank you both so much for everything that you do and bring to the table. I love the show we did together the other night and could not be happier with the turn out. Keep up the good work and I'm looking forward to meeting you two some day when Heather and I come down to the Smokey Mountains again.
Yours sincerely,
Jason

First and foremost, the personal attention from the core staff is tantamount to none. If RTV were a hotel, it would be featured in every issue of Hotel Business Magazine in the foreseeable future for its exceptional service. I was surprised and very pleased by the continued effort of RTV to make working with them hassle free. The prompt email responses and immediate problem solving phone calls almost makes having an issue worth it just to get it resolved.
I do enjoy being associated with RTV and I would/do recommend their services to anyone.

When I decided to launch my photography business the first action I took was to look for a company who could provide the technical and marketing support I knew I needed. I must say I did an excellent job in selecting RTV. The support staff, especially Ben Knor has provided service far beyond my expectations; and I expect a lot!! Every question I posed was responded to in clearly, concisely, and in most instances in less than 24 hours. Ben's patience with my never ending questions was incredible.
RTV provides an abundance of technical and marketing materials and support that has been extremely helpful to me in improving my visibility and my photographic techniques. There is not a company out there that provides the kind of support I have been given. To say "I highly recommend RTV" seems like a gross understatement.

Plaisance Photography became a full service dealer of RTV, Inc. after several moths of working in the real estate photography business alone. Since partnering with RTV in 2009 I have seen my business grow and expand in a way that I could have never accomplished without RTV. Their virtual tour software is truly the most professional and attractive looking presentation I have seen in this industry and the training and support offered by the company is amazing. Any company will provide you with training on how to use their equipment and software but RTV actually provides training and support on every aspect of growing and running a successful Virtual Tour Company. If you are looking to partner with a Virtual Tour Company to help you grow your business I encourage you to join the RTV team. You will be so glad you did!!

DigitalVision360 became an RTV dealer in January 2011, and we've been extremely impressed with the marketing and technical expertise they have provided to us. I've become a better photographer thanks to their help, and our affiliation with RTV has definitely helped open customers' doors to us. RTV continually introduces new products and services. This helps us demonstrate to prospective customers that our company is a recognized leader in the real estate photography field. A huge volume of marketing materials is available, at no cost, to download and customize for our specific needs. The company offers frequent webinars on their products and services, marketing techniques, and the technical aspects of the business. The webinars are always recorded for later download. We strongly recommend RTV to anyone who is starting up a real estate photography business.

RTV has outstanding customer service. They are always quit to respond to any changes or updates we have for our 10 websites. Their pricing is very reasonable and the BEST part about RTV, is that they 'get it'. There is not a whole lot of time wasted in trying to explain what you want! They understand and are quick to respond. I would highly recommend them.

Tours D' Force, a Lenawee County based virtual tour company has been a provider of Internet marketing services since August 2009. At that time, the company partnered with RTV (Real Tour Vision) in an effort to provide the best products and services possible. RTV combines all aspects to provide a more comprehensive approach to increasing customer awareness.
The experienced staff at RTV is comprised of experts with over 15 years of experience. RTV is recognized as the leader in virtual hardware and software in the world. They do not only train the dealers how to build High Quality virtual tours, but also how to get the maximum exposure on the Internet through cooperation with All of the Team at RTV. No other company or property marketing solution can match their level of property marketing exposure simply because they do not have access to RTV’s network of actively social networking business owners.

As an RTV dealer, I have only to call RTV with any problems I have, or better yet, use Skype and I get connected or a call back very quickly. Skype especially is almost instantaneous. As far as the problems are concerned, support is outstanding. If you're an RTV dealer or thinking about it, I couldn't recommend a better company to be working with to make your business grow and be successful.

4 years ago I began the search for a home based business, preferably in photography. I heard about the virtual tour business and RTV. After researching other virtual tour software, we decided to use Real Tour Vision because of the quality of the virtual tour. I have been 100% satisfied with that decision. The service before and after the sale has been tremendous. They have continuing education for dealers on photography and growing your business. The virtual tour is easy to navigate and has full screen capabilities. RTV is also my best customer with the Tour Track program for dealers.
Thanks, RTV and keep up the good work!

As a hotel owner it is very important for us to have the best images and virtual tours on our website yet keep costs for our services down. When Choice announced that RTV, Inc was the supplier of hotel virtual tours internationally we were very pleased and especially so with the results.
Thank you RTV for all that you do. Your tour track team took great care of us and we just love how fast your virtual tours load and especially the HD, hit reports, and your new V Slide. It all helps in us keeping our hotel booked year round.
Keep up the good work!
Mike
