BB PLUS FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Note: the MLS Lookup feature is only available to Breakthrough Broker Plus members.

On listing marketing templates, users can enter their MLS listing number into the tool and watch as the template populates with their listing’s details and photos.

Three very important things to note when using the MLS Lookup tool:

1. The MLS Lookup tool connects to most, but not all, MLSs. To find out if yours is connected, follow these instructions. Looking up your MLS number will bring in all your photos; however, it will only populate the number of photos slots on the template, starting with photo #1 from the MLS.
   

2. Clicking on any photo will bring up the gallery, where you can select from all your MLS photos.
   

3. Proofread carefully before saving or printing your templates. MLS Lookup brings in the details from your MLS, but depending on the template and the length of your details (especially property description), some auto-filled information can get cut off. Make sure that the template looks exactly like you want it to, especially before sending it off to a print shop. Breakthrough Broker is not responsible for orders with typographical errors, either from your MLS listing or from an autofill detail that gets cut off.

Clicking this allows you to select single agent, two-agent, or team versions of the template. If you have filled out your profile, the template will automatically populate with the appropriate headshots, logos, and information.

Headshot & Logo Library

If you have multiple headshots or logos that you use often, you can upload them into your headshot and logo library, located in your profile. You can upload up to four headshots and up to three logos.
