YachtMinder's successful business model is designed so our agents list the type of yachts they know the best, our effective marketing plan then delivers each sales lead to the listing agent.  The applied dynamic being that our agents consistently interact with the type of buyers and sellers they share the most in common with.  The result is that 90% of our listings are sold with the listing agent serving both the buyer and the seller.  This promotes non-adversarial purchase negotiations, prompt and clear broker facilitated communications between buyer and seller, expedient closings, satisfied clients, and the highest possible agent earnings per sale.

A product of three years research and development, YachtMinder's business structure and marketing methods are proven by seven years of successful application.  Because our methods allow our agents to stay focused on working with buyers for their specific listings we repeatedly sell nearly all of our brokerage Inventory.  (Often before our sales inventory can be fully replenished). 

We are expanding our California and Washington State sales staff and invite those with a proven background in yacht sales to apply.


YachtMinder's Proven Methods Provide Superior Results

 

YachtMinder’s elegant and unique marketing presents all advertising for our listings so that each sales inquiry goes to the Listing Agent for the specific yacht. This effective approach immediately connects all prospective buyers with the brokerage agent that knows the particular yacht the best.  


 The Details of our Methodology:

  • Our Listing Agents establish a rapport with the seller and personally inspect the yacht to compose detailed listing specifications, inventory list, and the photos used for our specifications brochure and an on-line photo tour of the yacht.  This process provides our agents with a comprehensive and first-hand knowledge about each of their listings.  Thus by directing all buyer interest in the yachts we present for sale to the listing agent, each of our selling clients can be assured that all prospective buyers for their yacht will consistently receive a qualified response to their inquiries.

  • Each buyer inquiry goes directly to the Listing Agent's cell phone.  Not only does this ensure a prompt and knowledgeable response to all inquiries, it supplies each YachtMinder Agent with the real-time market input required to keep their selling clients well informed throughout the sales cycle.

  • YachtMinder produces professional .PDF (Adobe) brochures for each listing.  Proofed for accuracy and easily emailed or printed from the YachtMinder website, these Adobe formatted brochures allow us to quickly distribute a polished presentations for each of our listings to our database of prospective buyers, and to other yacht brokers. 

  • YachtMinder employs a comprehensive International marketing program for its listings that include a detailed on-line presentation of the yacht's specifications and a carefully crafted photo tour at our in-house website.  We then create custom Web- Ads that link to our main website presentations and post these Web-Ads to the most popular yacht sales web sites: the Yacht Brokerage MLS (YachtWorld), boats.com, BoatsUS, and to our high volume advertising venues on Yahoo.com, Google.com, and Craig's List. 

  • Each YachtMinder on-line listing display includes our proprietary formula for presenting a virtual showing photo tour.  When a photo tour is accessed our website simultaneously transmits the viewer's specific contact information to the Listing Agent's cell phone.  Then by responding in real-time with a phone call to the contact, our listing agents transform each photo tour of their listings into a personalized multi-media sales presentation. 

  • The attractive all-weather "Yacht For Sale" signs that we display aboard each listing prominently display the listing agent's name, cell phone number, and the Internet location for downloading a brochure and viewing a photo tour of the yacht.  Like the rest of our advertising, our signage provides each prospective buyer with an an on-the-spot ability to contact the listing agent for each yacht we offer for sale, regardless of business hours.

  • Therefore, from anywhere and at any time, each YachtMinder agent may immediately respond to all interest in their listings, and each of our selling clients can be assured that no sales opportunities for their yacht will be missed.

  • YachtMinder's unique ability to collect buyer contact information continually adds to our listing-specific database of prospective buyers.  We use this database to notify relevant groups of buyers when new information becomes available about a yacht they had expressed an interest in, and to notify them when we acquire a new listing that fits a previously indicated interest. 

  • Proactive use of our buyer database to promote new listings has proven to be a very effective tool for quickly generating buyer interest in advance of our broader range of marketing.  (Note: We do note share our buyer database information with any third parties).

  • In addition to promoting expedient sales, the result of our methods is that 90% of our listings are sold with the listing agent serving both the buyer and the seller.  This ensures a non-adversarial atmosphere for purchase negotiations, prompt and clear broker facilitated communications between buyer and seller, expedient closings, and the highest possible agent earnings per sale.

  • Each YachtMinder sales agent either is (or becomes) licensed by the state of California as a Yacht Salesperson sponsored by YachtMinder's California Yacht Broker's license.  Although necessity for California based yacht sales agents, we require the same of our Washington based agents as well.  We do this so all of our agents may represent sellers in both states, and to underscore the unified integrity of our credentials (California is the only state in the US that requires yacht brokers and sales agents to pass a rigorous licensing exam and an extensive background check). Each YachtMinder sales agent must also be a knowledgeable yachtsman, and have a well proven ability to facilitate equitable yacht sales.

  • YachtMinder's managing Broker-of-Record, James Taylor, has been involved in yachting approx. 50 years (since childhood).  James has been successfully engaged in yacht brokerage for fifteen years, and has owned and managed YachtMinder since 2001.  James holds YachtMinder's  California Yacht Broker's License, Washington State Vessel Dealership License, California Yacht Broker's Association Master Membership, and he administers YachtMinder's Trust Account services.  James reviews each YachtMinder agreement for compliance with regulations, and is on call for each YachtMinder sales agent (24/7).
