Testimonials
Where commercial real estate professionals go to get the deal done.
Results-minded professionals nationwide praise the way SHOWCASE reaches more prospects and generates more leads for their listings. Here’s a brief look at what a few of the many satisfied SHOWCASE subscribers are saying:
We’ve seen a definite up tick in leads due to SHOWCASE.
Posting our sign is usually all it takes to lease the properties we represent. But recently we decided to give SHOWCASE a try with a pair of office listings I had – one for 2,500 SF, the other for 1,000 SF. Within two weeks of listing on SHOWCASE, I had a quality lead for the 1,000 SF unit. A short time later we had a signed lease. We’ve seen a definite up tick in leads due to SHOWCASE. We’re very happy with SHOWCASE.

Performance reports keep owners happy.
SHOWCASE is such a logical, cost-effective concept. Take the performance reports. In this economy, it’s more important than ever for owners to know about the number of views their listing generates. I trust the information. That saves me time and trouble. SHOWCASE is phenomenal!

Same Marketing Clout As The Big Boys.
I’m on my way now to give a tour of a space the tenant found through our SHOWCASE listings on Google. It’s a physician looking at 5,000 sq. ft. at $28 a sq. ft NRA. It’s a great lead, typical of SHOWCASE. It’s safe to say 90% of our leads come from CoStar. We’ve seen our commissions triple since we signed on with CoStar four years ago. They’re a life saver.
SHOWCASE means a lot as we expand into new markets across the state. With SHOWCASE, we know investors nationwide see our for-sale listings. Owners like the idea their properties have high visibility on Google and Yahoo. Showcase gives our shop the same marketing clout as the big boys.

Small shop wins big space deal with SHOWCASE lead.
I recently leased an office to a publicly-traded company from a SHOWCASE lead. We’re a small shop, so a deal like that not only builds our credibility, but may also mean quality referrals from the tenant I placed. SHOWCASE verifies data. I would not have come in contact with a company like this without SHOWCASE.
I also use SHOWCASE to pitch landlords for exclusives. SHOWCASE is a broker-only tool, so I can offer landlords marketing exposure they can’t get on their own. The reports SHOWCASE provides about all the prospects that view my listings help in the presentation and require no work on my part. SHOWCASE pays for itself with just one deal a year. To me, a subscription to SHOWCASE is a no-brainer.

There’s a definite 'wow factor'.
I believe we were one of the first in the Denver area to subscribe to SHOWCASE. I knew right away that SHOWCASE would be a quick way to differentiate ourselves in a crowded market. The fact SHOWCASE comes from CoStar plays very well with many of the owners I represent. They respect the CoStar name, so there’s a definite “wow factor” when I present SHOWCASE in pitches for exclusives.
In the last 30 days, I’ve received several quality leads and a deal is brewing from a SHOWCASE lead. Just as important, though, is the way SHOWCASE sets our brand apart from competitors. SHOWCASE is a powerful edge in winning new business and keeping the business I have. I routinely show SHOWCASE performance reports to clients. They like to see how many hits their property is generating.
We’ve decided to commit to one Internet marketing service … and SHOWCASE is it. It’s our goal to be the top retail property brokerage in Denver. SHOWCASE is helping make it happen.

With a lead like this, you have to say yes.
About two weeks before our SHOWCASE demo, a national financial institution called us about a 25,000 sq. ft. space listing we had on CoStar. That sold us right there. If this kind of quality prospect searches CoStar, why not cast an even bigger net with SHOWCASE?

SHOWCASE delivers results!
We were an early SHOWCASE adopter. Within days of listing, we received a great lead from an office tenant. Within 30 days of that, we had a signed deal. We really like how SHOWCASE gives our listings priority placement on GoogleTM. The owners and retailers I represent want Google exposure. SHOWCASE delivers!

SHOWCASE reaches more prospects.
SHOWCASE is our primary marketing tool other than our sign. We generated leads from SHOWCASE almost immediately. Our experience is that SHOWCASE is a lot more effective in generating quality leads from serious prospects.
SHOWCASE helps us reach non-traditional markets like government agencies, non-profits and other end users. That’s huge for us. The fact is, end users more and more run their own searches on Google. SHOWCASE gives us great Google exposure. The more people who see our listings, the better. CoStar is just more dialed in to how shops like ours work today. We are very satisfied with SHOWCASE. We definitely get our money’s worth.

Just what the doctor ordered: Quality leads from serious prospects.
In the past few months we have marketed our listings on SHOWCASE, we have received numerous high-quality leads…including executing two agreements as a result of prospects finding our listings in Showcase.
The most valuable part of SHOWCASE is that the leads we get are both qualified and SERIOUS commercial prospects. SHOWCASE generates quality leads with serious intentions, and it is extremely cost effective. In this type of economy, that’s exactly what the doctor ordered. SHOWCASE is the ideal place to market property listings in a tough economy.

Google search lands a client, assignment and likely deal.
Within just a few weeks of listing my properties on SHOWCASE, I received an email from a qualified prospect who had run a search in Google and ended up seeing my SHOWCASE listing.
As it turns out, the prospect was an old business contact who I would have never reconnected with otherwise. As a result, I am now working on his behalf to find properties that meet his requirements, which I am confident will result in a
transaction.

Showcase wins leads & brokers respect.
SHOWCASE definitely adds a new, very positive element to our marketing efforts. It's nice to see my listings represented in a professional manner on SHOWCASE.COM, where I know many qualified prospects are visiting. I've received some good leads through this channel, and as we continue our subscription, I'm sure we'll get many more.
I know SHOWCASE is a relatively new product, and has become very popular for searching commercial real estate online. I have a lot of respect for a company like CoStar who puts the customer first.

Chicago broker books more tenant tours.
For us, SHOWCASE is a no-brainer, particularly for helping us reach prospective tenants interested in small and medium sized office space for lease. We've received numerous leads as a result of our SHOWCASE listings, which have resulted in tours and hopeful deals.
SHOWCASE produces results, and we plan to continue to leverage this channel for qualified lead generation for our firm.

"Unleaseable" space rents thanks to SHOWCASE.
Our SHOWCASE subscription paid for itself in days with a lead that we turned into a deal on a seemingly unleaseable basement suite. Plus, we’re landing new assignments and retaining current ones by letting owners know of the huge Internet exposure their properties have on SHOWCASE. SHOWCASE works!

Broker praises CoStar for helping sell major retail property.
Put simply, SHOWCASE works. We recently sold a high profile retail parcel in Southern California through a lead generated by CoStar. I’d strongly recommend this product to any broker or owner with commercial property to sell.

SHOWCASE takes less than 24 hours to generate quality lead.
We signed up for SHOWCASE, and in less than 24 hours we received a call from a qualified lead looking for office space for their company. The Internet has become such a focal point for prospects to turn to find space, we felt it was imperative to market our listings on SHOWCASE, and it is already paying off. Every broker needs to consider SHOWCASE as a piece of their marketing proposal for a landlord. I think it’s that important.
