How does it work?

What’s the single most important thing about choosing a closing gift for your clients?

Is it to send something memorable so clients will think of you the next time they’re in need of real estate help? Or is it to send something unique so clients get a little zing of excitement when they open it (a wow-factor, if you will)? Or should your gift be helpful and aligned with a smooth transition to your clients’ new homes? 

I’d argue that it’s all of the above.

Hi, I’m Kathie. Over the past 20 years, I’ve watched how excited my sellers get when accepting great offers on their houses, and how thrilled my buyers are when I give them the keys to their new homes. 

But when it comes time for packing and moving… not so much.

So I created something that will help!

Designed for the do-it-yourself (DIY) mover, Moving Game Plans is the 7-step plan that gets your clients from one home to the next, frenzy-free!

It’s a mover’s best friend—a unique visual system that organizes and simplifies the packing, unloading, and unpacking process, saving your clients and their move teams hours (if not days) of precious time.

And it’s a game a couple OR the whole family can play—it even comes with game pieces! 

The Moving Game Plans color-coded system organizes and simplifies the moving process, helping to provide the smooth transition we want all of our clients to have when moving to their new homes. It assures that their belongings are delivered to the correct room, not unloaded into the garage for sorting after the moving crew is gone.

The kit’s Simple Move Chart—the actual game board AND one of the most critical components of the moving kit—is a water-resistant, poster-sized reference chart your clients’ moving crews will use to determine where to put every box in the house. It comes with its own set of glue dots so that it can be easily affixed to the front of the new home. Rolls of colored tape are included to mark each box according to which room they should be delivered. 

Watch this short Video to see how the color-coding system works to easily identify rooms. Note that you can actually see the color-coding from every angle, which makes unloading the truck quick and easy! The color-coding system can also be helpful when putting boxes in storage for later unpacking.

Did you know…

1. Moving is arguably one of the top 5 most stressful life events a person can experience (possibly one of the top three!).
2. According to the Census Bureau, 81% of all moves in the United States are at least partially DIY. This means that 4 out of 5 of your clients will appreciate this unique and memorable gift!

In our world of multicultural and multilanguage workers, homeowners can be assured that their belongings are delivered to the correct place in the house, and not just dumped in the garage or living room to be sorted over days, weeks, months, or even years. 

Why the world needs it?

In today’s climate, more and more people are opting for a hybrid of the DIY move; usually packing their belongings themselves, then hiring movers to do the heavy lifting. This hybrid style of move management is less expensive and gives homeowners more control over how their precious belongings are handled throughout the moving process.

Who wants it?

Moving Game Plans is ideal for families and anyone else who wants to streamline or gamify an otherwise boring and tedious move. 

It also makes an excellent gift for REALTORS® to provide to their clients, either to secure a listing or as a client appreciation gift at the close of escrow.
