[edit] History

Superlative was founded in Irvine, CA in 1997. Since then, Superlative has grown quickly over the past 10 years, culminating in a 40 % growth between 2005-2006.[2] It consists of departments dedicated to web design, programming, sales and marketing, IT, accounting, and management.

[edit] Products and Services

Superlative develops, designs, and hosts real estate-oriented web sites for thousands of brokerages and agents across the country. These web sites and related products fall under the following product lines:

[edit] Studio Agent

Studio Agent is the flagship product in Superlative's lineup. Customers buy the website, which Superlative hosts. The agent's site is based upon a preexisting Superlative template made by its design team, but still allows for customization by the user. This is both cosmetic and functional. Studio Agent also includes software for lead capture and management (possible clients for the Realtor), search engine optimization, buyer behavior tools, interactive feedback forms, etc.

[edit] Custom Sites

Superlative offers separate product lines for "custom" and "semi-custom" design work on web sites.

[edit] Studio Marketer

Studio Marketer is not a web site product, but rather a marketing "middleware." Made to optimize an agent or brokerage's lead management program, Studio Marketer offers marketing tools such as drip email (for contacting home buyers or sellers repeatedly) and flyer program. The product provides a way for agents to follow-up on potential leads gained from their Superlative website.

The company's roster of clients includes names such as:
Coldwell Banker
RE/MAX
