My experience with Alicia has been great, she touches base every two weeks, shows me some things I can be doing. The whole parkbench experience has been good in that it has fast tracked my knowledge of the area and allowed me to get to know some great people. I haven't gotten any leads from it yet. I know St.A is a tough area b/c of all the RE agents here, so we will see. Either way, it's a fun experience eventhough hard work.

My wife and I joined with Parkbench.com about a month ago now. We are liking the site and company's platform. We have done about 7 interviews so far and it is helping us get some great connections with other local business owners. We even had one place that we interview said they liked it so much and were getting great response from it that they asked if we could come back and cover a comedy event that they were featuring. It definitely takes some time to meet with the businesses and conduct interviews but is a great relationship building model. If you are looking to become a local leader in your community make the jump to Parkbench.com

Fantastic support from the team, particularly Alicia my coach who I meet with now weekly to answer questions and keep me accountable. Parkbench is a fantastic way to meet people and give something of value back to the community.

I am the Local Leader for Asheville and Arden, Nor...

I am the Local Leader for Asheville and Arden, North Carolina and am beginning my second year with Parkbench. When I was first contacted by them a year ago and presented the opportunity that they offer, I was told by Silas on the sales team, that Parkbench was not for everybody; that only certain types of Realtors would be able to make appropriate use of their platform. How true this has turned out to be! After a year of, honestly, not making the best use of Parkbench (8-10 interviews), I can say with certainty that, while I was not the best local leader, I got more out of it than I put into it.

Part of what held me back was that, while I loved the idea of building relationships and providing value on the front end, I could not shake the inherent urge to see each business owner I contacted and interviewed as strictly a source of potential referrals, i.e. money. I am really big on authenticity and my inability to reconcile this conflict not only hindered my Parkbench experience but nearly drove me out of the real estate industry altogether.

I was unsure that would renew my subscription to Parkbench.

And then I talked to Ray...

He singlehandedly talked me into it without selling me. He did this by listening and taking genuine interest in my situation and what was driving my hesitancy. He also helped me to actually articulate what my problem was and develop some action steps to develop an appropriate solution.

The team (and especially Ray) at Parkbench is amazing! Iv'e been to their office in Toronto and they're the real deal. Now for a little soul searching.. If you REALLY see yourself as being in the relationship and community building business and not in it solely for the money or the next transaction, (insert long and hard thought here) then Parkbench is an amazing opportunity! If, however, you are thinking about this as just another fancy marketing ploy to get your name and face out there, trust me this deal is not for you. You will see yourself as "working for free" rather than investing your time and if your heart's not in it, it will show in the form of inconsistency and resentment.

That's the biggest thing Parkbench did for me. It helped to point out my own inconsistencies; where my actions and motives were not quite matching my values and where I was lacking faith in my own principles. I don't think this was their intent and it was a bitter pill to swallow, but I think I got it. This year, Parkbench will be my tool of contribution with which I will build authentic relationships and community with people and businesses without expectations for anything in return.

Thank you Grant, Cam, Ray and everyone else at Parkbench! I look forward to making the most of the next 12 months!

I am a very new agent, three months into my new career before COVID19 hit. I was completely paralyzed and shut down. I was at my lowest about how to move forward when Rashad from Parkbench reached out to me. He began to describe the mission and vision of parkbench and its ambassador sponsors. I nearly cried. It was like hearing me repeat my business plan but on a much larger scale with a larger reach than I could do on my own. After three calls with Rashad and deep conversation with husband, I took the plunge and sponsored two areas in my city.

It has only been three weeks since my parkbench world began, but I have received more training and support as a new agent than I have had in the five months from anywhere else. I feel like I have a purpose and a plan. My community is receptive and excited to engage. Thank you parkbench for giving me a presence in the community and a way to make a difference. To allow me to live my true purpose of being of service to others. Thank you to Jessie, Grant, and Matthew who have guided so much of my experience. I am happy to be a part of this family.

First, hats off to Sydney Crawford, our On-Boarding Instructor, Motivator, Advisor and the first person since Cole that we connected with once taking the plunge and joining Parkbench. Cole Rowden, by the way, is awesome too! Very nice guy. He was our sales specialist and was super helpful. Sydney got us started with our initial website and how-to training and helped to build confidence. Everyone we ve connected with has been super helpful, listens and responds, answers questions cheerfully and honestly. We had our first call with Ray Recek last week. Ray is all over the place. You can find him just about anywhere. There is no shortage of training with this company and Ray is one of the leaders. I can tell we are going to love working with him. Lastly, as an option, Parkbench will post local news and events to your social media sites. You can adjust the amount of postings so you don t overwhelm. Since we are not the most devoted social media posters (we were terrible at it), linking our social media sites has been impressive and a relief to us. The cost to have another company manage our social media was not cost effective and therefore just didn t happen. Parkbench does this as part of our membership and does an awesome job at it. Totally recommend this option. Unless you are all over your media sites everyday - let Parkbench do the work for you. We are impressed and you will be too. Our overall first look with the Parkbench experience has been 5 stars!

Parkbench has been amazing with the support. There attitude is a can do or let s figure out how to get it done attitude and has never been no we can t do that . Plus what Parkbench has done for the notoriety in my business has been invaluable.

Not happy with a company as unethical as this one who refused to refund my wife after Hurricane Michael changed the course of her career. She had not even used their website at all. Gimmicky training overload no one has time for and anyone motivated and professional enough can do this themselves without paying nearly what they charge for it.

The worst lead generation concept! On the phone they'll make it sound like it's great but after you sign and get the full concept you realize how stupid and impossible it is to pull. Once you paid they'll never refund your money no matter what. Be careful and stay away.

Two great things, the concept: unique, provide a platform to businesses and the support, they give the latest technology with old school teaching and training. If you are a new Realtor come get the right way to start off, if you are a seasoned Realtor like me, come catch up to the technology blend with service. This is a brilliant business plan. They aren't about how many zipcodes they can get but how much they can do what they do best so Realtors can work deeply for their community!

What a great experience working with Parkbench! Not only do they understand that real estate is about building relationships, but they've created a community platform that really delivers to residents. Everyone at Parkbench that I've dealt with from Braeden to Alicia to Tom to Grant have been enthusiastic people who really love what they do and that matters - their energy is contagious! Highly recommended! Take your business to the next level with a personal approach.

I am having a lot of fun building this simple to use site. It s getting me out there and asking strangers to let me feature them in video. Also getting me in front of the camera. Definitely learning a lot and having the time of my life.

This is a great new platform I was introduced to by a local contact, Donna Mechura. She interviewed me and gave me the opportunity to establish my business on Parkbench. The set-up was fairly simple. I did have to learn how to add photos, but it wasn't a huge learning curve. There was an issue with a coupon I created, but Tom and the team hopped right on it. I do have to say I appreciated the positive attitude and service oriented motivation! I look forward to this platform's growth and being able to serve wherever I can!

Parkbench is truly a full service company. There are no issues that cannot be overcome when dealing with their courteous and professional staff! Thanks Lorna for all your patience. I have made some great new friends in my own community that I would not have otherwise had the pleasure of meeting. I am looking forward to many more!

Parkbench is an incredibly easy platform from which to establish credibility within your community. I worked with Tyler Salmon and his team to create a website that is hyper local and establishes our office and its Agents as the go-to Brokerage for our area.

So far so good! They have a ton of helpful material, they are super easy to get on the phone. They have clear-cut rules on their money back guarantee, oh yeah they have a money back guarantee. The lady assigned to me Jessie Olsen has been nothing short of wonderful!

Had an interview with some 'Aurora Foote' today, which she rescheduled with no notice. Never responded when i asked why it was rescheduled.

Waited 30 minutes for the 'phone interview' anyway, she never rang again.

Very unprofessional, bit of a joke of a company to work for it sounds like.

My support Coach, Alicia has been amazing and patient during our weekly calls. I don t alway catch on! Teaching me how to Blog, be myself and how to say it.
The social media post as to what s happening in the area is always helpful. I m too busy to search out what s going on in the local Comminity.

I had the most delightful pleasure of meeting Amanda Abergel at realtor quest. We developed a really good relationship right off the bat. I love that because that is my 100% preferred style of running my business. It very quickly felt like we were old childhood friends. I felt very comfortable discussing everything with her and thou I don t doubt this service is unreal. She is prob the reason I signed up the same day. We even got to share in an inspirational moment watching Gary Vaynerchuk. I m so excited to take my business in another direction.

Parkbench has given me an excellent way to better connect with my local business community and fellow chamber of commerce members. For example, from the day my site went live, Parkbench provided me with a local business directory. This provided value to my prospective interviewees and gave me a talking point that helped me reach out to them.

I have also leveraged my existing community Facebook page, which has 2,600 followers. Parkbench stories automatically show up on my Facebook page (called Hastings Happenings), and then link readers back to my Parkbench site. I highly recommend Parkbench!

Parkbench has been a great way to introduce myself to the local buisness owners in a non-sales fashion, helping to bring them buisness as well as start a dialog with them and possibly start new friendships. My most recent interview we were chatting afterward and I actually created buisness for my parents when talking with the buisness owner I was able to connect them and help both buisnesses meet a need.

Alicia has been a great help to me. So much to learn, I would be lost without her. She is also very patient, understanding & approachable. I can ask her anything. Most of all she is very friendly.

Parkbench is an AWESOME service/company. Although I've recently joined, I feel like I'm family. The folks go above and beyond to on board me and make the process fun and without hassle. I have had direct contact with Cameron, Darren, and Ray, and each time I have a question, they get back to me right away. These guys are extremely responsive, attentive, and pure fun to work with. It is rare to find genuine caring customer service like what I've found at Parkbench! This testimonial was unsolicited and I actually asked Cameron how to go about posting this review.

This platform is not for the lazy agent! If you are willing to put the work in and work at it by improving on your skills, you will see the value. The client support is second to none and the platform is easy to use. I will say that I can see my online presence in social media growing after only a month.

parkbench has helped me in establishing myself as a realtor and in particular Pedram being my mentor has really being a great shot in the arm. I highly recommend parkbench as it is a very useful tool.

Parkbench is a great resource for our community, and I am proud to be a sponsor and contributor to the content we provide the people of Napa, CA. I also want to highlight their excellent support staff, who continually provide me and the business owners of Napa with solutions. Even if it's a short-term fix until an issue is resolved with the site, they always have a workaround, even if it means more work for them. They truly care about servicing my neighborhood.

I have really appreciated the Parkbench platform and system. My favorite part about the experience so far has been the coaching calls and goal setting. My coach, Lorna, is positive and encouraging and gives me practical advise to move forward making connections in my community.

This business unfortunately acts as a predatory business to local real estate agents, ensuring that with use of a "system" they can generate leads for you. Unfortunately, even after attempting multiple times to schedule interviews, and engaging in conversations with ParkBench - and their unfortunately useless coaching calls - they simply aren't able to preform. I disputed my transaction with my credit card issuer and their response was predatory in nature and blamed me that their systems did not work. I look forward to the long dispute to get my money back after their failure to provide appropriate service and cease their predatory business model.

If you're looking to spend your money on leads, genuinely pay someone who has a proven track record. When you sign up with Parkbench, you become a parkbench employee - they harass you and harass you to get them interviews to push their brand forward. Nothing is actually about the agent.

I have signed up with Parkbench to develop my business as a long term relationship and community concious service.I am very happy so far, although it is a lot of work specially when I am on my own on this.
What I have discovered though, is the exponential power of people skills and relationships. I have been a corporate financial professional being more attached to numbers than people for years and the Parkbench system has pushed my boundaries and taught me a totally different way to do business.
Parkbench team is awesome and very responsive to all my requests. I have being enjoying making videos and improving my skills as I go. The tutorials are awesome and help me a lot. I should interview people more often but Winter here in Toronto has not been collaborating at all. But I should not use that as an excuse, right?

I am so excited about what Parkbench is doing. Being a Buffini follower this whole system totally resonates with me. Its all about relationships and living the good life! I totally LOVE this!

This is our first full week with Parkbench and we are thrilled to have had four business interviews and have scheduled five additional interviews for next week! Not only does Parkbench have excellent customer service, the business owners we speak with thus far are excited that there Business will have additional exposure in hopes of increases there business!
It s a great feeling to give back to our local communities in knowing that there exposure will increase as there is no cost to the business owners! It s a great way to connect and build relationships and it s a great way to help the local areas.
It s only been one full week with Parkbench and my husband and I work as a team together in real estate and the feedback we are receiving from business owners is that they are grateful and excited as well as we are!
Thank you Parkbench for your vision as we can clearly see that it s all about relationships building and helping other businesses to succeed in our local communities!

This is a very high pressure company that sells you on the service of creating a neighborhood community where you can interview business owners and post their business on this website. Park bench sales staff sells it to you as they will handle all of the promoting of this, via Facebook social media sending newsletters to your clients for you. However in truth they will do none of this and you find this out after you pay an exorbitant fee , get into the website and speak to their "onboarding specialist".. I paid $3,500 for basically a static website and they refused to refund my money, stating that they gave me a website with my Town's name on it and they fulfilled their obligation. NO, They sold me a service which they never intended on fulfilling. They claim and sell to you they have a money back guarantee, however it is full of so many stipulations that they do not inform you of on the sales call that could hardly ever be met. The sales rep " went over the contract" on the phone however he never mentioned there was no refunds he never mentioned it was a final sale just kept reiterating the money back guarantee! Intentionally left these out and misled me. I have spoken to a dozen other Realtors who the same thing has happened to. Some quotes were up to $7,000! $4,000 $4,500 $3,500 - they were all misled and lost all their money!! Stay away from this company!

I had been working with Parkbench for a little a month when I attended the NAR Conference in Chicago a few weeks ago. I had the honor of meeting the CMO of Parkbench, Grant Findlay-Shirras.

My husband knew very little about Parkbench and Grant spent a good amount of time educating him about all the fantastic features and the concept of Parkbench. Since returning home, my husband has become a huge supporter for me in building the relationship and using Parkbench to promote and market my community as well as my business.

It was a true honor to meet Grant and have the opportunity to experience a one on one. Thank you Grant for all the lengthy conversations you had with my husband Donald Baker and me. We also appreciate all the encouragement you provided.

I would highly recommend Parkbench not just as a business tool but as the relationship builder for their community they live and work in.

Matthew & Ryan have been incredible during the sign-up and onboarding phase. They're flexible, eager to assist in any way and very knowledgeable about their service. I'm excited to hit the ground running!

I appreciate the concept of PARKBENCH. The tools gives me the confidence that I can add value to the community and local businesses. Alicia has been amazing walking me through my new website. She is very knowledgeable. Thanks to Alicia for continuing to motivate me week by week and giving me new tasks to improve my business.

Do not waste your money! They do not respond. I have called , emailed and messaged them over the last week because they are posting "Local" information from a completely different state on my Facebook! I asked them to stop and they do not. Newsletters go out with this incorrect information. I also paid for 2 sites but they use the same information for both sites.

Jessie is our technical point of contact for our sites we sponsor. She is always offering helpful advice and tips and tricks for cross marketing. We have learned a lot since we started sponsoring sites from not only Jessie, but Matt and Grant as well.

Sal C with Parkbench is slowly but surely helping open new territory for me in this thing called video interviewing. Being one who needs to 'see' it i one transitional piece from beginning to end, Sal had the super idea of doing a join.me session and simply showing me the steps . Otherwise the barriers in my technology savvy would have presented so many roadblocks. I can now breath easy as I see a way opening before me that did not exist before. Thanks Sal, for your patience and expertise! Think I am going to enjoy this newfound experience!

I am a new member of ParkBench. I love it & what we represent. As a Realtor it is amazing what is offered with our listings & neighbor hood news. I am looking forward to learning how to use it efficiently. Yes, & I have a good coach to help me with that.. Awesome!

Parkbench is a site that I highly recommend to anyone who wants to build comradery within their Community and in turn "grow their own business". I am a Realtor and I love this program and the leadership they offer to their clients. Parkbench has a highly trained, motivated staff of professionals, who will help you with any issue that you might have getting started and with ongoing training. My coach, Amanda, has been awesome. I am not a computer whiz, but she has been SO helpful and patient with me. The interviews with business owners has been a breeze for me because God has blessed me and I can talk to anyone and make them feel comfortable. Computers, well that's a different issue and I have needed all the help I can get. Parkbench is at the top of my list as far as helping me grow my Real Estate business while helping others in our Community benefit from this awesome adventure and the opportunities they will have because of what Parkbench offers. I highly recommend to anyone who is interested in making their business "shine" to sign up and experience what they offer with this program. Minnette Moreno, Realtor with Keller Williams.

This is an organization that has it all.

This is an organization that has it all.
Professional, personal, and caring team of individuals who truly want your your business to succeed while keeping it socially connected to your community and surrounding areas.
Thank you Amanda and the team you work with. From my interview with Lori Videan - Realty One Dockside, to the phone interview with Amanda to acclimate me with the tools available to me from Parkbench Inc. I am certain that my Hole In The Wall Tattoo studio has a great network behind it.
Your passion and dedication to your industry makes doing business with you an absolute pleasure.
If I could offer a ten star rating I would. Happy

Since joining the Park Bench family, I have gone through many different learning experiences. Lets be honest, I am a person who is set in their ways. However, Alicia has been awesome in getting me to try new methods regarding advertising. My biggest goal is to get the Homes for Heroes program rolling in the Delaware Valley. This is an opportunity for a realtor to give back to the five groups of people who are the back bone of our community during crisis and everyday activities.
A special thanks to Ken Pitts (Keystone Funding) a lender who I have worked with for 20 years. He is from Delaware County and invited me to become active in this group. 9/11 attacked our very being. Unfortunately a good friend lost his son in the towers on 9/11. It was so difficult watching his family go through this horrific situation. We can never let this situation ever happen again. This is why I joined Homes for Heroes and Park Bench is helping me to realize my goal.

I really enjoy Parkbench. It's a great system for building relationships and community and adding value to local businesses. Plus, the website itself and staff is excellent! I look forward to my calls with the Parkbench staff! They are super helpful and tech savvy. They make me look good! I feel so on top of my game when I can recommend my community site to someone or refer a local business by sharing a link to one of my interviews. The interviews were a bit challenging to do at first, but once I got in my groove I was able to relax and have more fun. Now I am loving each interview, seeing these local businesses as referral partners, and really getting to know my neighbors! It's such a positive thing for everyone!! And my real estate business is growing!!

This is the most awesome company and support team!...

This is the most awesome company and support team! I could not be happier to have them as partners in showcasing how our neighborhoods are the best they can be! Thank you for everything and I look forward to many years together!

I just want to say that I love parkbench. I am still learning but with Alicia's help I'm getting it done. In fact everyone has been so helpful. You can tell they want you to be successful. I look forward to all the new contacts I can make by sponsoring this great community website here in Redding CA.

Parkbench has been a lot of fun. It is sometimes difficult for me to put myself out there in unfamiliar situations, but I have found that every single interview I have done has resulted in a new relationship that I can continue to cultivate. It is really easy to sit down with someone to talk about the city that I love and get to know about their business or contributions to the community. Real Estate is about nurturing relationships and Parkbench is the perfect platform to do that. Before my last interview, the business owner did her homework and knew more about me than I did about her, and she was prepared to ask me about real estate after the interview without me even having to bring it up. I am going to their home this week for a listing presentation, and hopefully sell them a piece of property to build a new home on. I am really excited to see where my new relationships take me and my business.

This concept is great, the staff are fantastic, and there's no reason why they won't be able to help your business (with a little effort on your part). We are just getting started on utilizing all the features Parkbench offers, but Alicia Blackwood has been amazing so far--thanks Alicia!

When Thomas Gaisford with Parkbench called to confirm our appointment, I had already decided to cancel it. I am so glad he didn t just accept my cancellation. I mistakenly thought Parkbench was a website service. When I learned how Parkbench showcases me alongside leaders in my community, it was exactly what I had been looking for! His friendly service oriented approach kept me engaged in the call. The support and training teams have been responsive and helpful. Can hardly wait to see how this platform will transform and grow my business over the next year!

Parkbench has given me structure (a business plan around building relationships), a platform, and a purpose. Let me explain. Instead of chasing leads and making notes in several different platforms and note pads I can now go to 1 platform that houses all the aspects of building a relationship-based real estate business. Here s the value I offer to my local community:

News- I share local info pertinent to my community

Events- I share events I think my clients would be interested in

Deals- I allow my business owners to share their best incentives

Interviews- I make local business owners famous in my community

Local Directory- I can see and communicate with all the business owners in my community

Listings- I can publish, update and share my listings with my community

No other company has enabled me to grow my business like Parkbench My community knows that I care about them and their business first, and that s the anchor that will grow my business. I look forward to growing with Parkbench!

Great company with a lot of new and creative ideas! Best support I ve had with any website in all my 14 years of real estate. Kiki is awesome! Thank you for all your support. I definitely recommend Parkbench to other Realtors!

Piss Poor , on getting pushed to buy and I was seriously considering , I told the sales person I will get back to you in a day , as I need to analysis the program , she asked me what is your scale of interest , I said its 5 as of now . On that she said may be you are not a right fit for the system .

Very 3rd grade sales approach . I could not pick her call so she called in 5 mnts from a different number .

First they said its exclusive territories/communities , when I said the community I work is not available , on that I was advise - oh you could take a neighbouring community and you can still interview business of the community you work ( though some other person has paid for its exclusivity ) as long as that business is serving people from other communities as well . OF COURSE every small Retail or Service Oriented industry is catering to people from various communities. Then How is this exclusive .

Please ask for a trial ..........every Genuine IT SERVICE company dose that . I am thank full that I got told you are not FIT FOR IT.

Tyler at Parkbench and the entire support staff have been amazing.

The platform allows for me to have a value added purpose for contacting the business owners and decision makers in my community. Instead of me going out and searching randomly for a reason to contact them and get to know them, I have something of value to give them, which in turn positions me and a leader in our community.

By providing our community with a ton of value, local hot spots, organizations, and events coming up, I am developing name / face recognition. In addition to that the business owners and community organizers, turn around and help me promote my business as well.

This is a win, win, win platform.
WIN - The business owners get additional FREE (to them) exposure.
WIN - The community gets relevant and important information allowing them to get to know their neighbors and have a stronger bond with one another
WIN - I get name/face recognition and referrals from others in our area, resulting in closed transactions.

Thanks again to the Parkbench team.

This is an amazing opportunity to be the ambassador of my community! Kiki and the entire staff at Parkbench are amazing. I would highly recommend Parkbench to anyone who is looking to get their name out there!

I have been using Parkbench for 3 months and am finding it to be an effective tool for me as a real estate broker. I obtained my license shortly after relocating to a new area, and was looking for ways to help me learn the area and meet people quickly. Parkbench provided a natural avenue to accomplish that. The business owners I contact for interviews are appreciative of (and surprised at) the fact that there is no charge to them for the opportunity to promote their business. In addition to being enjoyable on a personal level to meet and get to know so many great people, it increases my ability to serve my clients by providing them with information about the communities.
I have obtained several solid leads for real estate transactions through my interviews. I am not a pushy salesperson, so I appreciate how easy it is to work real estate into the conversation in the course of the interviews.
Technical support has been quick to respond when needed and extremely helpful. Kudos to Darren Ly.
My coach, Amanda Piron, is extremely supportive and has taken a personal interest in me and my business success. She also responds quickly when I have questions or requests aside from our regularly scheduled calls.

This is a wonderful platform to use for growing your business and to help really get to know business owners in your neighbourhood. This is a win win to build relationships that will result in mutual referral business and exposure to the community. The support team is spot on and ready to help with whatever you need.

The Parkbench staff is very responsive to my requests for help. If I need anything, they say, "Let me find the right person to help." Then they follow through. I love working with this energetic group of folks.

What a great way to partner to be the hub of your community! Parkbench support, ambition and technology is awesome. The best way to get more business is to lift up others and make it happen, they will never forget you. Love everyone on the team!

The more involved I get with Parkbench, the more I realize what an amazing opportunity I have for business success. The support, through coaching, webinars, Grant s course, the follow up from the coaches after sessions, the staff, so knowledgeable and dedicated, is just phenomenal. Way more than I had ever imagined. Building my community website is a wonderfully exciting project, and building relationships in doing so, I m certain of much more success, both, my real estate business and personally. Thank you Parkbench, very much.
