IMPREV™ incorporated in November of 2000, and acquired the assets and
intellectual property of Renwick Development Group ("RDG"), owned by IMPREV
founder, Renwick Congdon. RDG was founded in 1994, and launched its first
product, Flyerware, in February 1995. Flyerware Version 3.0 was a finalist
for "New Product of the Year" at the 1996 National Association of Realtors®
Annual Convention and Trade Show. Over 15,000 real estate agents across
North America, Europe, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa used
Flyerware. In 1997, Flyerware was acquired by iOwn and was reacquired by
RDG in early 1999. Work then began on the web-based version of the
application. In November 2000, the company incorporated and was renamed
IMPREV to better reflect the breadth of the new product's features. IMPREV's
web-based Personal Design and Publishing Platform™ made its debut in July of
2001. The Online Design Center™ was quickly embraced by successful real
estate professionals nationwide. With a reputation for providing
agency-quality marketing solutions, IMPREV clients continuously testify to
the power of these professional solutions to enhance their image, impress
their clients, expand their sphere and increase their business. IMPREV delivered its first private labeled, fully branded Marketing Center
to OKI Data in October 2002. Since then, similar sites have been built for a
number of companies representing over 50,000 agents. In 2003 IMPREV's
primary business changed from providing a retail application to building and
hosting private labeled Marketing Centers. In 2004, IMPREV's
state-of-the-art technology was selected as a finalist for an Inman
Innovator Award, and won Top Product of 2004 for Design and Multimedia
Marketing Materials. It has been praised for its ease of use and high
quality standards by industry notables such as Dave Beson, Michael Russer
(Mr. Internet®), Allen Hainge (Cyberstars™), and Terri Murphy, to name a
few. IMPREV continues to invest in client-centric R&D that is focused on
increasing innovative design options, remaining value-priced, and delivering
new services that benefit the client. |
