Insights

Strategic Partnerships Analyst

FOREWARN wins a meaningful distribution deal with the REALTOR® Alliance of Greater Cincinnati to provide free safety tools to 5,000+ members.

By making FOREWARN available at no cost to the REALTOR® Alliance of Greater Cincinnati’s more than 5,000 members, the company secures a broad, low-friction channel to increase adoption of its identity‑verification and safety services. The offering leverages FOREWARN’s phone‑number lookup and real‑time data capabilities to address a clear practitioner need: planning safer showings and validating client identities quickly.

Risks and dependencies include actual member activation rates and ongoing engagement; distribution alone does not guarantee paid conversions or higher ARPU. The arrangement strengthens product visibility and network effects if usage grows, but the financial impact depends on conversion from free access to paid tiers or upsells.

Watch for initial activation metrics and usage frequency among the 5,000+ members within the next 90 days to judge adoption momentum and any rollout guidance sent to members for activation.
