Ever miss out on great sites because your inbox is full of real estate opportunities to organize and analyze from franchisees, developers, and brokers? If you just screamed “YES!”, you’ll love Site Submit–the latest innovation from Sitewise Analytics!
This game-changing solution streamlines the way real estate teams at multi-unit brands collect, analyze and greenlight site submissions and solicitations from developers, brokers and franchisees.
What is Site Submit?
In the front, Site Submit’s map-based webpage form has an intuitive interface that makes it easy for external parties to submit site details that are relevant to your real estate site evaluation and execution metrics.
On the backend, that site submission data feeds directly into your Sitewise Platform, where it’s instantly scored against your Sitewise predictive site evaluation model. Don’t have a model yet? No problem! Sites can be evaluated against key data metrics like demographics, traffic, etcetera.
Set alerts for your team based on frequency or urgency so you can jump on great real estate opportunities before the other guys. Plus, you can even notify the submitter straight from Sitewise Platform!
The result? Your brand gets a centralized, user-friendly system to organize site proposals that eliminates boring, manual tasks. Talk about accelerating the development pipeline!
Why Site Submit?
Whether your multi-unit brand has a corporate or franchise structure, your real estate team probably collaborates with external parties to find sites that work for your brand.
Regional Real Estate Managers at corporate brands scour the country to find lease and land opportunities that fit into the market plan (with a little help from developers and brokers.) Meanwhile, franchised brands get site submissions from local franchisees who scour their development areas for potential locations.
Either way, the traditional site submission and evaluation process is rife with inefficiencies, like:
- Receiving site proposals from external parties through scattered emails, calls, and messages, means you have to organize, enter and analyze data manually.
- Chasing down missing information from incomplete, inconsistent submissions causes delays to the site evaluation process.
- Analyzing site data and running sales forecast models manually for each individual site submitted takes time, which means you could lose great sites to your competitors.
Site Submit eliminates these roadblocks, delivering a centralized, user-friendly site submission process that makes life easier for internal teams and their external real estate partners alike.
How does it work?
1. Customize your data collection
We work with your team to determine the data fields you want to collect from external parties. That includes everything from site characteristics to land and building features, deal structure, and trade area metrics that fit in with your strategic real estate roadmap.
Here’s a small sample of the types of information you can include:
| Site characteristics | Building features | Deal structure | Trade area |
Parcel size Parking Drive thru capability Visibility Access | Architecture type Square footage Occupancy Signage opportunities | Purchase Ground lease Lease Sub-lease Pricing Availability dates | Density Demographics Traffic Psychographics Point of Interest Land & Construction Shopping Centers |
2. Build an on-brand webpage
Next, we build a webpage that captures your branding and the data you want to collect. The intuitive mapping interface and customized form fields make it easy for developers, brokers and franchisees to give you all the standardized details you want in the format you need.
3. Automated data integration
Once submitted, each proposal flows seamlessly into the Sitewise Platform. This eliminates the need for manual organization and data entry, ensuring every submission is ready for your team to review.
4. Automated analysis & sales forecasts

We can set it up to show you the data metrics that matter to your brand until you’re ready for Predictive Analytics.
5. Scheduled alerts
Finally, the Sitewise Squad customizes the urgency, frequency and distribution of notifications and alerts. This keeps your estate team informed about new submissions and high-priority sites, so your brand can stay on top of high-value opportunities and maintain a competitive advantage.
