- Building a best-in-class sales operation through direct marketing, campaigns, and a sharp contact network
- Conducting viewings, valuing property, and negotiating the best possible outcomes for clients
- Overseeing marketing, PR, and brand presence for every listing
- Staying ahead of local market trends and using data to sharpen strategy
- Cross-selling across departments and managing client relationships beyond the sale
