Marketing strategy:
While many people hope one day to purchase their own home, cultural barriers and shortages in
affordable housing are just two of the issues that can prevent these dreams from materializing. Reed
Properties is working to keep these dreams alive. Hiring more broker will not only define success by the
number of units closed and sales volume but also by whether people were helped in the process.
The office environment we will be providing will be productively arranged yet inviting to the agent as
well as the client. There will be a location in the office each day with a daily marketing routine/schedule
to follow. Agents have the opportunity to be guided each day through a marketing plan to gain clients.
They may choose to follow the guidelines and training provided or they may follow their own daily
routines. We will be supplying a program allowing the new agents to earn more than the average real
estate agent by providing guidance and stability.
