Nationwide Brokerage Chain Transforms Agent Productivity
Discover how one of the nation's largest real estate firms empowered 5,000+ agents with AI-powered marketing tools, achieving 312% ROI and increasing agent retention by 28%.
The Challenge
As one of the nation's top 10 real estate firms with over 5,000 agents across 35 states, this enterprise faced complex challenges at scale:
Key Challenges:

- Market Competition: Tech-forward brokerages eroding market share in key metropolitan areas
