Recent Accomplishments
Quickly became invaluable to the firm by focusing on building client relationships, creating an extensive database to streamline workflow and also valuable spreadsheets to track agents and clients. The use of these spreadsheets were especially vital to the firm because it allowed instant insight into the business, an ability to determine potential loss of clients or acknowledgment of top clients, and also the ability to view trends between years. In addition to the database and analytical spreadsheets I was also able to contribute a number of documents designed to help the firm grow. Some such documents were designed to increase Google reviews, add additional value to services, and reduce the time consuming issue during tax time of requests for lost paperwork. It also was quite common for clients to request to meet me at the closing table to express their appreciation; I work tirelessly throughout the closing process to ensure an amazing experience and often exceeded the expectations of my position.
