For our April Virtual Networking Event we shine the spotlight on Christine Williams, Founder of Smarter Property Investing, based in the City of Whittlesea.

Whilst Christine has a strong real estate background, her business Smarter Property Investing is only six years old. In the early days Christine had limited resources to market her business and because of her industry, often experienced long lag times between initial interactions with a prospect to securing them as a client.

Christine will be sharing a simple concept that she has used in her business to generate more sales and how it, with a little effort, could generate more sales for your business too.
