How Much Could Your Brokerage Save?
Use Case Example: Multi-office Real Estate Brokerage
175 agents between PA and NJ
The Challenge:
A Philadelphia-area brokerage was expanding at an unprecedented rate. However, this success introduced significant IT challenges. Their reliance on a Microsoft 365 subscription for email and productivity tools meant that each new agent added an unpredictable and variable cost to their monthly technology budget. The “per-seat” licensing model made it difficult to forecast expenses accurately.
Additionally, the administrative process for onboarding a new agent was slow and resource-intensive. John, the IT administrator, had to create new user accounts manually, assign licenses and configure settings for each agent, which delayed their access to essential tools. This administrative overhead meant that new agents couldn’t begin marketing properties or communicating with clients immediately, directly impacting their productivity and time to revenue.
The Solution:
MacguyverTech implemented a fixed-cost email infrastructure solution. The primary goal was to replace the variable monthly subscription model with a predictable, scalable, and cost-effective system. The solution also promised to automate and simplify the agent onboarding process, freeing up John’s time and ensuring new agents could become productive faster.
The Results:
- Reduced annual email costs by $52,500
- Eliminated 15+ hours of monthly administrative work
- Improved e-mail deliverability by 23%
- Accelerated new agent onboarding by 2 days.
