Brand Consulting and Brand Development
Real estate franchising has been around for 50 plus years. The past five have seen a dramatic impact on the industry as brokerages have been focused on staying in business and finding it hard to justify paying anything more than their existing overhead.
Legacy brands such as Prudential, CENTURY 21, Coldwell Banker, RE/Max and others find themselves REinventing themselves in order to meet the needs of today’s consumers, and thus, the brokerages that would affiliate with them. In the meantime, alternative models such as Keller Williams and Exit Realty have emerged and found their niche in the industry over the past 10 years. As the industry continues to evolve, other franchises are beginning to emerge focused on lifestyle, technology, coaching and other sub-segments of the industry that appeal to agents and brokers looking for differentiation and trying to position themselves as leaders in their markets.
PCMS Consulting has a significant amount of experience in this arena as our team has previously held senior leadership positions with a variety of international, national, and regional franchise organizations. Our clients hire us to help them decide whether to affiliate or not, to deal with their current franchisor, or to determine if their concept is “franchise-able”.
