Compton Green is the largest independent real estate agency in western Melbourne. With a growing workforce of young sales associates who often work remotely in the field, it needed a modern and very simple way to more efficiently execute on projects and collaborate on activities surrounding the marketing and sale of properties. Compton Green selected tibbr for its intuitive mobile applications and subject-based approach, which ensures the right information, is delivered to the right person at the right time.

8. Our Business Challenge
o We needed a place where our agents:
- could ask questions
- have real-time conversations
- share important updates
- share files & multimedia: images, video, links, etc.
o Required some structure to remain organized
o Mobile Friendly
9. Email was the catch all.
Highly inefficient: conversations were cluttered and difficult to find.
21. o Integration with property management software
o Embedding additional workflows
o Geo-tagging for mobile tracking and auctioning

Give an intro to Compton Green
Your business is all about people, including the ones that work for you
The demographic is Gen-Y avg 31, so they expect tools to be easy, simple and like their personal apps
A little bit of landscape to the real estate businessTime is precious, providing accurate information is of the utmost importance
Our team is usually on the go, being able to access our tools is of utmost importance for them to be of any use
Without any other communication or collaboration tool, email became the catch all. Making it very ineffective.
We found over 20 Enterprise Social Networks. We through thorough online research we brought the number down to 3. Once we had a smaller group ESN to consider a few of our team began to investigate on line, registering to test sites, watching videos and reading blogs. It then came down to Yammer and Tibbr. I made the final decision based on the conversations I had with the providers.
