1. SELF DISRUPTION
HOW THE REAL ESTATE INDUSTRY CAN
PROTECT ITSELF FROM THREATS

2. Hello!
My name is Daniel.
CEO/CTO of FLOWFACT.

3. FLOWFACT is a Real Estate
Marketing Automation platform.
Our mission is to improve the real
estate experience.

4. We are 30+ years in the real estate
industry.

5. We because the fate of FLOWFACT
and the fate of brokers are intimately
entwined.

6. 60%
of CRM Listings on IS24 are from
FLOWFACT customers

7. There are a lot of things going on that
threaten to disrupt our industry.

8. Regulatory.
Demographic.
Technological.

9. Threat #1 Regulatory
We're an easy target. Much of the value
we provide to the transaction is hidden
from the consumer.

10. Threat #2 Demographic
Germany is getting older and in the
midst of an intergenerational wealth
transfer. What happens at the climax?

11. Threat #3 Technological
Every year, new proptechs and
technology come on the market that
reduces the need for the classic broker.

12. Ouch.

13. 25%
of German brokers will exit the market
over the next 5 years

14. More and more participants use these
driving forces to realign the market.

15. Have you heard about hybrid brokers?

16. Both PropTechs and Incumbents are
pushing closer to the transaction,
closer to the customer

18. Disruption is inevitable because
technology and progress are inevitable

19. Disruption is inevitable because
demographic shifts are inevitable

20. Disruption is inevitable because
politics are inevitable

21. The question is who survives and who
gains from disruption?

22. The bad news is we are particularly ill
suited to defend against this because of
how fragmented we are...

23. ...but there's some good news also...

24. It turns out, there are other industries
that have gone through this before.

25. Hello!
My name is Daniel.
I come from FinTech.

26. Community Financial Institutions
also faced a potential existential
realignment because of...

27. Regulatory.
Demographic.
Technological.

28. Financial crisis.
Populist backlash
Politicians eager to capitalize.

29. Community banks were caught in the
regulatory crossfire, compressing their
margins and disrupting their business

30. Payment disruptors and online lenders
were further putting margin pressure
by disintermediating the consumer
relationship

31. And finally, the demographic time
bomb.

32. How did they respond to these threats?
What blueprints can we intuit?

33. Blunted the populist drive for punitive
regulation by massively increasing
the perceptible value to the
customer/consumer.

34. Value added services such as
Personal Finance Management and
offered advisory and consulting.

35. Blueprint #1 Invest in Service
Unprofitable activities such a lettings
marketing suddenly seem strategic with
respect to your customer relationship

36. Digitalize their infrastructure with
analytics to know their customer.

37. Used automation to respond instantly
to requests when they could.

38. When they couldn't, they used their
platforms to optimize their time and
resources.

39. Blueprint #2 Invest in removing
Friction
Digitalization isn't about cost savings,
it's about making it easy for the
customer to continue to have a
relationship with you

40. They turned themselves into platforms
by teaming up and forming networks
so they could drive additional
customer value.

41. They used that network to deploy
technology that turned their pull
processes into push processes.

42. Blueprint #3 Invest in Nurturing
Share data and contacts so you can
always provide value to the consumer
even if you can't directly monetize the
interaction.

43. Finally, to address their shifting
demographics, they reinvented their
customer journey and digitalized
and automated their branches so they
could bridge the online and offline
world.

44. Blueprint #4 Optimize for the
customers of tomorrow
If you delay investment until the
customers of tomorrow become the
customers of today, you're already
behind the curve

45. So this is what we need to do...

46. Hello!
My name is Daniel.
I want to make the Real Estate
experience better.

51. FLOWFACT is working with a few
customers to pilot a completely digital
rental experience to offer value to

52. Next Step #3 Push
We need to use technology to reduce
our reliance on those who would
disintermediate us
