Self Employed
January 2016 - October 2022 (6 years 10 months)
As a self-employed professional, I specialized in crafting tailored marketing strategies and collateral for real estate professionals. Leveraging my expertise in marketing and deep understanding of the real estate industry, I collaborated closely with clients to develop effective marketing plans that aligned with their unique goals and target audiences. My services encompassed the creation of engaging content, including brochures, flyers, digital ads, and social media campaigns, designed to showcase properties and attract potential buyers. I utilized Adobe Illustrator, InDesign, and Photoshop extensively in my work, leveraging these powerful tools to design captivating collateral such as brochures, flyers, and digital advertisements. Additionally, I crafted professional logos that reflected the unique identity and branding of each real estate professional or agency. Through my strategic approach and creative solutions, I helped real estate professionals enhance their brand presence, generate leads, and achieve their business objectives in a competitive market.
