The Guild of Property Professionals has started its annual UK-wide tour this autumn, hosting Regional Meetings to connect Members and introduce new business tools. The events provide opportunities for networking and sharing information among independent estate agents.
This year’s meetings include the launch of The Guild Marketing Packs and the national magazine Residence. Each property marketed through the packs will feature a dedicated page in Residence, giving Members a publication option for both local and national audiences.
The agenda will also cover business topics such as consumer behaviour, commercial strategies including upfront fees, updates to The Guild’s Associate Scheme, and the A-Z of Suppliers, a directory of partners offering discounts and potential revenue growth opportunities.
Iain McKenzie, CEO of The Guild of Property Professionals, commented, “Our regional tour is a fantastic opportunity to connect directly with our Members across the country. It’s our chance to listen to their experiences, share industry insights, and equip them with the tools they need to thrive. This year, we are particularly excited to unveil The Guild Marketing Packs, a game-changing initiative that will empower our Members to deliver an even more sophisticated and effective service to their clients.”
He added, “In an ever-evolving property market, staying ahead requires continuous innovation and a strong support network. These meetings are designed to address the practical, day-to-day challenges and opportunities our Members face. From optimising revenue streams to leveraging our network of trusted suppliers, our goal is to ensure every Guild Member has the resources and knowledge to be the go-to agent in their area.”
