A robust digital strategy

We built the site functionality with three key audiences in mind.


Franchisees

We created a members area for Hunters’ franchisees which allows them to communicate with each other. It includes all documentation to support them in running their business and a live chat system.

The site uses a Concrete 5 CMS, which has drastically reduced the amount of admin time spent updating the site and gives franchisees the ability to manage their own branch pages.

Buyers

An improved search functionality makes finding suitable properties more intuitive with results shown in both a list and map based format.

Sellers

The new website makes the process of selling a property through Hunters is simple, with “book a valuation” call to actions prominent throughout the site, as well as integrations with third party applications enabling immediate valuations.
