No, we\u2019re not talking about meeting our<\/em> staff. (Although you can see a few lovely Yardi employee profiles here<\/a>.) Today we\u2019re talking about introducing your staff to your residents: how and why you should do it!<\/p>\n

Celebrating the employees that make your property a great place to live just makes sense. For one thing, it\u2019s a good team building exercise. For another, it brings life and personality to your communities. Your property is more than just a collection of buildings. It\u2019s a nice place to live, staffed by a group of people who really care. When you create that personal connection with both residents and prospects, you drive leases and increase retention.<\/p>\n

There are many ways you can share staff member stories with your audience. You might include a staff spotlight in your newsletter, showcase team photos on your Facebook page, or write an \u201cemployee of the month\u201d post on your blog. Or you can create an infographic like the one we made below using Canva<\/a> (it was easy, we promise) and share it everywhere\u2014from your social media channels to your move-in email.<\/p>\n
