Can Maintenance Repair Your Reputation? – 60 minutes
Session description
Maintenance team members are a large part of the resident’s experience, sometimes even underestimated. They are the face of the community stepping into a resident’s homes and personal space. One thing we know: a community’s maintenance team can impact your reputation through resident reviews, leaving a resident to share a positive or negative experience. They are your eyes and ears of the community; their face is the one residents see more often than the community team.

Online vs. Reality: Don’t be a Catfish Community – 60 minutes
Session description
Today’s renter is more likely to do up front research before contacting a community. Searching a community’s website wanting the website to be a wealth of information and not an advertisement. Renters “trust in website” has drastically decreased from 35% to 9%. Why the dramatic drop? Renters are trusting a community’s website less as a community’s online presence is found to be saying one thing online, but showcasing something different in reality. How do you make sure everything on your website reflects what a renter will see when they tour a community? Join us as we deliver actionable ways on how to live up to your community’s online story.

Lia, I cannot say enough good things about the class you presented for the Atlanta Apartment Association on 'Reputation Management’. The rating and review examples you shared were great and gave the class a lot to think about. The presentation itself was full of incredibly useful information and recommendations for the participants.
